Kamelot - The Fourth Legacy (2000)

I haven't been overly exciteted by Kamelot thus far, but this album, their fourth, is certainly their best to date.  The songwriting is consistent, although the second half isn't quite as good as the first, with highlights including "The Fourth Legacy", "Silent Goddess" and, most of all, "Nights Of Arabia", and Roy Khan's vocals are excellent throughout.  American power metal bands still don't tend to appeal to me in general, but Kamelot show a lot of promise here.

***1/2
