Lovely, I'd thought so already as he'd used more the higher ranges in his own music in the past and he really has a nice voice ... :D :D :D ...

Ofra Haza ... is just unreachable ... that voice and her command of it ... no use trying to copy her ...
AND from the day of her death on, when her light ceased shining over the land, the state of Israel has been falling ever further into darkness... :( ...

Anyway, well done Kai ... :D ...

Gosh it's lovely to hear his voice again. In fact I think the vox all round are really effective.

Kai has done some higher register vocals on This Corrosion in the past, I think that utilising that skill on Temple Of Love is a great move.

And also - this is far from a criticism: I think Ben's vocals are a bit looser here too? He still drops into the baritone to complement or fill out Eldritch's lead occasionally, and fair enough too, but I think he's delivering his ordinary backup parts in a more rough n ragged way. It seems like a deliberately less disciplined approach, which is refreshing in its own right. We've seen him do the heavy lifting when he needs to, and we know he can do his parts as those perfect, glistening multi-part harmonies when that's the setup, but he's backing up I Will Call You in a slightly lower register here, and it feels like an altogether rockier take on his parts. It's a nice change and I'm glad that the frontman's voice is in the kind of condition that allows them to keep playing around with these arrangements.
