Yeah, Sarajevo is awesome. I highly recommend Dead Winter Dead if you already haven't listened to it.

Atari! Haven't checked The Lost Christmas Eve but there's no better time of the year than this one.

That's the only one I've heard but I remember enjoying it. Heard they put on a cool live show.

@manosg, hey buddy! overall, I think that album is more rocky than this one, there's almost a power metal vibe in some of the tracks too haha. there's 23 tracks but I dig most of them to be honest. the classical influences are pretty cool too such as wish liszt (toy shop madness).

I'm sure they put on a fun live show @jtswope

Hopefully, there's a new Savatage album on the way as well.

Sweet! I'll check Letters from the Labyrinth first just to see where these guys stand at the moment and then The Lost Christmas Eve it is!

I'll definitely give you a shout as soon as I listen to it.



Regarding Savatage, I'd say Gutter Ballet if you're in a rather prog mood is their greatest achievement. Otherwise, Hall of the Mountain King is a brilliant power metal album and Streets: A Rock Opera is closer to Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Depends on the mood. Overall, my favorite is Gutter Ballet.

I saw these guys a long time ago as a kid having never heard any of their music before. I thought it was super fucking boring. I can't find myself ever wanting to listen to their music.
