Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
The air is dreamy, the mood is mystical, the sound drifts slowly over a wash of synthesizers and layers of voices. It is that indefinable, new age, "Celtic" sound that wraps around artists like Enya. Clannad have great singers, great musicians, and even some great ideas. But by the time they got to making Lore, they had developed a wispy atmosphere, to the point of sounding like they were recorded under a bale of cotton. If you like your Celtic music with personality, with acoustic driven energy and a bit of dancing, then this album, like so many others in the genre, will drive you out of the room. If Celtic means soft, relaxing mood music, then this Clannad album is for you. - -Louis Gibson

5 out of 5 stars Brilliant.......2007-01-03

Discerning which is Clannad's best album isn't easy ... "Anam", "Banba" and "Landmarks" are all very worthy contenders, but I think "Lore" is the best of the lot, albiet by a small margin, as their albums are very consistent.

There are certainly no weak tracks here. Opening with the brilliant, dark and atmosphereic "Croi Croga", followed by the upbeat and feelgood "Seanchas", the album continues without letting up on beautiful moods that are deeply moving, right through to the end.

I hope Clannad continue to release albums, as the world needs inspiring music like this. An absolutely great album.

4 out of 5 stars pop mixed with gealic melodies...........GORGEOUS!!!!!!.......2006-03-06

"broken pieces" and "farewell love" are absolute
priceless gems off this cd. excellent
harmonies! clannad has won awards around the globe deservingly so. their music is gentle and soothing. maire brennan, lead singer of clannad, is the older sister of ENYA.
they have also made film music, notably for harrison ford's "patriot games" and others.
all their albums are good, try any one of them and relax.
if you love enya, you'll love her family.....CLANNAD.

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful stuff.......2003-08-01

This is one of my very favorite Clannad releases! Outstanding tracks include Croi Croga, Seanchas, A Bridge That Carries Us Over, From Your Heart, Alasdair MacColla, Trathnona Beag Areir (especially haunting) and Dealramh Go Deo. The Gaelic songs are great for those trying to learn some Gaelic, especially the Donegal Gaeltacht. Buy it!

3 out of 5 stars Good, not great and not their best.......2003-04-26

Strangely enough, this is not a 'best of' compilation, which Clannad seems fond of releasing. In the case of "Lore", an anthology would be better advised. Track two, 'Seanchas' and eight, 'Trail of Tears', rise above the rest of this CD. Clannad is good; no doubt that the Brennan/Duggan quartet is strongly gifted and talented. In particular, Maire Brennan's voice sometimes sound ethereal and beautifully other-worldly, but "Lore" isn't a particularly strong showcase of their collective and individual talents. "A Magical Gathering" would be better recommended, even though it is one of the 'best of' anthologies.

5 out of 5 stars Good Stuff.......2003-03-30

I have listened to a LOT of this group, and I must say that this is Clannad at their best. Though Clannad has a tendency to repeat songs on consecutive CD's, this one is refreshingly devoid of that. Croi Croga, the very first track, is among the best on the album, and Alasdair MacColla is among the best I've ever heard. Other excellent songs include Trail of Tears and From Your Heart, but there is nothing worse than "good" on this CD. This is truly a great from a great group.

3 out of 5 stars Heavier than plutonium.......2007-07-25

Boy, can I ever describe this for you. Okay, take Ministry's loudest and most dense work, put a fuzz filter on it that buries everything in mud and then mix it half shoegazer and half ambient drone and you get songs aptly titled like "World Deafening Eclipse". Got it? The only way this even comes close to working is played at top volume at 3AM in a club where everyone is dressed in black and chains. But the music is well written, it's not just a bunch of noise, there are (deeply embedded) hooks in there and enough compelling passages in a NIN sort of way so that it's actually listenable. Some people are really going to dig this, but I'll pass. I like dark music, but I never get this gloomy!

        5 out of 5 stars LORE Speaks ! - A must have CD.......2007-04-05

        This is such a wonderful CD, I love every song. Her voice is sweet and clear, and I enjoy the rhythms. Some CDs the music is all the same, but this one has a different style for each song and the words tell stories that anyone can relate to. I wish there were short sections of her music to hear on Amazon, you may have to check out her myspace page or the downloadable sites. My fave songs are: Haunting, My Soul Speaks, Flow, Release, Love has Gone (acoustic),Why Do I....all of them are cool. You will be humming them for sure :} This is a special CD because it has a second CD with alternate mixes of her songs. You WILL NOT get this with the single jewel case that is coming out in the US. So buy it now :}
