The Power metal thread

Just bought Thy Majestie - Hastings 1066 yesterday, excited for it to show up in my mailbox.

 

[Einherjar86]

Thy Majestie's awesome. I've heard most of Hastings, and it sounds great.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Insania is rocking my socks right now!

 

[The Butt]

3 Inches of Blood gets my thumbs-up, they're a really fun band. I'd like to see their live show sometime. I've got Hibria on right now though so all I can focus on now are STEEEEEL LORDS ON WHEEEEELS!

I fully endorse this product and/or service.

 

[Rabid Headbanger]

They should boot the screamo-fag and go total King Diamond.

Couldn't agree more.

 

[The Butt]

I acutally sorta like the screamer, but meh. Different people, different tastes I guess.

 

[Rabid Headbanger]

No seriously. And they need more leather and/or spikes.

Somewhere between Judas Priest and Nifelhiem.

 

[Hatebreeder]

I agree with Rabid, the screamer has to go. I find his voice grating and detrimental to what is otherwise a very solid musical formula.

Of course, my opinion of this band fluctuates often.

They should stop making music. They would suck just about as much with or without the screaming shit.

 

[The Butt]

^ I disagree, but to each his own.

What if they just did mercyful fate covers?

 

[skeptik]

Then they would be thoroughly redundant. And Cam Pipes fucking sucks anyway.

 

[Hatebreeder]

What if they just did mercyful fate covers?

Then they'd be no better than Metallica.

 

[skeptik]

They're far, far, far worse than Metallica.

 

[Hatebreeder]

They're far, far, far worse than Metallica.

Obviously.

But it would take them a whole lot of sucking to get down to the level of "sell-out" at which Metallica currently sits.

So, does Metallica suck because they haven't put out anything good in awhile or because they never put out anything good?

 

[Rumpole]

First three Metallica = gold. They suck because they haven't put out anything good in a long while, with the exception of disc 2 of Garage Inc.

The former. So, I guess they don't suck as much as 3 Inches of Blood, but if we're comparing them at the moment, I'd rather listen to 3IoB.
