Madame Ravencroft - The Gothic Vampyre Empress (FM 98.5 CKWR) Considered one of the greatest comebacks in Gothic music. The Skeletal Family hath returned like a banshee's scream with a new Darkwave style adding & improving upon their original 80's presentation in Goth's minds. A wise resurrection that works well for them! They HAVE caught Madame Ravencroft's eye to ensure they're heard on my FM Gothic radio show 'The Darkside'. I'd love to interview them. Congrats to the band for dusting themselves off and getting back into the groove BIG TIME! Favorite track: Beautiful Disaster.

Choppy Noodles Skeletal Family is one of those bands with an impressive, classic discography behind them as the Eternal box set that I bought with this demonstrates. The current singer, Anneka Latta, has an outstanding voice. The band have pushed their sound into a modern sounding, dramatic, emotive, impressive tour de force of great songwriting. I'd argue that this might be Skeletal Family's best album. If I am overshooting it, well, it easily sits amongst their very best work. Favorite track: What Are You Waiting For.

Cryptology

I like the subtle way in which the tracks connect to the album cover, making this resting maiden the center point — calm in the midst of storm. (Just my interpretation maybe but the cover gives extra depth to the music... a softer undertone). The image reminds me of ‘Annunciation’ by Dante G. Rossetti used in ‘Adrenaline’ music video. ‘Smoke and Mirrors’ puts me at peace with big disappointments — a bittersweet musical potion. nicabreeze

I've enjoyed The Wake since the 90s. The new album feels like a trip to right where they left off! Goth Rock at it's best! I can't wait to see where they go from here!! aklosowski22
