I am still baffled as to how he managed to get a PhD in England. He must have had a ghost writer.

Cynic sounds like K7.

12:39 - Marcel Hubregtse
What are you talking about? Who cares if theé's hard rock or rock on anything. If it's good it's good, if it's bad it's bad.

12:30 - Cynic Metalhead
Yeah, even they played some hard rock in it. Should avoid that.

12:28 - Paz
Neurosis was pretty good if you ask me. Definetly better than HFID.

12:08 - Marcel Hubregtse
All sounding very disjointed. ABsolute low point, as was to be expected. Lars' terrible drumming. He has trouble keeping up pace with the rest of the band.

"Beyond The Veil" is the second full-length album by the Norwegian act Tristania. It was released in 1999 and so far this is claimed to be their best release and righteously so. In this album the symphonic Gothic style is most perfectly defined and highlights every track on this release with heavy and dark beauty. Even better, one never gets the feeling of clichés or beauty vs beast influences while listening to "Beyond The Veil". Pure quality music only... plus undressed girls on the cover are always nice to see.

Among my fav albums ever.

Too bad the duet Veland/Moen stopped working together after this album. Those two made a really unique style.
And Vibeke's angelical voice... I surely miss that.

Such a dirty yet beautiful album at the same time, masterpiece, yessir.

In my opinion Beyond the Veil is the one of the best pieces of so called gothic metal.
All honour to Morten Veland.
