DEEPER DOWN

This single contains two of My Dying Bride's more heavier songs. The title track is taken from A Line Of Deathless Kings. This song is both pretty heavy and catchy. The target group is obviously the heavy metal crowd out there. Those who found My Dying Bride through Iron Maiden. This song is the least interesting song from A Line Of Deathless Kings and does nothing for me. The Child of Eternity is in the same vein. Pretty heavy with some death grunts thrown in. This is an old My Dying Bride track. The final song is a live version of A Kiss to Remember. This progressive song is the only good song here. But it can also be found on one of their live albums so it does not interest me.

This single is nowhere as interesting as their first three EPs. But I am sure it hit the target audience pretty well. But I am more a fan of the progressive symphonic My Dying Bride than the gothic or heavy metal version of this band. Hence my spare use of stars.
