I don't get into...power metal.
I've always known that the antichrist would appear friendly....This doesn't get your blood pumping in the least?
Not even this?
Now I know that some people just don't do some genres, in the same way that I don't do Hannah Montana and her built-band ilk, but, I mean, I can't help but wonder at somebody who could dislike the sheer power of power metal.
Perhaps I should let it pass this once; you display such good taste in other bits.
Which brings me to a group on the other end of the spectrum: Vampire Weekend!
Why? Because they make awesome songs like this, and proceed to wander about Paris playing them. So intense.
Primal Fear= ripoff of Iron Maiden.
Vampire Weekend= Delightfully odd.
However, power does nothing for thedownhearted or the poor. Also it does not match the sheer brutality formed in the depths of the deepest oceans.
Sweeping arpeggios and operatic wailing (unless it's bruce dickenson) cause naught but wanton destruction of the source.

. But yeah I guess I'm more for folk-metal, and I have no idea where to start looking (before you ask, Wikipedia is a bitch with me right now ;_;..as is the internet in general <_<)
