The Sceptre of Deception was ok I guess. I still havent heard anything off their latest one though

I like live albums- my love of alive in athens, maiden's live after death and metallica's live **** binge and burge, cannibal corpse- live cannibalism and mayhem live in liepzig is well documented on mx

[QUOTE=The Dark Philosopher]Anybody here like Falconer?[/QUOTE]

I like Chapter From a Vale Folklorn. I think they have a new album coming out next week.

Yeh thats what I heard. Do you know what its name is?

[QUOTE=The Dark Philosopher]Anybody here like Falconer?[/QUOTE]

yes i listen to falconer. I have all their albums, including Grime Vs. Grandeur. Their vocalist has really done a great job on the new album. IM me if you want to listen to it.

Currently, my favorite power metal bands are: Angra, Insania, and Dragonland. Not many people have heard of them, but they are really great.

Anyone heard Sonata ARctica's cover of Fade to Black, its pretty good

I've downloaded songs from the Falconer website, my favourite song is The Coronation.

I'd get an album of theirs, but I can't seem to find one thats cheap, everywhere I've looked has them for about £15 each.

I have to check out Falconer. What are they like?

Kinda average power metal, not too fast, not too slow. The lyrics are very typical of the genre and the singer has a pretty good voice.

By saying average you mean in terms of speed or quality? If you're refering to quality, I disagree with you. They're pretty good, with superb and quite technical at times guitar work, although often overlooked. It's actually the kind power I mostly like (more aggressive but yet melodic).

NP Avantasia - The Looking Glass

Average speed, pretty good quality.

They haven't really got to me like some power metal bands though, they're kinda in the middle of good/bad line IMO.

I'd like to seem them live though someday :)

due to the kindness(?) of shadow_stalker I now have reckoning night by sonata arctica and both dragonforce albums on my computer

dragonforce 'kin rule!!

indeed they rule! Get yourself some Falconer now!

since you are the expert- rccomend me some... :D

The Coronation is a good song to download.

You can get it from their website.

sweet. thanks.

what other sonata albums should I be getting myself?

Winterheart's Guild is excellent.

again, cheers and loving the sephiroth-ness BTW
christ, the hours of my life spent playing ff7...
over and over again

I spent about 3 days playing it almost non-stop, I got from the end of Disc 1 to the bit on Disc 3 where you can do whatever you want before going to fight Jenova+Sephiroth.

yeah you can spend weeks doing that
i would love to devise a metal soundtrack for the bits in that game
although the music is great already...

The Black Mages kinda beat you to it there.

That website has mp3's for all the Final Fantasy music, all you need to do is register and you can begin downloading.

yeah... I did hear about them
sounds pretty cool

but I meant through existing tracks

ie ooohh...

wallmarket- ozzy -miracle man

I love that part of the game, i spend most of my time in gold saucer and dont do much else :lol:


Lord Abortion do you want to borrow Sonata Arctica's - Winter hearts guild album?

Tis very good, not sure if i prefer it over reckoning night though.

Queensrÿche, power metal? prog? bit of both?

anyway they kick *** and they have some Power aspects to their music, and miss quite a few more.

Just heard Cryonic temple for the first time, pretty good might get one of their albums.


Still no sign of the lost horizon cd i orderd. :upset:

man0warrr

pathetic :D

Bumping this thread up from the grave to whore for Wuthering Heights.

\m/ :cool:

Power metal thread revival! Sorry Steerpike I dont like Wuthering Heights (at least for now) :p. Can I whore for Zero Hour?

By the way, I think you've once mentioned Pagan's Mind in a thread. I own Infinity Divine but no matter how much I tried I couldnt get into it. However, I still hear very good comments about them...What's your opinion?

I don't listen to them very often, but they do have some great songs. I just worry that they're going to drift off into masturbatory displays of Dream Theater-esque come-inducement.

haha, have you heard anything off their latest?

I dislike Pagan's Mind. I had such high expectations too.

[QUOTE=MetalFan]haha, have you heard anything off their latest?[/QUOTE]

No actually, I haven't.

nevermind, neither have I :(

[QUOTE=RideTheSpiral]I dislike Pagan's Mind. I had such high expectations too.[/QUOTE]

i wasnt as impressed with them as i hoped to be either. The reviews on "celestial entrance" were flawless and after several listens i still cant recall a song i really got into. proof that masterful musicianship does not make you a good songwriter.
