Good Music

Originally posted by TheGodThatFailed: Strato and angra, aah, bring back memories. I overplayed power metal, and moved onto black metal. Although, i still love dragonforce, good to see Valley... in there Alot of my music is downloaded, but if i like it, then i buy the cd. I have atleast 1 cd by every band i have listed, and most i have at least 3 by, it's a good way to get a decent collection of something, and a good way of knowing wether you like it or not before you buy.

Well CDs of the more obscure bands are hard to come by here

Favourite songs:

Dragonforce - Soldiers of the Wasteland
Nightwish - Wish I Had an Angel
Nightwish - Phantom of the Opera
Nightwish - Over the Hills and Far Away
Iron Maiden - Fear of the Dark
Iron Maiden - Dance of (with?) the Dead
Angra - Acid Rain
Stratovarius - Destiny
Green Day - Blvd. of Broken Dreams
Green Day - J.A.R. (Jason Andrew Relva... or something like that)
The Offspring - The Worst Hangover Ever
The Offspring - Self Esteem
The Offspring - Mota
The Offspring - Bad Habit

Over her we have a post order magazine that has a lot of CDs. They even made a new viking metal part with some great CDs. Battlelore is kind of hard to get though especially their first CD. But I can order all Amon Amarth CDs there.

Aah, cool. I'm still hunting for a decent place i can get stuff, over where i live (england) the place is crowded with chavs, and rap fans, so there's little room for metal

www.hxcmp3.com check out this site for lots of bands

[TheGodThatFailed]

Aah, thanks again I usually ask a firend who lives in sweden to send me songs over MSN, but that's not appropriate, becuase the MSN transfer sucks...

I really like some classic rockers like Rush, Jethro Tull, Zeppelin and AC/DC.

Throw in a few bands like They Might be Giants and the Aquabats for hilarity's sake. Seriously, try to find a song called Pool Party, I Fell Asleep on My Arm, or Worms make Dirt, by the Aquabats, and/or download a video of them on stage dressed up as superheroes and have yourself a good laugh and some silly dancing. They're quite entertaining live.

As for metal, the metal stations in Dallas slowly began dropping the ball in the late 90's, and now it's basically gone all except for sickening displays of "Hair Metal".

So I had to explore through the internet in sites like the old MP3.com to find out what was going on in metal, and it's by far my preferred music.

I like Candlemass, Bolt Thrower, Iron Maiden, Reign in Blood era Slayer, Dragonheart, Dragonforce (not to be confused with eachother, movies, or otherwise lol), Angra, Opeth, Rhapsody, the Russian band Epidemia, Farmakon, Ilnath, Iced Earth, Death, Arch Enemy, Children of Bodom, Celtic Frost, Sonata Arctica, Mercyful Fate, Mithotyn, the Storyteller, Old Man's Child, Blind Guardian, Between the Buried and Me, Beyond the Embrace, In Flames, Dark Tranquility (lots of people here do too!), Old Funeral...

*takes a breath*

There's about 200 more, but we're mostly just scanning for bands we know anyway, lol.

I'll check out that site later though, thanks! Finding and listening to new music isn't as easy as I'd like it to be.

I always check this site for samples. http://musica.mustdie.ru/en/musicians It has a lot of different stuff and bands.

[TheGodThatFailed]

Aah, some great metal choices Lucern. But, Dragonheart and Dragonforce are the same band They changed their name.

Also, it's good to see some more Sonata Arctica fans [img]smile.gif[/img]
