Wait, which song is actually talking about that golden sword of steel? Can someone please just tell me. 🙂

Austin Phillips3, what's actually wrong with that phrase? I don't get all those "lol"s... explain it to a dumb geek like me! 😉

Dark Tranquillity and Tristania are solid bands.🙂

well, it’s clearly inspired by LOTR 🙂
the Guardians in general are 👍

😁 Everything was fine while Turril was shredding on the guitar. 🙂 You can even find talent in the absolute worst bands. 🙂

briskjackal5 really knows his stuff. This info is legit!👍

That’s the truth. 🙂

Hey, do you know anything about that new Turill album? Is it actually any good?

Since we can't have all these posers (who've been hanging around for a long time 🤣) getting their hands on such a legendary band, I've password-protected the file. For those true fans who actually listen to all subgenres of heavy metal rather than just the radio hits, this shouldn't be an issue at all.

The password is the name of the band that released the shortest single in history. 😬

STAY METAL FOREVER 🙏 🙏

Thanks for the tip! Napalm Death rules.😉

Bryan Barrett said:I just found them online now🙂

O_O 😲 WHERE?! Are we talking about a download link or what?! 😲 😁

Eleven years and seven months. That's how long it's been.

I was only asking about heavy metal, not the entire genre. If you aren't actually listening to power metal, then you have zero years and zero months of experience. Period.
Are you even listening to heavy metal? If you want to weigh in, stick to threads where Black is actually involved. Stop spouting nonsense about power when it’s obvious you don't have a clue and zero experience with this music.

Austin Phillips3, how much heavy metal do you actually listen to?

Change of subject:

Has anyone ever heard of Metallica? They’re easily one of the rarest finds out there if you're digging through underground heavy metal.
I only have two tracks 😢
Does anyone actually own an album by them? I know for a fact there's one called: Metallica : Salvation by Fire!
It’s basically some kind of power speed stuff.

Austin Phillips3 said:The poll tells you everything you need to know! 🙂

I’m not about to start making clones all over this forum 😉

And you call it "music"? Power metal isn't just music... it's art. 🙂 Stay true! 🙂

😂 😂 Nice picture.

Austin Phillips3, why do you feel the need to insult bands just because they aren't your cup of tea? That doesn't make them garbage. You claim Hammerfall is bottom-tier... based on what scale? Yours? Well, I’m happy to tear that little scale of yours to shreds.
Did you even realize that Rhapsody is one of those rare bands where the members actually finished music academy... in Juilliard! If you know anything at all about music, you know how incredibly difficult that curriculum is.
My playlist runs the gamut from Death and black metal through thrash and straight into power metal. Most bands sound good to me. And even when they don't, I'm not going to call them trash because I respect the effort they put in—even if it's just noise!
(The only thing I can't stand is punk. Honestly, it sounds like people banging on pots and pans... like UK Subs or whatever. It's terrible! But again, that's just my own scale.) So, please, spare us the unnecessary comments and your messed up little hierarchy. Thanks.
God bless you 😘

Like I said... their covers are actually solid! 🙂

👍 👍

Do they even have a new album out yet? I haven't listened to them in ages.

Everyone loves to claim that Hammerfall is just some commercial sellout act, but honestly? They can actually play their instruments.🙂 And let’s be real—they easily have some of the best album art out there!

I had no idea the third installment was out already. Does anyone here actually have a copy? Is it even worth the time? 😲

And I listen to Rhapsody... along with a massive pile of other metal bands...😎

now playing: Luc Turilli - Where heroes lie

👍 😁

Unfortunately, I've only made it to a Live Action Role Playing event twice. 😢 I just don't have the time. It's a cool hobby, though.
(It’s just a total mess because the community is "corrupt as hell!" I show up with my sword and they tell me the foam is too thin. Then some older guy shows up with the exact same sword and suddenly everything is fine! What kind of rules are those?!)

Did you guys know that Stara used to be from America? I read that somewhere. If only they would tour America or even just hit up New York City! 🙂 That would be 👍

Austin Phillips3.... if you want to keep talking trash like that, come down to Seattle and I'll shove my sword right up your ass! 🙂 (Don't worry, I'll wrap it in foam so it doesn't hurt too much... much! 🙂 ) 😠
