This is one of the first album's I got, I was 15. Went to go on holidays the week after and I just couldn't stop listening to this album.
I kept listening to either:
Entire The Poet and the Pendulum,
Cadence of Her Last Breath,
Master Passion Greed solo,
Sahara intro,
Last of the Wilds.
These songs blown me away. And after listening to this album I searched for more Nightwish on the web..
Now I don't like this album as much anymore because I now know Tarja's beautiful voices in several older albums like Oceanborn.
This was still a great album and I listened to it for quite a while. I'm rating this a 7.5

Solo I've mentioned from Master Passion Greed from 2:34 to 3:25

Oh, I love this album of Nightwish, Sahara has such a good intro, I can't deny it either.
This album is great even though I don't have it (Download ) .
I just think I miss the Escapist on this album, one of Anette's best songs..
8/10

Yup, that's what I always thought.. Why isn't The Escapist on it..

I have the 2-disc edition of that album, but I never listen to the instrumental songs.
Sahara is a great song indeed, I mostly listen to Poet and the Pendulum, Amaranth and Cadence of her last breath.

I also miss Escapist on the album, it's my favourite NW song with Anette.

2 discs? O.o For crying out loud why do I always get the crap.

Crap???
Like I just said, that second disc is a little unnecessary for me so you do have a good album .

Okay woot, I'm happy again.
