Dark Passion Play - How do you rate it?
5/5. I was a bit hesitant about this album as I couldn't imagine how they would sound without Tarja but they proved they could overcome it.

Re: Dark Passion Play - How do you rate it?
4/5 I rarely give a 5 for any album There's always some improvement that needs to be done in my eyes It's a great album but songs like Meadows of Heaven and Eva let it down, especially MoH. I really detest that song
Re: Dark Passion Play - How do you rate it?
I like both of those songs. I guess everyone has their own opinion though and all I can do is respect them.

Re: Dark Passion Play - How do you rate it?
Love this album, so another 5/5 from me. However, I'm not that into songs like Master Passion Greed especially, and For The Heart I Once Had sometimes gets to me, but the rest is pretty much flawless.

5/5 I like this album very muc. It's perfect. Anette is very good replacement for Tarja. I like her voice and it fits with Marco's voice well. Musically is this album super though....

That's a good point. When you listen the the instrumental cd, you realise how much has gone into each song.

yeah,that's right...at the first time,Amarant sounds like a simple song to you...but when you listen to instrumentals_dudley wrote:That's a good point. When you listen the the instrumental cd, you realise how much has gone into each song.

Re: Dark Passion Play - How do you rate it?
5/5 of ocurse!
here they show they are a band, with music over the singers and stuff
I mean, they prove they can stand without Tarja or whatever singer else, cos is the music inself what made this band! IMO !
and to me, Anette made a great job here!!! ^^

Re: Dark Passion Play - How do you rate it?
I really love this album but give it 4/5 because of songs like Meadows of Heaven and Cadence of Her Last Breath. I don't like either of these songs much, especially COHLB because I think that sounds like Evanescence and I can't stand them.
The rest of the album is brilliant though.

4/5
It's not my favorite Nightwish album but it has it's moments. The Poet And The Pendulum is definitely one of their very best.

Re: Dark Passion Play - How do you rate it?
Any album that has The Poet and The Pendulum and The Islander deserves 5/5...but I docked cause of Cadence of her last breath. It's good...just not Nightwish good.

Re: Dark Passion Play - How do you rate it?
What? I love NW (old era, of course).
But I cant stand their new singer, SO, I cannot stand their new album. I think the voice of that girl is really poor.
Only my opinion.

I think that it's a huge improvement on Once. But I think that all their albums are an improvement on Once.

Re: Dark Passion Play - How do you rate it?
I'd give DPP 5/5 because it is amazing. I love Anette, she's brought a whole new aspect to the band, and she's at least nice to them as well.
Re: Dark Passion Play - How do you rate it?
4/5
It's still a great album, but I don't feel it has quite the magic as Nightwish's four middle releases (Oceanborn, Wishmaster, Century Child, Once).
I do think that Tarja's rich voice gave the music a more mature and darker sound, as opposed to Anette's voice, which I do like, and I think she has her own unique charm, but too me it also sounds a bit thinner and more childish. However, I don't think it's Anette's voice that brings the album down a score from the others for me.
The thing with this album that makes it harder for me to get into is that it doesn't really have it's own unique, unified atmosphere like all their other albums do, which is something I always like. Another thing is that I think Toumas was simply trying way too hard with this album, both lyrically and musically...I think DPP is perhaps a bit overdone, which made it lose some of it's natural magic and innocence.
Still, there are some great tracks (Cadence Of Her Last Breath, TPATP, Sahara, etc), and I ironically love the B-sides (The Escapist and While Your Lips Are Still Red).

Re: Dark Passion Play - How do you rate it?
I went with 4.
I like it but I'm just not too fond of some of the songs.
Just got a bit bored with "Cadence of her last breath" and "Eva" I listen to those two very rarely if at all.
Top five imo;
TPATP
Whoever brings the night.
Bye bye beautiful.
Last of the wilds.
For the heart I once had.

Re: Dark Passion Play - How do you rate it?
3/5
I was dissapointed by it. I heard a lot of mainstream in the cd and could only withstand Anette's high pitch vocals for only aa small amount at a time.
They lyrics were pretty good. Songs such as Sahara and 7 Days to the wolves were great but Eva and Meadows of Heavens were just painful to listen to.
