There´s no doubt this was a long awaited one.Tristania is a gothic metal band of really good dark gloomy musical passages, since their succesful "Beyond the veil" album wich made them famous all over europe and the rest of the world, everything seemed to be fine but then the most important composer left the band, Morten Veland.Almost nothing has been revealed about what lead him to leave the band.But let´s talk about "World of glass" wich may not be better than "Beyond the veil" but it's still an excellent gothic metal album, strong vocals matized by the enchanting vocal performance of Vibene Steke, always keeping the particular sound,wich mades them a distinctive band of the genre. It´s a good album, but lets see what else can this norwegian band offer.Only time will tell.

Score:8.5/10
