Yeah, I'd like a tip, thanks! I own only Dawn of Victory.

OK Jelena. My favourite Rhapsody album is Rain of a Thousand Flames. It's like an alternative ending of their concept story, and it's not a happy end. It's lower priced and still 42 minutes long, so that might be a plus. It's a very story-driven album too.

But if you want more in-your-face-epic-metal, you might like Power of the Dragonflame and The Frozen Tears of Angels.

More symphonic albums: Symphony of Enchanted Lands part II (still has some speed, but alot "cleaner"), Triumph or Agony, The Cold Embrace of Fear (also lower priced, yet 35 minutes). Maybe I should also mention Symphony of Enchanted Lands right here, it has their most popular track Emeral Sword on it. Then there's also Legendary Tales, which is a nice album but clearly a debut.

But seriously, go for Rain of a Thousand Flames. It has a great piece of narration on it (Tears of a Dying Angel), a short and fast song (title track) and two over 10 minute songs that still can't bore me

Allright, I'll trust you and get Rain of a Thousand Flames. I'm guessing that, if you continued with your tips, we'd get to the whole discography.

That should be your goal too

That IS my goal, but... Take it easy!

There's a new album on your to buy-list, From Chaos To Eternity.

Listening to it for like the fourth, fifth time, and I like it. It needs some time to land though.

As for many other albums and bands. That's fine with me.

What? What?!?!? What's going on with Rhapsody of Fire?
They are splitting up and then there will be two Rhapsody bands? I'm confused

As far as I understand, Rhapsody of Fire will go on without Luca, and Luca's new band will be called Rhapsody.

So Luca's Band will be called Rhapsody and Alex' Band will be called Rhapsody of Fire?
They get a new second guitarist and a new bassist according to their homepage. It feels a little bit odd to read those news short after they played after Wacken
