Pretty much, although five years ago I would've voted for Century Child.

I can't with you guys

[MirrorMask]

The first choice is especially hard. They're hardly the same band, basically. How do you compare an album full of youthful exuberance, with a classical singer, to an album released at the peak of their maturity with not one but TWO different singers? I could have voted either way.

Imaginaerum is btw my favorite album of them so by definition I will always prefer it to anything else.

Imaginaerum is having a resurgence in acclaim, it was ranked as the top NW album in two publications that I read just recently, by all the staff members. I kinda can't divorce it from the context of Tuomas making a movie about himself

Wishmaster
Century Child
