I've done a little CD shopping lately and have come across some real gems.
Ad Vitam Aeternam - Abstract Senses (Highly recommended if you like Tristania!)
Bride Adorned - Blessed Stillness? (Symphonic Power metal from Finland)
Masterplan - Back For My Life EP
Sonata Arctica - Reckoning Night
Within Temptation - The Silent Force
Therion - Sirius B/Lemuria
The Vision Bleak - The Deathship has a New Captain (Awesome awesome disc...German gothic metal, very different, picked this up from The End, but found out about them through Summer Breeze Open Air festival)
Elis - God's Silence, Devils Temptation (Gothic metal)
Definately some great music to listen to, so far the Ad Vitam Aeternam and The Vision Bleak are my two faves but in all fairness I haven't given the others the same # of spins in my CD player.
