The only ones I've heard of are ones from Japan - one from '03, and one from '04. If these be the ones you're talking about - look on ebay; there's one or two of both on there today for @£15 apiece

PS Tell me how to get around the swear filter - I want to write ****ing sometimes too..

If you're using the blue background with white text, here's what you do.

1. Type in half of the word
2. Go to color, select white
3. Type in another letter of the word
4. End the word

Enjoy.

Yes, pirate metal. I think it's self-explanatory.

Which reminds me, I didn't learn until after the fact that last Monday was Talk Like a Pirate Day. Yes, this is real. I'll make sure not to miss it next year.

I had been anticipating it for weeks and took full advantage during the day.

Piracy prevailed! YARR!

My friend keeps telling me about all these power metal bands that I never heard of and I was wondering if you guys had:
Olympos Mons, Black Majesty, Nightmare. Anyone? Worth checking them out?

I don't think I've ever heard of these.. anyone else?

Do we have any Helloween fans in the house? My friend yesterday was telling me about how great they are but I've never heard a single song by them? What are they like?

Yeah, I love them, try "Halloween" for a great song...

I was just brosing In the black-metal forum and I noticed someone said:
"Power Metal is for fat people".
I was just like, what the f u c k?, that dosent even make sense.

I dont know but I love power-metal (Blind Guardian, Hammerfall, Dream Evil, Balsagoth, ect). Is the new Kamelot album good?

Yeah, the new Kamelot slays. It's one of those albums that's good top to bottom, not just a coulpe songs. Lots of good riffs, very melodic, and of course Khan's singing is top notch.

I love the way Sam Totman signs his, like a 5 year-old.

I haven't heard them, but I think they're technical death. I may be wrong, but I think that's what I've heard around here. Either way, I'd put money on it that they're not power metal.

Power metal that sings about pirates. A lot.

They also like singing about pirate ghosts, and sea battles where the perfidious French get goodly drubbings. A lot.


On another note - 24hrs to Nightwish and Paradise Lost!

Me and my friends have celebrated Talk Like A Pirate Day for the past few years.

:)

LEGENDS FROM NOW AND NEVERMORE. You are my brother. \m/


So, speaking of Power Metal, 3 Inches Of Blood did a good job with the "Upon the Boiling Seas" trilogy.

NP: Lost Horizon - Sworn In The Metal Wind

You know what would be awesome?

Saw Paradise Lost about 2 weeks ago and they were maybe the worst band I have ever seen. They only did some song off of the last couple of albums, with a lost of electronic rubish and no old classics.

Blast you rumboy...I want to see Nightwish...

I also like PL, but this doesn't look like an encouraging review.

Does anyone else here think hammerfall kicks a s s. Theres never any discussion about them.

[QUOTE=Metallion#666]Does anyone else here think hammerfall kicks a s s. Theres never any discussion about them.[/QUOTE]

there has been a discussion many times. Half of us like them and the rest of us - including me - find them too bland and generic ;)
