Fair enough.
Its just they are the primary band of all the non metal I listen to where it kills me how many power metal fans are NOT into. I think people have a severe misconception as to what they sound like.
They are hands down my favorite discovery in recent years.

Have you made it around to their mid '80s albums like Abominog where they sound like Foreigner? I love that stuff.
and there would be no Heep without the Beatles and ....your point is?
I hate that statement you made....who cares if a band wouldnt exist because another. Why should I HAVE to like something because another bands influenced them?

Fair point. I never really "got" Pink Floyd, even though they're an obvious influence on a lot of the bands I like.

I love Pink Floyd, but that's a whole other topic.....
Taking it back to the Beatles is quite a stretch.
There is a definite direct influence of Heep on many bands you like.
I always really enjoy discovering older bands and going, "wow, so that's where Band X really got their sound"
It just seems you limit yourself to the current bands and ignore the bands who did it first, and often times better.
DoomSword and Grand Magus are two examples. You love them, but say Manilla Road and Candlemass suck.
I seriously don't know in any universe how that could make sense.
Hey, it's all subjective. Your likes are just the quirkiest in the business!!!! LOL

I have the one BEST OF PART 2 that has a lot of that stuff on it.
It seems past Firefly it gets a bit uneven.
What I really want to check out are the first few with Bernie.
Wake the Sleeper and Into the Wild are brilliant.
Poor man's Deep Purple my ass!!!!!!!!

"Never Really"? Is that your way of pretending you didn't inhale??????? :Smug:
cool....then go out and pick up all the power metal bands influenced by Helloween since you should like them....right? kind of a reverse way of thinking.

Eh, in a perfect world, I would indeed agree with you Sir Catman......
Though, as you know, the power metal scene has WAY more generic bands than most genres (Well, DM might be close).
For doom though, I do like plenty bands that were influenced by the classics.
I think that logic isn't universal across all genres.
I am telling you man. I REALLY REALLY wish you had seen Uriah Heep live.
You would have liked it a lot.

I would just like to go on record here and say that Atlantean Kodex is the single greatest Epic Heavy Metal band currently active right now. With the possible exception of Solstice, if you consider them Epic Heavy Metal. Anyone who disagrees shall be challenged to a mace duel.
