Everyone should check out Evergrey's "The Inner Circle", which is one of the most intense albums I've ever heard.

I've been blasting the new Ring if Fire album "Lapse of Reality" (it's out in a week or so in Japan). Keep an eye out for that one when it gets released outside of Asia because after half a dozen listens I love it and I'd really been off metal for ages. The Yngwie-isms that Vitalij "every solo must end with a chromatic run" Kuprij was so fond of are very sparse, with more prog excursions and even a few AOR-sounding choruses. The rhythm guitars are more up where they should be, and Virgil Donati makes some killer songwriting contributions.

thanks
