Unfortunately I did not have the opportunity to purchase this wonderful album on CD Japan, even so, I did my best to get it, I must say that is "perfect" the album is perfect, the essence that surrounds this new album is nostalgic for the presence of the melodies "Mephisto Waltz" and "Vestige," although I should mention that both melodies are beautiful, no doubt, Mana is a wonderful composer, in these two songs you can enjoy the soft sounds and "Sweet". "The Prophet" go to this song caught my five senses, this song is very beautiful, has a unique style and lyrics are incredibly beautiful, I loved this song, I loved how much Mana describes the man who falls in love and all sounds that make this song is perfect as the voice of K and the female voice to complement the choir. I could say that "The Prophet" is a short description of Mr. Mana or so as I've taken. "Perish" I loved the sound of bass, in fact, is the bass that gives it a certain atmosphere of "mystery" to this song, the guitars complement each other very well and regards to the battery can not complain, everything is very well complemented. An excellent song, a wonderful melody. Ah, that I would not forget "Noctunal Romace" when I heard this composition will admit that I fell in love with all the sounds and the way they played this song Juka, I liked to hear the guitars play at the min. To 0:27 min. 0:35, ha, ha, ha ... this CD is definitely not as I describe highlighting the beauty it has, I assume that this album has no description, and the most common words to describe it would be incredibly wonderful ... "Perfect and Elegant" by the great combination of classical, symphonic and gothic. Without doubt, a true fan should not hesitate to buy "Nocturnal Romance" and is not a fan, take a little time to hear these compositions.
NOCTURNAL OPERA Customer Reviews
Moi dix Mois
Un'altro stupendo lavoro di Mana, bellissime in particolare perich nocturnal romance e monophobia!!!!
I heard the songs before I bought the CD and I really liked the songs. My favourite song from this album is Prophet.
Incredible cd, first j rock cd i have ever bought and i am already in love. recommend to any fans of MDM or Mana. took only four days 2 get here.
This Cd is very good, the sound is like a rock opera, personally is my favorite Moi Dix Mois Cd. If you want a gothic sound you should buy this cd
A different style than on Dix Infernal, but still very much Moi Dix Mois. There are quite a few memorable songs on this album such as The Prophet, Perish and Vizard. The European edition has an extra disc containing all singles up to that point (Dialogue Symphonie, Shadows Temple and Pageant). Out of those tracks, I simply adore Night Breed! <3 Also, check out the Invite To Immorality Europe Tour 2005 DVD.
Beautiful and elegant, with a touch of goth! :D Best way to describe NOCTURNAL OPERA. It was definitely worth waiting for, and each song left me very pleased. Different from DIX INFERNAL, but the difference paid off well.
Personally, I like M10M's second album the best out of all releases so far. Each track has its own unique style, Juka's voice fits perfectly to every song... that's what makes the album so perfect to me.
great album,maybe not as good as the first one,but,anyway,good production and good songs as well. No tan bueno como el primero,pero,un cd que no deberia perderse ningun fan de moi dix mois
Such beautiful music. ^-^ My favorite song on here is The Prophet which, in my opinion, is a very unique song that really tested Mana's musical prowess. The booklet is also beautiful with several very lovely photographs. Unfortunately, we don't get any good pictures of anyone but Mana in there.. *sweatdrop* The story of Nocturnal Opera is something that comes gradually, but is such an imaginative and magical thing to develop in one's mind. I think this must be why Mana never clearly states the stories behind his compilations-- since people all go their own routes into the world he conjures. Beautiful CD!
This is probably my favorite m10m album so far and it was very easy to fall in love with all the songs, as all of them are amazing! I love how m10m mixes classical elements with hard rock. I was at first hesitant to buy the album because of the price but it if you love m10m, you will love this album!
In my opinion this is the best Moi Dix Mois album, all songs are good, the death voice of K is a good completion of the hard rock style of this band.
This album is probably my fave out of all m10m albums. it contains my favesongs, but still if you're a mana and m10m fan you SHOULD REALLY but this one. All songs are so beuatiful and great!
Nocturnal Opera is Moi dix Mois best release so far. Every track is unique and unlike Dix Infernal all the songs flow together without sounding all the same. This album features a more symphonic sound and made me think of late Malice Mizer, but has also some new and refreshing ideas which make it probably the best japanese album of 2004.
A story about two lovers who are separated and can never be with each other again. Great album! Definitely recommend it to Jrock fans!
I fell in love with this album! It contais my favorite Moi dix Mois song, "The Prophet". Mana's beauty shows up also in his muisc. And Juka sounds like a siren; he's voice is awesome! This album is great!
Nocturnal Opera, the last album to feature members Juka, Tohru, and Kazuno, is an album worth the money paid. The strongest song (in my opinion), the Prophet, keeps the classical element while at the same time is sort of a preview of what is to come in Beyond the Gate. VIZARD, the heaviest song, is sung by the new death vocal member -- Shadow X. Nocturnal Opera also includes a remix, if you will, of Shadows Temple, off of the single of the same title. This version, Shadows Temple-x, is about half a minute longer. The extra time being there because of a verse whispered by Shadow X. This CD is worth its price, in fact, it's nearly a bargain. The only complaint I really have with it, is that it's a little short. Don't take my word for it though, purchase and listen to it yourself!
