Love this record. It has a great atmosphere, blasting songs like "The Quest and the Curse","Invictus" and "Underland" and catchy songs like "Beneath", "Queen of Shadow" and "Moth to a flame". Epic orchestrations, combined with the typical Delain sound elements and great vocals. This album truly brought back Delain. Minor critics: I only wish that they would more use contrasting harsh vocals like on "The Quest and the Curse", and a longer outro for "Underland". Epic album!

Diana Leah의 목소리는 아무리 들어도 전혀 질리지 않는다. 음악을 감상하다 보면 마치 Diana라는 정령이 내 옆에서 속삭이는 것만 같다. 다음 작에 대한 기대를 불러 일으킨다. 이번 작도 보컬을 충분히 잘 살렸고, 다음 작에서 더욱 극대화할 것으로 기대된다. 그러고보니 Delain은 멜로디도 멜로디지만 보컬을 너무 잘 살린다. 이런 점은 Nightwish와 확실한 차이가 있다.

곡들이 비슷비슷하다보니 구분이 안되는 단점이있긴한데..멜로디를 너무 잘뽑아서.. 좋다.

These compositions are based so much around the singing melody, but some of those melodies aren't as evocative or playful as I'm looking for. Also, I think tracks 9 and 10 are the only very high quality material here; I'll definitely listen to those 2 songs again. For me, the rest is kind of average.

Delain na novinke "Dark Waters" predstavuje novú hlavnú speváčku Diana Leah, ktorá ma celkom príjemný spev. Album plynie v strednom tempe a ponúka prevažne Symfonický Metal s prvkami Heavy a Power. Je to celkom podarené, ale na vyššie ohodnotenie chýba viac výrazných a jedinečných hudobných momentov.

I was expecting a better album
level 9   80/100
믿고 듣는 국밥같은 델라인
level 11   70/100
무난하지만 몰개성
level 10   80/100
이전보다 좀 더 심플해진 멜로디라인이 눈에띈다

보컬이 바뀐 영향인지 아니면 작곡 능력이 좋아진 건지는 모르겠지만 이전 앨범보다 더 좋게 들린다.

THE HUMAN CONTRADICTION 이후 작품들 중에서 멜로디 라인이 좋아서 그런지 듣기 넘 편하다. 보컬톤도 여전히 최고 !!!
