At first I was a little skeptical about the new singer was concerned. But after I heard the CD, this impression was blown away. Annette fits in my opinion much better than in the band Tarja. Tarja was always on top and everything focused on them. Now the relationship between the band members is more balanced and that makes the band for me somewhere more sympathetic. The vocals of Annette I find also better than Tarja. This opera whining went sometime just not anymore. Many now say "Annette sings so 0-8-15 as the and the." She sings unlike Tarja, but in a complete package with the 4 guys it's just great. I need not say much to Technisches. Lonely class !!
