| 1. Framed In Blood
Would you give me the key to the empire of bliss
Gimme a substance to dismiss
Everybody's searching for a difference
Everybody 's searching for deliverance
Gimme just another reason to live
Things you can resist
Things you cannot
They're just framed in blood

Самый лучший альбом за последний год в стиле готик-рок, который мне понравился. Хим отдыхает. Хотя и принимал участие в записи этого альбома. Вокал глубокий, мягкий, готичный. Мелодии не то, чтобы оригинальные, но заводные. Правда, вторая половина диска немного однообразна, но лишь немного. "Gothic Girl", "The Chair" - без сомнения лучшие готические клубные хиты. Клипы, снятые на эти песни, тоже неплохие, хотя и не отличаются большим разннобразием. Для справки - альбом был куплен еще в прошлом году, и до сих пор я его регулярно слушаю. |

Эти финские ребята держат нос по ветру. Начинав с позорного глэма, после успеха HIM они быстро скумекали, что к чему, и теперь переквалифицировались в готик-рокеров. Предпосылки к этому были уже на "Wasting The Dawn", и сейчас группа продолжает их развивать, при этом не забывая о прародителях стиля Sisters Of Mercy. Вот уже и добрая половина диска забита готик-роком, неплохим, но простоватым и недостаточно хитовым. Номера "Gothic girl" и "Bran-don Lee", считающиеся почему-то чуть ли не вершиной творчества The 69 Eyes, на поверку оказались весьма средними песнями. В этой связи на их фоне заметно выделяется трек "The chair", по большому счету, единственный хит "Blessed Be". Вторая же половина альбома содер-жит уже порядком приевшийся по прошлым работам группы goth'n'roll. |

Наверное, мне никогда не удасттся понять, почему все мои волосатые друзья металлисты и даже блэкеры восторгаются группой The 69 Eyes. Лично я не вижу в их музыке ничего интересного.
Доблестные финны протащились от творчества Guns 'N' Roses, Motley Crue, Cinderella и решили забацать нечто подобное, но, к несчастью, такое музыкальное направление, как глэм, не приказало долго жить и ребяты быстро сообразили, что выгоднее заделаться под готов. Ознакомившись с уже имеющимися в данном направлении группами, было решено тиснуть голос у бедного Питера Стила из Type O Negative, а чтобы особо не париться и музыку на первых порах тоже попытаться позаимствовать у него. Ну и что получилось?
А получился альбом "Blessed Be". Лично мне этот альбом вообще не нравится. Такое впечатления, что он написан с тем, чтобы музыку The 69 Eyes можно было пинками загнать в стиль Gothic Rock. Чтобы польстить готам группой даже были написаны такие хиты, как "The Chair" (да здравствует самоубийство), "Gothic Girl" (да здравствуют готки - пошлее названия для песни трудно придумать), "Brandon Lee" (явная лесть готам, поскольку Brandon - фигура культовая).
Неудивительно, что основная масса поклонников - это девочки-подростки, которым важна не музыка, а внешность членов группы. Ну что ж - каждому свое... |

Еще "Wasting the Dawn" обозначил переход финской команды к готическому року. Вокалист "глаз" Jyrki69 стиль группы обозначал как goth'n'roll, совмещающий энергию и драйв рок-н-ролла и хард-рока с готической меланхоличностью. Открывающая песня "Framed In Blood" получилась отличной - чистые риффы, мелодия заводная и довольно цепляющая. Далее - четыре "наиболее готичных" песни альбома - достаточно коммерческие и недурно сделанные ("Gothic Girl" - признанный "клубный" хит, посвященный готик-леди, "The Chair" - суицидальная мрачная тема, "Brandon Lee" - песня в честь актера фильма "Ворон" и романтично-дождливая "Velvet Touch", которая и получилась лучше всего). Еще стоит выделить красивый эпик "Stolen Season" и "ностальгически тяжелую" "Wages of Sin". Остальное не очень впечатляет. "Sleeping With Lions" - милая, но ничем не примечательная песня. "Angel On My Shoulder" - довольно стандартная для "старых" The 69 Eyes. Явно задуманная как наиготичнейший хит "Graveland" получилась какой-то игрушечной, надуманной - здесь гот-н-роллеры явно перестарались. "Blessed Be" - безусловно, лучший у The 69 Eyes, но, вместе с тем, назвать его эпохальным или как-то особо выдающимся язык не поворачивается. При всем моем уважении к готике. Твердая, честная восьмерка. |

Редко я ставлю такие оценки, но сейчас, похоже, случай подходящий. Эти 45 минут скучного, унылого, серого, попсоватенького готик-рока вряд ли кто-нибудь сможет дослушать до конца. Но я смог. :) Простенькие мелодии практически не отличаются друг от друга и не запоминаются. Не цепляет ну никак. |

Очень хороший gothic rock. Похоже на Sisters Of Mercy, особенно вокалом, но более серьезно и меланхолично, да и потяжелее будет. Рекомендую. |

Gimme something that I already miss
Everybody's searching for a difference
Everybody is searching for providence
Gimme just another reason to live
Things you can resist
Things you cannot
They're just framed in blood
2. Gothic Girl
You can see her
Whenever it rains
From rome to new orleans
Dancing on the graves
Burden by the heart she loves her
Sunglasses after dark
And every single day her
Little life falls apart
She's out to look
So macabre and alone
She's close to hook
On her dying
Just like a gothic girl
Lost in the darken world
My lil' gothic girl
Darkerside jewel are your razor cuts for real - baby
You can see she's
On her road to ruin
Stigmata from crucifixion
On her pale white skin
Tribal pagan art she loves her
Tattood egyptian mark
And every single day her
Love will tear us apart
She's out to look
So macabre and alone
She's close to hook
On her dying
Just like a gothic girl
Lost in the darken world
My lil' gothic girl
Darkerside jewel are your razor cuts for real - baby
3. The Chair
Just walk
Away from these dreams
And talk
The pain what it seems
Angel of my revelation
I don't really wanna let you
Walk
Away from these dreams
You gotta turn it all over
You gotta turn it all over
All over again
Kick the chair right down under me
Leave me hanging alone in misery
Kick the chair right down under me
Leave me hanging alone in misery
Just walk
Away from these dreams
And talk
The pain what it means
Angel of my revelation
I don't really want to hurt you
So walk
Away from these dreams
You gotta turn it all over
You gotta turn it all over
All over again
Kick the chair right down under me
Leave me hanging alone in misery
Kick the chair right down under me
Leave me hanging alone in misery
Misery has gone
4. Brandon Lee
What would there be
As the river of sadness turns into sea
Could there be
Another thousand stories like you and me
Wanted a heart, wanted a soul
More than anything else in this world
But we are doomed
Our flesh 'n' wounds
I would never give in
Just like the moon does
We rise'n'shine'n'fall
Over you
That I rise'n'shine'n'crawl
Victims aren't we all
What would there be
Beyond the eyes of brandon lee
Could there be
A revenging angel left to bleed
Wanted the truth, wanted the faith
More than anything else in this world
But we are doomed body and soul marooned
I would never give in
Just like the moon does
We rise'n'shine'n'fall
Over you
That I rise'n'shine'n'crawl
Victims aren't we all!
5. Velvet Touch
The autumn came took you away
I never expected you to stay
Black tears fallin'
In the cold rain
I woke up one night to the darkest dream
Your pretty ghost whisperin' to me
Just one drop and I'll give you
Eternity
I'm lookin' at you
I'm lookin' for love
Never get enough
When push comes to shove
Try to look at me tell me what you see
You let fantasy become reality
When the night is callin'
Pretty baby screams
I buried my heart into the deapest seas
When the blood runs cold I feel hot in heat
The red moon risin'
Over you and me
I'm lookin' at you
I'm lookin' for love
Never get enough
When push comes to shove
I never believed we would meet again
Start it all over 'til the very end
Gimme velvet touc gimme a kiss
(Kiss) kiss of death..
6. Sleeping With Lions
Said you wanted to feel
Cold metal and hard steel
But it cuts in too deep
To see you doing your midnight creep
Somebody hurts you so you're hurting me
The only way it was meant to be
As the lights of neon slowly dim
I can read in flesh
Everywhere you've been
Dreaming of silence
Of the gentle rain
Sleeping with lions
In the temple of pain
Said you wanted to steal
A heart of soul and make a deal
With the danger that you feed
Don't like the monsters that you keep
Somebody hurts you so you're hurting me
The only way it was meant to be
As the lights of neon slowly dim
I can read in flesh everywhere you've been
Dreaming of silence
Of the gentle rain
Sleeping with lions
In the temple of pain.
7. Angel On My Shoulder
I wanna feel you now like a thousand lies bleeding
Out of your heart burning in the night don't wanna see you crying
Fallen out of light I wanna feel you now like an August rain
Kissing summer goodbyes I wanna see your pain
I don't wanna see your crying fallen out of light
I don't wanna see your crying little angel on my shoulder
I wanna see you flying back to heaven where you belong
I wanna feel you now like a thousand knives digging out
Of my heart burning in the night
I don't wanna see your crying fallen out of light
I don't wanna see your crying little angel on my shoulder
I wanna see you flying back to heaven where you belong
Don't wanna see your crying little angel on my shoulder
I said alright gonna get you crying come hell
Or high water since you've been gone
8. Stolen Season
But your tears
Are not mine
Still sailing down on them til the end of time
All your fears
Still bleeding
Out of your heart out of the sealing
But you are
What you believe in
Come rain or shine in your garden of weeping
But you are
Seeking
The celebration of the evening
But your tears are not mine
I don't care if I die
As long as I can have you by my side
But your tears
Are not mine
Still sailing down on them til the end of time
All your fears
Still bleeding
Out of your heart out of the sealing
But we are
What we believe in
Come rain or shine in your garden of weeping
Still we are
Seeking
The celebration of the evening
But your tears are not mine
I don't care if I die
As long as I can have you by my side
All forgotten has gone
To sing this lonely song
Things just happen without no reason
Love's a stolen season
9. Wages Of Sin
Fall into oblivion
With me, my love
In the palm
Drunken night
And stars above
Go west to the desert land
The wind is like an invisible hand
Get a gun and be a man oh yeah
And don't you never ask
The reason
Why
Bad world
American
Sad world
L'american
Hold me
And never come again
In the bad new world
Ain't no wages of sin
Enter oblivion
Like rain from the sky
And don't you never ask
The reason why
Bad world
American
Sad world
L'american
Hold me
And never come again
In the bad new world
Ain't no wages of sin
10. Graveland
Down by the riverbank in the old bayou
I am digging a grave into mud just for you
And the hardest rains always come from Tupelo
The hardest rains always come from Tupelo
Blinded by the moonshine from Mexico
I'm singing blues waiting for the death row
And the hardest rains always come from Tupelo
Another dead baby born in Tupelo
Do you believe in God
Do you believe in Jesus Christ
Have mercy on me Lord
I must have been blind
Got a beast inside
That I sometimes just can't hide
When the wolfsbane blooms
And the shadows come alive
Death will be my bride
11. 30
Do you know the feeling
When you wake up
Find your way to the bathroom
Stare at yourself from eye to eye
Feeling relieved
The innocence is still there
Time to turn over, baby
Time to turn loose
No limits, no lines
That's yesterday's news
Got rhythm in my rhyme
Still shooting up so high
Got a ritual crime
But I ain't no slave of time
It's just like waking up
From the strangest dream
All of a sudden all the people
At your own age are gone
Got fat, familiarized, and wrecked
You're like the last of the
Lost boys of neverever land that's it
Time to turn over, baby
Time to turn loose
No limits, no lines
That's yesterday's news
Got rhythm in my rhyme
Still shooting up so high
Got a ritual crime
But I ain't no slave of time
12. Heaven / Hell
[Bonus track]
Don't deny you're walking with the beast
No place to hide where the creatures meet
Kicking back evil, kicking back the night
Run through the jungle like a real wildchild
Don't rely on walking with the beast
And the creatures they feast
I can't get no higher than this
Rising up horizon baby
Get real
I don't need no heaven or hell but it's alright
As long as you're in my heart
I don't need no heaven or hell but it's alright
As long as you're under my charm
Don't deny you're walking with the beast
No grace to shine where the creatures meet
And they feast
I can't get no higher than this
Rising up horizon baby
Get real
I don't need no heaven or hell but it's alright
As long as you're in my heart
I don't need no heaven or hell but it's alright
As long as you're under my charm
I don't need no heaven or hell but it's alright
As long as you're in my heart
I don't need no heaven or hell but it's alright
As long as you're under my charm
I can't get no higher than this
Rising up horizon baby
Get real
I don't need no heaven or hell but it's alright
As long as you're in my heart
I don't need no heaven or hell but it's alright
As long as you're under my charm
I don't need no heaven or hell but it's alright
As long as you're in my heart
I don't need no heaven or hell but it's alright
As long as you're under my charm
