No, don't listen to Leo and his piracy pleadings. Dark Moor are awesome.

Dark Moor are pretty cool. I should listen to them more...

/has...*cough*...[SIZE="1"]pirated albums of theirs...:([/SIZE]

I liked Dark Moor best with Elisa Martin on vocals, she has a very unique voice. I have all her other projects, an album as guest vocalist with Fairyland, one album with Hamka, and 2 Dreamaker albums. All of them are quite good power metal albums but my favorite remains The Fall of Melnibone

I guess I don't have to download one of their albums. I'll just get a few more songs to see which one I need to buy :p

Or, I could just download it. We'll see what happens...I'm in no hurry though. The songs I have right now are satisfying.

Anyone heard the bonus disk for Dream Evil's United?
[quote=amazon.com]Limited Edition two CD pressing of this 2006 release from Metal merchants Dream Evil featuring a bonus three inch CD single with five exclusive audio tracks: 'Calling Your Name', 'Dynamite', 'Into The Unknown', 'I Will Never' and 'Vengeance'.[/quote]

/bump

Sounds interesting.

NP - FireWind - Breaking the silence

Manticora - Forever Carousel

This song is incredible!

[QUOTE=Mother;13756327]NP - FireWind - Breaking the silence[/QUOTE]

I've been listening to Firewind alot lately. They've surpassed Dream Evil in my book I gues (but that could change pretty rapidly again).

Gus G. FTW!
I got that Dream Evil bonus disk and it's sehr gut, I was just wondering what the story with it is... Why a separate bonus disc that is really an EP? Were any of these songs released somewhere else?

I've been listening to Heavenly - Virus lately. They've got some early Helloween-esque stuff that's great.

Helloween-esque stuff, ha? That could be interesting.

Perhaps a Heavenly sampler is in order. I have Dust to Dust by them as well.

I'm on a Rhapsody binge.

Oh, the sheer, unadulterated joy of them.

NP-Triumph for my magic steel

[QUOTE=Lord Abortion;13763561]NP-Triumph for my magic steel[/QUOTE]

My favorite Rhapsody song.

I love some Firewind. I don't like any of their albums as a whole because there's songs on them that I really can't dig. However, the ones that I do like I listen to all the time, ei Kill to Live, Between Heaven and Hell, amongst others.

Rhapsody are so good that it pains me to listen to the new album.

Is it not good?

It's so epic that it's actually unlistenable.

Haha, that makes me want to listen to it. So I'm assuming this one was released under the Rhapsody of Fire name?

Yeah. Take everything that was great about Rhapsody (speed, solos and kickass choruses) and replace it with string sections and voice overs and you have the new album.

Oh and ballads. Way too many ballads.

There's maybe 3 minutes of up tempo music on the album.

Christopher Lee is still badass though.

Yeah, there is no denying that.

The Misery by Sonata Arctica is one of the best songs EVER

I've never been able to like them. I believe I am the only person on the planet who is not in love with them.

Well, you fail then.

I didn't like Rhapsody's new album one bit. Too slow.

[QUOTE=Shattered_Future;13791216]I didn't like Rhapsody's new album one bit. Too slow.[/QUOTE]
I agree. Sounds a lot like Turilli's solo material too, which I find to be pretty terrible.

I've got a quick question....is Angra's "Rebirth" a really good album, or how good is it??

[QUOTE=pate;13790457]I've never been able to like them. I believe I am the only person on the planet who is not in love with them.[/QUOTE]

Nope, you're not alone. I had one album which I never got into much, so I deleted it.

[QUOTE=Animosity;13793709]I've got a quick question....is Angra's "Rebirth" a really good album, or how good is it??[/QUOTE]

Yes, it is indeed very good. Get it.

I have heard some Sonata Arctica but never found them more then just over avarage.

/Starts listening to Firewind again.

Kamelot!

I just got One Cold Winter's Night. It is really good. The live version of the songs are great and there are guest appearanes from Thomas Youngblood's wife doing the female vocals on some songs, Simone Simons of Epica does her parts on The Haunting, Snowy Shaw does Shagrath's parts on March of Mephisto, and Sascha Paeth makes an appearance playing guitar on one song as well. They have 3 live backup vocalists (so much cooler than samples). Apparently the keyboardist, Oliver Palotai is now officialy part of the band (and damn good) I still haven't checked out the 2nd disc...

/breaks out entire discography to re-listen

That sounds awesome!

I still roffle at Snowy doing vocals in Therion. It's almost like if they got Nicko McBrain to replace Tarja :lol::lol:

EDIT: Thing is, his vocals are completely awesome.

I like Snowy regardless of what he's doing. He could be playing triangle, for ****s sake, and he'd still make it one of the most metal triangle parts ever.

Kamelot has a live DVD? Sweeeet.

And I like Turilli's solo work. Up until his new album, it sounded like Rhapsody knockoff music, but the new one is a bit different and still just as good.

Snowy does the vocals on the new Therion album? [Is news to me if the answer is "yes"]

...............yes. :p

I'm assuming you aquired a leak then and the album owns?

What Kamelot album should I look for? I've been meaning to buy one. Or should I go with the new live album? I do love live albums.

[QUOTE=cjborton;13806137]I'm assuming you aquired a leak then and the album owns?[/QUOTE]

Yeah, it leaked two or three weeks ago. It's excellent.

[QUOTE=cjborton;13806137]I'm assuming you aquired a leak then and the album owns?[/QUOTE]

I've been listening to it non stop for 3 weeks now. It's amazing. We could basicly skip this years top albums and just call the new Therion album of the new year.

NP: Therion - Three Treasures

I wouldn't go that far, but I would put it in at least the top 15 of the year.

[QUOTE=Deth;13806436]What Kamelot album should I look for? I've been meaning to buy one. Or should I go with the new live album? I do love live albums.[/QUOTE]

I think Epica is my favorite but they really don't have a bad album. Although Eternity and Dominion have a different singer and I very much prefer Khan on vocals...

Khan is amazing.

My favorite is The Black Halo.
