Ive recently heard a couple of their singles on youtube and I really like their distinct Japanese power metal style. They already have several albums out (they seem to release an album every year  ). Any suggestions where I should start ? Is their older stuff worth it?

I've heard Beyond the End of Despair... I loved almost every track on that one. But, that is the only one I've heard. I need to get more, some of the new songs I've heard sound like some of the best power metal I've heard in a looooong time. |

I have all of their CDs and all of them are excellent. Actually, I just noticed all of them are rated 4/5 on MCDR... 
My personal favorite is 'Beyond the end of despair', but just slightly, and the truth is, if you like one of their CDs you'll like them all.
Also check out Concerto Moon, Seven Seas and Versailles, if you haven't already.

Thanks for the recommendation guys. Ill be sure to check out that cd first. A couple of the songs ive listened to were in English however another was in Japanese. I think it was the same lead singer, but he sounded better and more relaxed in his native language. |

I just heard that their lead singer (Yama-B?) has left the band...its a shame I really thought he was a talented vocalist when he was singing in Japanese. |

Yea, he's doing their next tour then leaving appearently. Methinks he'll rejoin after it though, but you never know. |

That is bad news. He is so unique. |

Actually I'd suggest you start with One For All All For One from 2007. It's their most accesible and "modern" album but it has a perfect mix of heavy,fast and slower songs. I think it's better than BtEoD. The last one Reincarnation rules also, although it was hard to get into. If you like power metal on speed pretty much all the way you should check the "classic" Advance To The Fall and their first one The Flag Of Punishment. For me all their albums rate in the high 80's/90's. |
