The Metal Opera II was a very important album in my early metal years. Still remebering listening to it on repeat and it was the first time I heard Bob Catley, David Defeis, Rob Rock among others. I somehow never liked the first metal opera nearly as much and the Scarecrow trilogy was a big letdown (except for some songs). On the last three albums Toby have redeemed the name for me.

4.Avantasia - Moonglow
