Finland's goth scene couldn't be better since The 69 Eyes
hit the streets way back when. Now years later they have gotten on to release
their tenth album to date simply titled "X". This darkened hard rock
stride is downright classic with songs including hit single "Red"
among other catchy gloomy tunes "I Love the Darkness in You", "I
Know What You Did Last Summer", and "If You Love Me the Morning
After".
A lot of comparisons are met while others are eerie but creepy
cool. For instance "If You Love Me the Morning After" is quite
comparable to HIM having frontman Jyrki 69's vocals do a shifting effect of
being passionate to soulful while the crackle of the guitar riffs offer more so
that makes the listen more wholesome.
While hit single "Red", lays out what this album
has to offer this vampiric rock melody stays true to the classic goth styling's
that The 69 Eyes is known for over the course of their careers. The melodic
vocal lines and lyrics are spot on. "I Know What You Did Last Summer"
and "I Love the Darkness in You" collide with one another having an
upbeat melody that keeps the tunes right on the beat while the album splits up
to having a mellow factor first hand and the second portion is more on edge.
The 69 Eyes have stayed true to their classical roots
uplifting them from the ground up
keeping the darkness alive and well.
