[QUOTE=PoetandthePendulum;15821346]No, but they have the greatest power metal singer ever with Wails that destroy any type of choir imaginable.[/QUOTE]

But is he a castrato?

[QUOTE=1338 h4x0r;15821370]But is he a castrato?[/QUOTE]

um, no

I felt like that was a dis at Daniel Heiman though....that ain't cool.

Nah, dude, castrato singers are awesome. Massacration has one and they're the best metal band in Brazil.

Seriously, though, I haven't heard Lost Horizon but I'll check them out.

OK, I checked out some of their new stuff (with Wojtek) and, while I prefer cheesy medieval power metal, they ain't bad at all.

do not double post! use the edit-function. thanks.

My mistake, sir.

Who elses like Seraphim? Quinn is as boneriffic as Vibeke Stene.

Did you listen to Highlander (The One)???

Wojtek is the guitarist who founded the band. He's on both albums.

He isn't even the best part of the band either. :lol:

There should be no best parts of bands. Only the final product, silly metal head.

Lost Horizon have a sick final product though. Too bads they won't be making another album with Daniel.

Daniel was the band for me though :p

I will still like the new album they put out though...much more than the crap that is Heed. Which I have no clue how it is bad, lol.

My mistake...got confused when I read the Wikipedia article.

Yes, I did listen to Highlander (apparently b/c it's The One)

Did you like the epic face melting with the wails?

If I could do high screams like that, I would be doing it nonstop.

[QUOTE=Deth;15835856]If I could do high screams like that, I would be doing it nonstop.[/QUOTE]

LOL I try, but fail pretty epically.

When he goes high with the word Heart in the chorus of Pure....I can kinda get that high.

[QUOTE=PoetandthePendulum;15835832]Did you like the epic face melting with the wails?[/QUOTE]

I'm going to use this song to make whales horny and see how they react. :chug:

wtf?? that makes no sense to me.

[QUOTE=PoetandthePendulum;15836031]wtf?? that makes no sense to me.[/QUOTE]

My bad, not whales, dolphins.

No doubt there are overtones in the ultra high-pitch screams that make dolphins incredibly wet.

[QUOTE=PoetandthePendulum;15836242]wow......have you had any alcoholic beverages tonight?[/QUOTE]

No, I neither drink nor take drugs.

My favorite way of saying that is, "If I could do that, I'd basically never stop."

I saw a guy who looked like him and did the warrior "aaaahhh!" scream and flashed the horns. I don't think it was him, but it really looked like him. Must have weirded that guy out.

:(

Just make metal references to everyone wherever you go. The next time someone asks me why I walk around in the cold in a T-shirt, I'm going to tell him that it's because of "the furnace of anti-Christian hatred that burns within me", give him a stiff Nazi salute, and then walk away with a scowl on my face, watching how he reacts in my peripheral vision.

Word of advice: Never do that in Squirrel Hill.

Were they as high as Daniel's?

[SIZE="5"]Fly high, touch the sky

Never know the reason why it ends

VICTIM OF FATE[/SIZE]

Lost Horizon owns Helloween.

Kai Hansen shouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence as Heiman....but I screwed up and put them in the same sentence, lol.

[QUOTE=PoetandthePendulum;15840459]lol wow.

God no. But high enough.


I may be asking for trouble here, but what are some power metal bands thay you guys would consider to have good lyrics? I don't mean awesome, I mean good. For example, Rhapsody have awesome lyrics, but they don't really make sense and look like they could have been written by a 12 year old nerd. I think that Lost Horizon, Elvenking and sometimes Kamelot have good lyrics. Any others?

I love Kamelot's lyrics, personally.

Sonata Arctica's lyrics got better on Reckoning Night and Unia, even if they are a bit emoish.
