Oh well - the new album was okay, but I was never really a fan of Jon to begin with. Being a satanic homophobic murderer just isn't cool, so his suicide doesn't bother me at all.

Back on topic (or rather, what everyone is talking about right now): Gothic Opera Metal is okay... but... um... I'm not sure about Nightwish. "I Wish I had an Angel" was pretty good... the music video made me laugh (because of the guitarists' expressions)... but I'm not sure what all the hype is about. Lacuna Coil... pretty good too. I can't stand any other gothic-opera singing bands, though. >_o;
I'm just now getting into them, I got the DVD and Mahi Kali is like my favorite track on it. I know that one's a new song, I don't know about Elizabeth Bathory. I havent been able to spend time wth their back catalogue yet so I haven't heard Reinkaos
