'cmon, why you aren't listening the best powermetal band in the world yet?! here is their live performance, playing metal opera "the fiery god of marrans". even if you don't understand the lyrics, it is still totally worth listening for any powermetal fan out there!

alright I've listened to a few songs and have an opinion
1. dump the keyboardist. keyboards are bad and you usually can't even hear them when you see a band play live. 2. how many vocalists do they have, geez 3. riffs are cool, shame they're overshadowed by (1) and (2) 4. singing in not-english is cool too, even though I don't understand foreign drivel at least it sounds rad 5. what is it with power metal bands and black polo shirts with studs on. where do you even buy such a thing
bottom line, no keyboards and this would be pretty dope (even though they'd still look goofy with like 5 dudes on the stage holding no instruments).

it's a metal opera ("opera" in literal sense, with characters and storyline), so different singers sings for different characters. it works much better when you can understand the lyrics. ;-) actually, alot of different singers is what i like there. ;-)
also, recorded version sounds better, and some vocals are better there too. but i can't tell you where to download it for free, of course. ;-)
anyway, i'm glad you like it. i myself a huge powermetal fan (think about early Helloween, not about something like Rhapsody of Fire), and i really love this band, so i had to share. ;-)

1. dump the keyboardist. keyboards are bad and you usually can't even hear them when you see a band play live. I have to disagree strongly here. Keyboards are awesome. They add another dimension to the music, and offer the opportunity to add depth and completely change the mood or underscore an important moment with ease. If they can't be heard live, that's the fault of the either sound engineer or your equipment, or both.

@vordakk actually I was listening to Manilla Road's The Courts of Chaos today and that shit rips so I am a hypocrite olololololol. Even so, KBs are the most easily misusable of all instruments.

@vordakk Even so, KBs are the most easily misusable of all instruments. Well I certainly won't deny that. There are plenty of "gothic" or "atmospheric" bands that have no clue how to incorporate keyboards into their music and just spam silly shit thinking it will impress their fans.
