Union 5-3992 Posted January 27, 2023 Posted January 27, 2023 I'm very late to the party but Sabaton's WWI records are so much fun!
Union 5-3992 Posted January 27, 2023 Posted January 27, 2023 The music is heavy, it's got all the great cheesiness that power metal is known for, and the lyrics are brutal and epic.

Joakim is a huge history buff, so we do learn stuff in Sabaton's lyrics. I always enjoy them whenever I listen but the lack of variety in the song style leads to me to not go back to them for a while even though there's no denying the epic catchiness of their songs. 2

Definitely. But they deserve the success they have, and I can see why they are so big! I also really like Powerwolf who are massive in Europe, and they have many of the same issues

Segue Myles Posted February 2, 2023 Posted February 2, 2023 I'm in a power metal mood (to my ears it's all just heavy f***ing metal, but never mind): Angra Blind Guardian Rhapsody Of Fire Masterplan 1

invisible airwave Posted February 15, 2023 Posted February 15, 2023 Accidentally posted in some other thread but it's Richard "Weird Al of lounge covers" Cheese. He's even done some song about unrest in the forest. 2
bluefox4000 Posted February 16, 2023 Posted February 16, 2023 Dan Fogelberg i've been playing him near exclusively for about five months and i've played him since i was a teen but i'm having an eye opening experience with him. Rapidly becoming a top 5 all time artist with me. Mick 1
Krystal Posted February 18, 2023 Posted February 18, 2023 I don't buy that much music anymore. But since Mike Portnoy and Rufus Taylor actually gave me the time of day, I feel compelled to buy albums by Dream Theater and The Darkness. 1
Alex’s Amazing Arpeggios Posted February 18, 2023 Posted February 18, 2023 Pink Cream 69 ( I’ve been aware of them for ages ! 🙃... but am only just now finally checking out their back catalogue 👍😎)
Timbale Posted February 19, 2023 Posted February 19, 2023 Early Elton John. I found a live record on spotify that is I think 1970 - Burn Down the Mission, Take Me To the Pilot etc... at that point, he was just playing with a bassist and a drummer, and man, it sounds good. Amazing harmonies. He made so much schlock later on, but Tumbleweed Connection and Honky Chateau are really the s**t. 3

I think it was a radio concert from his first trip to the US. It is one of his best! 💕💕💕 2
Segue Myles Posted February 19, 2023 Posted February 19, 2023 P!nk Dan Fogelberg Bruce Springsteen (mostly songs over albums this time around) In Flames And various seventies/eighties soft rock 1
bluefox4000 Posted February 19, 2023 Posted February 19, 2023 Any Singer/songwriter but mostly these two Jackson Browne Dan fogelberg i'm not in the mood for anything heavy. too much for me lately This era of music just speaks to me more these days. Mick

Super25Smasher Posted February 24, 2023 Author Posted February 24, 2023 The Callous Daoboys. They're a very experimental mathcore band with some unusual instruments for the genr, including saxophone and violin. They remind me of Every Time I Die and Dillinger Escape Plan.

I'd always heard good things about his drummer, but never paid that much attention. I wish there was more live stuff from that era! 1
