I've noticed recently several references to power and prog metal bands such as Blind Guardian, Stratovarius, Gamma Ray and even Nightwish! This pleases me. It's a genre I've recently got into and i just wondered how other people heard of these bands, if they'd seen any, who their favorites were etc etc... Personally i love Blind Guardian and Freedom Call, and i've seen them live along with Gamma Ray at a Brtish Metalfest called Bloodstock...did anyone else got there? I also saw Threshold there, and I've also recently discovered a more gothic band from Germany called Evereve...they're not as complex as some of the others, but their cover of house of the rising sun is amazing...i recommend their album "regret" to anyone who likes the sound of this.
Work hard...Play hard...Break a string...:mad:
