    What (In your opinion) songs are just perfect?

    Some off the top of my head: Judas Priest- Beyond the Realms of Death Judas Priest- Painkiller Black Sabbath- Heaven & Hell (really the whole H&H album is practically perfect, but the title track is my favorite) Rainbow- Stargazer / Light in the Black Dio- All the Fools Sailed Away Rush-...

    A new Blind Guardian release

    I've had a week to digest this album. It's a fantastic release! Their best since "A Night at the Opera." At this stage in their careers, I think it's the best we can expect from Blind Guardian- fans longing for another "Nightfall in Middle Earth" or "Imaginations from the Other Side" should...

    Great albums nobody talks about

    Good call! It's Owens' best vocal performance, bar none!

    Great albums nobody talks about

    The Borealis and the Galloglass are both in my regular rotation! Great topic, and there are so many criminally overlooked bands/albums; we could go on forever! Here are a few that come to mind: Deadly Sin- "Sunborn" Masquerade- "Surface of Pain" Last Tribe- "The Uncrowned" Eternal Flight-...

    Paul Stanley's long lost Folgers commercial...

    It's like they said, "Hey, let's get the guy from KISS for our coffee commercial, ... but the commercial won't be about KISS, nor will it be about coffee!"

    Thank You!

    First timer here. Happy to have contributed in some small way to this selling out as quickly as it did. Can't wait to meet you all (not to mention see some kick-ass bands!) next year!

    3 bands you have never seen that you would like to see at PPUSA

    My knowledge of Japanese metal is "Crazy Nights," and that's it. Based on this alone, I think maybe, just maybe, Loudness is more well known.

    SANCTUARY Completes Work On 'The Year The Sun Died'...

    1) I agree with the notion that Nevermore was running on fumes during their last album, but I thought their prior album, "This Godless Endeavor," was outstanding. To each his own. 2) if you're looking to explore Sanctuary's older material, I would start with "Into the Mirror Black," then...

    3 bands you have never seen that you would like to see at PPUSA

    Love Blaze's solo stuff, so you wouldn't get any complaints from me. However, I get the sense a Blaze Bayley set wouldn't go over so well.

    ProgPower USA XVI Ticket link:

    Ticket purchased. I'm officially going to my first ProgPower. Now for the longest eleven month wait I've ever had to endure. But I have no doubt it'll be worth it! BTW, thank you so much for posting the Ticketmaster link- that really made it easy!

    This Classic is 19 years old today!

    When I first listened to this album, I was horrified; this was a far cry from the Maiden I'd gotten used to. However, as time went by, the album really grew on me, to the point where I actually like it a lot. I won't go so far as to say it's a classic, but it's definitely a solid release...

    Vocalist RONNY MUNROE Quits METAL CHURCH; Band Vows To Continue

    While I don't necessarily disagree with what you're saying, I don't understand why there has to be a point? Musicians make music. As far as Ronny Munroe goes, I happen to think he's a criminally underrated vocalist, and I actually like the Munroe era Metal Church. "A Light in the Dark" is...

    3 bands you have never seen that you would like to see at PPUSA

    It's really hard narrowing this down to three! My ultimate fantasy would be Bruce Dickinson solo (can you say "Chemical Wedding" in its entirety?), but that doesn't seem feasible, probably for a number of reasons. Other bands/artists I'd love to see: -Arch/Matheos- missed my chance to see...

    Dynazty: Renatus is my most played disc of the year

    I second this. I've had this disc for a little over a month, and I CANNOT put it down! Usually I need a little time with an album for it to click with me, but this one floored me from the beginning. By a mile, my favorite release this year so far. Can't wait to see this band next year- thank...
