Volvere is already the fourth album of this Finnish group. I have never heard of them, perhaps because their earlier albums were published by somewhat small-ish labels. It's a shame, if they were as good as this one. Volvere is an impressive album. Their style is basically metal or heavy rock, with gloomy gothic rock tones. Their vocalist has a curious style, which I like and which brings lots of flavor for this album. If you're into goth metal, check this out, it's worth it. ****
Category: GothFall of the Leafe kicks ass. Simulateneous ass-whoopping and emotion. Incredible.

Their music is beyond this world... beautiful melodies, fantastic lyrics, just really atmospheric. I suggest everyone to check them out. And go see them live, that is a supernatural experience.
