    5 out of 5 stars Your tears on your cheeks are like snowflakes on my tongue........2006-02-08

    Amazing. This album just oozes beauty like a sponge when squeezed. It makes darkness and despair beautiful with slow dragging guitars backed by synth pieces that make each song very epic and dramatic. Production is a bit clearer on this album as opposed to Shades of... and I usually like lo-fi production, but it still fits this album and making each beautiful chord and note clear and sharp on your ears. A must have for any true fan of melancholic funeral doom metal.

    5 out of 5 stars great album but...........2005-02-02

    this band is not female fronted... they do have lovely female backgrounds, though .. a must have for fans of slow crushing doom, with majestic symphonics...all sonfs are great but the first 3 are the best by far

    4 out of 5 stars GOD THIS IS WEIRD.......2005-03-03

    Hmmm...simple, simple guitar work. All of the songs sound inspired and very doomy and gloomy and unhappy though, so who can complain? The best track is probably the second. You can just picture a miserable funeral march tramping slowly down a road in the forest in the rain as that one opens up. Then the grunting appears and the funeral march apparently is sucked into hell. The grunting is strange on this album, not aggressive at all like most metalheads are used to. More mournful. A bit hard to relate to, though...perhaps more clean vocals would have been more effective for this project?? Who knows. Anyhow, what we have here is an excellent record put together by musicians who knew exactly what they wanted to do. Buy it. Imagine the hours of fun you'll have suffering in depression!...

    5 out of 5 stars Depressing the way i like........2004-08-12

    Not knowing much about shape of despair i chose to give their album "angels of distress " a listing and well its pretty good. For any one into extreme slow,dark,mournfull, &,depressing music that can make you think about killing yourself, siriously. Get it !!

    2 out of 5 stars This is a real disappointment.......2004-07-29

    Angels could be a cool album, but it's just not. I was looking forward to hearing the old Amorphis singer again, in a new forum. He's still awesome, but the rest of the band is just bad. The riffs are unimaginative and the drumming is simple and entirely too bare bones. Really, what ruined this for me, I think, besides the fact that it's boring, is that I purchased and listened to Evoken's Quietus before this album. As far as I am concerned, Evoken are the reigning gods of funeral doom. In fact, they really need to come out with another darn album. Quietus is intense, atmospheric and amazingly complex doom metal. Go buy Evoken's album instead.

    3 out of 5 stars Dear Shape of Despair,.......2004-06-15

    I'm very impressed by the way you are able to capture the feeling of sadness so well in your songs. I'm very impressed by the growling abilities of Pasi Koskinen (whose vocals with Amorphis I did NOT rate). But that's about where my compliments end. Sorry, but your music is just too repetitive to keep my attention. Repeating the same riff for the 400th time does NOT make it more powerful than than 100th time you hear it. You could have condensed this entire album into one awesome 7 or 8 minute song, but then I guess you would have had to come up with something else. I'm afraid I can't listen to this except as background music. I suggest you learn from the masters, My Dying Bride, on how to make quality doom metal. That is all.

    Yours sincerely,
    Some guy

    1 out of 5 stars funeral music..........2004-06-05

    Please... I never been so bored in my entire life while listinin to this garbage. The songs are way to slow & drummer sucks real bad! Siriously, when i first got this-- i was like yawwwning nonstop. I mean, if you want to be depressed or put to sleep then go head put this on your stereo but if you want good & fast music that isn't boring...Then skip it ! Shape of dispair should be where they put crap like staind,korn,Marlyn manson,flaw,adema, and other depressing and boring bands that are unspering and plays terrible music and they have no heavyness in their sound neithe because their too slow !!
