What about Elf?

 

[svarte Kellon]

really though one..I could mention at least 15 bands, but let's say, in no particular order as well
- Evergrey
- Vintersorg/Borknagar
- Opeth
- Lost Horizon
- Blind Guardian
... and many more

 

[Solitude*Dominance*Tragedy]

I listen to a lot of the bands people listed here...cool! Same "taste" of music.

 

[Volfied]

DO you guys exclude Pink Floyd because you don't like/listen to them, or because they are gods for you, too, so you exclude them in lists

 

[Solitude*Dominance*Tragedy]

I like em, but I dont really listen to them much. I only have the Wall, and it gets boring after a while. I like them though

 

[Volfied]

try Dark Side of the Moon and Wish You Were Here, if you have never listened to those two albums before, I'm really serious, the Wall really gets boring after a while when compared to other albums, but they have like 23 albums, so...

 

[Sinistas]

I love Floyd, but they'd be 6 on my list. Gilmour's one of my favorite guitarists.

 

[Kalabalik]

01. Opeth
02. After Forever
03. Evergrey
04. Iced Earth
05. Killswitch Engage

 

[Strahd]

What about Elf?

Elf is ok (and Ronnie's vocals are great as usual) but I far prefer the music he made/is still making from Rainbow and onward.
