Yeah, I have a jogging playlist on my mp3 player that's more or less a Greatest Hits In Power Metal compilation.

lol, my mp3 player is 90% power metal..Mostly Rhapsody of Fire, Firewind, Lost Horizon, Blind Guardian, and Kamelot. Oh, some old Nightwish power metal too.

I only use my iPod for long drives, so there's quite a bit of power metal on it. Singing while driving makes me feel manly.

the higher the notes the more manly it is.

I usually just take my CD wallet with me for long trips, and I also have a sun visor wallet of burnt compilations, mostly power metal and pub rock.

I only listen to clean vocal stuff on long drives. Singing along keeps me awake.

CD wallet?

i hope you have a larger binder at home...

edit: the only power metal i listen to in the car are Symphony X. The others don't seem like driving music to me.

i know what a cd wallet is, i meant i hope he has more than just 20 cds

i mean i have 3 240+ binders...

He does. I've seen them.

ah okay, just checking

Firewind's new album is very solid, a 4 at least. I am hoping to review this soon.

I didn't know that it was out. Do review it, please. :D

I'm seeing Firewind in less than a month. :D

Not that I like them or anything, but I thought I'd make you guys jealous. They're opening for Arch Enemy.

Firewind owns Arch Enemy in the face and should be headlining.

im addicted to Gamma Ray right now

Except not.

And Dark Tranquillity is opening too. THEY should be headlining...

None of the 3 should be active.

They're so good.

Me I can't stop listening to Iced Earth now. I love Framing Armageddon.

Y'alright lads?

Good to hear.


I remember meeting this lad, addicted to the old power metal.
Northern European he was. Hilarious.

Does anyone else think that Children Of Bodom and Wintersun arent Power Metal?

COB isn't worth wasting my time over.

COB rules except for Blooddrunk.

CoB has nothing to do with power metal - its a mix of power metal AND melodic death.

Its the same with Wintersun, though they have more power elements than melodic death elements.


I call them extreme power metal - but they are not pure power metal!

I think Wintersun has more of a Melodic Black Metal sound than Melo-Death.

Black? WTF?

If, then they have more folk element in their music... the guitarist, vocalist, songwriter is from ensiferum

Yeah. They mix Power, Melodic Black, Melodic Death, and Folk Metal.

ok.

Power Metal or not Wintersun are great. Anybody know when they'll release Time?

EDIT : Oh, just see on M-A september 08..

There is nothing black metal about Wintersun.
