I just like them because I like them...plain & simple.
Sweet-ass vocals, stunning lyrics, epic and dynamic guitar riffs and solos that don't get any better than that, and...their image kicks ass and appeals to me greatly. The forest and darkness....whenever they take shots of themselves, they are in the woods or somethin'....damn, I love that shit!
Mikael??
i thought this was Britney Spears band....
Doh!
I wanted to say almost everything that Alcopoth said. Yummy verbal masturbation. Sweet-ass vocals, stunning lyrics, epic and dynamic guitar riffs and solos...their image kicks ass...

Nuff said. They're just about everything I'd ask for in metal. Where's Claire's Horror? All I can think of when I read and contribute to threads like this is, how'd he put it? "WANK WANK WANK" Makes me laugh. It's true but oh so gratifying.
