15:03 - Cynic Metalhead From the review of Kylsea's Ultraviolet : ""If you don't like this pun you can F.O.A.D because it's brilliant." What? it's not even a pun. stupid SoxCar Silly.

12:13 - Jaeryd17 Just got back from the Opeth concert in Tucson, AZ. Good good good good good good. Good.
10:16 - Spirit Molecule Cool review Willy, I'm still giving the album a couple more spins online. I think there are some cool parts but overall it didn't do much for me. But heck, the production is awesome. Got this nice big sound with all the layers

07:38 - Moose Revocation's upcoming fifth studio album will be self-titled I see. I really dislike when bands do that. Oh well, still very much looking forward to it.

The 'heroic fantasy power metal' band Gloryhammer consists of:
Christopher Bowes (Alestorm) - Keyboards
Thomas Winkler (Emerald) - Vocals
Paul Templing (Sorcerer's Spell) - Guitars
James Cartwright (Sorcerer's Spell) - Bass
Ben Turk (Sorcerer's Spell) - Drums
You know the difference between this and typical power metal? Many of power metallers trying to be serious during playing songs about unicorns and dragons, when Gloryhammer aren't serious:P
Oh dear , this is a mockery of power metal , i agree i think some power metal bands suck dildos but there are so many that dont and have created something special.
Edit: Now that I've had time to actually listen to this, I like it. It's not as uber cheesy as I would've expected from a power metal parody band.
Anybody think his armor looks like Oblivion Glass armor?
Haha, that was the first thing I noticed and thought to myself: "oh, glass armor!"
About the band itself, power metal (the kind where they sing about fantasy lands and stuff) is supposed to be cheesy in my opinion. I'm not a big fan of it anymore, but I still like listening to it from time to time.
Anybody think his armor looks like Oblivion Glass armor?
Maybe it's because I used to play Warhammer Fantasy Battles in my early teens, but I thought he looked like a Chaos Warrior!
Really like the song as well. I live not too far from Scotland, so it was pretty cool to hear something actually about Scottish heritage (although it's alternative reality Scottish heritage, so I'm taking what I hear from these guys with a pinch of salt).
