Title: Too "catchy".
Review: I give this album two stars because the band members are so talented. My overall opinion of this album is not very high. I have never heard anything else by Blind Guardian; I listen mostly to heavier stuff. The musicians do have a lot of talent which draws me from giving this one star but a lot of the songs are just too "catchy" for my tastes. For example, I never owned any Iron Maiden albums but Bruce Dickinson has a great voice. I like to hear vocals done in an aggressive way. Hansi isn't that bad a singer but this is much lighter than what I normally go for. Just listen to something like "Precious Jerusulam" to see what I'm talking about. "The Maiden and the Minstrel Knight" is perhaps a little more interesting but still I prefer my music heavier. Click on my username to see what I am into if you want.
