If there's a home for Def Leppard on MetalStorm then there's absolutely no reason why we shouldnt build one for Night Ranger.
Listen to songs like Lay It On Me and No Time To Lose Ya and you will understand why.
Please help me folks we have a nice new home for Night Ranger to build.
They truly deserve a slot on MetalStorm... +1 from me and maybe one from you as well?

Thing is Def Leppard's first album was undeniably a heavy metal album.
23.12.2018 - seba.rock
this great band can not be missing in Metal Storm
28.01.2019 - Dead In Hell
Def Leppard, whatever one thinks of the music's quality, was technically a metal band at some point (albeit of the hair variety). Night Ranger never really came close to being metal of any variety. If Boston is blacklisted, then Night Ranger doesn't have a spot here either. |

Nice Band. I Am A Fan Myself. Got To Be On MS
05.08.2009 - Syk
I... don't think so... last I heard they were a soft/mid Christian rock band
08.01.2011 - Axe Argonian
Absolutely not. They are a rock band not a metal band.
02.04.2011 - Xim
They're Post-grunge and if not even Alter Bridge is allowed here I don't think this band has a chance in hell.
18.04.2011 - DarkSymphony500
Not from me -1
22.08.2011 - BoxCar Willy
GAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!
26.12.2012 - Jaeryd17
I agree with Xim. Alter Bridge is way more metal than this band could ever hope to be, and it isn't on here. This band is too far on the alt-rock/post-grunge side. Doesn't belong here at all.
Also, out of all the alt-rock/post-grunge bands, they're one of my least favorite. So I'm biased. But still, no.

Kandia are a female-fronted rock band from Portugal. They've been doing everything by themselves so they need all the promo and support they can get. They release their single "Reflections" today and it features JP Leppaluoto from Gothic band CHARON!
You should have them here on Metal Storm because they are fresh and have a tremendous sound!
Thanks!
19.01.2010 - FrostWind
Ye they have good sound, however not sure if they are fully metal. In addition, I will still give +1 to it.
14.10.2011 - Darklands
Seen them last night supporting Within Temptation in their show in Lisbon.
They are definitely Gothic Metal.
29.05.2014 - Dark Forever

One of the most fast and rising band stars in all Brazil. Combine a mix of heavy, thrash, doom and progressive that makes each music a joy to hear. One of my favourite bands in the last years. Each member has amazing musical experience and ability... It would be a great addition to the "Metal Storm team".

Just labelling them Progressive is a bit unfair, as it's quite a melodic death metal affair as well at times. The riffs are technical, heavy, but at the same time not just self-indulgent wanking. Check out the whole thing here for free: http://soulcyclemetal.bandcamp.com/

Aeternitas is a symphonic gothic metal group, mixing elements of medieval and Latin literature, operatic choirs and soprano vocals. The Myspace is not for the gothic band but for a death metal band with same name which no longer exists. |

*symphonic metal
16.06.2016 - ManiacBlasphemer
Symphonic metal. Plenty of bands made symphonic metal adapted to score music. Nightwish for example. That doesn't mean they deserve a separate genre. |

30.05.2012 - Die Hacker [PT]
One-man black metal assault by Vulturius working since middle 90s, 2 studio albums, 1 live album, several splits and demos and a prolific work in the underground that really requires more attention. |
