EDENBRIDGE: My Earth Dream

The newest release from Austria's Edenbridge, My Earth Dream, rules! Your thoughts on this new CD and the Edenbridge music catalog in general? Favorites? Hail! Edenbridge always sound consistently good to me, with a subtle evolution from one album to the next musically speaking, but the best thing about the band NEVER changes at all-Sabine's magnificent vocals! Hail! Edenbridge for PPUSA X!

I've never been able to get into Edenbridge. What's the best album to start with?

I dig Aphelion and The Grand Design. They're a quirky band, but pretty cool nonetheless. I'm curious to hear the new cd.

I like their very first release "Sunrise in Eden", everything else not so much. Every other album is without a better word meh, really uninspiring.

SIE is their best CD so far, IMO, but I'd give ALL their CDs at least a 9.5/10 rating. I love this band!

Lanvall is everything you could ever say about or want in a musician, and more. Sabine is the consummate vocalist and entertainer.
Edenbridge for PPUSA X!

They are NOT Nightwish clones. I really don't see where this comparison is coming from!

<<<< LOVE EDENBRIDGE!

I've been talking about this album for months (since the artwork was released).

When I first listened to it I heard the intro track and I was thinking it was just going to be typical Edenbridge, but then the first full song kicks in and it's amazing. That second track is probably one of my favorites on the album. (I've mostly been listening to it in the car so I don't have all the track names , sorry.)

I also think Sabine's voice is more powerful on this album than any of the other stuff I've heard from Edenbridge, and I probably have about 6 or 7 of their other albums. She just keeps getting better IMO.


Edenbridge for PP (... or FotV )!

Wow...you could not be more wrong with this assessment. The only thing Nightwish and Edenbridge have in common is that they are fronted by a female.

I agree, Sunrise in Eden was a great debut album and I find myself going back to it quite often but their 2006 release The Grand Design is a strong effort...plus, any collaboration with Karl Groom of Threshold is all right by me...the cover of For Your Eyes Only (James Bond/Sheena Easton) is a tasty little nostalgic nugget too.
