Rating:  - Los Ultimos seran los primeros
Este ultima entrega del prodigioso grupo metalero de los 70s es una de las composiciones tan agradable al oido que te da mucha tristeza tener que quitar un disco para escuchar el otro, deseando que fueran seguidos los dos. Ya antes se habia escuchado los sonidos sinteticos en los discos anteriores, muy anteriores (Defenders of the faith, Turbo, Ram it down) pero ahora los sonidos son mas refinados y acoplados. La mezcla del sonido metal y el sintetico es tan bien adaptada, es como si te diera un ... Read More
Rating:  - Music = excellent. Concept = so-so.
I can understand why Judas Priest's Nostradamus is controversial. It's completely unlike anything they've ever done before and only occasionally sounds like Judas Priest. Nostradamus has more in common with progressive and symphonic metal than Priest's classic sound. I happen to be a huge of progressive/symphonic metal and Judas Priest, so that's perfect. The music here is excellent. These songs are among the most complex and beautiful compositions that Downing, Tipton and Halford have ever attempted. ... Read More
Rating:  - With all fairness to Spinal Tap......
A lot of the criticism for this snickeringly stupid Priest outing is that they are bordering on Spinal Tap territory. I think it's time to ease up on the Tap. They were trying to be funny. I don't think that is the intent here. Imagine how much funnier Spinal Tap could have been if this was around when that movie came out; they would have so much much more (utterly ridiculous) material to lampoon.
As for my review - there are 23 songs, 6 or 7 are good musically and would be strong if the ... Read More
Rating: - A masterpiece for the open minded
if you listen to this thinking of the story of Nostradamus and imagining having the "gift/curse" of premonition, it's a beautiful record. or if you happen to have a broad range of musical interests - i never tire of the "symphonic meets metal" fusion, or most other musical fusions, for that matter.
but you might not get it if you don't know the story, or come in with your own prejudices of what a JP record should be...or if you expect to instantly get everything you hear -- a rather unrealistic ... Read More
Rating: - "I AM NOSTRADAMUS!!!"
I thought this was going to be cool, but I listened to a few tracks and found out that it was far from it. One tell-tale sign (pre-listening) was that Ayreon did the exact same thing with a fictional character and a massive backstory. (And he did it better)
JP's Nostradamus (character) is too self-aware, cognizant of his own power, and very boastful. They did not think his psychology through.
The opening track is excellent, a brooding instrumental piece, but after that, the album is a shopping ... Read More
