Before the Dawn

Had long been waiting for a Before The Dawn or Dawn Of Solace show in my neighbourhood, and this completely hit the spot. Atmospheric, melodic, a mixture of new and older material (which I personally still prefer). Beforehand we were a bit doubtfull about the new vocalist, but live he sounds a lot better and stronger than on the new record, and we were pleasantly surprised. Too bad it was only a 3/4 hour show. Stam1na before, though not completely my cup of tea, also turned out better than expected with an energetic set, but Swallow The Sun after, though clearly the crowd favorites, couldn't convince us, and we left early.
