Metal Reviews

i like all guardian and all iced earth, but i just dont like guardian as much as everyone else does hmm...i think its becuase im more into thrash. Tim "The Ripprt" Owens is a great singer for priest and for iced earth maybe not as good halfod or barlow but hey he's good.

this is a little off topic but can someone tell me wat the best winters bane song is? iv tried heart of a killer but its nothin amazing, kinda same ol same ol, so wat is a really kick ass song by them, or do they even have any?

Iced Earth any damm day of the week, i dont hate Blind Guardian, but Hansi's voice i dont like that much, that music and stuff is freaking great, plus Iced Earth for me got me into power metal in the first place. Also as much as i love Ripper, please Barlow get your ass back in the band, haha Barlow was the best. Maybe if Iced Earth makes Something Wicked pt II w/ Ripper and it kicks my ass so bad, then i wouldnt have a problem with Ripper.

I don't mind Ripper at all. I prefer Barlow because the best Iced Earth has done was with him. Ripper is the sound they would have had had the first two singers been able to sing. Not bad at all, though. It's just hard to not view him as a Halford clone, you know? Barlow was original for the most part, although he could sound like Paul Stanley on occassion. Still, listen to his wail on their cover of "Number Of The Beast" and tell me that he can't do what Ripper does!!

I wonder what Matt looks like now? Short hair? Preppy dressed college boy? =)

so i guess that no one has ever heard any winters bane? well if u have plz tell me a good song

where are you from?

Yes, but the guy on Night Of The Stormrider could definately sing!!!!!!!!!!! He is my favorite Iced Earth vocalist to date! :twisted: \m/



I have the Heart Of A Killer reissue, and it kicked ass. Though at the moment I only remember Haunted House from the songs... but that was one of the best ones, and it gets me to sing along to it! \m/

y do u ask?

well i thank u and i will try haunted house

wat is that pic for? is it just supposed to be funny 8)

Blind Guradian all the way!

OMG OMG he's on the power forum!!!

*runs away to the extreme forum*

I voted BG, because there are only two bands I wouldn't vote against in a contest with BG, and none of them is IE.
Otherwise, comparison between BG and IE is really pointless, they are way to different to each other to be compared. D&W have more in common, musically, to either IE or BG, but again it's hard to compare established bands with 7 studio albums, lives and many other releases to a band that only put out their second record.

Blind Guardian
Demons & Wizards
old iced earth, i don't hate TGB like others do but it still wasn't good but hey, i bought it for about 4€ (nah man, i stole it :oops: )

The police are on their way. Run, run, for your life, you little thieving fat hobbit you!

I've heard everything by Iced Earth, I like it all, their newest CD the least, But I like BG and D&W waaaay more. For IE Something Wicked is my fav album, I love it, if all of IE albums hit me the way that one did IE would be higher on my list.

dude, i'm not fat, i weigh in about 60 Kg and i'm about 185 cm so i guess i'm healty, but i'm running man i'm running... :twisted:

whats there best album? ill pick one up in hmv soon...
well gimme a top 3 to allow for the shop not having some cds :roll:
thanx!

their oldest(follow the blind and batalions of fear) are a lot more thrashy but very good(my fav of the 2 is battalions...)
Nightfall in Middle-Earth is super great ultra fvcking awesome
but Imaginations from the other side and tales from the twilight world are also very very good.

just buy them all dude! :twisted:

only 1, fingon, theres some other cds i wanna get also.
