Anyone checked out One Without?

Anyone heard of One Without from Gothenburg, Sweden?

They're a bit poppy, but enjoyably catchy and yet still very metal! Some similar qualities with Within Temptation, newer Nightwish, and Lacuna Coil, but different in many ways from all of those. The male vocalist is more of a growler (actually kind of enjoyable and I'm not to much for growls/death vocals), but occasionally there is some male back-up singing vocals. The male vocalist doesn't play as large of a role either. (I think he may only be in a few songs actually.)

The lead vocals (female) are powerful and beautiful. One Without have found a nice balance between being catchy and still very heavy.

There was an interesting interview with them here that lured me to check them out:

Here's there myspace for a quick listen:

What do you think of their sound? Just "another gothic metal bad" or do they have something unique?
