Yeah, I wanted to do the trilogy in one post, and then I will post on those releases in a bit. I still have yet to really sink my teeth into Elegy. I like Tuonela, but once I heard Joutsen, I fell for his vocals and Tuonela doesn't play as well for me now. That singer (on Tuonela) tends to ride a single syllable over 6-7 notes, and that gets annoying after a while. I DO like the record, but as I said to PN, it comes across as more folk rock to me (aside from the track Greed, obviously) so it sort of fell by the wayside as the other (superior) records grabbed my attention.
I don't have Elegy yet - I've just listened to some cuts here and there, and I don't feel that is a fair test of its quality.
Curious... what are your favorite sections from Eclipse? I really like the way the record flows up through The Smoke, but Same Flesh falls right on the floor for me, for some reason. *Shrugs*
