Yeah, not long before Nodtveidt died. A lot of people seem to dislike it because it sounds more like melodic death metal and has slightly catchy elements, which is the lamest excuse for disliking something I've ever heard.

I love melodeath and catchy metal.

I dislike Reinkaos because the songs are boring and sound phoned in - without any of the emotion and inspiration of the original albums. Just my opinion.

So you guys thought I was a massive Blind Guardian fan?

I just found this guy on Last.fm. Nearly 100,000 Blind Guardian plays. 33,000 plays of the same song. Makes my measly 3,000 BG plays seem like a joke.

My vote is on Sacred Worlds. The first two BG albums are kind of Helloween worship and don't stand out as much as their later material for me.

And it's one of their weakest songs if you ask me. Not a big fan of speed power metal.

Sear Bliss' Glory and Perdition

I second this one. It's already in my Album Covers RYM list.

An album cover from this year that deserves a shout as well is the new A Forest of Stars

Why? Blind Guardian is amazing.
How? I have no idea. 33,000 plays of a seven-minute song is almost half of a whole year.

She's pretty much the only pop artist whose overall career I care about. Besides her there's a couple Bruno Mars songs I like but that is it. That song "Get Lucky" was pretty good too but in pop years it's grandpa's music.
