Good, but partly unnecessary nested

After an orchestral intro that just over 7 minute "Monopoly On Truth" then good choruses, again a stick use, Grunts, Orchestralpart, ballad-use, hectic Geschwurbel and finally even a start with fierce speed, the first vocal you are midtempo-heavy itself, short guitar solo.

Does not sound excited? True, there is just too much cobbled together without something stuck in the ear, which except for "Monopoly ..." even the theme song or z. B. "Stay The Course" particularly comes into play!
In addition, falls in some songs that Madame Simons probably somewhat overestimated: Mostly she wants but a little "too high" (just the opener, is very striking and oblique) beyond what then more like "cries of pain" sounds.

The partly disjointed song structures on some tracks have a total negative impact on the overall impression from, because they are somehow "wanted" trimmed to change, and some blasts seem just a little out of place. With "Deepwater Horizon", "Storm The Sorrow" and "Serenade Of Self-Destruction" but are also three hits right at the start.

Unlike "Imaginaerum" Nightwish course much harder, and by the very successful choral inserts classified Lightly higher. After I had initially awarded four stars, I must still correct to three stars.

It's not just a matter of pulling the compositions by an unnecessary break after another in the length, but the song relevant orientation, and has failed decidedly better example in the new "Amberian Dawn"!
