[QUOTE=Riva;13643734]Bolded are my favourite ones, the rest range from average to good power metal.
Sonata Arctica[/QUOTE]

how dare you not put Sonata in bold? :angry:

on a side note, amazon have finally started stocking more Tarot than just 'suffer our pleasure' so im one happy camper...not that im a camper...

Stormrider 11-17-2006 03:07 PM

Edguy are good stuff. I've only heard one full album though:Theatre of Salvation. Along with a bunch of other songs. The album is good, tohugh a few songs kinda bore me...

Shattered_Future 11-17-2006 03:29 PM

Damn, I forgot to put Tarot in my list.

ToS took a couple listens for me to get into, but its a really...nice (for lack of a better word) album, its not much compared to mandrake or hellfire club though


np: flogging molly - seven deadly sins (not power metal in the slightest but such a cool song)

Stormrider 11-17-2006 05:09 PM

I gotta say...same here. I remember when I first listened to the album, I was disapointed. But now, I really enjoy it.

I havn't heard much from Madrake to be honest...

Shattered_Future 11-17-2006 06:14 PM

Mandrake is an unbelievable album. Get it. Now.

Stormrider 11-17-2006 06:47 PM

Okay :)

I'll look into it.

Riva 11-17-2006 07:44 PM

I'm sorry to break the trend, but I really don't absolutely love Edguy to pieces like the rest of you guys. I find them to be the same as Stratovarius, a good listen but not something I think "I have to listen to them now!"

Stormrider 11-17-2006 07:48 PM

I don't worship them. Though, I rather them to Stratovarius. Though, I must get myself Episode. Oh, I just remembered, why are Stratovarius albums so damn expensive ?

When I get in the mood for some Edguy, it's very good stuff.

Shattered_Future 11-17-2006 07:56 PM

I don't love them to pieces, but I love the fact that they don't take themselves too seriously. It's good, fun, and hella catchy music.

I can't stand Stratovarius though, aside from the few instrumental tracks. They're extremely boring to me.

Stormrider 11-17-2006 09:13 PM

Elements Part 1, which is generally a boring album, is a good listen about...once every 5 months.

:p

Txus 11-17-2006 09:24 PM

Stratovarius live are awesome.

/Feels like a n00b in here :p

Riva 11-17-2006 09:30 PM

I like [I]Destiny[/I] the best out of Statovarius' catalogue. Rebel and the title track are killer songs.

pate 11-17-2006 11:02 PM

I worship certain Edguy songs...and my favorite album is Rocket Ride. /runs

Stormrider 11-18-2006 12:12 AM

Man, this Edguy talk put me in the mood :p

I should borrow my girlfriends copy of Destiny one day...

Txus 11-18-2006 12:24 AM

I should borrow your girlffriend some day...:p

/Is drunkzz

Stormrider 11-18-2006 12:26 AM

You're not drunk, you say **** like that all the time :lol:

Txus 11-18-2006 12:34 AM

....Ok :(

</3

shadow_stalker 11-18-2006 08:50 AM

i think im one of the only people around here that doesnt like Stratovarious, lots of people i talk to tell me they are one of the definitive power metal bands, but whenever i listen to them i just feel board.


any of you guys ever lsitend to axxis? i've been told by a couple of people they are really good but never really listend to them

Stormrider 11-18-2006 10:20 AM

[QUOTE=Txus;13649997]....Ok :(

</3[/QUOTE]

It was a joke Mikey :( A Joke !

Oh, and Riva, you know whebn we were talking about which IE album we considered more Power Metal ? In the Viking thread ? Well, I forgot about mentioning it there...What about The Glorious Burden ? Tim's vocals add a big power metal feel to it at times IMO. Though, once again, I wouldn't go and call a all out power metal album, heh.

Just thought I'de add this here...

Steerpike 11-18-2006 10:26 AM

I'm ordering Stigmata tomorrow. The problem with Tarot imports is that they're all so expensive.

Stormrider 11-18-2006 10:28 AM

I had listened to the Tarot album with the song I Rule on it. Though the only thing I remember from it is the chorus in I Rule.

Steerpike 11-18-2006 10:38 AM

That would be Suffer Our Pleasures. Great album.

Stormrider 11-18-2006 10:40 AM

Yeah...I could never get into it though :-/

Can't say I gave it a lot of chances. But I deleted it...so, can't really listen to it again right now.

MetalOz 11-18-2006 02:42 PM

GASP! deleting a Tarot album, how could you? I have uploaded the new album, may I please send you the link?

Shattered_Future 11-18-2006 02:55 PM

Jammie, you should be shot now. :mad:

I looked at Tarot albums on Amazon, and now I wish I actually had money...:(

Stormrider 11-18-2006 03:20 PM

:(

I'm sorry guys. I'l go and get it back sometime and isten to it again And sure MetalOz. I'll give it a listen.

Riva 11-19-2006 05:16 AM

Jammie, I can't believe you deleted a Tarot album.

Minus 10 :cool: points

Also, Statovarius are the archetype of power metal, that is why they get so much respect/adulation.

Stormrider 11-19-2006 09:24 AM

Oh noo...not the :cool: points !

:(

MetalOz 11-19-2006 11:53 AM

Well I sent you a link for the new Tarot, so check it out and report back here. Professing your love for the new album may gain you back some points :thumb:
