4.0 out of 5 stars
Amazing.. But Very Dissapointed, October 28, 2008
This review is from: Black Symphony (DVD)
I bought the 2 DVD and 2 CD version.and was so excited when I got it. As an Australian fan.. I have never had the opportunity to see them live and when I first heard they were doing a concert with a full orchestra, I was excited beyond belief.
However, when watching it, I had one serious problem.. Because Within Temptation already use a live orchestra in recordings.. this live dvd made it sound like I was just listening to the album.
When Metallica did their S&M concert, it was such an amazing and different sound to their album which is what made it so brilliant to listen to.. But Within Temptation are a band that relies too heavily on orchestra in their albums for this concert to be so effective.
Don't get me wrong. I love this concert and as a performace it is five stars. But the inclusion of the orchestra in this cicumstance doesn't really ad anything new that we don't hear on the album.
Within Temptation are amazing and so is the orchestra but after all the wait and anticipation, the inclusion of the orchestra isn't really noticed and audio-wise, I just felt like all I was getting was a greatest hits album.
