I kinda got into Nightwish for a while a few years ago, and I have to say that I completely agree that the old stuff is superior to the new.

I like both old and new. I was a little iffy on the new singer, but saw them in concert and I'm down with it.

That's similar to my múm tastes. My favorite múm albums are

Yesterday Was Dramatic – Today Is OK
Finally We Are No One
Summer Make Good

The ones after that I don't like nearly as much.
