OK everyone, for some strange reason, I've been in the mood to buy some power metal/progressive metal over the past few weeks...not really sure where to begin....
Anyone know of anything that's definately worth checking out (I've heard random songs off Snakenet metal radio by bands like Stratovarius, Sonata Artica, and the like....but don't know what's worth checking out, and don't want to waste my money....any ideas?
Also, any thoughts on Dream Theater? I've been listening to Awake for the past week straight (after not touching the CD for about 6 years or so)....What else by them is as good?better?
I know it's not an Opeth thread....but just looking for ideas from some people who share a love for Opeth...
