Hah, Episode is 2nd best album that I have heard.
It only needs more listening that you get better in it.
Fourth Dimension is not so good than Episode, but still nice album.
There's some not so good songs in the middle of it, but the end of it is awesome, also the beginning.
In Episode there's not bad songs in my opinion. 8)

I rarely play the actual CD (mp3 rules) but I also listen to it regularly, imo the only bad track on those two albums is Father Time

I like it, also. It's weird!
But, my favs are Galaxies, and We Hold the Key. I also like Against the Wind.
4th D is a very good album.

That's why I like it, plus it has outstanding drumming :D My other favourites are Against The Wind, Stratovarius and Twilight Symphony

Well, this is the Stratovarius section of the Stratovarius forum. So I don't think talking about Stratovrius music is irrelevant.

I don't know why I hated that song so much, but I simply can't stand listening to it again...

Against the wind is my strato fave song! The melody really cheers me up + the lyrics, which mean a lot to me.

Just keep on listening to those albums. You will love them... especially Episode.

Episode is my favourite album along with Destiny. I was hoping for an Episode-like comeback... :(

hmmmm, I just listened Fourth-Dimension for the second time, and I gotta admit, I liked most songs this time... So I guess it's not so bad.
But I didn't like Stratovarius, 030366, Nightfall and Call of Wilderness.

Now let's re-listen to Episode...

EPISODE RULES!!!

It has been determined many times by the fans that 030366 sucks. It is consistently voted as the worst Strato song, and it certainly has my vote.

BUT, Against the wind, We hold the key, Twilight symphony, etc., are excellent! And I like the instrumental Stratovarius.

yeah Episode was better this time around too. But I didn't like Episode, Uncertainty, season of change, babylon(too long), and night time Eclipse.

You know, with some songs, we like them the first time we listen. Some songs require you to listen a couple of times before enjoying them.

hmmm, gives me another topic idea...

4th Dimension and Episode are both great.

Episode is my fav album from couple of month to now.
It's just awesome.

Season Of Change and Night Time Eclipse are the best songs of Stratovarius.
Just listen to them a little bit more, I'm sure you will like them too. :wink:

In my opinion Episode is one of the best Stratoalbums and Fourth Dimension is great, too. If that's your honest opinion, so be it.

i must admit that those were among the first albums i got and i didn't like much oh them....after listening to more, in time, i just learnt that those albums were pretty good ...

i guess i got used to the strato sound and the strato idea in general
