"Priest are back with their most progressive effort to date. The Priest sound is still there - and alive and kicking - but bolstered with a symphonic feel that, while atypical for Priest, is slightly reminiscent of old tracks like "Run of the Mill" and "Dreamer Deciever".
Come to think of it, 'Nostradamus' is in part, ignoring the symphonic elements, musically similar to many of their pre-'Turbo' releases, but on he production side it is more reminiscent of 'Turbo' and 'Ram it Down', making extensive use of synthesized guitars. I think this combination of classical Priest with a new symphonic and conceptual feel works very well.
One downside is perhaps the many athmospheric fillers which tend to get a bit annoying. Fortunately, Halford sings on many of them, which makes them interesting to listen to after all. And maybe there's too much reverb on he bass and snare drums, but that seems to fit the epic feel quite well."
