¾ 2002: Hollow
Track Listing: 1- Hollow 2-Violet Sky 3-Perfect Dream 4-Six Feet Under 5-Ashes 6-Godspeed 7-White Sand, Red Sand 8-Gun 9-Common Things 10-Grace

"Guitar driven goth rock for those who miss the Rock in Goth, offering a few driving tracks for smoky dancefloors. The title track is unfortunately one of the weaker songs of the album. Highlights would have to be the FotN-influenced Violet Sky, the catchy Godspeed echoing early Mission sounds, and the synth hooks of the closing track Grace.
... Of course, Sideshow is none but the drummachine, the equivalent of The Sisters' Doktor Avalanche or The Merry Thoughts' ThoughtMachine!"
