Kamelot Ghost Opera

With the precision of a clockwork the American/Norwegian quartet KAMELOT has been releasing its albums since 1995 now and in the course of the years has developed into one of the most original and best bands of the genre. The last album “Epica“ in 2003 had without a doubt been the most ambitious epos to date, as they took on the heavy stuff in form of Goethe’s “Faustus” to realise. And with “The Black Halo” they take up this theme once more and combine it with own experiences and views, which results in another very deep experience, which you can interpret in a myriad of ways, which just adds to the fascination of this album…

Eternity is the first album of the Power Metal band Kamelot. It's also the first of the two the band recorded with Mark Vanderbilt doing the vocals…

"Dominion" is the second album of Kamelot and the last with Mark Vanderbilt on vocals and Richard Warner on drums. The band uses the same music approach as in the first album, "Eternity". The album is not more mature than "Eternity", it could be titled as a sibling to that album. Probably most of the tracks of the two albums were composed at the same period of time…

Kamelot's "The Fourth Legacy" is a great album of half Progressive, half Power Metal with a big keyboard presence. I find this album has so much going for it. I find it balances things so well, with Progressive elements abound in each song and excellent use of keyboards which meld so well into the structure and play their part in creating each song and making it unique…
