LEGENDARY TALES

If you buy any Rhapsody album, buy this one first. Alot of people get put off by their more recent "hollywood metal" albums, as they can admittedly be a bit OTT! But this album is their most raw and excelent effort and displays musicianship well, without being overpowered by too many orchestrations. Classic songs, such as LAND OF IMORTALS were years in the making. They seem to rush to write albums much more quicky nowerdays, and with less impressive reults. I couldn't say this was a masterpiece of prog rock, as it is neo-classical power/speed metal. If you like your music HARD n' HEAVY and totaly over emotinal, THIS IS AN ESSENTIAL MUST-HAVE!
