Evergrey - Theories Of Emptiness - ALBUM REVIEW

idk maybe this is one of those bands thats tried something new dont really know much about them they seem alright though

I agree! The whole album feels similar to the other bands mentioned, but it just doesn't have enough energy. It's all around just OK.

Actually its a pretty standard Evergrey album, the things you noticed here are typical for their sound in general, not just this one. So it depends on whether you're digging their sound or not - if you are then this album is gonna be really good for your taste

Evergrey have always been exceptional songwriters. Tom is one of the best melody writers in Metal, imo.

I love the album. Not my favorite Evergrey album, but its a damn good one.

Tom makes Evergrey. He gives them their trademark sound. Throw in someone with more energy or harsher vocals, and theyre just another metal band.

His soulful voice brings these songs to life, imo.

I love evergrey, but it’s not my favorite album. I enjoyed their previous two albums much better!

I like Evergrey. Their last album was excellent, but this album was good, but I was kinda disappointed.
Maybe it's for newcomers, but it didn't grab me as much.. 6/10

Try "The Atlantic" - it's their best record when they changed sound, it's heavy and progressive, the opener is just pure prog metal with ultra heavy start.

It’s a lighter album than the previous it’s a.mixed bag of heavy and light songs but I still can’t get enough of it. There isn’t much of a theme or story to the album as a whole. I love Misfortune, Cold Dreams, Say, We Are The North and To Become Someone Else (I love the chilled out bit in the middle)
I think he’s an amazing singer he’s got power and emotion.

Every album from since Hymns For The Broken is mighty impressive 🤘🤘

Tom is the most soulful singer in metal. Nobody sounds like him. Great guitarist, too.

4 good songs. Thats it. The usual emo stuff and the boring, overdone, stop-begin kind of riffs. Good lead work though. The days of old unfortunately aint coming back.

This album is good, maybe not quite as stellar as their previous one, but still really enjoyable. Tom is an incredible and emotive singer, he is underrated imo.

You two obviously don't appreciate Everygrey's music or style. Knocking Tom's vocals is totally off base as he is an upper echelon, unique singer. You want screaming?? This is not Death Metal!

As a huge Evergrey fan, this album is a bit of a disappointment for me personally. I totally understand why they made it. It is more accessible, it just isn't really for me. There are a few songs that I really enjoy, and then there are songs like Misfortune, which could be bottom 3 Evergrey songs of all time for me.

The standouts for me are Falling From the Sun, Say, To Become Someone Else, One Heart, and We Are the North. I find myself skipping the rest of the songs.
