    It's worth the price
  

*by J***E on Reviewed in the United States on December 15, 2010*

This is a fairly pricy collection. Only two disk and two albums, neither of which are well know outside of the far reaches of prog and "acid folk" circles. That being said this album is worth buying for the first disk alone. I'll echo nearly every person on here with my opinion of the second album, To Keep From Crying, and I'll get the unpleasantries over with first. This album sucks to high heaven. Its sole redeeming feature is that it ends. Even in the notes for this collection (which are excellent) Roger Wootton expresses how much he dislikes the album. It's syrupy, poppy and generally dreadful in the worse possible sense. I simply can't imagine how anyone who enjoys music can like this album. With that out of the way I'll focus on First Utterance, the album that this bands legacy is based on. I remember downloading it quite a while ago with no real expectations of the sound, only hearing that it was acoustic, primal and truly dark and disturbing. What followed was an assault unlike anything my frail little ears had ever heard, brutal, complex, wild and obnoxiously original. This album grabs hold of the listener by the collar, shakes them around for 50 min or so and then tosses them in the dirt; the band name (from Milton's masque) perfectly suits not only the band but the album as whole. Insanity has never sounded so good, and so inviting, and indeed playing this album to an unsuspecting person might very well drive them over the edge. So in short if you're on the fence about buying this album, just get it, it's worth the higher price for the first album alone. Listen to the second if for no other reason to grasp the entire band experience. But you'll most often reach for the first disk, and every time be transported to a far off time in a wild and scary land, it will haunt and possess your very being and consciousness. You'll not regret it.

    Amazing first disc, okay second disc
  

*by A***W on Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2011*

I first heard of Comus because of Opeth's third album 

  
My Arms, Your Hearse









  
  
    
  , which I found out was named after a line from Comus' song "Drip Drip." I figured, "If Mikael Akerfeldt likes this band enough to name an entire album after them, then I have to check them out." So I looked up the song on Youtube and instantly fell in love with the band. The creepy atmosphere mixed with progressive folk rock created a sound unlike any I'd heard before, and it was glorious. So of course, seeing a relatively cheap complete collection of their work here on Amazon, I knew I had to buy it.The first disc is amazing, simply put. The first album is hauntingly beautiful, and I especially love the stereo mix on it. Certain instruments come from certain speakers, and when listening to it on a good stereo system it almost seems like the band is right in front of you. Almost every song on here is fantastic; I'm admittedly not too fond of "The Herald" or "Bitten", but everything else is good enough that I'm more than willing to overlook them.The second disc, on the other hand, is...different, to say the least. It follows a much more pop/rock approach than the first album, and it definitely suffers from it. I knew about this difference in style though from reading reviews before purchase, so it didn't come as a surprise to me when I finally listened to it. When comparing it to the first album, it's absolutely terrible with nothing redeeming about it. However, judging it by it's own merit, it's...okay. It's not terrible, but it doesn't really rise to greatness at any point. The first song, "Down (Like A Movie Star)" is insanely catchy to me though, so I suppose that's a plus. When listening to this one, just remember to judge it on it's own, and not as a follow-up to First Utterance.This music isn't for everyone. It really, REALLY isn't. There will be people who don't like the vocals, don't like the instruments, or what have you. My advice is to listen to some songs on Youtube first and decide for yourself. Personally, I love this band, and this is a fantastic collection.

    Highly Recommend this Album!!!
  

*by D***D on Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2010*

I know this album of course is not for everyone, but honestly I have never felt so much beauty and at the same time complete chaos and evil in the same album before it is just amazing(First Utterance). I had only heard Song To Comus and Diana online before deciding to buy this album and thought even that was worth it considering this set it cheaper than each of the separate CDS individually. Boy was I surprised when I surprised to find out I don't even like Song To Comus as much as their other songs on this CD. It is so beautiful. The Violin Acoustic guitar and Flute all go together wonderfully. Jethro Tull does a good job by making me feel like i am in medieval times, but I feel it moreso with this album.The second album seems to be made fun of a lot, and I honestly cannot see why. I only bought this because I could get it cheaper and had heard the second cd made fun of so much I decided to give it a listen and I LOVE IT. To me I see nothing wrong with it just further experimenting which all sounds great to me.
