Charlotte Wessels - The Obsession (2024)
The Obsession is Charlotte Wessels' bold return to heavier sounds, blending symphonic metal with modern progressive and gothic influences. The album features contributions from her former Delain bandmates and guest vocals from artists like Simone Simons and Alissa White-Gluz. Tracks like "The Exorcism" and "Dopamine" showcase aggressive djent-like riffs and darker atmospheres, while more tender songs like "Soulstice" offer emotional depth. The album stands out for its balance of heaviness and introspection, making it one of Wessels' most dynamic and personal works yet(Distorted Sound Magazine)(The Dark Melody)(louder).
