Re: Sonata Arctica - The Ninth Hour
Man, I love every album Sonata has put out, but Closer To An Animal is just not doing it for me. The melodies are so meandering and weak and it sounds like the band is back there just playing whatever to chug along until the end, it sounds like they're all falling asleep while playing. I've never ha...

Re: Rate all Stratovarius album!
Holy shit, I forgot about some of those
In fairness, there are lots of great Strato lyrics, too. I particularly love the lyrics to A Drop In The Ocean, especially the "seconds pass me by, I greet the minutes as the hours roll them over and the years will drown the days and months" line.

Re: Rate all Stratovarius album!
Elements 2 is a great album but has some pitfalls to it (personally speaking) that keep it from being one of my favorites. But god fucking damn, I'm Still Alive, Walk To My Own Song, Know the Difference are three songs that PERFECTLY sum up everything I love about Stratovarius, so for those alone it...

Re: Stratovarius is going to reissue all the albums, Awesome!!!!
Very good post HP. I agree. The only album I am missing from my collection (not counting singles, because I do not have the funds to go on that tedious quest) is Fright Night. It's always too expensive every time I check on eBay or Amazon. It'll be nice to have this rerelease, but I still want the o...

Re: Episode special shows in November
Poor Timo, he's going to have one hell of a time singing this album front to back 20 years later.
Still, the greatest power metal album ever recorded, as far as I'm concerned. Glad they're giving this album its due.

Re: Dream Theater - The Astonishing
I refuse to listen to this. Dream Theater doesn't get those 2 hours of my life just because they sat down and recorded 50 ballads. This is a dumb fucking post. "I won't listen to this album, but let me make a judgment on the content of said album." There's a whole lot of tasty music on these discs....

This is actually a really good way for me to check my musical tastes. I can't recall the last 'new' power metal band (that didn't include members of famous 80s/90s/early 2000s power metal groups) that I listened to that I really, really enjoyed. It seems like it's all either way too symphonic, too s...

Over half of my life listening to Stratovarius and they're one of my three favorite bands of all time. Timo's voice is a big part of that. ...

I like the orchestrals, but I honestly think that Rhapsody seems to be taking steps back from the sound they managed to land in Frozen Tears of Angels and From Chaos to Eternity.

Re: Dream Theater - The Astonishing
The album was on a convincing fake DT bandcamp page this morning. I got through like 5 songs but I was barely awake and I already forgot what most of them sounded like. I remember the overture being very tasty, kind of similar to the Six Degrees overture but more... nightmarish. I can't wait to hear...
