Reflexion is a rather old Gothic Rock act in Finland, formed back in 1995 by a group of friends that wanted to play some good rock. Sadly they didn't get a record contract, although they got some recognition on their country with apparitions on national TV and so on. The vocalist of Reflexion also does vocal duties in For My Pain? , and while you might think that this is the side project of For My pain.. vocalist, you're wrong, as a matter of fact, For My Pain? could be his side project since he has been involved with Reflexion from the beginning, sometime around 2001 For My Pain? asked Juha Kylmänen (vocalist) to join his ranks.

Anyway, this is their third demo so far, containing 3 songs of pure catchy Gothic Rock, the vocals of Kylmänen are easily recognizable, if your ever heard For My Pain? of course.
While the band is not far from For My Pain? is not a copy, the style is definitively more mainstream and less melancholic, melodies are simple yet catchy, and I must say I really like the three songs.

"Crashing Down" begins the Ep with a powerful single, filled to the brim with catchy parts and hooks for the listener, title track "Journey To Tragedy?" is a mid paced melancholic song, some electro percussion can be found here (I really don't know how to call it), last song "Me & Myself" is another possible commercial success, slow calm parts counter with the sing-along chorus, really good.

I think Reflexion are more than ready to become Finland's next musical export to the world, let's just hope they get lucky with that.
