Dead Can Dance's Into the Labyrinth

I liked the phenomenal dynamics and purity of the sonics so much, that it is truly a "show off" your system CD. The quality for an early 90's CD, is particulary outstanding.
I thank Slipknot for introducing it to me.
Most pleasantly surprising, although Albert has now explained it, are the vocals. Great stuff and a must buy.

Oh yeah, this is one of the "staples" of cd's in rotation every few months for the past several years... their other work is quite decent too... worth looking into.

"Into the Labyrinth" is the last listenable release by this band.I personally prefer first 3 records.Also,never watch thei video on VHS/DVD.This will ruin it for you and turn everything into new age shmaltz.

Into the Labyrinth is wonderful. If you get a chance to see Lisa Gerard perform live, don't miss it. If you want to enjoy some of the early music that infleuences her world music, and hear, if you can believe it, an even MORE remarkable voice than Lisa's with an even greater range, check out the stunning recording on Alia Vox of "El Cant De La Sibil-La", Montserrat Figueras & Jordi Savall in
La Capella Reial De Catlunya. Make sure to get the Alia Vox version as there are two and the AV version is superior in every way. I'd recommend this recording to anyone who likes Gerard, as well as anyone who is passionate about music. It is a stunning recording, done in a stone church in Paris. The ambience, soundstage, and the sheer beauty of this piece and Figueras performance is enough to bring tears from a rock!

Marco, you are so damn passionate, I couldn't resist. Hard to find the Alia Vox, but it's done. Just ordered that baby. I took a gander at your system, to see if you are a serious audiophool. lol.. Arkive Music said that they would refund my money if I don't cry. Eyes welling up?-- no refund.. Can't beat that deal...I'll keep you posted.
