I know you are a big fan of Rhapsody(although I am not) We seem to have the same opinions on alot of bands, particularly Edguy(Tobias musical genius? I think so ) Anyhoo.. Have you ever heard of a band called Skylark ; for that matter, has anyone else? I think these guys rock! The production isn't as stellar as Rhapsody, but they can play their asses off. I guess this band is an aqquired taste. But, something about lead singers with really thick accents, is cool to me. Anyways check these guys out. I reccomend all who havent heard them, check these guys out!!!! They are like Rhapsody but not as orchestrated, but have many similar elements, although some people might not like the lead singer(or so I've read) Another band highly recommended is "Projecto" these guys hail from Italy as well. I think they sound like a mixture of Edguy, Helloween, and Kiss(lead singer sounds a little like Paul Stanley) Anyways these are just some suggestions of bands you might not have heard of or might like.
