Missiles said:
Hey, you all are wrong.

Angra > you
I am seeing them for free on Wednesday. And yes, they're one of my favorite bands:)

You can add Nightwish, Amorphis, EToS, Skid Row and Loreena McKeennit as my all time favorite bands/artists. Similar stuff is always welcome too.
 
Iron Maiden, Bathory, Enslaved
bla bla bla. yadda yadda yadda. *lists 200 other bands that nobody has the strength to read through*
 
If I would have the time to write all the bands I like, the list would be LONG.

I'll just write a few of them..

-Children of Bodom
-Sentenced
-Sonata Arctica
-Avantasia
-Altaria
-Nightwish
-Norther
-Twilightning
-To/Die/For
-For My Pain...
-Ajattara
-Megadeth
-Iron Maiden
-Metallica (a few songs)
-Charon

That's enough for now. :)
 
Damn it's impressive how none of you have mentioned STRATOVARIUS!

I'll name some of the ones I like but you people might not know and might get into.

X Japan (Japanese people can play metal! Trust me! Yoshiki kicks ass! Check out the song "Kurenai")

Torre de Marfil (One of the best Venezuelan heavy metal bands, check out www.torredemarfil.net, these were the people that were going to open for Sinergy back when they scheduled a gig in Caracas, Venezuela)

Edguy (Kicks ass power metal band from Germany! Tobias Sammet is one hell of a composer, as good as Laiho for sure)


and last but not least

Alcatrazz! (Imagine a band whose guitar players were Steve Vai and Yngwie Malmsteem! Of course not at the same time, but hell yes this band has some good guitar work. Check out "No Parole from Rock and Roll" album. So sad that the band really never got huge with all the good songs and talent)
