Jammie, listen to this band: [url]http://www.myspace.com/airgedlamh6[/url] They're supposed to play power metal in the vein of BG and Iced Earth. They have doom and folk touches too.

Okay, will do. Thanks. :) ...I'll come back and say what I think after. I still havn't listened to that song you sent me though...neither those bands you mentioned to me :(

/fails

Meh big deal Jammie. I know you've got tons of music to listen to, you don't need to feel obliged to listen to the stuff everyone sends you :p

Meh, not many people send me stuff anyway. But I will listen to the song you sent and bands you recommended. Just give it some time :p

I didn't find Reckoning Night that appealing, but I really enjoy Winterheart's Guild.

Can anyone say anything about these artists in the list?:

At Vance
Heavenly
Insania
Mob Rules

^^Those are the bands I know nothing about....so I'm most curious about those.

[QUOTE=Deth;14123585]I didn't find Reckoning Night that appealing, but I really enjoy Winterheart's Guild.[/QUOTE]

I'm the opposite. I thought Winterheart's Guild was a bit lame (aside from The Cage and Victoria's Secret...maybe Gravenimage if I'm in the right mood), and Reckoning Night to be their masterpiece.

[QUOTE=Animosity]At Vance[/QUOTE]

Yes! They've covered Abba's Money Money :D

[QUOTE=Animosity;14124309]Can anyone say anything about these artists in the list?:

[/QUOTE]

They're quality power metal, I have Dust to Dust and Virus, both very good, sounding quite like Helloween on some songs...

I never liked Heavenly too much...I think they rip off Rhapsody a bit on quite a few of their songs.

Well, from that list I posted, these are the 5 I bought:

Brainstorm - Soul Temptation
Gamma Ray - Somwhere Out In Space
Heavenly - Sign of the Winner
Insania - Sunrise In Riverland
Nocturnal Rites - New World Messiah

^I'm liking them all, besides Brainstorm. I've only listened to the first couple tracks, but they weren't doing it for me. I'll give it a full spin later and see if I change my mind. The Gamma Ray and Nocturnal Rites are currently my favorites...

Damn, Brainstorm are my fault :upset:

For everyone interested, [b]Wizard's new disc GOOCHAN[/b] is available for streaming on my website. Please, don't link to it from other sites or I'll be forced to remove it. That is, if anyone out there besides me listens to them. ;)

Dude. I had heard Odin and Head of the Deceiver back in the day and they sound much different now. More "modern". Less speed. :-\

[QUOTE=Stoic;14139031]Damn, Brainstorm are my fault :upset:[/QUOTE]
Heh....no worry. They were all in near mint condition, and only 10 bucks each. The day before I won 40 bucks in poker.....so the way I look at it, I didn't loose anything :)

Worst comes to worse, I could sell it to my local CD sotre for $6 bucks.....but I like it enough to keep it, for now.

I like Brainstorm.

Brainstorm are awesome, and that's a good album by them too.

The first two or three tracks on Liquid Monster are better, but after that LM goes to hell, while ST stays solid.

I own Ambiguity which I dislike but I liked what I heard off Soul Temptation. I think this is how Brainstorm are supposed to sound like.

hmmm, maybe I'm not giving them a good enough listen. What do you guys think really stands out about them?

Not playing cheesy euro power maybe? :(

[QUOTE=Stoic;14144917]Not playing cheesy euro power maybe? :([/QUOTE]
Heh, yeh that's one reason why I wanted to give them the go. They bore me though. They're riffs aren't to interesting, and they all sound similar.....and the drum patterns are very very dull and don't change up to much. The singer's decent, but he doesn't make the band much more interesting.

I'll give it a full spin tonight, and see if my thoughts change...

I told you to save your money for Slough Feg :upset:

[QUOTE=Stoic;14145292]I told you to save your money for Slough Feg :upset:[/QUOTE]
Hey, right when I ever see one of those floating around somewhere's, I'm sure I'll get it. I'd do that with a lot of CD's. The problem is availability.

[url]http://www.evillegendrecords.com[/url] -->all you need.

So how do you order then??

[QUOTE=Evil Legend Site]Email me:
1. Name and Address
2. Your order
3. Your method of payment

I accept Paypal (with 5% fee), Money Orders, and US CASH.[/QUOTE]

I haven't purchased anything because it's a US based label and I wouldn't bother with the proccess and all (I have euros he takes dollars). It's a reliable place, take a look at Metal-Rules trading bored and you'll see he's got a pretty good name. I don't have a credit card or paypal or bank account so whenever I bought an album from abroad I sent hidden cash (old school way).

Heh, I prefer using Amazon.com, even though the range is fairly poor at times, and I do get raped on price a lot.

have you tried play.com It has free shipping. Shipping should a problem for the aussies :-\

Yes, I always qualify for Amazon's free shipping but don't get it. :-/

They need an Amazon.com.au
