Review - :
{$H.I.M.}'s {^Razorblade Romance} was a huge step from the poppy yet raw {^Greatest Lovesongs}, and so their reputation as a teen girls' entertainer began to grow. That was very unfortunate for the old fans of {$H.I.M.}, as {^Razorblade Romance}'s the beginning of {$H.I.M.}'s more polished {\pop} era. {^Deep Shadows & Brilliant Highlights} plunges deeper. Songs lack hooks, the sound is just way too clean, and as the highlights (single tracks {&"In Joy and Sorrow"} and {&"Pretending"}) are over before the halfway point of the album, as a whole {^Deep Shadows} is utterly boring. It may reach its goal -- satisfying teenage girls -- but musically it is a horrible failure. [The German edition appends four bonus tracks to the original: two remixes of {&"In Joy and Sorrow,"} and two remixes of {&"Pretending."}] ~ Antti J. Ravelin, All Music Guide
