Well I like it!!! - Grainne
A huge departure from "Because of the times"?, "Only by the night" is definitley the bands attempt to move into the main stream, a fact the band haven't denied. "Sex on... MORE

It's Alright., It's Alright. - smellthecrayons
This album has its ups and its downs. A Couple songs such as Crawl and Sex on Fire are amazing and addicting to listen to. However most of the other songs blend in to one; in fact I can't quite... MORE

Top notch - foxamaphone

Weak Transition - Fabien Oman

Not their best work - movielover
I totally agree with DeclanClancy. I hate going to a concert and meeting people who don't know the name of the band's first album. I was hoping that Only by the Night would continue in their... MORE

Good - Locky
As a non-metal head, I thought this album was pretty good. Crawl is a great tune. It's a good album and I hate all that metal, dark shite and depressing pointless moaning about crap. This is good. MORE
