- Entwine: Fatal Design (2006)
- Mob Rules: Among The Gods (2004)
- Sabaton: Primo Victoria (2005)

p.s.
I'm a longtime fan of speed/power/melodic metal, ever since I first heard Walls Of Jericho by Helloween (like 15 years ago or something)

Kick ass albums indeed. I've not heard the others.


Hey is that new Entwine any good? I almost bought that the other day. I dig gone and Dieversity a lot.

Purchased one of my all time favorite albums yesterday off Ebay, with my trusty new Paypal account.

Savatage - Poets & Madmen.. Japanese special addition with 2 additional tracks, which I think is just Jesus Saves and Handful of Rain.

Im so very excited, my first time recieving an album in the mail. Does anyone know how long it generally takes? Its coming from Taiwan, I know that much.. Anyways, I want it right now, right fucking now!!

Tawain to Scotland?? Hmmm...around 2 weeks, I'd say, at least. You couldn't find that CD from anyone closer? Be wary of eBay, bud. It's an artform.

Actually, I live in Nova Scotia, Canada. Nova Scotia is latin for New Scotland. Yeah, I know to be wary of it and I admit, I kinda just pounced on the first one I saw, excitement got the best of me. Since I ordered it though, Ive been checking out The End Records.. They have a couple albums I want for a good price, Eucharist's Mirrorworlds is only 6 bucks. Are there any other decent sites of this kind that accept Paypal?

Sentinel Steel, but I think you have to spend like $90 in order to get a shipment to Canada. I don't know why, it's has to do with customs and shit, but definitely check them out. It may have changed.

Iron Maiden - Dance Of Death.

Believe it or not, this is actually my first real Maiden record (I also have a little compilation record I made two and a half years ago of Maiden songs from Number Of The Beast up to and including Seventh Son...). It's an excellent album except that almost every song sounds the same. So it's hard to really distinguish between them and pick out a clear favorite. Though I think right now The Rainmaker is my favorite.

It's Iron Maiden's worst, imo.

Enter Deception-Cellador
Wintersun-Wintersun

Cellador is incredible...Leaving All Behind is pretty much my favorite song right now. I haven't listened to Wintersun yet (I bought it after seeing them mentioned so many times in the "Better than CoB musicianship thread) but hopefully it'll be good.

Wintersun is excellent, but for some off reason people praise it a bit too much, I think.

I'm listening to Wintersun right now...definitely one of the most "different" bands I've ever heard. They remind me of Children of Bodom at parts, although at others they are completely different. The musicianship is really amazing, and I'm starting to get into the singer's scream...he's actually one of the better screamers I've heard.

You've got a long road ahead of you, my man! :)
