[QUOTE=Stoic]Alright, will listen to Biomechanical tomorrow :)

On another point, according to Metal Hammer, Jeff Loomis has written a solo cacophony like (=shred/speed) album :D[/QUOTE]
hmmm i dunno what u mean but ok....anyway if you listen to bio there vocals arent very \understandable but friggen awsome and old skool none the less.

[Rhapsody is simply awesome. All of their albums are great.]
They're my favourite Power Metal Band of all time..also Luca Turilli's kinda solo project is really good too.

/brutal death fan here :D

[QUOTE=Laihoistheman]i can play part of the solo :p its a kick *** song.[/QUOTE]

The tapping part? The second i heard that i had tolearn to play it. that partis ****ing awesome. I'm glad someone else recognizes the guitar prowess of Jeff loomis.

Man, I still havent met anyone who [I]doesn't[/I] recognizing his ability!

wow. I was depressed for 3 weeks because i couldnt go to Gigantour. Megadeth is my favorite band, followed closely by nevermore.

I'm really not that fussed on Rhapsody. I mean, they're great and everything, but there are far better examples of Power Metal I feel. I'm not sure, but I guess I could rate Blind Guardian's symphonic work over Rhapsody's.

I agree w/you. I really like BG. Does anyone know about Symphony X?

And I my entire day was ruined after I read how two of my favourite bands (nevermore, symphony x) were treated in that festival :(

Blind guardian were the first Power metal band i ever heard, but their almost trash-in their earlier albums. I love um' they own.

Blind Guardian was trash?!?! Just kidding, I know what you meant. Yeah, they were pretty much speed metal in the early albums, but naturally I like the power stuff much better. Can't wait for the new album.

Yeah, that was depressing.

I liked the Speed Metal better, but then NIME grew on me. :)

Ugh, I hate people who intentionally misspell thrash.

I tried listening to some old BG but it didn't have anything for me.

You do know thrash is a hard word to spell.

Do you know what song I can't get enough of. Siberian Winter Running Wild.

Hehe, what a Galloglass binge I have been on. I wish I could sing like Carsten. Also, Heavenseeker is coming out end of October!!! \m/

kalmah, norther: children of bodom
nevermore: communic, biomechanical, into eternity

I want new Angra :( Temple Of Shadows was so good, i need more.

Symphony X should've got one of the bigger time slots... :evil:

Their set was WAAAY too short.

I wish Gigantour came to England :(

I listened to the whole of the The Odysey Pts 1/2/3 on the way to school today.

'Triumphant, champion of Ithica!'

I've done that before :p

It was in my friend's car, and since he's a big fan and the one who showed me the band, he had it up pretty loud on his speakers. Can't help singing along at that part at the end, hehe

Yeh, and the 'Seems like forever my eyes have been denied' bit.

[QUOTE=Arucard]Yeh, and the 'Seems like forever my eyes have been denied' bit.[/QUOTE]

It's the perfect ending. Ties the ending back to the beginning somewhat, and just plain-out sounds great.

Is The Odyssey (the album) any good? I have like 5 tracks from it, but only like a few...Inferno and Wicked.

I love singing (and attempting to play) along with Inferno. It's SOOO awesome...especially as their set opener for Gigantour. :D

The Odyssey kicks most/all Prog metal albums out of the water.
