Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars One of the most solid CDs.......2003-03-05

Few CDs have such a high percentage of good songs. Do they sound like the Sisters? I guess in a way, but the music is different and so is the subject matter. Do they sound like the Mission? No, this CD has 8 really good songs on it, and I believe the Mission only have about 3 good songs all together. This is goth at its poppiest. All of the songs are catchy with grooving bass lines and thrashing drum machines. Every song except Shadow and Forevermore is incredibly good, and even the two track I mentioned aren't bad.
A warning to people just getting into Rosetta Stone. Just because you like the material on this CD and other early releases, doesn't mean that you will like any of their new stuff. The band made a complete 180 and started making repetitive industrial music with no melody and filtered lyrics. Just a warning.

4 out of 5 stars Alright........2002-12-23

The vocalist Porl King has a very unique, enjoyable voice. The tracks are well put together. In my opinion " The Witch " is the best track but all of the tracks are done very well. I would get this if your a fan of Industrial or Darkwave.

4 out of 5 stars One of my favourite albums..........2002-06-23

It took me a long time to get a hold of this album, but I'm glad that I finally got it. There are a lot of great songs ("Shadow", "Adrenaline", "The Witch", "Darkside", "Leave me for dead", "Subtrefuge"...) and they're all catchy...Of course am I aware that a lot of people compare this band to The Sister of Mercy (which I can understand) but in my opinion Rosetta Stone ARE better. And this album proves it.

4 out of 5 stars Adreneline, Adrenochrome...you get the idea.......2002-05-28

Rosetta Stone took a sharp turn a while back and headed into more industrial material with less memorable songs. However, back in 1993 they sounded like The Sisters when the real Sisters were in limbo.

For the most part though, it's not obnoxious. There are elements of the Sisters everywhere, yet the Stone create their own energy on songs like Adrenaline and The Witch that are still very catchy, dark and fun. There are no overly Eldritch lyrics. The vocals are deep, the sound is shiny, there's enough variation to keep it fresh. Think Hussey Sisters with some industrial updates and you're getting there.
