Thoughts on Human Fortress?

Also what is the best helloween album?

[QUOTE=The Dark Philosopher;15507401]Thoughts on Human Fortress?[/QUOTE]

Great power metal band. Knights In Shining Armour is an epic song. Definitely get [I]Defenders of the Crown[/I].

[QUOTE=The Dark Philosopher;15507563]Also what is the best helloween album?[/QUOTE]

[I]Keeper Of The Seven Keys[/I] or [I]Walls Of Jericho[/I].

The Dark Philosopher 11-06-2007 02:08 PM

Ahh, yes I have heard Knights In Shining Armour and loved it. Are most of their songs that good? Thanks Riva.

Riva 11-06-2007 06:18 PM

Most of the songs on the album are of similar quality, though not [I]quite[/I] as good as Knights In Shining Armour. And you're very welcome.

I've been on the lookout for some British rap for a while. All I have is Foreign Beggars. Any recommendations for something accessible?

Or any other rap? My favorites are:

Atmosphere
Brother Ali
Deltron 3030
JMT
Jurassic 5
Nas
Non Phixion

Wu-Tang Clan... not British

Angmar 11-06-2007 09:01 PM

I'm looking for some soft ambient music that is instrumental, in the vein of Hlidskjalf or the Ildjarn ambient albums, just looking for more relaxing music.

Deth 11-06-2007 09:02 PM

Eluvium is the only one I can offer, but they're (he's?) great.

Angmar 11-06-2007 09:04 PM

Yeah I have Copia and Talk Amongst the Trees, good stuff.

Preferably something a little darker maybe?

:lol: Rainfall... you'll fall asleep within seconds

/snore

Angmar 11-06-2007 09:14 PM

[QUOTE=Splat Out Plath;15511768]I assume you're familiar with Anathema too?[/QUOTE]

Indeed but they aren't really instrumental ambient...

Riva 11-06-2007 11:08 PM

And I'm guessing you know Nest already also, right?

Kitaro, Gandalf, and Mike Oldfield's first four albums will do you nicely, I think.

Tyler 11-06-2007 11:09 PM

TUUUUUUUUUUBULAR BELLS

srsly.

Well there are some "vocals" but it's not like you'll notice them.

Riva 11-06-2007 11:11 PM

I was actually hesitant at first to mention [I]Tubular Bells[/I] simply because of the rock guitar midway through Part One, and the Piltdown Man section in Part Two. But [I]Hergest Ridge[/I], [I]Ommadawn[/I] and [I]Incantations[/I] should be right up his alley.

Angmar 11-06-2007 11:22 PM

Alright I shall check both of those out, if there are some vocals it is fine, instrumental was just my preference.

ATM 11-07-2007 09:27 AM

Boards of Canada might be up your alley.

Tyr 11-07-2007 09:39 AM

Harold Budd, Arvo Pärt and Brian Eno, too.

the2stranger 11-10-2007 01:40 PM

Can anyone recommend me some nice neofolk bands and albums.
I enjoy Nest, but never checked anything else. I really enjoy the nature feel of Nest, so yeah.

Thanks in advance. :)

Empyrium - Where At Night the Wood Grouse plays
Fire & Ice - Gilded By the Sun
Sol Invictus - The Death of the West
October Falls - Marras (This is all acoustic folk, but I know you would love it).

Would you like me to send you some of these will the Loss and Doom: VS?

jebus FX 11-10-2007 02:01 PM

Autumn Leaves

now

Tyler 11-10-2007 04:11 PM

Autumn Leaves doesn't sound like either of those bands though.

repcak 11-10-2007 04:15 PM

holy ****... i just played Autumn Leaves on winamp for the first time since a year and you are talking about them... cool!

Angmar 11-10-2007 05:32 PM

[QUOTE=Cocaine;15527374]Autumn Leaves doesn't sound like either of those bands though.[/QUOTE]

You're right but I still think he would like them since they are melo death.

jrowa001 11-11-2007 02:26 PM

any recommendations for bands like newer Katatonia and The Foreshadowing?

for those who havent heard of the Foreshadowing, i think you should if you like Katatonia.

Angmar 11-11-2007 02:38 PM

Anathema for new katatonia style stuff.

jrowa001 11-11-2007 02:44 PM
