Power metal with balls

Were you referring to my post? Well, "Guardian" is definitely an excellent song and if you want to call it a power ballad, you´re free to do so. However, I fail to see why I "must" consider "Awaken The Guardian" a power metal release. To my ears, it sounds very different from Jag Panzer´s "Ample Destruction", which has definitely a heavier and more powerful sound. Call it whatever you will - it has absolutely no effect on the quality of the music itself. (And it seems we don´t disagree on the latter.)Jean-Pierre said:If not Spectre Within, you must consider Awaken The Guardian to be a Power Metal release. It is similar in every way to the melody of Crimson Glory or the insane riffwork of Ample Destruction. It also has the greatest Power Ballad ever written, "Guardian".

Oh, by no means. When I say Ample Destruction, I'm talking solely about the riffwork of the album - it's there, sometimes a bit more thrashy, but there. Yet I still have to ask, what do you consider the album to be?
Metal Church is doing a full US tour to support Weight of the World in...uh...sometime. They just did a dozen or so dates, but they were mostly Western USA.
But you East Coast fags get Overkill. So you can die.

Yeah, but I just moved up to Detroit. I'M ON NO COAST.
Oh well, it was worse in Georgia.
Ew, Georgia. And all that "high-quality local rap talent" OSheaman is always talking about?
On a side note, Iced Earth's Burnt Offeringsin case you didn't already knowis the best power/thrash album ever, and you're some kind of defective if you don't own it and like it.

Overkill is one horrible piece of shit. I think my boss has made me listen to I Hear Black two hundred million times and it never gets any better than barely listenable. FUCK,I say.Pyrus said:

That's their worst album, fuckface, not to mention the only below-average album in their ENTIRE CATALOGUE. You're talking about one of the greatest Thrash bands of all time.

Do you seriously think I haven't heard any of their other shit? Shut the fuck up, and douche your brain. I listen to metal not fucking carnival music.Jean-Pierre said:

All power metal is pretty much "wussier" than any thrash, death, or black metal. But some relatively non-wussy power metal bands are:
Grave Digger
Thy Majestie
early Helloween
Doomsword
