It comes across much more serious than most of these "epic fantasy" concept albums most power metal bands put out. Awesome stuff and great guest vocals as well.Dream Theater Black Clouds and Silver LiningsInto Eternity Buried in OblivionInto Eternity The Scattering of AshesJason Becker PerspectiveProtest the Hero FortressSum 41 Does This Look Infected?Sum 41 All Killer No FillerSymphony X Paradise LostThe Confession RequiemThe Human Abstract Digital VeilDefinitely a return to form. The production is tight, the songwriting is very dynamic, heavy yet melodic, and it'll make any guitar player giddy with joy. There's counterpoint lines on this album that would make even Bach jealous.4.0 excellentAll Shall Perish Awaken the DreamersAll That Remains The Fall of IdealsAt Dawn Undead EPAugust Burns Red ConstellationsAvenged Sevenfold Diamonds in the RoughBleeding Through DeclarationBlessed by a Broken Heart Pedal to the MetalBorn of Osiris The New ReignBullets And Octane In the Mouth of the YoungCacophony Speed Metal SymphonyDragonForce Inhuman RampageDream Theater Six Degrees of Inner TurbulenceDream Theater Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes from a MemoryDream Theater OctavariumDream Theater Systematic ChaosEnsiferum From AfarFairyland Score to a New BeginningFleshgod Apocalypse LabyrinthGuns N' Roses Chinese DemocracyI Am Abomination The Passion Of The HeistIron Maiden Dance of DeathJason Becker CollectionMarty Friedman Dragon's KissMy Chemical Romance The Black ParadeNecrophagist EpitaphRhapsody of Fire Power of the DragonflameRhapsody of Fire Legendary TalesSlipknot SlipknotSlipknot Vol.3: The Subliminal Verses [Reissue]Steve Burke Kameo: Elements of Power (Original Soundtrack)Symphony X The Divine Wings of TragedySymphony X Twilight in OlympusThe Confession The Confession (EP)The Faceless AkeldamaThe Faceless Planetary DualityThe Human Abstract NocturneUnearth III: In the Eyes of FireUnearth The MarchWinds of Plague The Great Stone War3.5 greatAcross the Sun Before the Night Takes UsAdagio Archangels in BlackArt By Numbers Reticence: The MusicalAvenged Sevenfold Avenged SevenfoldAvenged Sevenfold NightmareBetween the Buried and Me AlaskaDragonForce Sonic FirestormInto Eternity Dead or DreamingIron Maiden Piece of MindIron Maiden A Matter of Life and DeathObscura CosmogenesisPinkly Smooth Unfortunate SnortRhapsody of Fire Symphony of Enchanted LandsSlipknot IowaSum 41 ChuckSymphony X The OdysseySymphony X V: The New Mythology SuiteThe Black Dahlia Murder DeflorateVale of Pnath Vale of PnathWinds of Plague Decimate the WeakWith Passion In The Midst Of Bloodied Soil3.0 goodAbigail Williams In the Shadow of a Thousand SunsAtreyu The CurseAtreyu A Death-Grip on YesterdayAtreyu Congregation of the DamnedAvenged Sevenfold Sounding the Seventh TrumpetAvenged Sevenfold Hail to the KingBetween the Buried and Me The Great MisdirectConducting from the Grave RevenantsDragonForce Ultra BeatdownFleshgod Apocalypse OraclesInto Eternity The Incurable TragedyJeff Loomis Zero Order PhaseKoji Kondo The Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary SymphonyTo be honest this let me down a lot. There is a good selection of music ranging from the earliest of Zelda games all the way to Skyward Sword, but the drastic rearrangements of some of the old songs are a spit in the face to their original design. Put on Gerudo Valley for example and you won't even recognize it. Would have also preffered more tracks, since Ocarina of Time alone has a ton of memorable tunes. But at the end of the day it's still nice to hear some of the better Zelda songs finally orchestrated.Panic! at the Disco Pretty. Odd.Not a band I would normally dig, but this album was actually pretty good especially "She Had the World." Only thing I can really complain about is that very few songs have much energy. All of the material is pretty laid back and gets a bit boring if you listen to a large amount of the album in one sitting.Slipknot All Hope Is GoneSymphony X IconoclastWhat a huge letdown. The potential for some cool machine-esque sounds and layers to really add atmosphere to this man vs machine album went straight down the drain. Most songs sound similar with only a few standout tracks. This is Symphony X simply going through the motions. Putting out an average album from a band that normally delivers brilliance just isn't acceptable.The Black Dahlia Murder NocturnalThe Human Abstract MidheavenTrivium ShogunWretched (USA-NC) The Exodus of AutonomyNot anything too special. Very generic gothenburg melo-death metal plus breakdowns. Only thing worthwhile about the album were the also somewhat generic solos. The title track is worth checking out though.2.5 averageArch Enemy Rise of the TyrantAtreyu Suicide Notes and Butterfly KissesAtreyu Lead Sails Paper AnchorAugust Burns Red MessengersBullet for My Valentine Scream Aim FireBullets And Octane Song For The UnderdogEscape the Fate This War Is OursIced Earth Framing ArmageddonInto Eternity Into EternitySum 41 Half Hour Of Power2.0 poorSlipknot Mate.
