[Dark_Jester]

I'm honoured dude
Anyway, as well as DT, I'm also and In Flames, Arch Enemy, Blind Guardian and Hammerfall fan...basically, if they sing about broadswords and how cool it is to give orcs a beating on a sunny winter's day, I'm all for it
No concerts, my heavy university committments make it hard at the moment...

@salamurhaaja

BTW, I think is a better thread than the "I'm New" for newbies, this way we actually get to know them a bit more without having to ask everything on that thread as a seperate question

You're right!

So... My name's Elisa, I'm 24 years old and I'm part of this forum's numerous Italians' rank!
My favourites styles of metal are: Death and Folk followed by some Power and "Classic".
Fave bands:
1. Dark Tranquillity
2. Finntroll
4. Skyclad
5. Rage

...and my first musical-love: Queen

 

[Sunjammer]

@lethedon: Queen, huh? Same here.

 

[rahvin]

@lethedon: good on ya for skyclad! they're way up there for me too, or at least they were before martin left.
again, welcome to the forum.

rahvin.

 

[TaRnIsHeD]

if you like less metal/more folk-ish stuff, try getting the following songs:

- penny dreadful
- building a ruin
- postcard from planet earth
- history lessens [no typo, that's the real title]
- another fine mess
- bury me
- the one piece puzzle

on the other hand, you might want to check the harder stuff out with:

- on with their heads!
- spinning jenny
- the widdershins jig
- bellyful of emptiness
- art-nazi
- brimstone ballet
- polkageist

a fairly complete discography can be found at www.skyclad.co.uk : the first two-three albums are quite thrashy, then the following three a rather intense mix of folk and classic metal. then comes the "softest" period (again, a couple of records) and finally a return to the heavier sound. avoid anything without martin walkyier singing, i.e., everything after "folkémon".

Wow Rahvin... Happy on meeting you into another musical taste!
I love Skyclad, and here I have something that could make you "jealous" (...I must go on my previous post and change the answer to the 21st question... ): me and some friends of mine have had the luck of spending an entire week with Martin and I must say that he's a Great Man! By the way, have you ever heard his older SABBAT's stuff (pre-Skyclad) ?! Pretty rough but very effective!

 

[rahvin]

*has a fit of rage*
*whimpers slowly in a corner*

no, really, ok, i'm fine with the fact that you spent a whole week with martin.

i've heard both sabbat records, but i think they lack a certain something. the same after all goes for the very first skyclad album... good ideas on pretty rough material. the exact opposite of the latest records: poor ideas on overly-polished material.

[lethedon]

Don't worry, MY rage for your day with Niklas will last forever!

 

[rahvin]

@lethedon: why don't you take part in the vote-off polls? you'll soon forget about the happy times i've spent with niklas while you were who-knows-where doing who-knows-what with who-knows-who.
