23:05 - EMols86 Enjoyed Pyramaze - Melancholy Beast for sure, except for the horrible song called "Until We Fade Away", which reminds me why I don't like (most) power metal.
22:51 - EMols86 Solefald (their debut). Since I'm now checking out Pyramaze (as I said, first time I listen to power metal in years) I'll check your link (Chinese band) after that. :-) Can't believe I actually like Pyramaze...
22:45 - MechanisT The new Blood Red Throne is killer material.
22:45 - Dark†SymphonY What band you talking about Emols?
22:42 - EMols86 Ah that sucks. I listened to it and while I didn't like every aspect of it (some vocals annoyed me, especially at the end) overall I found it quite good.

I have to say that i got in touch of what happened with Stratovarius and Tolkki a few months ago, i mean, the true story. Also find out Tolkki retirement. It made me sad to find out that tragic story and its ending. Then i thought and realized Tolkkis life would be better without all that stress, and that would make him able to face his health problem in a better form. Now i find out this article and it makes me happy to know he is coming back
Seems like Tolkki is no longer able to write good power metal songs, ala "Paradise". The mid-tempos are good ("Shine", "Enshrined In My Memory"), but the fast songs are simply terrible.
