Yummy
All this talk of Nightwish for the last several pages has gotten me to try to get into them for like the millionth time. For some reason they just dont do it for me at all, even Tarja just doesnt do anything for me. The only female fronted symphonic metal i can get into is Within Temptation. Their CD The Silent Force is amazing, and I think one of the best CDs in the genre. Theyve gotten a lot "rockier" since then, so I dont listen to their later stuff nearly as much.
Two of my favorites
And i have to throw this in their for some more awesome female fronted Power Metal, it doesnt really get better than Triosphere!
Trogdor, im also sad, i had completely forgotten that Battle Beast got a new singer, i hope shes as awesome as the last chick was!
Ok guys, you NEED to give this one a listen. I'm actually surprised no one has mentioned it yet. One of the best debuts I've ever heard and one of the best albums this year.

Sounds like Barren Earth + Opeth + Ana Kefr, if you can imagine that!
Haha, i was just listening to the entire thing on bandcamp and was going to link it too Im not sure i agree that its the best of the year, but it is really good!
Lul, band i manage went to a good studio, i went with them to make sure things went well. That session was just to get the base down so there is only one guitar, bass and drums. Drums sound sick, cymbals are brilliant and spaced beautifully. Just got the outcome of it in my inbox. DR is insane:
It's a bit too dynamic as of now. I make sure it stays around ten, and ill also make sure to have a completely uncompressed 24/96 version for you guys. We will be back in the studio to finish the song on the 28th. Should have it for you guys to listen to not long after that.
Please!
DR17 is too much so is even DR14 (depends on the type of metal).
DR10-12 seems to be the sweet spot.
Yeah i know, that's why i said i'd make sure is stays around ten. It's sound nice, but most peoples volume knobs don't even go that far.
