After the convincing success of the second album, "Wishmaster", and Γ¬ consequent extensive tours, Nightwish now release a nice intermediate album. Γ¬ This c.d. features a great cover version of the classic title-track plus two Γ¬ new songs ("Tenth man down" and "Away"), that stylistically set forth where Γ¬ the predecessor left off and that should please all fans. Additionally we Γ¬ get a re-recording of "Astral romance", that in my opinion would not have Γ¬ been necessary, plus a total of six songs that were recorded live. And this Γ¬ is where it becomes clear that Nightwish can absolutely convince also on Γ¬ stage and perform powerful and heavy alike. The opera-like vocals of front-Γ¬ lady Tarja may still be personal taste, but once fallen in love with that, Γ¬ you will have to hear this album. By the way: the album is also available on Γ¬ DVD.
