I think the older albums are a little bit better. I like the more simple way they go (Battalions of Fear and stuff). The newer one´s are also good but they haven´t got the old-school charm I used to like. A Night of the Opera is a very very oppulent album but it hasn´t got the depth of the earlier releases.

Necro posting is bad, but metal is good.

Well, I have to say that if you don't think ANATO has depth, you're insane. It's definitely not the same thrash/in your face style as BoF or FtB, or the straight on power and feeling of IFTOS, but it's still pretty fucking kick ass.

Ok maybe I´m insane. It´s just my personal opinion.

I dunno, I consider 250+ tracks used on ONE song to be pretty depthrific

I didn´t mean the depth of the sound more the feeling of the tracks. That all the tracks of the ANATO are real artworks is not a false statement, they are all great monuments of music but I miss BGs former charm they had when they were younger; it´s sometimes cold professional work what you find on their newer albums; I miss the passion in their songs I used to now.

Ah, I understand what you mean, but I guess thats what you get when you wait 4 years between albums.

I THINK 250+ TRACKS SOUNDS OVER DONE AND PRETENTIOUS!!!

...but whether pretentious is good or bad is a matter of what school of musical thought you belong to
