Well, I got it. I'm listening to it. And the reviews are correct. This is THE BEST NIGHTWISH EVER!! They really sound like a cohesive unit - a real band. Some have already (maybe jokingly) called their new sound an invention of a new musical style: Orchestral Movie Score Metal. I won't argue there.
However, as great as it is. It's just not fully clicking with me right now. I'm just not in the mood to immerse myself in their music. I've been too enraptured with some new Melodic Metal (DC Cooper, Pink Cream 69). So it's a little difficult to get in the grove they offer. But it's still awesome music none the less.

Did you import it or get it from a US distribution? If the latter, WHERE? I've only heard Nemo, which is cool, Planet Hell, which is like some kind of song written by the gods, and (Through controversy dictation) Wish I Had An Angel, which could quite possibly be the absolute best song I have ever heard in my or anyone elses lifetime.

Oh how convenient. A theory about God that doesn't require looking through a telescope.
