Customer Reviews:
Another worthy addition to this series.......2006-06-30
Nuclear Blast is to be commended for continuing to produce this series of 'taster' albums. This being the third instalment of the Metal Dreams series listeners are starting to hear some of the same bands again but that's no bad thing. The advantage of Nuclear Blast putting out these discs periodically is that you can get a sample of newer product by a bunch of bands and they're also great for lending to friends so they too can acquire some knowledge of new bands in the Nuclear Blast stable.
A quick look at the track listing will let you know if you might be interested, names such as Hammerfall, Stratovarius, Iced Earth, Lacuna Coil, Nevermore and Opeth being fairly well known amongst the metal fraternity. It should be pointed out that these Metal Dreams albums generally showcase the mellower songs of many of these bands so anyone planning on throwing one of these discs on and having their ears blown off may be disappointed.
However sometimes it's these mellower tunes that show a bands ability to change gears and play with some feeling and restraint, so it's not always a bad idea to listen with open ears to such songs.
If you can pick this up cheaply it's a very good purchase. I can't rate it over three stars only because various artists albums invariably come off sounding like projects and your always going to get a number of turds amongst the gems and this album is no exception. But that's what the skip button is for!
