Xandria became officially my Dreamkeepers!
When you listen to this album while thinking that it's the first with frontwoman Dianne on board; it's hard to feel it as a transition record. It is actually an over the top, impressive, majestic and EPIC effort from one of the worlds most promising bands in the sympho-metal scene. 'Nightfall', 'Until the End', 'Stardust', 'Little Red Relish', are just a few of the incredible tracks that will certainly take your breath away. However, if you want your life literally changed for good just listen to the title track 'Sacrificium' and experience 10 minutes of emotions as you've ever tasted. Kudos, Xandria! The future of this band looks brighter than ever!

It's literal, Nightwish comes back triumphant with this epic and diverse album, with some surprises here and there, like the religiously relevant"Weak Fantasy" or the hunting atmospheric sensation of "The Eyes of Sharbat Gula"; if you're a Symphonic Metal fan, this will certainly please your entire body. However, the one who takes the cake is definitly "The Greatest Show On Earth", just a few other songs on the scene can even get close to this 'opus perfectum' created by master Holopainen. 24 minutes of pure epicness and splendour.

Indeed, they were here
