| Listened to it in its' entirety in the morning. Pretty good, no track there that I found skipable. Shame Floor didn't use her full range more, but I still consider her way better than Anette. As expected most of the spoken lines by Dawkins were in the final 24 minute song. Edemah Ruh btw is inspired by Patrick Rothfuss Kingkiller trilogy (part 3 still saldy missing tho). Definitely going to see them live in December. > Well, folks, Friday will be a very interesting day, > because that will be the day on which Finnish metal band > Nightwish release their new album in Europe (other > countries will have to wait a few days longer - by next > Tuesday the album should be available everywhere, > however). > > Now, I've always been a big fan of Nightwish and I know > that some people here like them too.
