perhaps unwisely, I will use this thread to unveil my most shameful metal secret... I was always more of a sci-fi guy and never really cared about lord of the rings.

please do not judge me too harshly, for I still know what is best in life. (crushing your enemies, seeing driven before you, hearing the lamentations of the women, and power metal.)

okay look basically if you have a big-arse gunmetal sword and a big-arse black suit of armour made of black armadillo hide and reside in a big black castle with gigeresque turrets and gargoyles and loads of lightning everywhere it's fine, but if you're in a calico sack and your ears are a bit pointy and you live in a village with a herb garden and an incidental cauldron you should not be hacking that stick bass like a norse warrior

i feel a little bad about all of my hostility in this thread so as a lift you up by your bootstraps attempt i offer sort of a beginners guide to people who hate power metal
1. listen to power metal2. suck less3. try it again4. take a long serious look in the mirror and hate your weakness5. listen to power metal6. succeed in sucking less(optional: fail in sucking less, stab your failing eyes out with the shards of your nickleback cd collection)

We're all in agreement that Gamma Ray totally sucks though, right?
I can't get enough of Sonata Arctica. They're catchy, they're good live, and they're not above having some fun. Same goes for Edguy.

I'd be okay calling King Diamond power metal...but then that drags me into well then what's Mercyful Fate...and in my dark little attic of a mind, they're both just kind of sitting there on their own, in their own category. Because, well...fuck, that's how it should be.
