You were doing so well and then you post this twaddle.

I completely understand why people don't like him. He has an obnoxiously huge ego and is pretentious as all hell, but I do really enjoy his first two albums.

Hopefully I'll get some cool points back in the thrash thread.

I don't care about ego or pretension. If your music can back it up then that's all that matters. Yngwie is just dull.

I often see people tout Malmsteen like a guitar god but his music is a step away from being Meat Loaf levels of lameness. At least Bat Out of Hell had a songwriter like Jim Steinman at the helm.

I hadn't heard of Yngwie Malmsteen, so thank you. I do enjoy symphonic instrumentals in metal, and anything that runs the vein of Trans-Siberian Orchestra or, say, Theocracy or DragonForce. Any time classical instruments get involved in metal or rock, I'm interested.

^Glad you enjoyed it, Rising Force and Marching Out are his best albums imo if you want to hear more.

Ever heard of Gentle Giant? They're one of my favorite bands, they've got a classical element to their sound:

Sorry, Gentle Giant doesn't do it for me. I'm not usually a fan of the really soft vocal styles that were common in the 1970s. There are a few exceptions, but for the most part, a lot of the more "experimental" stuff from the 1960s and 1970s turns me off, even if it has heavily influenced today's music.
