[Gibbon]

Been looking for Fright night with no luck, still never checked private sellers, might have to though

 

[Symphony]

I must be one of the few people out there who just does not get or like any of this folk/viking/pirate type stuff......each to their own I guess but it really doesn't seem to do anything for me at all.

 

[Thematt202]

I don't mind it but only as a quick distraction from my preferred stuff (Power Quest!)!

 

[1928]

Stratovarius - Fright Night (First pressing CBS edition from 1989)

Nice one!

Stratovarius - Fright Night (First pressing CBS edition from 1989)

Nice one!

Only 10 Euro for it in like new condition with original jewel case. I was just lucky. Many used to swap the jewel case when it's over 20 years old but she has taken care of her CD's very carefully. Sometimes I miss those hard plastic cases which felt heavier than today's jewel cases. It was quality all the way.

The only way to get Fright Night is from private sellers. You only see the Columbia re-release edition on Ebay and Amazon.

And Heavens Gate is supposed to be In Control and not No Control. I mixed it with Innerwish's recent release.

EDIT: There should be a thread for disappointed albums. I was very disappointed with Stormwarrior's Heathen Warrior. It couldn't live up to the quality of the three first albums. Thank god for youtube!

Was thinking of buying charlemagne by the sword and cross by christopher lee, should have checked it out earlier but never got around to do it. But all the reviews of that album pretty much say it's crap, anyone here checked it out and if so, what do you think of it?

 

[Power_Metal_Dom]

As soon as symphonic metal and Sir Lee were mentioned in the same sentence I got this and I'm afraid to say it is rather disappointing. Most of the album is a history lecture half-spoken-sung by Saruman himself and any metal you do hear is generic and uninspiring.

 

[Gibbon]

That's pretty much what most review(er)s seem to say, guess shouldn't be my number one pritority right now then, as i'm kind of low on cash. I guess I could get it later this year when the follow up is released.

 

[Power_Metal_Dom]

Also to my surprise there's a follow up, called "Charlemagne: The Omen's of Death" will be released sometime this year and a musical based on the album is set to debut in 2013!

Ooh, Ensiferum? Is the flag just the artwork of the album? If so, that same flag is hanging on the wall of my bedroom right next to me good find!
