Apart from Within Temptation, Epica or Edenbridge, very rare are the groups that have kept the same singer throughout their career.

Following the internal tensions which led to the ousting of all the members of the group except the composer Martijn Westerholt, it seems very difficult to replace the charismatic singer Charlotte Vessels.

We are reassured, the voice of the replacement Diana Leah is unanimous.
Despite a blatant resemblance of the new voice to Charlotte, diana Leah shows versatility and real expressiveness which allows her to sing in the bass or treble without any difficulty.

On the musical side, Delain plays the security card by offering pieces of "old-fashioned" symphonic metal and modern power with catchy choruses.

A beautiful album with beautiful melodies that stays in mind as you listen.

Note the former Nightwish Marco Hietala guest on the track Invictus.

Delain proves who his career is far from over and restarts for good.
