I've come to stop trusting Noctuses' ratings honestly so this is probably better then what people make it seem.




can i ask why you'd ever trust anyone's ratings other than your own? go and make your own mind up.



Noctus: I actually like Anette as a vocalist, it's the approach and songwriting that bothers me here.




she's not a bad vocalist i agree but tuomas has just thrown her into the deep end here, she's nowhere near powerful enough to carry the themes of the album and she's trying too hard

I'd trust someone for the same reason people use a music review site. At one point we both seemed to have similar opinions and then i noticed a decline in ratings from you, it seems you've become rather harsh rating albums.

Like there are people on a site where I know they have good musical opinions ex. crysis,rasputin,deafmetal ect. all im saying is that ur abundance of low ratings like for celestial lineage and heritage have made me question whether I should see you as someone I can rely on for a similar opinion as mine.

That's what people have told me before lol. I don't know, I used to love cheesy symphonic stuff like this, but it really has to be amazing for me to like it nowadays.

Oceanborn and Wishmaster are straight up power metal.

Song of Myself is very dissapionting considering the fact that the band has written great epic tracks as beauty of the beast ,ghost love socre and poet and the pendulum and this songs is not of the same league.

Otherwise ,this album has a lot of excellent and catchy songs.

Whatever, Imaginaerum is great. You're not a fan of Nightwish if you don't like this album. You're not a fan of Nightwish to not understand that, number 1, its partly a movie score, and your dislike of Song of Myself because it sounds too much like a movie score makes zero sense to me. Number 2, 95% of everything Nightwish is partly a biography of Tuomas. All of their albums are pieces to a story. This is a new piece, I love the new piece. I love learning more about the Dead Boy, the Owl, the Wolves and all kinds of other characters that are mentioned so often in Nightwish albums, with no names and no outright recognition. Poet and the Pendulum is Tuomas's fantasy of his perfect death, or what he feels like he should be subjected to, Song of Myself is his thoughts and feelings and imaginings. Fucking perfect. All the other songs are mini albums in themselves, there's so many layers in them. The only qualm I have is there's two many chrouses, but they still blow my mind.

Overfanboyism.

Awesome review, but I disagree. I thought this album was great, mainly because I'm a nightwish fanboy.

I never got into Nightwish before because Tarja was a vocalist I would grit my teeth at, and DPP was simply a mediocre

album to me.



This, however, I like. Imaginaerum is filled with a lot of great hooks and I never pass up a Tim Burton-esque record. Then

again, since I hardly listened to any former albums, I don't exactly know what a 'generic' Nightwish album sounds like.
