I proudly fly my geek flag and listen to bands like Blind Guardian, Rage, Demons & Wizards, and Iced Earth. Sometimes its just nice to listen to metal musicians who aren't afraid to admit that metal is the geekiest genre of music to ever come into existence.

Good call on that Bloodbath album through, Resurrection Through Carnage and the follow up Nightmares Made Flesh are probably the best two albums by Bloodbath.

Unfortunately it's the only album, so far, that I have of them. They're still hellishly brilliant, so I'll make an attempt to get 'Nightmares Made Flesh'.

'So You Die'...what a song...

Just a hint of warning, Mikael Åkerfeldt doesn't do vocals on Nightmares Made Flesh, instead Peter Tägtgren provides them. Now it's a pretty even trade as both men are insanely talented, but just be prepared for a different sound in the vocal department.

So then what do you think of Coheed? Or Dragonforce? They seem to be the more popular "geek metal" bands...

Can't stand either of them. Never could get into the vocals of Coheed and Cambria and Dragonforce is just a complete fucking joke, even by geek standards, still their album art can be pretty cool and they're competent musicians.

DragonForce tend to annoy me. They lack diversity - every song requires a damn 92 minute guitar solo...

Only listened to it twicebut the first half sounded really good, band tidy Indie pop album. You had it in your hands?! Not out til the 7th I didn't think. But yeah, worth a download, I have a link if you'd rather save money and give it a listen?

EDIT: They took it down. "The file you are trying to access is temporarily unavailable."
