Taken from Mystica, Awaken and unreleased tracks
This band was like a selection of musicians from the underground that created great music. Here we had ex Anathema singer Darren White, three original Cradle of Filth members (Paul Ryan, Ben Ryan and Paul Allender) and an ex member of Extreme Noise Terror (Was Sarginson on drums). The music on thsi album is a selection of tracks from both The Blood Divine albums and there are also some unreleased and demo tracks that make this album essential for any collector. Here we have this rocking and climatic music created from this twisted minds. The songs here have been mixed and the sound is better than in their original versions adding a lot of energy to the compositions (Darren White is killer here with his powerful vocals combined with a total different music from the one he used to do with Anathema. Here we have fourteen tracks of essential listening for lovers of each of the bands mentioned before and dark powerful music in general.
Favorite tracks: "Aureole", "Visions in Blue" and "I will Bleed"
