Blind Guardian - At The Edge of Time
-
As something a bit off the wall, I'd recommend this band[^], and not just because their Kirk Hamster look alike guitarist is my jam partner. They've just come off tour with Marillion, and are gaining quite a bit of exposure (they are a popular fixture at ROSFEST in America).

I always like Helloween[^]. Last time I saw them, they were in a lineup with Megadeth, Kiss, Maiden and Dave Lee Roth. They held their own with the bigger name bands. Mind you, I always did like the twin guitar Euro bands like the Scorpions.

I want out's my favourite as well. It's full on 80s kitsch.

Yes. I love the new manowar. There's no denying it is cheesy, but it's all terrific fun

You don't have to tell me about them - I'm a long, long, long term prog fan - but I always preferred Sylvia from Focus. It's a much more lyrical track, and the time signature changes are stunning. I grew up listening to bands like Focus, ELP, King Crimson (as well as the more standard metal and rock acts). Basically, if there was an electric guitar, some distortion and musical ability, I probably listened to it.

You've got to love Manowar. They don't take themselves seriously.

how could they ? :P My favourite lyric is 'In heavy metal, we believe, if you don't like it, time to leave'

I was a big Helloween fan, saw them in concert twice ( once with Iron Maiden ) Never was a big fan of Blind Guardian tho ... I haven't listen to the whole album, but by sampling it, I feel it's a mix of Rhapsody/Angra/Dream Theater, no ? (And I loved the earlier albums of Angra and Dream Theater)

I always found them to be generic. The best Eurometal is nightwish, hands down

EUROmetal? :wtf: Well wow - how generic is this? Yes you could put Blind Guardian and Nightwish in kinda the same box (though you should call it something like epic/melodic/opera-metall but there is a lot more going on in europe (just look at the nordics) to just label it EURO ... There is the hole range of metal - from black/death to progressive and aside from a few exceptions every major metal band seems to come from some EU country nowadays ... :rolleyes: btw: nightwish is not what it used to be ... just popish rock ... go listen to some Amorphis, Draconian or even Epica :-D

Something like that, as I haven't listened to Blind Guardian all that much - I found this album to my liking - at least I did so yesterday :-)
