Just add 9 points and you're good-to-go.

Not a chance. It's a great album, but the goofy "dark" vocals keep it from being a perfect album.

Nothing to add, Steve, old boy?

Nothing to add there are plenty of bands that do the operatic sound better than these guys, if people like Nightwish that's fine I don't really care.

Damnit.

Inciting flame war fail. :sad:

Love this album. Slightly weaker than Century Child and tied with the Wishmaster as #2. But impact it had on symphonic power metal scene is unquestionable.

So by your 0 rating you feel that this album has no value whatsoever? Its not worthy of any points at all? Complete and utter shit? I am just asking because It seems like with you there is a straight line between excellent albums and shit albums with virtually no inbetween. What are the better bands that you refer to? I am not trying to fuck with you, I am honestly curious. You are entitled to your opinion, would just like for you to expand on it a bit.

Yeah, ts worthless shit in my opinion, but that's just it. If you like this more power to you, you could be listening to Five finger death punch after all.

I have a friend who thinks this way. Everything is either fucking amazing, or a worthless pile of shit and he hates it.

I'm sure it's no surprise to learn that he's also an idiot.

Then why don't you go back his fudge or something, I don't have anything else to say to some old curmudgeon that thinks Three days grace is good music. I said my piece if you like Nightwish thats fine, these guys have carved their own niche in this style of the music, been profitable, and made a lot of money in the process - good for them.

A person who is incapable of recognizing quality even if it's not to his or her own tastes is, typically, not very intelligent.

Personally I try my darndest best not to befriend idiots, but then that's just me.
