No. Hinting shouldn't be a problem. Posting Links on the other hand is a different thing.

The 1st half from Angel Of Babylon and maybe 2 or 3 songs from Wicked Symphony are good. That is about it.

Hmm, after listening to them a few times, I think they aren't outstanding, but better than Scarecrow.

Don't want to start another discussion, so I'm only saying I'm just going to give it one more try, and see :?

I have to say I like all songs. I enjoy listening to these albums more than listening to The Metal Opera's. These new CD's have lots of interesting stuff happening. I'm playing the albums all day now and I'm still not tired of them.

Because the song sucks. It is one of those typical commercial Sammet Songs like Carry Me Over or Superheros.

Is this going to be another one of those "don't use the word "gay" if you want to say that something is bad" discussions? :roll:

We're not going to have a discussion at all. Just wanted to know what was gay about DFaA. But whatever, let's discuss the albums because that's what this thread is about. :)

The whole damn song. It is one of those radio-friendly commercial Songs from Sammet that I despise so much.

Ok. That's a pity because songs like Carry Me Over, Lost in Space and Dying For an Angel are really good if you would focus on the music rather than how commercial the songs are.

What songs from the new albums do you like then?

I dislike them musically and because their commerciality. I can't stand them.

I like Stargazers, Angel Of Eden, Your Love Is Evil (pure 80s Glory), Death Is Just A Feeling, Rat Race, Down In The Dark, Promised Land (But why the fuck release it twice?), Wastelands, Scales Of Justice, Forever Is A Long Time and States Of Mater. That is about it.

Ah ok. Well that's ok isn't it. :wink: The difference between Promised Land on the Lost in Space EP and this new album version is that Kiske doesn't sing on the album.

And you're right. Your Love is Evil is pure 80's. I played that song many, many times yesterday!

Don't you like the title track from The Wicked Symphony? :o

The Edge is quite nice as it is simple :) and Death is just a Feeling

StarGayzers are gay :) seriously it is a very good song except the dull power chorus

The worst part of this album is Timo Kotipelto's whining voice on half the songs. Bullshit.

You've got that wrong. Andre Matos is the one with the whining voice and he only appears on one song.

The only really stupid thing about the album is the re-recording/re-release of Promised Land. Why? Why release the same songs twice? Because Kiske isn't in it this time? It is still the same song. And if it really was part of the concept of those albums, why did you realease it back then?

I just downloaded the albums, and I like them.
They are like... very unpredictable...
Sometimes sounds like Power Metal, some others like hard rock or heavy metal... :lol:
And I find that interesting.
