Genre: Symphonic Power Metal Opera
Quality: mp3 @ 320kbps
About: The Wicked Symphony sounds the most like "The Metal Opera Part III" that I've heard from Tobias Sammet since 2004's Edguy's "Hellfire Club." Tracks 2 and 3 are epically amazing, so you need to get it at the very least for those.
Angel of Babylon definitely shows his experimental side... while it is good, it is nowhere near many of his other albums, including TWS.
Anyway, here are both, for your own judgement. Personally, I believe releasing two completely different albums on the same day is a poor business move, but here they are. Buy them if you like them, delete them if you don't.
