Don't risk to say anything against Masquerade Ball ;-) It's my favorite Album... I like the variety, because their are melodic highlights (titlesong), nearly power metal songs (Earls of Black) and Ballads (Night and Rain / Temple of the holy)... simply love it

at first i was disappointed at all the slow stuff on Masquerade Ball, but when i gave it a real listen, the slow stuff is very beautiful and emotional; the songs and the guitar work are just fucking amazing :D

"Your Life (Not Close Enough To Paradise)" is really an amazing ballad... very typical rock ballad, but the vocals of Soto just gives it that extra little bit to lift it above other ballads... LOVING it!!!
