Ronnie James Dio was a great man. What he lacked in size, he had in the voice. My god, this small thin man on the stage with such a powerful aura and this god-gift of a voice. I will never forget him. Fortunately, I had the privilege to see him live three times and those were truly great...

I would say this is the most uplifting song I know. It stands for everything metal really is: friendship, brotherhood and simply the pure joy of living: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=506b7VpKzCY&feature=related Doro - All we are

This here is really depressing: Of course, I would have named One Last Goodbye, but someone already did, but I guess, this one is also very heavy and painful and all. Anathema is absolutely great in bringing you down ;-) Definitely one of the most underestimated bands of all times. I love...

Thanks for the warm welcome, guys. Well, I heard a few tracks on YouTube before, and the one that convinced me that this band really deserves to be heard was Ocean Land. Kobi is an unbelievable singer, there are not many who are able to growl and sing clear vocals. I was singing in a Death...

My first experience with Orphaned Land was the documentary Global Metal. I never heard of the band before, but when I watched the movie, I was instantly enchanted by the unbelievable music they make. I just got the new album a few days ago and it is pure magic. One of the most groundshaking...

I'm still hoping that they will do a German Tour in the next years. I would love to see them live, but there is no chance for me to get to Wacken or any other Festival. So please, guys, do a German Tour.
