| David this is a website for fans of aor and hard rock no matter what language they speak.Maybe he doesn't speak english and his comments can be interesting for other people in the same situation.

| Yes David, melodic rock fans are supposed to be intelligent and open-minded (that's why we're not into nu-metal,rap metal etc.).The fact that someone doesn't speak english may hinder their progress on an english speaking site,but they should be respected nonetheless.

| Amazing; really a must for every melodic rock fan out there. I bought it when it was released and man, Dying for Love is still one of the songs I play a lot. Winterland is also a stand out. En res'men, este cd es la re-ostia jeje.

| 'Yes David, melodic rock fans are supposed to be intelligent and open-minded (that's why we're not into nu-metal,rap metal etc.)' Does anyone else find that contradiction funny? Crown Of Thorns, great album.

| Not only the best melodic rock album of 1993, but also one of my favorites of any release. Too bad this got delayed a couple years, it might have been able to make a bigger impact than being relegated to small label status. This one has it all. Rockers like 'Dying For Love', 'The Healer', and 'Crown Of Thorns', ballads 'Wonterland' and 'Standing Of The Corner For Ya', and even a rap-rock song that is not too bad 'Are You Ready?'. Too bad Jean could never top this. 10/10

| Great album , great band.Just listen to Tony Thompson belt the absolute shit out of those skins on 'No You Don't' and the all round mighty effort on the ballad 'Standing On The Corner For Ya'.This album is a gem as are all their albums except 'Destiny Unknown' which in my view was a shocker.Very under rated band.

| One of the BEST hard rock releases EVER!! from the opening track to the last, this cd is full of crunch that would splinter bones. Great songwriting all round, and awesome vocals from Jean. If you were going to buy 1 CofT cd, then this is the one. Not a bad song.They have never really been able to capture that raw energy in their other releases. Maybe Jean needs to give Paul Stanley and Desmond Child a call, just to freshen things up a little. They can do no wrong. 'Crown Of Thorns' what a song.

| Not the crown jewel some claim it to be, but still a classy melodic HR CD. Lots of hooks, tight production, stellar vocals, and the kind of harmonies that Harem Scarem would be proud to call their own. What keeps this from being a true masterpiece, however, is that some of the songs are far better than others, meaning consistency falters. But when they're great, they're really great, and it's not hard to see why some folks rank these guys among the reigning kings of the melodic hard rock realm.

| one of the best releases back then as ican recall.in my opinion this is unique and cannot been repeated.even crown of thorns didnt even reach such perfection in their sound and songwriting.the guitars are strong, the hooks are all over and jean s vocals awesome.listen to the anthem "dying for love","crown of thorns","the healer" and "til the end".the rest of the songs are very nice too.i ll catch them live infirefest in some days and i am very excited about it.great release

After a demo songs release came this COT debut which is for me simply an outstanding one!!!...ok it has,as some stated above,some songs that probably are not appealing for some listeners but in general lines it can be digestibles all the way down...my faves are "Dying For Love","Standing On The Corner For Ya"(nice softy),"The Healer","House Of Love" & "I Won't Wait"(japanese B/T)...enjoyable record...91/100

| This is a great album, very catchy and rocking. Odd year for this album, and that's probably why it never got the attention it deserved. Very recommended for fans of catcy 80's rock, 92/100

| Crown of Thorns' debut is a monster of an album that manages to sound both raw and polished at the same time. The opener is a great rocker witha super chorus and solo; Hike it Up has a wonderful riff; Dyin' For Love is a wonderful melodic rocker with passionate vocals. Other highlights include the ballad Till the End which is very emotional, the powerful, Winterland and the hard rocking Are You Ready which despite having a rap part in the middle, actually works really well and the solo is super too. One of Beauvoir's better moments for sure!

| remember 1993.the horrible grunge wawe is in action.no place for melodic rock in the majors and in lot of labels.nevertheless the little flame of a o r is always alive.thanx to now&then to put on the market this masterpiece.a killer cd ,only killer songs no fillers.without any doubt crown of thorns deliver is best record.top class hard f m.tony thompson is the drummer of the disco band chic "le freak c est chic".in an interview to rock time (french magazine) he says that is dream ,after all these years of playing funky music ,is to play hard rock.he choose the good band to express his talent and his secret passion!!!!
