Blind Guardian have returned again with their
most complex, heaviest and I also believe longest album so far. "A Night At
The Opera" is one of the metal releases of 2002 that I have been looking
forward to the most and I was not to be disappointed with this new masterpiece
from the German Tolkien fans. The music continues in the same vein as on their
last album with a very thick sound, beautiful melodies and powerful choir
vocals. Hansi is doing his job better and better with each new release and I
can't do much else but lie back and enjoy. This is musical art at the highest
possible level and there are no other band like Blind Guardian out there
today. The only thing I would have liked to see a little bit more of is the
folky, slower passages from the "Nightfall..." album. There are plenty of
that here as well, it's just that they are often buried in the massive sound.
If you wanted Blind Guardian heavier and more powerful you can now see your
wish come true. I don't know if this is their best album so far but it is
definitely among them. I personally stick with the last album I
think.
