Time to slow things down again and relax with some nice metal ballads, before we charge on into the final stretch...
Kick off with a band called Iron Savior --- could be they're Christian Metal, could be they're not --- they're not --- and a track taken from their second album, “Unification”. This is “Forevermore”.
Iced Earth aren't the kind of band you usually associate with ballads, but as we've learned with this section everyone likes the odd break from the headbanging and the shredding. From the album “The dark saga” here's “I died for you”.
And anything Metallica can do, Megadeth can too! Here's “Blood of heroes”, from “Youthanasia”.
Band I've never heard before, called Twilight Guardians, from one of the countries that is fast becoming my favourite both for metal and prog, Finland. This is from their debut album, released in 2000 and titled “Tales of the brave”. Nice little song called “Snowfall”.
And we end with Ratt (remember them?) with “Giving yourself away” from the album “Detonator”.
