Lefty 08-03-2004 04:03 AM

FrailandBedazzled1979 08-07-2004 03:01 AM

whats everyones opinions on:

Primal Fear
Symphforce
Firewind

Bartender 08-07-2004 05:38 AM

I like what I've heard of Primal Fear (and they're playing a mini-festival here in England in September), but that's not much. Haven't heard the other two.

DimebagDarrell 08-07-2004 05:45 AM

Primal Fear sound alright, i think they might be playing bloodstock but im not 100% sure

Bartender 08-07-2004 05:50 AM

I'm pretty sure they're one of the three "well-known" bands, along with Sonata Arctica and Children of Bodom.

yeh there defiantly playing bloodstock :thumb: so are panic cell which i was abit supried about.

Brew 08-07-2004 10:22 AM

I checked out some Human Fortress the other day, its quite good - a bit different to the rest...a bit darker like what was said earlier in the thread.

I wish I was going to Bloodstock, my dad works with the singer of Fourwaykill :cool:

I got COB's cd 'Something Wild' the other day, its not amazing but I still like it.

FrailandBedazzled1979 08-07-2004 01:41 PM

^^^

something wild is more of a death metal sounding album, easily the worst of their 4...not that i dislike it, but it dosent show off their sound as well as the other three do.

and yeah, Primal Fear are preety cool....a Hammerfall type metal band with less chanting lol.

Hitroshimite 08-07-2004 07:11 PM

By the power of the Gods, I bump this thread!

*bump*

Anyways, I don't know if I'd consider the power metal, but I'm seeing Nightwish on the 16th. \m/ \m/(Heh, sorry, I just had to brag :) )

Anyways, I've been on a bit of a Sonata Artica kick recently, but I don't have any of there albums. Which one would you folks say is there best?

I haven't heard to much of Primal Fear (only their first and last), but from what i have, i have some really mixed feelings. I HATE Schepper's voice. He is NOT Halford, and his works with Gamma Ray make those albums unlistenable for me. (Thank god he was given the boot).

Ok. That out of the way, the music sounds like some really generic german speed/power. But they are NOT Judas Priest. On the other hand, it's german speed/power, and nobody can hate that. :D. Yeah, Pretty much second rate generic stuff, in my opinion. Lets all listen to the two aforementioned bands instead.

I favour Ecliptica.

sensitiveorgan00 08-08-2004 11:23 AM

I'm going to make a power metal mix cd soon, as I don't have one. Can you guys list some good power metal songs I should add? Thanks.

NP: Angra - "Unholy Wars" :D Oh man, I'm not suppose to like Angra, but ****, their so catchy/

DimebagDarrell 08-08-2004 11:48 AM

i do agree about Schepper's voice, he really does try and sing like Halford and cant compete. The music is preety cool, but they are defiently a medium level group at best :)

Lucky!!! write a review of the show in here for us all! id love to see them live!!

Sonata Artica...id have to go with "silence" is my favourite of theirs. its more straitforward and overall musically impressive than "wintersheart guild" and "eleptica", which i still adore the other two albums as well :)

Bartender 08-08-2004 01:30 PM

You got Ecliptica then?

Silence does have my favourite song by them (Wolf & Raven), but I just prefer Ecliptica overall.

FrailandBedazzled1979 08-08-2004 03:13 PM

yeah, about a week n a half ago it came in the mail :)

[QUOTE=manuscriptreplica]Yeah, that list is great.

Is Destiny by Stratovarius a good Stratovarius song? I found it on my computer a couple of weeks ago, and it was pretty good. What other Stratovarius songs are good, and similar to Destiny?[/QUOTE]
Listen to 'Black Diamond' by Stratovarius off the album Infinite. It rocks.

Bartender 08-09-2004 07:01 AM

I was disappointed with Infinite. Is it one of their better albums?

I don't think so. But then again, I don't really like them.

Bartender 08-09-2004 07:48 AM

Me neither, since I got Infinite.

RideTheSpiral 08-09-2004 08:03 AM

Refl.


Kotipelto's solo work is much better. IMO.

LTD Metal Head 08-09-2004 07:36 PM

sensitiveorgan00 08-09-2004 10:49 PM
