WOW, great tunes! If you haven't heard about this, you may want to pick it up. Nuclear Blast 20 year Into The Light 2cd set. Here is the description:

The label from Donzdorf, Germany, turns 20 in 2007 – and "Into The Light" is one of the company's first presents, given by no one else than RAGE composer and multi instrumentalist Victor Smolski. It was him who composed, arranged and recorded the album, with all in all ten songs based on a thrilling, solid Power Metal foundation. But the real highlights are the participants behind the microphones: Victor gathered a conglomeration of ten singers whose bands have been signed to NUCLEAR BLAST in the past 20 years or still are on the label's roster, among them Hansi Kürsch of BLIND GUARDIAN, NIGHTWISH's former singer Tarja Turunen, EDGUY's Tobi Sammet and HELLOWEEN'S Andi Deris. All together, the NUCLEAR BLAST ALLSTARS created a haunting and remarkable album, reflecting different shades of musical emotions – hard & thrashy ('Bloodsuckers'), heavy & modern ('Eternally'), bombastic ('Death Is Alive') or catchy & powerful ('In The Picture'). Discover new shades and qualities of your favourite singers and enjoy this brilliant anniversary album together with your friends and NUCLEAR BLAST! As a special gift, "Into The Light" will be released as double-CD, featuring a bonus disc with classics, rare tracks and brand new songs. Also, watch out for "Into The Light"'s dark twin "Out Of The Dark", coming for you in the second half of 2007… Tracklist Dirty Wings (feat. Tobias Sammet - EDGUY) Terrified (feat. Peter “Peavy” Wagner - RAGE) Ruling The World (feat. Tony Kakko - SONATA ARCTICA) Death Is Alive (feat. Mats Leven - THERION / KRUX) Bloodsucker (feat.

The album should really be called "This Is What Rage Would Sound Like With Different Singers".....other than the track with Peavy :) Overall it's a cool album with some good stuff on it, especially the track with Schmier
