Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Good, romantic goth rock.......2002-01-23

Good packaging, really good songs. It opens with a gentle Dead Can Dance-style mood piece, then BAM! Anthem rock comin' at ya! (That happens on two more tracks.) From there it settles into mid-tempo goth rock with plenty of guitar for most of the album. Over half the songs are definite keepers.

Requiem In White alumnus Christopher brings the right brooding, emotional quality to the vocals, and the poetic lyrics keep the vibe strong. The piano ballad "Aurora" features a great duet between Christopher David and Selina Silecchia.

The rock standouts are the "Les Sylphes (RTW Ver.)," "Voice," "Indolence," and "Succession." The desert flavor of "Haven" is more developed on the follow-up e.p., "Sahara Seas."

While "Fohn" doesn't have as much variety of sound as their next full-length album, "La Reveuse," it's a good first showing for a band that embraces the poetry and romance of goth while keeping the guitars at the forefront. Overall, enjoyable.
