Nice review...If you ask me...It was three weeks before I could actually find the time to listen to this entire album..It all started with Absolution...I listened to one song then skipped..then I said, Well I have purchased it..I should Listen to it...and then that was it...now, Sing For Absolution, Blackout are few of the songs that I always carry along with me....Yes, DARK is one of the terms that I would definitely relate to his songs...and then the kick you get out of them...(Even from the slower tracks) is just amazing...
