Album Review
Smirking goth crooner Voltaire gets "serious" on Then and Again, an album that showcases his strong songwriting and one of the best sets of pipes that ever wrapped themselves around dark material. Voltaire hasn't totally abandoned humor — it's hard to imagine he ever could — but Then and Again isn't as concerned with making Hot Topic customers giggle as it is with delivering full songs. The opening "Crusade," with its father/son subject matter, the non-ironic cover of the Cure's "Lovesong," and the Renaissance throwback "Goodnight Dragonslayer" should be added to any longtime fan's "best-of" list and could actually turn Mom and Dad into Voltaire fanatics. Acoustic guitars and string quartets make the album all the more approachable, while Voltaire's lyrics get deep and offer vivid pictures of heartbreak, family, and personal reflection. Then and Again is surprisingly warm, organic, and fully formed, and an album worthy of both Peter Murphy and the Incredible String Band. Good times and warm fuzzies for the 21st century goth.
Customer Reviews
this is it!
What more can be said but this...this is truly bueatiful and dark. I for one loved it at first listen. This will certainly be on my permanent playlist.
Just...wow..
Like the title says. I don't cry because of songs at all, but the first time I heard Crusade, I almost cried at the dragon's death. The character was fighting for his reasons, which i think were the Crusades ( of course ) and the dragon fought to protect his young. This definitely tells you that in every war, on every side, the fighters see their cause as worthy, so there is sometimes difficulty seeing "good" and "evil" in some wars. The whole song just gives you a deep feeling.
Awesome!
Voltaire makes funny songs, and also makes serious ones, but ALL of his songs are AWESOME!
