Lingua Mortis Orchestra

[Fire breath]

Rage guys orchestral side project. Basically a less heavy Rage with classical orchestra. Sounds very good for me.

Peavy can do no wrong.

Sounds good. Although I could do without the female opera singer. I was never a fan of the whole "beauty and beast" opera singing with metal.

In general, I have enjoyed most of the Rage albums since Black In Mind but the last one, 21, left me unimpressed. So this gives me hope for the future. Their best albums remain XIII, Ghosts, Welcome to the Other Side. But anytime they work with the Lingua Mortis Orchestra, it's a treat.

Didn't realize that Lingua Mortis did stuff aside from Rage. They're usually the orchestra used on Rage albums/concerts. Sounds good. Rage can do no wrong.

...but the last one, 21, left me unimpressed...

Wow, personally, I thought 21 was fantastic. Maybe give it another listen. There's some killer stuff on there, and Smolski is technically ridiculous as always

Pulled this off eMusic and a 3 tracks in its everything 21 wasn't. Love it. If you liked XIII, Ghosts and the orchestral parts of other albums you'll love this. Orchestral but still *heavy* like Rage should be.

Oooo, just broke into a nice Smolski solo... this is going to be at or near the top of my year end list for sure!

Rage/Lingua Mortis was supposed to be streamed from Wacken, but kept getting pushed back and then not replayed at all. What a downer, was really looking forward to it.

If Nightwish is Disney metal, then LMO is Danny Elfman metal.

Great disc.
