I made a little research on wikipedia and the description of their sound wasn't too encouraging(sounds like it could be pretty cheesy), but it wouldn't hurt checking them out, which album(s) do you recommend?
People are fucking crazy about them here ! I don't like them that much, they never come to my mind when i want to listen to something new
It's a good band and tad underrated
I think in the symphonic metal there are two far superior bands, which are Hollenthon and Therion, though Therion is the closer of the two in terms of sound. Their music is fine I think, but nothing mind-boggling over there.
