SYMPHONY OF ENCHANTED LANDS

This is NOT a progressive rock album, but there's some progressive parts. Even I don't count this album in the progressive music, it's not poor album. Italian way to express english is kind of ridiculous, but Lione's voice is majestic. Turilli is very talented guitarist and his classical parts is wellplayed and sounds somehow fresh. Straropoli is one of the bests keyboardist in the world. His speed and technique is very high.

Epicus Furor: Classical introsong, but includes some progressive parts. 8/10

Emerald Sword: Nothing progressive, but very gripping power metal. 8/10

Wisdom Of The Kings: Same as previous song. 8/10

Beyond The Gates Of Infinity: I Like this song lot. This song starts very creepy and progressive keyboardintro and mad guitar fills it. SO COOL! 9/10

The Dark Tower Of Abyss: This intro is so used, but rest of the song is very listenable. 8/10

Lyrics and song names are amusing, but don't kill the ambience of this album. Classical and majestic. If you like Nightwish you will like this.
