The Masters Of Symphonic Epic Metal

Review Score: (10/10)
Superb!!! Giving this album less than five stars?? Blasphemy! I can't believe the stupid excuses people give to explain their less than 5 stars rating. Let's face it, the medieval lyrics fit this type of music perfectly, So how can you complain about that? I don't know why the lyrics bother everybody so much. Blind Guardian are writing fantasy lyrics too, and nobody complains about it. Read the booklet you may find the story interesting. and even if you don't, who cares when the music is so great? I can't see a reason giving this less the 5 stars, the song writing and performance is absolutley top notch! It is like nothing you ever heard before. Highly highly recommended to all music fans.
