Free Music Review: Little sign of the power to come but some interesting tales nonetheless
Hit: 3 Stars
Having heard this album a number of times over it's sad to say it's not really lodged in my head at all. Certainly the most meek and mild of the Nightwish albums it has some lovely aspects musically such as The Carpenter which rides an interesting combination of melody and instrumentation and also Nymphomaniac Fantasia and an album with some very interesting lyricisms. Actually interesting is probably a polite way of saying that the English as second language issue was most pronounced here than perhaps any other Nightwish album. And really this album has the band not only wrestling with English but also with what direction and what sort of band they want to be so there is a lot of time doing the fey faery folk thing mixed with attempts at profound lyrics delivered in Tarjas quite unique and very young voice.
Ultimately this album is more of a museum piece though not in a nasty way, but it is probably best viewed as a sort of pre awareness Nightwish where the band make most use of acoustic style structures than on any of their other albums to date. And the charming naivety does work a certain magic but as I say, this is an album that were it not for what the band went on to achieve would almost certainly not still be of any interest nowadays. Three stars for this interesting though not brilliant album.
