I have very diverse musical tastes and consequently I enjoy music that has elements of diversity as well. Goth style rock has great appeal in that one can often hear complex instrumentation and vocal harmonies with a hard driving sound or sweet and often haunting melody. All of these elements are present to varying degrees in the music of Lacuna Coil. The band has been around but under different names for over 10 yrs.I am a new fan of Lacuna Coil (about 2 years now) and I own everything they have put out. This is also a great band to introduce you to the genera. Christina Scabbia's voice is fabulous! Whether fronting the hard driving tracks, blending with her growling or harmonious coparts, or the focus of an orchestral toned beauty, it is her voice you will appreciate. The bands music is very accessable for this genera. The harder core fans of Goth may feel there's too much radio friendliness in many of their tracks. You decide! If you like Evenescence you will not be disappointed in this band. Karmacode is their latest release. While I don't think it's their best, you'll listen often anyway, and probably return to enjoying it on and off years from now. I would recommend it and feel confident in saying you'll not be disappionted. Not only will you become a fan, you'll have some great music in your player!Read full review
This cd is one of my favorites. Songs are well produced and written. Cristina Scabbia has a great rock n roll voice. I love listening to this cd when driving to work. Really gets you energized. The band is really tight. The guitar hooks and riffs are well done.

Lacuna Coil was introduced to me by a fan in Texas in 2007, I love her version of "Enjoy the Silence". The lead singer, Christina Scabbia has the ability to hold a note that would make her perfect for opera though apparently heavy metal seems to pay more these days obviously unless you're the late Pavarotti. Lacuna Coil is a tour de force which regrettably has not had as much ovation here in the States as it has had in Europe.Good heavey metal that I would definitely recommend!
A step backwards for Lacuna Coil on this one. I was expecting so much more after Comalies. Generic, Nu-metalish, Lack Luster, which means it should sell well, get some decent radio play, and please all the little kiddies. I'm not saying it's a bad album but it's not great either. If you're looking for some substance you might do better looking elsewhere.
Karmacode by Lacuna Coil has quickly become my most favorite CD. The guitars are wicked heavy with some of the nastiest grooves around. Combine that with moody, brooding keyboards and amazing vocals that soar and you've got a winning combination. You can tell this band is experienced and have been together for a long time because they achieve a smoothness, a cohesiveness that is rare among today's musicians. Every song on the CD kicks a$$.
