Tried any Yngwie Malmsteen? Looking at your other bands, u might like him.

Then again, maybe not. I'm told he's an acquired taste.

Yngwie is trash. Kerry King, now theres someone who can write(and play) a song with a fucking tune. B) Malmsteen is the Kenny G. of metal.

But you might like Intense. The only bad thing is that they havent released their album to the public but offer 2 songs to download for free(in .wma format but you can re-encode them) and their vocalist sounds like hes gargling with salt water then he sings.


But still good. The Skull of Sidon and the Winged are good songs.

Or if you want some metal thats cheesy and incredibly stupid theres always MAnowar.
Or there is ICed Earth but their music aint that heavy. Like Iron Maiden meets thrash metal.

I recommend Angeldust. For powermetal. The lyrics are kindof funny in the "english is not my first language" way, but the singer and keyboardist are amaaaazing.

try "bleed" and "black rain"

I do not have "Power Metal/speed Metal" as a Category in my Database.I have "Death Metal/Black Metal" and "Heavy Metal" as the closest Categorys related to that.So still thinking about what Bands to Post.

I have heard a few Malmsteen songs ... well, he's realy good but I don't like it him that much.

I'll try Intense and Angeldust.

There are 6 songs of Manowar that I realy love (The Power,Fight Until We Die,My Spirit Lives On,The Oath,Hands Of Doom & House Of Death), but the rest is total crap.

Thanx for the suggestions. B)
