This is a great album...and yes... it is gothic!!! Atmospheric gothic metal I guess you could say (as they do on their web-site). For My Pain is a project from some of the guys from Eternal Tears of Sorrow with Tuomas from Nightwish and the guitarist from Embraze. And what they have created is incredible!!!!!!

First off, the vocalist has a great and smooth voice. Not cracky and in pain gothy or that real deep on either..a very pleasant voice. He also sings in a band called Reflexion which I will now look into. Keys have a slight majestic and atmospheric feel to it, very good with the goth-rock heavy riffs and thumpy bass lines.

Just a great album...blind purchase!!! Hell, it was for me :)

Favorites: My Wound is Deeper then Yours, Dancer in the Dark (a nice male/female duet with Miriam Verag), Broken Days, Sea of Emotions, Bed of Dead Leaves, Tomorrow is a Closed Gate
