Review by David Chidende

Imaginaerum, the seventh studio album by the Finnish symphonic metal band Nightwish, is a spectacular masterpiece that takes the listener on a journey through the realms of imagination and fantasy. The album blends elements of classical music, folk, and heavy metal, creating a unique and captivating sound that is both epic and emotional.

The album opens with the hauntingly beautiful instrumental track "Taikatalvi," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. From there, the listener is taken on a wild ride through tracks like "Storytime," "Ghost River," and "I Want My Tears Back," each one showcasing the band's incredible musicianship and the powerful vocals of lead singer Anette Olzon.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Scaretale," a theatrical and dramatic song that features a chilling circus-like melody and eerie vocals. Another highlight is the title track "Imaginaerum," a stunning epic that features a full orchestra and choir, taking the listener on a grand and emotional journey.
