shitty review

great review, definitely better than the ridiculous duplicate present in the database. as for the album, it's not among the best of Nightwish, but it's still a good effort; standout tracks include "Angel Fall First," "Astral Romance," and especially "Tutankhamen," which is a true masterpiece (the arrangements are masterful; I don’t understand why many have criticized it). "Lappi" (what a journey!) and "Know Why the Nightingale" (which I believe is the best of the bunch) also come out well. for the rest, it's clear that they were still inexperienced—Tarja's voice wasn't fully matured yet, the production left something to be desired, and Tuomas would have done better to avoid his contribution to the microphone. overall, a solid 3 stars.

horrible review in the form of a shopping list. definitely failed.

Overall, a solid 3 stars.

I'm raising the average since in the first quick comment I made a mistake and put 4.

the closing role of this grand album *

the undisputed masterpiece of the band, I adore this album and over time I've worn it out! ice queen in particular was an incredible piece, among my favorite songs of all time, and the video is beautiful too. fantastic the title track ... our farewell is of indescribable beauty, caged stands out for Sharon's particularly unusual interpretation, with the promise and never ending story although nice pieces bring the level down a bit, the latter has always reminded me of some productions by the gathering and the dreamside, excellent the triplet deceiver of fools, spectacular strings and soulful singing. very nice also the intro and the subsequent, I would dare say "cinematic" dark wings where excellent accompaniments stand out along with another great interpretation by den Adel. the calm in perfect harmonie best serves the role of closing this magnificent album. the best of WT. the review, however, is very poorly done, extremely short and full of mistakes.

cute album, nothing more, much much inferior to the masterpiece mother earth, but still sufficient.. it has been seen how over time they have evolved to become one of the most representative bands of the genre.
I agree on restless, definitely the best track of Enter, an authentic masterpiece.
appreciable enter, although the production is very lacking (like the whole album which is certainly not mixed well), the growl doesn’t leave a mark (I completely share the future choice to abandon growling), pearls of light and deep within take a slight backseat, with gatekeeper returning to decent levels, the same goes for grace, masterfully interpreted by sharon, and with very worthy accompaniments, definitely the track with more depth after restless. excellent also the instrumental and epic blooded, good closing with candles.
as for the review itself, definitely failed, I quote blackmore, sparse and useless, to a reader unfamiliar with the album it would provide no help at all.
