What Iced Earth album should i get?

I bought the 3 CD 'Alive in Athens' (for £13.99 :D ) which really got me into the band. Now I'm looking to buy their studio albums.

I really like Night of the Stormrider and Something wicked this way comes. But whatever you do dont get the last one, the Reckoning I think its called. Its not as good as there old work. May I also sugest Demons and Wizerds first album, its a collaboration between the guitarist of Iced earth and the singer form Blind Guardian.

can someone recommend me some songs by Afterworld, Kamelot, and/or Hammerfall?

thanks.

I need to get a Dream Theater cd. I like what I've heard, and I will be seeing them when they come to Florida for Gigantour. I'm having a tough time deciding what album of theirs to get. I'm deciding between Train of Thought, 6 Degrees of Inner Turbulence, Images and Words, and Scenes from a Memory.
What should I get?

I would say [i]Scenes From a memory[/i] as it's the album which best show cases all of Dream Theater's elements.

I'd say get Six Degrees Of Inner Turbulance...it has some of the best guitar work i've ever heard.

I am looking to get a Sonata Arctica album...i'm not sure which i should get. Any suggestions?

Alright, I'm already down to two Dream Theater albums. Scenes from a Memory and Train of Thought. I'll probably order one tomorrow, so I need to pick which one to get.
ANy more advice would be appreciated.

[QUOTE=Sep]Hey guys, I just heard my first Rush song today: YYZ (live) with drumsolo and I like it a lot. The bassline is great.

What's a good Rush album for me to buy/download to get introduced to them?[/QUOTE]
moving pictures is probably more accessible than 2112. i would go with that.

Recommendation needed: Best Nile album por favor.

Recommendation needed - most accessible / least seedy / least f'u'cking wierd Tool album.

i've got them all par Salival, just need to listen to a whole album which takes approximatly 3 weeks as that is the average album / song length of Tool stuff.

[i]Train of Thought[/i] is the heaviest Dream Theater album and alot of the solo work is very shred based. So if you really like heavy, shreddy music then get it.
[i]Scenes From A memory[/i] is alot more varied. It has the heavy moments and the shred moments, but also mellow and emotional moments. It gives a better idea of Dream Theater as a whole, I think, instead of just giving an image of one of their elements.

^Could you rephrase that, 's a bit confusing.

Dark Tranquillity, Children Of Bodom, At The Gates, Behemoth, Kalmah, Norther

[QUOTE=flamesofbodom]Dark Tranquillity, Children Of Bodom, At The Gates, Behemoth, Kalmah, Norther[/QUOTE]
Children of Bodom, Kalmah, and Norther are all power metal.

What about Emperor and Immortal?

Emperor are black/extreme metal.

Yeah, they're both black metal. Where did that come from?

Sorry, peeps, no satisfactory...
Dark Tranquility sucks(IMO), Children Of Bodom, At The Gates, Behemoth, Kalmah - are not MDM, and are good bands, though not what I'm looking for...

Norther... I dunno, I'll check them out...
More?

Nevermore is power metal.

Nevermore are traditional heavy metal.

From as far as I know, At the Gates are Death Metal, like Death.

The bands I've mentioned before are much more melodic than ATG.
