Holy May 15, 2008 I've been a fan of Glenn Danzig's work for 20 years now, since I got into the Misfits when I was 12 and then Danzig when I was 14. I've been a dedicated metalhead the whole time, but I also get into other genres when I hear something exceptional, like country, jazz, occasionally even pop if it's TRULY exceptional. I have never liked classical... I will admit to liking some Bach, because it sounds like metal, but that's been about it. It took me 15 years to buy this because when it came out, I thought "Danzig made a classical record? What??" I didn't think I'd be into it, and at the time, I probably wouldn't have been.
I found this album at absolutely the right time for me to appreciate it. Glenn Danzig's music has been, in a way, a soundtrack to my life. Hell, I even had four of his songs on the mix CD that I listened to while giving birth to my daughter. Oh, yeah! The midwives were a bit freaked out...
Now I wish I had heard this CD before then, because a few tracks from it would have been on that CD. This is gorgeous, moving and glorious, as only truly great music can be. I have always found Danzig's vocals to be all those things, and I figured I wouldn't like this since his voice is absent from it, but it's so awesome, when I'm listening to it I forget that he normally makes metal, and I'm transported, just as he wishes to fans in the liner notes.
Favorite track: The Morrigu. That track made my jaw drop and about blew me out of my chair with its beauty.
I also have to say, I love the cover art. It's so beautiful and is definitely evocative and representative of what's contained within.
Every Danzig fan should own this!
Bravo Danzig Aug 22, 2007 This is an amazing albulm. Sure, at first i didn't expect much from this albulm. No vocals? But this is an amazing soundtrack. Just listening to this albulm with the volume and bass turned all the way up is an adventure all in its own. This albulm is a must buy for all you Danzig fans. Black Aria II is a miss though, so don't bother with it. Black Aria is a one of a kind cd

Symphonic Danzig Jul 26, 2007 This is a masterpiece. Glenn Danzig shows that he can compose music outside of the Misfits/Samhain/Danzig realm with this moody orchestral composition. Worth getting to say the very least. BUY IT!
