How about: Tarot - Tides (from Crows Fly Black), Therion - Siren Of The Woods (from Theli), Virgin Black - A Poet's Tears Of Porceline (from Sombre Romantic), Judas Priest - New Love (from Nostradamus), Nightwish - Slow, Love, Slow (from Imaginaerum) and Sinergy - Laid To Rest (from To Hell And Back) and Written In Stone (from Suicide By My Side). And, of course, the most beautifully disturbing song I've ever heard. Sinergy's Razor Blade Salvation, from Beware The Heavens.
---- "I'm here to nunchuck and not wear helmets. And I'm all out of helmets." "I'll fight you on one condition. That you lower your nipples." " 'Tis a lie! Thy backside is whole and ungobbled, thou ungrateful whelp!"

Posts: 3471 Written by ~Starchild~ on 11.03.2012 at 17:25 Your welcome. I got the album when I saw it as a staff pick a year or two ago and thought the album title was awsome. And an amazon review said it sounded like a mix of avant-garde metal, ska punk and circus music.

Posts: 40071 Written by ~Starchild~ on 24.03.2012 at 16:54 check it out, I am sure you will love it. Try to get hold of a live version. Most of the time the live version of the song is better than the already great studio version.

Posts: 40071 Written by ~Starchild~ on 24.03.2012 at 17:03 Great to see you like it enough to put it in your list. Y&T is a toally underrated band with some great tunes. And I Believe In You is their best, I think. Especially a live version of it. Ever since I first heard it in 1982 I play it a couple of times a year on average at least.

Yes, I love Enigma by Amorphis! I actually made a piano/mellotron arrangement of that song, it is beautiful.
