I have been a fan of Bella Morte's for some years and loved their live show here in NYC @ The Batcave years ago when they first started out.

Of course I was excited when I learned that they have a new CD out.

"Light's in the sky" is a danceable hit. It's hard hitting without losing their Bella Morte'ness (if you will) that we all fell in love with when they hand crafted -"As we Descend."
Boys, you made me happy with this song, it's so good! Bella Morte may get a set of new fans with this song, perhaps friends of Iris, Mesh, Xymox will be hip to this ablum

Old skool Bella Morte fans..."here with me" is a black lighter special...oh yah...sing it...because this is what this band is all about...delivering good darkwave/synth with awesome harmonies.

Other Bella Morte gems from their latest release: "Before the Flood"(title track), "The Morning Sun". This album even feels like a throw-back to A-HA meets Alice in Chains.
Bella Morte has been able to expand their sound to include alternative fans to their signature synth/darkwave fare.

Keep it coming...your new album sounds fresh and you have grown in the 14+ year as a band.
