Y'know what, I really don't know what to say about this album! I've had this in my playlist for quite some time, pondering over what to write in my review. It's a good album, but nothing inspirational is jumping out for me to put into words. I suppose that's reflective of 'All Eternity', itself. I don't usually write reviews like this, but allow me to indulge a moment of your time while I just ramble on and whatever comes out, comes out.

The music is good. No problems there. It's easy to listen to, and the crunchy guitar riffs works well with the melodic keyboards. The vocals drone on quite a bit though. There's not a wide pallet of dynamics in them, they're just there. They're good, but they're not anything memorable.

Which pretty much defines 'All Eternity' in a nutshell. I could listen to the record from start-to-finish with no problems, but I can't really pick out any specific songs that I'd consider highlights.

I'll try though.

'Live in You', 'In the Heat of the Night', 'Sea of Sin', and 'One More Time' are all worthy of being considered highlights. I guess. The thing is, much like this review, this album just doesn't know when to end. Every song sounds like the one that came before it, and by the last few tracks you'll probably find yourself perturbed that it's still not finished.

Or maybe that's just me.

In conclusion; might be great for gothic metal enthusiasts, but for me, it's just a good album, which is just "there". But at least I managed to write this review after all.
