I really like Kamelot, a band which knows in my opinion how to mix the puissance of European Power Metal with the Heavy Metal from USA. It's really good because Kamelot is unique and even if some of their songs are really "easy" on a side, it always works and it's always cool to listen to this band really. After a magisterial trilogy ("Karma", "Epica" and the "Black Halo") the new release "Ghost Opera" was really awaited by the fans of the band and well even if it's a good album, I have to say that I'm a bit disappointed this time. I will let you know why right now.

A long time ago we were looking forward to the "Epica" album, an album like "Karma" but better. The same thing happened with "Ghost Opera". All of us, looking for an album like "The Black Halo" but better. But this time, I believe, things are completely different. I think that we can't compare Ghost Opera to another of Kamelot's album. The reasons are explained below...

11 THE BEST SONG HERE.

This was actually the first Kamelot album I got into and I used to think it was amazing. Then I checked out the band's back catalogue ...

Turns out "Love You To Death" is the only one that still moves me on this.

How do Kamelot top The Black Halo? They do something completely different. Ghost Opera was the first Kamelot album i bought on release and it felt new, fresh and exciting. Years later that sheen has been lost thanks to some repetitive follow ups but despite not quite matching the glory of its predecessors it is still a more than worthy successor.

First Kamelot album and I thought it was enjoyable. Excited to look through their higher rated albums. Blucher is my personal favourite of this one.

Not as good as The Black Halo. Eden Echo is a solid song.
