Yeah, the only one I've heard completely is Divine Wings and it is a good album.

Josh D. 02-10-2008 09:13 PM

The Odyssey is not a waste of time.

And Rhapsody is just way too over the top. Except Luca Turilli.

Just get Luca's solo stuff.

Tyler 02-10-2008 09:14 PM

The Odyssey was mediocre.

CityOfEvil 02-10-2008 09:18 PM

The Odyssey is awesome.

Shadows Within 02-10-2008 09:18 PM

all their albums are good odessy is no exception, love crankin that in the car.

Tyler 02-10-2008 09:19 PM

Odyssey was bland.

Josh D. 02-10-2008 09:19 PM

Half the tracks aren't so great, but the composition of it all is very nice. Plus, it's a little heavier and Russell really goes all out, even if he sounds a bit forced at times.

CityOfEvil 02-10-2008 09:20 PM

The odyssey is awesome, like all the albums Im sure.

Tyler 02-10-2008 09:22 PM

The Odyssey was boring. Get over it, it was dumbed down in favour of "heaviness" that they barely pulled off.

Josh D. 02-10-2008 09:33 PM

Tyler has roids, don't listen to him.

I find TDG and DWoT not as entertaining as the rest of their discography. And TiO too.

CityOfEvil 02-10-2008 09:39 PM

I haven't listen to TDG yet. On DwoT there's like the four first songs and The Divine wings of tragedy I really like. But I like DWoT more than V. I don't know I just don't find something catchy in V like in the others. As for TiO, it's a bit like V but better.

Shadows Within 02-10-2008 10:25 PM

odysseys got a good feel i love whole album, Accolade II is one of my favorites, King of Terrors and Inferno are pretty classic, im also a big fan of Masquerade 98 too.

Everything by Rhapsody and Luca Turilli is great.

Black Dragon rules.

The Odyssey is their best album.

Tyler 02-11-2008 07:46 AM

Hey Lee, lets fight

Well, we're three. Inferno, The Accolade II and The Odyssey are so good and The Odyssey is one of the best song I've heard seriously.

BludgeonySteve 02-12-2008 05:42 AM

Son of Pain by Rhapsody of fire is probably my favorite song period. Anyone want to comment?

Surtr 02-12-2008 06:36 AM

Yes.

lol, I've slowly started to leave my Power Metal phase I was in. :(

But its ok 'cause I'm on Buckethead right now.

CityOfEvil 02-12-2008 05:06 PM

I guest this has his place here so.

I've been listening to Dream Theater - Train of Thought this last two days. First time I ever listen to them.
This album is excellent. I personaly find the final song, In the Name of God, unbelievable. I was listening to it and thought : It's very good, but it misses something I can't say to be excellent and the last song make him excellent IMO.

Any thoughts?

I have it in my collection.

Listening atm.

tbqh, I feel that [i]The Magic of the Wizard's Dream[/i] is a better 'slow' song by them.

Ofc everything by Rhapsody is great.

[I]The Magic of the Wizard's Dream[/I] has Christopher Lee on vocals. What more does a song need? Instant ownage.

Unfortunately, the album version does not so it's only Fabio Lione.

I prefer when he sings heroic material. The vibrato tenor sounds better when screaming about knights and dragons the like.

He sings backup on the version I've got, at least. I used to have the single version as well, but for some reason I deleted it.

Agreed. I am not a big fan of him singing the slower songs. Though Lamento Eroico is just mind blowing.

I actually have 6 different versions of that song. :eek:

masscows 02-12-2008 09:36 PM

I listened to Stratovarius-Destiny earlier and enjoyed it for the most part, but not alot really jumped out and grabbed me. I need to listen to it more though.

Shattered_Future 02-12-2008 09:38 PM

Stratovarius is a boring band, that's why.

CityOfEvil 02-12-2008 09:39 PM

Yeah man listen to it a couple of times. The song Destiny is really great and Anthem of the world too.

Poet 02-12-2008 09:40 PM

I am loving Avantasia's new album.

Shattered_Future 02-12-2008 09:42 PM

All of the parts with Jorn Lande = absolutely ridiculous.

Actually, anything with Jorn Lande = absolutely ridiculous.

CityOfEvil 02-12-2008 09:42 PM

I found out a couple of days ago that Avantasia is Tobbias Sammet, well for the most part I think, and I really like Edguy so Im gonna listen to Avantasia in the weeks to come.

ZapatoDiablo 02-12-2008 09:43 PM

Yeah and he gets a whole bunch of guest singers. And I don't know I liked the first two Avantasia cds a lot more.

Shattered_Future 02-12-2008 09:44 PM

Well, since the project's official name is Tobias Sammett's Avantasia, I'd think he has quite a bit to do with it... :lol:

I still love how much he gets owned by Jorn Lande on the title track for The Scarecrow. Granted, I love Sammett's voice, but it sounds unbelievably wimpy next to Lande.

Shadows Within 02-12-2008 09:47 PM

i gotta check out more avantasia because people say there much better than Aina but all the stuff i've heard from them doesn't even compare to aina...so i guess i gotta listen to the right stuff...

Roy Khan being on the first track=win automatically.

pate 02-12-2008 09:48 PM

I like Jorn Lande. He's probably my favorite singer named Jorn.
