    Yeah I know Ayreon - Arjen is a great musician but I think I like his other projects more... specifically The Gentle Storm with Anneke van Giersbergen.

    For metal operas I stay with Avantasia


    As for Elvellon... yeah, the Nightwish description probably isn't fair, but I was definitely thinking more Angels Fall First era, back when they were more understated.


    Meanwhile I'm hooked (again) on Samsara Blues Experiment - a German psychedelic/stoner band that honestly blows my brain. Of all the recent "retro" bands, they are one that just seems so... authentic. Dunno what it is but I really like it.

    Awesome fremetar by wxdruid.

    From the discomfort of truth there is only one refuge and that is ignorance. I do not need to be comfortable, and I will not take refuge. I demand to *know*.
