My first Tiamat CD .......2005-05-25

This is the first and only(so far) Tiamat CD I have. These guys sound alot like sisters of mercy -pink floyd. If you are a fan of either than you will most likely love this CD. Favorite tracks 2,3 and 9. Try centurymedia for full songs.

Not bad at all.......2005-01-10

THis was the first Tiamat cd I bought, and I gotta say, I wasn't disappointed. Dark and melancholic, this disc just oozes ambience. Its got a pretty ionteresting blend of electronica-induced doom, with a good amount of industrial. My favorites are Church of Tiamat, Dust is our Fare, AS long as You Are Mine, and Lucy. The instrumental, Diyala, is pretty cool to. Its a good cd to put on, and then just sit back and chill to. Reccomended for fans of Type O Negative, Pink Floyd, and the like. Definately a band to check out. Also, the vocalist has a really good clean voice.

wonderful.......2005-01-09

Just as good as Judas Christ and Slumber. Worth it alone for Lucy, As Long As You Are Mine, and For Her Pleasure. Get this album

Unmistakably Sisterian.......2004-03-01

After the gorgeous "A Deeper kind of slumber" this is with ease the best Tiamat album allthough opinions on this are bound to differ.
Whichever the case, this LP is obviously the band's tribute to their most dominant influence: the Sisters of Mercy. Through and through you can hear the unmissable Sisterian aura this album has, and there are a couple of songs in particular where, bar the vocals, you'd swear you're hearing Eldrich's musings.

But it's the overall result that matters and in that respect " Skeleton Skeletron" is an absolute charmer. Gothic to the bone, melancholic and dark to its core, it might have basically one extended atmosphere it is based on but it's one that doesn't tire you but rather mesmerise you.

More to its credit is the strong closing of the album with the beautiful "Sympathy for the devil" cover version and the 2 very rocky songs that follow it.

If it's flawed somewhere then that would be the lyrics which at certain points drift to naivity. I'd dare say that were this purely instrumental it would be a classic. Do get it.

Tiamat - gift from Sweden.......2003-11-24

I am a big Tiamat fan, but this aint good record. Ideas are boring and atmosphere is too static. There are couple good songs, that`s all...

Buy first "deeper kind of slumber", "wildhoney" or "judas christ". Also "clouds" is brilliant but style is raw...depends what kind of music u are expectecing...

Tiamat's most grown-up album so far.......1999-11-21

I am a 22 year-old Dutch fan of this band. This band is my favourite band for the last three years, since I've seen them live in Belgium in '97. Since their second album "The astral sleep" in '91 they've come up with the most mystical, symphonical and beautiful metal so far. Albums like "Wildhoney" and "A deeper kind of slumber" always set the standard for many followers who wanted to make the same music like Tiamat. This new CD is the most grown-up album so far. Whether it is best, I don't kwon yet. But this album should be a collectors-item for many Tiamat-fans. Why? Their music has evolved even further; again, they managed to bring new elements into their already fascinating musical style... This cd is,a mixture of "Wildhoney"'s mysticism, "ADKOS"'s depth and some new gothic- and dark influences. The Pink Floyd-influences, which dominated on the last two cd's, are almost gone; their music has now turned into a darker, gothic-like style. The songs are made something catchier, more simple, and they sound much harder than on "ADKOS". Again, it will take some time to get used to this cd and this music; but when you've tried to understand their music, it will grow in your mind like an addiction and it will stay in your mind for ever...
