I *love* Kreator. love love love love Kreator. Enemy of God is next on my purchase list (is it actually out in the states yet?). Violent Revolution is definitely one of their best albums ever. I remember talking to Mille briefly after their set at the Nile/Kreator/Vader/Amon Amarth/Goatwhore...

hey, yeah, watch what you offer. "Paul, I need Therion to play my birthday party, can you get on that?" and yeah, good to see you and Ruthven at the store there; I've run into a few ProgPower people there from time to time (Rakosh comes to mind, and Brett who apparently doesn't post to the...

I'll definitely go March 20th. that's really close to where i'm living right now. Ryan

unrelated to ProgPower, but do you still keep a booth at the Atlanta Record & CD show? I haven't made it out to that in a couple years... Ryan

You know, I'm ok with people having different opinions than me on music. Really i am. Otherwise you have the mindless sheep mentality and you get stuff like Britney Spears, Blink-182, and Limp Bizkit happening. Granted, Stratovarius are better by far than any of those, but still, let people...

Agreed that Angel Dust would not headline, but with all of this slagging on them I'm going to assume that you did NOT attend ProgPower II. Angel Dust stilll reign supreme as the most powerful ProgPower performance I've seen over the 4 years I've been. If the mouth is the main reason they were...

and my god that show was awesome. That drum solo... jesus... Ryan

Telling you man, the song they played off of Operation: Mindcrime II sounded like it would have been right at home on either of those last 2 albums... Ryan

In everyone's defense, the last time Jorn Lande was at ProgPower, he was fronting a supergroup that only had two albums out (which perfectly describes Masterplan now) and they played the exact same spot (4th) that everyone is thinking Masterplan would play this time around if they were to come...

Yes, the part where Glenn said that Fates Warning is almost a zero possibility to play progpower. They've had an open invite ever since it started (iirc) and are never able to commit to the festival dates in anything remotely resembling enough time. Ryan

They played (as in over the stereo, not with their instruments) a song off of Mindcrime II at the end of their set on the recent Mindcrime tour. It was certianly not heavy, and in my opinion not at all good. And if that's the featured track, well, count me right the hell out. Ryan

The black metal fan in me wishes to inform you that if you ever again confuse Dimmu Borgir with IMMORTAL, you're a dead man. Ryan

As for the relevance of Primal Fear over Accept, let's try this exercise: Let's think of a band (without requiring a specific era) that is one of the most popular straightforward German heavy metal bands of their day, and very heavily influenced by Judas Priest. Now, am I talking about...

I dunno, man. Bear in mind that Opeth have toured the U.S. (as a headliner, no less) more than ANY band that has EVER played ProgPower, this year's so far announced lineup included. So i agree with the previous poster. Ryan
