Ultranoir But they all can't be loved self-released

These Finnish goths do a great job at emulating the songwriting of Joy Divison and classic Cure, but lose me with the out-of-tune, marble-mouth vocals. Their press materials and general all-around musical competence proves that they know what they're doing, but they still need to work on it to get it right. All in all, it's really not all that bad for what's essentially a three-song demo. There's potential, for sure. Lord knows I've heard plenty of other bands attempt similar stuff in this genre and have it be thousands of times worse.
