Tarja's voice is as always top, she sings on ihrerm album in every possible emotional states / moods and puts her voice is as multifaceted as never before a. That to me is already a very big plus! With "My Winter Storm" provides us with Tarja off her first solo album, and as such you should look at it. In MWS is Tarja's voice in the foreground and the songs were built upon. It is available for almost every taste a suitable track, almost like a catalog where everyone can choose the right. It may be anderst than many might have expected, or even unusual when you have in mind has the music of Nightwish where Tarja sang to the approximately 10 years. Only Tarja would just not Tarja if she do not from time to time surprise. It would be damn boring if she would always do what their fans expect. In MWS very good approaches songwriting are quite recognizable, but they have not yet been completely implemented perfectly, and a clearly defined direction are found. But Do not worry! For me it is now almost 1 year lasted until this CD arrived there is where they should and now she is one of my favorite CDs. Expected for former Nightwish fans the typical Gothic or Symphonic Metal is the CD the wrong address, - better listen closely before buying! The songs are complex created with an orchestra and need time to act, some pieces are rather bulky set out like "Lost Northern Star" and "My Little Phoenix", they just do not work after a short time, for example. "Ciaran's" Well needed fucking with me long! Now I guess this track more so. He comes live in concert with long musical intro Metal damn good and is a good number for headbanging! The song "Oasis", "Sing For Me" and "Boy And The Ghost" create a proper atmosphere goosebumps. The only downside for me is Poison. The piece should never have been included in such a brave and smoothly ironed way - Live version has umpteen times better listened to and was much presented snotty. Poison, I would not have taken on the album, rather than bonus for a single because I feel the track rather disturbing to MWS. That is probably again a matter of taste! On the new CD I'm more than excited because MWS is a strong Soloalbum- with promising, groundbreaking directions. Now we can already look forward to once Tarja's new song "Enough", the record company would soon be more accurate, according to blog known.
