As a band seemingly at the brink of defeat and dissolution, Evergrey have returned with surprising resolve on their latest record, and, with themes of revolution in mind, Hymns For The Broken resounds with renewed inspiration and restored integrity. Read more ›› |

Written by LascaillesShroud on 05.06.2014 at 20:57 That first video re-kindled good old nostalgia yet added new touches, Danhage (sp?) returning I'm very excited for this. I one time drove 6 hours to see this band live.

Written by EnigmaLake on 16.08.2014 at 16:14 Danhage and Jonas returning are big for me. Danhage/Englund guitar combo is great. His lead playing coupled with Tom's is immense!

I had the privilege of being able to attend a pre-listening session of this album. I must say it is amazing, unfortunately we only listened to twice. For me that is not enough to write a more detailed review, as I need to able to listen to the material in tranquility. But from what I have heard, we are in for a real treat!

I don't think we'll ever get another RD or TIC, but this is as close as it'll every get. Nice comeback Evergrey

Just bought it. I feared that just the song on YouTube was good. But after the first listen Evergrey doesn't dissappoint me.

Finally, after three average albums, they return to their former quality!

Written by Dark Forever on 27.09.2014 at 16:56 Good to hear. I feel bad for this band. Seems they can never catch a break. Remember when all their gear got stolen on tour? Was heart-breaking.

Written by Andreas on 27.09.2014 at 20:17 It's quite varied actually, much like their albums written in their former glory. You'll have to see for yourself

Just so the staff knows, 2/3 out of current '1' ratings can be considered vote abuse

Written by Dark Forever on 27.09.2014 at 16:56 wow, no kidding? I thought Torn & Glorious Collision were very well put together but I guess we Evergrey fans are pretty tedious at times. I've never heard anything by them that I thought "sucked" & having attended the PPUSA listening party for this album, all i could say was "holy shit" over & over. I do think this is an album that grows on you also so I'll reserve any final thoughts for a little down the road. Enjoy the ride!

Written by FelixtheMetalcat on 07.10.2014 at 22:25 I enjoyed both albums and they have great songs, but there was something missing that now as returned to their sound.
