"Opus Atlantica " is the first and only album of the band, wich was released on November 21st, 2002 worldwide. Musically you can pretty clearly say that they are from Sweden, also without info sheet, because the sound is so Swedish... Located between Melodic and Power Metal, with a certain neo-classical touch it gets as typical as it gets. But still not all hope is lost, meaning that OPUS ATLANTICA are not completely generic, even though they do not really utilise anything that hasn't been there before, to be honest.
Still they have some tunes that definitely should attract the attention of a genre-friend, like "Holy Graal" with its good riff and driving rhythm or the excellent un-sappy ballad "Prince Of Darkness" that has a great melody, just like "Falling Angel" that absolutely convinces me with its mix of heaviness and melodies.
These songs are what actually save "Opus Atlantica" from the fate of a purely generic product, lifting them up at least far enough to not go under completely, at least for me :) So if you are a genre-fan, check them out, you could very well like them!
