    Default Looking for new bands

    I'm looking for more bands of a style similar to those that I already like. My favourite bands are Dragonforce, Freedom Call, Gaia Epicus, Cryonic Temple, Power Quest and Sabaton. Anyone else got any recommendations for other bands judging by those?

    Here's some examples of songs I like, by those bands.

    Not too fond of power/speed metally type of music, though Blind Guardian are an exception:






    I'm not really sure whether this is what you're looking for.

    Look up the song 'Asylum' by the band 'Disturbed'. Enjoy.
    when the union's inspiration through the worker's blood shall run,
    there can be no power greater anywhere beneath the sun,
    yet what force on earth is weaker than the feeble strength of one?
    but the union makes us strong.

    How does this music sound anything like what he asked for? Every Disturbed song sounds the same anyway.

    Hammerfall has some pretty awesome songs.
    These fine gentlemen's have thanks to their consistent idiotic posts have earned their place on my ignore list: mrmouth, The Illusionist, motiv-8, mongrel, azoth, thorn777 and elfdude. If you want to join their honourable rank you just have to post idiotic posts and you will get there in no time.

    If I didn't know exactly what you were talking about I would have thought that was an epically well phrased insult

    I think you need better taste in metal.


    But by far the best power metal band is Kamelot. The Black Halo is the best, but anything post-Siege Perilous is gold.


    Blind Guardian are another exception to power metal mediocrity.

    Fleet Foxes. If you like metal music, you'll definitely like these guys.

    Fleet Foxes are excellent, but probably not up the OP's alley.
