Yeah, I'm not really sure what they're trying to do with this album: It just sounds like a bunch of random songs that belong on different albums, with no coherency whatsoever, at least so far. I do like all the singles, though, so maybe the full album will make more sense, lol

I´ll give it a shot, but I can´t seem to enjoy Nile as much anymore after Dallas left. His vocals were unique.

Video for this comes on later but for now the song is already up:
This is probably my least favourite so far, but Simone's solo album is shaping up to be a very eclectic affair: all three songs dropped so far are very different and if you thought having Mark Jansen on this track would make it sound like Epica, you'd be very wrong. Some strong industrial vibes here.

Well this is unexpected, Blind Guardian has re-recorded Somewhere Far Beyond and it will be released in August as a limited three disc set (re-recorded album on CD1, live version of the whole album on CD2 and blu-ray as the third disc) as well as standard and digital editions.
They've done a music video for The Quest for Tanelorn: And I'm not too impressed. I mean it's Blind Guardian so it sounds good but it doesn't sound as good as the original does. It feels more polished and slick but this actually makes the song lose something and I expect that's going to be true of the entire release if this is anything to judge by.

I haven't played it yet and I'm already disappointed.
I listened Human. :||: Nature. again and it looks like for some odd reason I gave it four stars off my one listen years ago but that's had to be halved after the relisten. Even 2 still seems generous to be honest. I spent the whole thing wondering what Tuomas was thinking.

The song is pretty good, but you can barely hear Floor for about half the chorus, because whoever did the mix must have sabotaged her, as usual, LOL

I think I read somewhere last night that this is supposed to be the track that most sounds like Ayreon or Epica, so maybe there's other sounds going to be heard yet. There's certainly a lot more electronic sounds in this than I'd typically expect from either.
To be honest with you, I thought Arjen's last album as Supersonic Revolution felt a bit too much by the numbers and apart from some seventies hard rock nods felt very much like an Ayreon album with one singer. Even the last Star One album felt more like Ayreon than Star One to me. I loved it, and of course Star One was never that far removed sound wise from Ayreon but I felt the moving away from the core four singers set-up just pushed Revel in Time that much closer to being Ayreon by another name. He also has his new 'old' project Plan Nine out next week which sounds like it's going to be straight up hard rock/heavy metal which is a bit of a change of pace. But I haven't been wowed by a new Arjen album because it was different since The Gentle Storm. Golden Age of Music was the first Arjen album I didn't buy since I started listening to him.

Even after several listens I'm still not entirely sure what to make of it. Honestly, it feels less like her doing a solo porject, and more like Arjen just wrote an Ayreon track and threw heer voice over top of it. Obviously, it's good, but yeah, it doesn't really standout from his normal stuff, enough to be considered someone else's solo album, but I guess I'll wait and see what the whole album is like.

Simone Simons solo album and it's in collaboration with Arjen Lucassen? Sold.
Video doesn't premier on YouTube for another seven hours yet, but you can hear the song on Spotify already.

I ordered another CD with mine. Same P&P rate. Made it a little more economical.

As much as I want it I don't want to be shelling out around £25 for a CD inc the postage. No way does it cost that much to ship. It's just a way of upping the price of the CD. think I'll wait and see if Amazon UK list it.
