As a total Dream Theater fanatic who has seen the band five times in concert (including the 20th anniversary at radio city), as well as a musician myself - I must say that this is my favorite D.T. studio album so far.

For me, the high-point of the Disk is "The Ministry Of Lost Souls". It is a true masterpiece and an amazingly moving and beautiful song. Another one of my favorites is the two-part epic "In the Presence of Enemies". It is a typical, straight-up Dream Theater type song with great guitar playing and beautiful melodies.

This Album has somthing for everyone: a ballad, old-school metal, pop, Nu-metal (Forsaken) and your typical dramatic, complex progressive rock.

There is somthing else that I love about Dream Theater - besides the music itself. ... Read More

In my opinion, this cd is equal to Moving Pictures. the quality of the song writing....Great guitar work, cutting edge and positive vibe on the sound style. I've been listening to this cd on an almost weekly basis since i purchased it 12 years ago, I can't recommend it enough!

Kamelot's latest offering, "Ghost Opera: The Second Coming" (GOTSC) boasts a delightful selection of complex, emotional compositions that showcases not only the superb writing skills (Khan/Youngblood) but superior musicianship of all the band members. The music conveys a strong kinship and respect the band members have for one another. Something that is rare in the music industry, but when talent such as Kamelot's becomes a united force, that talent explodes giving the listener a truly magical experience. GOTSC is a wonderful illustration of this magic. Listeners are treated not only to a studio release replete with videos, but also a second CD covering a live concert recorded in Belgrade, Serbia. I can only hope that Kamelot will release a DVD of that concert.
Kamelot is a blend of power metal laced ... Read More

This album is perfect. It's all there: killer guitar riffs, awesome lyrics, great death vocals, beautiful clean vocals, untouchable acoustic work, and even a beautiful piano solo piece.

My favorites are 'In Mist She Was Standing', 'The Twilight is my Robe', and 'Forest of October'.

The only Opeth album that I've truly been able to call anything less than spectacular is 'Ghost Reveries,' even though it's a very enjoyable album. This is the best band on the planet.

While I was in HMV back in September, I saw this on the DVD rack, and being the Maiden fanboy I am, I so HAD to buy this. I've been a Maiden fan for over 2 years, and still am, and always adding to my Maiden library. Maiden are my favorite band, so I bought this. And this definitely is worth owning for sure!! 2 discs worth of material nobody has seen until they own this DVD. You get a bunch of concerts, TV interviews, rare performances you'll never get anywhere else. What more could you expect?

Below is a brief summary of what's included:

-LIVE AT THE RAINBOW (30 minutes)
This is the band's first video they ever recorded. It was recorded and released sometime after the Debut album was released, and features at-the-time newcomer to the band Adrian Smith. Filmed at the Rainbow theatre in London, ... Read More

the mars volta walked to my house and sat on my porch. the mars volta started smoking something. the mars volta knocked on my door but didn't stand up. I opened the door and then closed the door and then sat on the porch next to the mars volta. we didn't say anything for a while. the mars volta exclaimed, "e-e-e-eyes!" it was OK. I knew that the mars volta was OK.

This is one of my favorite Iron Maiden albums. The musical qualities are definitely there. The lyrics are insightful as well. Not a bad moment to be had on this disk. Up the Irons!

What is this supposed to be? Now I know these guys are incredible and all but I am totally confused. Maybe if I were ten years younger and stoned / trippin out of my mind it might be a bit more entertaining.

Very visual, they really take their time with the cinematography. Commentary is kinda stupid but funny also.

Glad I didn't spend very much.


They are due for a live performance DVD.

"Gamma Ray" is well identified as the band of Godfather of euro power metal Kai Hansen (ex "Helloween"). This is the third live album from the German outfit following "Skeletons in the Closet" (2003). A 2CD set including a total of 22 songs mostly concentrating on the post -Ralf Scheepers*- era.

This release stands as a momentum celebrating the band's first headlining North American tour of 2006 (NOT 2007) recorded at the "Medley" in Montreal, Canada. What hardcore fans should probably keep in mind is that the show capture here is in support of the "Majestic" studio album, not of the current "Land of the Free 2" opus. In an attempt to update the package the band has included four songs recorded during the current 2008 European tour.

Given that it has merely been five years since the last "...Ray" double live album with virtually ... Read More
