    Rating:
    Kind of appetizer E.P. from COF, although it contains no tracks supposed to be on a future album. It does have 5 new tracks though, but two of them are covers; Misfits resp. Anathema. The title track and "Of dark blood.." are real new COF songs and they're both awesome. "From the cradle.." being the kind of melodic metal you expect from COF, and "Of dark.." could be described as "COF going back to their old sound but with better production" - intense song. The covers, "Death comes ripping" (Misfits) and "Sleepless" (Anathema) are both boring crap songs I don't wanna hear even once more. And then there's another crappy techno track from hell (or at least Dani's twisted mind), "Pervert's church" - beware I say. Finally, they've wrapped in a new version of "Funeral in Carpathia", one of my fave tracks from "Dusk..", not that I can see the importance of it here but it's ok. (I think the subtitle is pointing on that it's alot faster than the original, but I dunno for sure)
    So the sum of all this is, that the only tracks you really need here are the the first two ones, but pay almost full price to get two good songs?! No way!! Get them on mp3 through Napster of whatever, instead.
