Good Grief
I love TSO but this new album is dead boring. Seriously.
What makes me the angriest is the shameless Savatage ripoffs. Yes, I know it was formed by Savatage members eons ago but usually the TSO albums do their own thing and maybe have a Savatage song as a bonus track.
So not the case with the new album. It's littered with Savatage songs.
I've counted 5 off the top of my head: Prelude to Madness, Temptation Revelation, Mozart & Madness, Believe (which is a bonus track), and When the Crowds Are Gone.
And that's just the first time through. I'm sure I'll find more.
The annoying thing is some of those steals are renamed songs. "Prelude to Madness" is now "The Mountain", "Mozart & Madness" is now "Mozart & Memories", etc.
I've waited 6+ years for this?
