Symphonic/melodic Metal

Post by Psi Wavefunction » Tue Oct 19, 2010 11:28 am

Hooked on Nightwish (and Tarot – Marco = :drool: ) and Sonata Arctica at the moment. Also Rammstein, but they're symphonic metal, though still more melodic than some of the other stuff. Anyway, wanted recommendations on other fairly melodic metal groups/songs – preferably not obsessively screaming, etc. Like folk influences too.

Some awesome things I'm addicted to:














Other recommendations?

Same here. Some time ago.

It's funny how they pronounce Elven Path, though. Elven Bath :hehe:

I wouldn't listen to a band called "Nightwish" FFS.

I don't care how they pronounce it. They sound like the type of people who play D&D and go to Stonehedge to hug the stones.
