Therion - Vovin at Progfreak.com

The development of Therion is clear,  Vovin is well-placed between Theli and Deggial: It is one step more away from metal and one step further to being completely opera/classical oriented. Technically it's a bit better than Theli, allthough I regret the exclusion of the more uptempo parts of Theli. The high female voices are especially beautiful on this album and resemble "Siren of the Woods" of Theli

A mediocre album ... any Rhapsody album is at least 10x better in terms of musicianship and proper implementation of classical music. There are also many metal bands which are generally considered to be less progressive, for example Blind Guardian, who do a much better job than Therion. It's hard to believe that this is even considered to be one of their better albums ...
