I like Dragonforce just fine but they're definitely a band where if you've heard one song you know exactly what to expect from all the others.

I am old enough to have come across DragonForce when they were called Dragon Heart and had a version of Valley of the Damned with a different singer up on mp3.com.

I saw dragonforce live a few months ago and crashed and got depressed afterwards because it was simply too fun The Zelda song was cringe but no more so than singing about elves in mordor or whatever They were absolutely my gateway drug for power metal after guitar hero III and broke me out of listening exclusively to System of a Down

I can’t hate on a band that use fans to blow back their hair and trampets to do silly jumps on. They’re a circus act and I’m fine with that. When I saw them in 2005 or so though, it was mainly to see Edguy open for them. Amazing.

Why is Amazon music so loving annoying? I just want to listen to the Lord of the Lost album that I purchased and Amazon decided I wanted a german song called “I hate kids” mixed in and now I’m bummed out.

Hey. So. Maybe I missed it, but even if I did, gently caress it and give it another listen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2YqZuo1WKk4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLPaGqGzdY0 There is absolutely no loving reason why Judas Priest should be this loving good this late in their career. What the gently caress. Has there been any other band that still released absolute quality 40 years into their career?

I'm pretty amazed how well Halford's vocals have held up. Yeah he doesn't sit in the higher pitches like he used to but the quality of his vocals hasn't degraded at all. He must have some good technique to keep it up.

I know tech started it and I love tech100%, but drat thats some ignorant uninformed propaganda poo poo. Especially that guy vinne paz is just so full of poo poo its offensive Modal Auxiliary posted:I almost posted the lyrics too lol. That whole album is actually really dope.

Judas Priest is still on his prime  Speaking of (not so) older bands making a comeback: Austrian Death Machine is releasing a new album "Quad Brutal" in February after a 10 year hiatus: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cCJDPgEB-PM

No shade intended toward the many artists who did good work last year but I think I already like the latest Hoplites album (his fourth in the last year) more than anything from 2023.

Saxon have a ton of rad albums but also like everything between Power and the Glory and Lionheart outside of Crusader’s title track is kinda mid.
