To all you Kamelot fans,

I'm saving up for all the killer CDs coming out soon, and I have enough to get one CD right now. I've heard great things about "Epica" and "The Black Halo," but would you hands down pick one over the other if you had to make the choice? I have "Karma" and it is freekin' AWESOME! Thanks in advance.

I'd pick The Black Halo over Epica, hands down... much stronger album all around, IMO.

 

[Matt]

Yes, theBH was great.

 

[J-Dubya 777]

Yes, theBH was great.

Thirded! (Although, I prefer Kahn more with Conception. MUCH better guitar playing....Sorry Ptah!)

 

[greenaxer]

Hehe. Thomas Youngblood's awesome though. Great riffs and an awesome sense of melody too.

 

[Iced Dog]

Thirded!

Fourthed...Black Halo all the way...c'mon greenaxer, just DO EET...and if you're not satisfied with your purchase, you may virtually bitchslap us.

Fourth Legacy is their best, IMO. Closely followed by The Black Halo.

I have been getting into Adagio, currently. Excelent band.

Really? Because honestly, the fourth legacy had like, 1 1/2 interesting songs on it. Gotta be the worst album they've done with Kahn.

Hehe, okay, you gave me permission!

I really love "Wander" off of Epica, though. I couldn't stop listening to it yesterday for some reason. Guess I needed to relax and that song just did it.

 

[Liquid Tension]

Get Black Halo...

 

[Detective Clarence Beauregard]

I enjoy The Black Halo far more than Epica. In fact, I don't like Epica much at all. Karma blows it away, in my opinion.

 

[Phanto]

Siege Perilous > All.

I mean King's Eyes, The Expedition, Where I Reign, Parting Visions and Siege. it's their best songs on one album!

No, The Fourth Legacy must be their best album. "Honestly", there are at least 4 awesome tracks, and no filler tracks (unlike Epica or TBH) on this album.

Huh, i never did think much of that album. I don't think much of epica or tbh either thoguh. Karma is the greatest album by kamelot, followed closely by siege perilous

 

[Time-Machinist]

I have never met or seen a person who likes Karma best, and The Fourth Legacy last before. Anyway, yeah Karma is another "best" album of Kamelot i think. Sometimes hard to compare. And Siege Perilous is very medieval, very tasty. I also love that one. In fact i see Epica as the weakest album with Khan...

 

[Phanto]

so I'm kind of getting into Rush. What albums are regarded as their best?

 

[Horus]

2112

 

[Tubbs]

No, Hemispheres

 

[Detective Clarence Beauregard]

Moving Pictures and Permanent Waves.

 

[Tubbs]

NO, HEMISPHERES!!!!11

Probably Moving Pictures by people that aren't all into progressive rock though.

 

[Phanto]

Thanks I'll probably check them all out.
