Nah better than my first impression of it. Both genres frequently rely on some concept of image which can be equally stupid, depending on the individual band.

Agreed. But for fuck's sake, "anti-human. anti-life." That's just pure class.
 
Why not throw death metal in there aswell then?

"I eat babies, and defecate on a bible that came out of a dead cows womb"

Let's just make blanket statement's and pretend were in GMD. :dopey:

Aha yeah, death metal should be in there that's for sure.

They easily poop on that "The Gathering" cd in your avatar thats for sure. :)

Humm I'm not the biggest power metal fan. I like early Angra and some Blind Guardian. Any chance I like this Manticora band?
 
power metal is fairly cheesy and really really gay. (rampantly so).

TRUE Black metal as you're referring to it, is so fucking hilarious cheesy... yet they lack the "so cheesy they rule" of bands like manowar.

I will always give them the benefit of the doubt except for their artwork which generally sucks

True. On the other hand, I really like Souvenirs' cover. The new one is not too bad either I guess.

No but in all seriousness. There's some power metal that shit's down all the other metal sub genre's throats. Manticora anyone ? :dopey:
Manticora is one of those bands that I should love; dark, heavy, cool vocals. But they just bore me to tears. I find their CDs to be a chore to listen to. I was hoping they would convert me, when I caught them live at ProgPower last year... no dice. Even Dark One, whose been a fan of theirs forever, thought they were disappointing.
