Thread for being unnecessarily hostile to people who hate power metal

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.

the glam Pantera hair makes me LOL and LOL and LOL mainly bc Anselmo looked like Rikki Rockett and no amount of hardcore dickishness can ever remove that image from my mind which is why I giggle whenever I see him

as per the key law of this thread you must now be unnecessarily hostile to yourself

no disrespect to anyone (aside from wimps, posuers, etc) but if Mercyful Fate is power metal, then the Ramones are 90's Lookout Records pop-punk

I never said Mercyful Fate were power metal AND I WILL GOUGE OUT YOUR EYES WITH MY RUSTY SPOON FOR READING IT AS SUCH

wait you eat with a spoon? my confidence is shaken in you. knives do everything spoons do, only sharper and more swordlike.

Nay I do not eat with my spoon, a plague on you for suggesting such...like the many weapons at my disposal I consider the rusty spoon yet another brush that I use to creat my art...part of the panopoly of instruments with which I draw the agonised screams of the vanquished

"bare grace misery" or gtfo

this is like my favorite fucking song ever and I want it played as they're launching my boat across the Styx

There's no Styx song called that wtf

yeah there is - the one that starts "Babe I'm leaving, I must be on my way/bare grace misery"

is it any wonder i've got
bare grace misery

Pantera's Power Metal is a pretty damn good album.

Sonata Arctica are Kings of the Keytar and FUIUD

wait a second

I just looked at that Wikipedia list and unless I'm mistaken, everyone hear is swearing fealty to Yngwie Malmsteen

er, here

my bafflement is ruining my spelling

Not everyone

yet you spelled ynbwie mlmslteen correctly

y'all can get as hostile as you want, all I have to say is "fuck you, you like Yngwie Malmsteen"

Yngwie J. Malmsteen

dan otm!

although I will admit that "Metal Gods" by Midnight Sun is awesome

yngwie pretty much sucks but I'm glad "I am a viking" exists

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8sVAY2TlYo

he is a viking of playing guitar

in guitar he is a viking

I was about to say, you can't knock Midnight Sun there, Dan.

such creativity,speed,iron will, discipline and technal prowess over the instrument,yngwie continues to show mortals how its done...

long live malmsteen,cause,just like bach,or beethoven-yngwie's music will be a divine inspiration a 100 years from now....

one time a friend mistakenly dialed my my number (name starts with an "a," it happens a lot) and left me a voice mail that was just a half hour of him driving around and listening to yngwie malmsteen.

"friend" admit it, it was your dad

you got me. it was my dad. and his name is "yngwie malmsteen".

listening to Yngwie Malmsteen is like listening to a precocious, lonely teenager masturbate

so that's what you did as a teen?

people were in awe of my flawless fingering technique

Yngwie answering machine story is amazing!
have any of you ever tried to play a guitar w/ a scalloped neck?
I almost namechecked Chris Impellitteri the other day. Shrapnel shred isn't really proper power metal, though, I guess.

btw dan you might like this thread

A link to this thread seems appropriate:

John Petrucci brings you...ROCK DISCIPLINE (a picture thread if the pictures can fit)

arby's/rabies and I got into a Vai img/video posting thing on facebook the other night. the "For the Love of God" video, goddamn!

don't really consider Malmsteen in the proper Viking-hard-charging style of heavy metal though I'm sure all the bands who are unambiguously power metal would rep for him all day

mainly I just wrote that sentence to distract power metal haters while I put sugar in their gas tanks or in the case of the inevitable crashing bore who's primed to type "I don't have a car!", to drop a deuce on the screen right where you last typed your name

computer looks and smells awesome now you dickheads

fuck you, you like Yngwie Malmsteen

you probably share a middle name with him ;)

You mean "Fucking"

Yngwie is my dad and he told me to tell you guys to eat a dick

that was exactly how he put it

"the 'J' stands for 'Fucking', as in 'the fucking fury you JUST unleashed'"

people who hate power metal share a fucking w/ yngwie malmsteen

Indeed.

"the 'J' stands for 'Fucking', as in 'the fucking fury you JUST unleashed'"

lol

you mess with the Wingie, you get the 20 minute shredding solo bridge in the 90 minute shredding power metal song

aerosmith is it cool if I call your Dad 'Wingie'?

only if we can call smithy wangie

you'd be wise to keep a civil tongue in your head when addressing the aerosmith, goalkeeper
