Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Addicting
You may listen to it once and think it just to be okay, but over time you may find yourself listenning to it more and more to the point that it is almost addicting. It is a masterpiece. Battlefield, Sadly Sings Destiny, and And Then There Was Silence are the best songs.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This is amazing

A Night at the Opera
Here's how it is- And Then There Was Silence is by far the most awesome song in the world, this is 14 minutes of epic guardian at their best and not even boring for a second, this song is completely worth the 15 bucks. All other songs are just frosting on the cake, plain and simple.

I hope this clears things up :)

Ironically, this was the last album I ended up receiving. I ordered "Twist in the Myth" and this one at the same time (after I had acquired all the remasters, and for some reason "Night at the Opera" took a week longer to arrive. So obviously, ...



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - They guys always amaze me!
Blind Guardian is one of those bands that I can listen to endlessly and never get bored of their music. The release of their "Night At The Opera" CD just strengthens that - the choral singing and the feel of being in an opera or in a majestic sort of place of happiness and thrill - that's a good feeling! I love listening to all Blind Guardian CDs in general but this CD has a really powerful feel with the layered vocals and guitars - like an army or something at full force! There's no stopping these ...
