IMHO Avantasia wipes the floor with Ayreon and Aina but I'm sure some of you guys have different opinions... |

My vote goes to Turandot or Aida or Il Barbiere di Siviglia, they easily wipe the floor of the choices above. Go see the real thing, people. |

For me this is pretty obvious too...Avantasia rules over all. You should have added Genuis to the poll, I think there are some people here that appreciate it. |

Which Ayreon are we talking about, there is like a ton of them. I would also have put Genius, Kotzev's Nostradamus, Haggard, Once and Future King part 1 and 2, and Therion in the Metal Opera category. |

Avantasia wins this poll eeeeeeeeasily. Aina and Ayreon are both great, but Avantasia is filled with sooooo much more than what Aina and Ayreon have to offer. |

Ayreon, just for The Human Equation (my favourite album of 2004), I haven't liked any of his other stuff though. |

Star One: Space Metal Since that isn't a choice, I voted for the closest thing, Ayreon. |

Well, I voted for Ayreon simply because there are multiple CDs to choose from, though Aina and Avantasia are excellent in their own right. As for Aina, I have the special 3CD hard-bound book version, and the fucking CD with the album on it is missing! No one would have stolen it, I can't see how it would have fallen out of the case, so the only think I can imagine that happened is that I put the CD in another CD case one day instead of bringing that big hard-bound case. Of course, I have over 4,000 CDs so finding it is going to be a miracle. :( |

How can one be so ignorant?I hope for him he was joking! Anyway i agree with you,Puccini,Verdi and Rossini are quite underrated in the little world of heavy metal,but the best operas have to be found in the Mozart's or Wagner's catalogue:Don Giovanni,Le Nozze Di Figaro,The Magic Flute or Lohengrin,Parsifal,Tristan and Iseult,and of course the biggest opera ever(12 hours):The Tetralogy(the Ring of the Nibelungen). |

Not even close, the album may have the word "opera" in the title, but that doesn't mean much. And I don't think we could count Haggard, Therion or Once and Futute King in the category either. Even though all of those are great 'bands'. I think Trans-siberian orchestra's "Beethoven's last night" and possibly Virgin Steele's "The House of Atreus" could be added to the list instead of those three. All in all I would say Nikolo Kotzev's Nostradamous is the best one, but the poll doesn't include it. |
