So the Avantasia - albums are now quite a while in my CD collection and you will always find its way into my CD player. How the heck to be otherwise? - Who knows these two albums, who knows what I'm talking. Those who do not yet possess these albums, should as soon as possible to change something about it, if they do not want to miss a small piece of musical history. Actually, I got the whole praise and euphoric reviews here on Amazon and also reviews in ... I know where ... actually everywhere, where it was written on these discs, somehow considered a bit exaggerated and I thought: Yes, I know Tobi Sammet (Schaffer of Avantasia work) is an incredibly creative guy and Edguy (the main strip Sammet's) is really great, but that it can not be but that he has created with the Avantasia project as something excessively great. Those were my thoughts about over and over again, very positive and laudatory critiques and reviews regarding this Metal-operas. I put my CDs so on - and ... was disabused. I can not describe it exactly, but somehow you get the feeling that someone has met a great desire and really a lot of, a lot of love (and probably as much or more time) has put into this project. And so it is. Sammet had this idea, a metal opera with several Gastvocalisten and musicians, already years before the actual realization. I mean, in the beginning I got the CDs "just" listened how to stop the so usually makes when At length a CD ;-) And that alone was already listen simply overwhelming and the first time I thought, ... wow ... great, the second time ... man, the wheel is super ... the third time ...- short: The more you listen to the disc, the better it is - and that's at far from being in every album so! But the absolute roar or the absolute amazement to get only when the story (which is summarized in the booklet to find) reads this. Wow - really, then you just have to believe in the ingenuity and creativity of Tobias Sammet's his. To understand the general action of the fantasy story, one must also know the history of this (of course, also in the booklet printed), since the first song rises practically in the middle of the adventurous part of the story. I could now briefly explain the action, but instead of doing this, I suggest you simply: Buy this part or these "parts", so the Metal Opera 1 and 2. What is better, you can then decide for themselves anyway. - As in many cases, is also here divided - in only one I think are all "Avantasia - The Metal Opera (1 u 2.)" - Owners agree: Both are absolutely great and very, very hard to beat .. . Oh well - now I'll have sometimes to enthusiatischen fanatics out: These discs are absolutely outrageous !!! As I said: Lest you the story behind it through, because at least then overwhelmed since their - I can not imagine me that it should be different. If you are satisfied with the discs, you can sometimes listen to the Edguy-discs, although is a bit (really just a bit), another style (not just "Metal Opera"), but also absolutely great! It really seems all hand and foot touches what this artist. So then: stay ... whatever you want (best: heavy)
