Artist: Dragon Guardian
Album: Dragonvarius
Year: 2009
Genre: Power/symphonic metal

Ladies and gentlemen, do you know what this is? It's ridiculous. The band is named Dragon Guardian (I guess they like Blind Guardian and Dragonforce?) and the album is named Dragonvarius (they must like Stratovarius too!). Those names aren't cheesy, they're just plain bad. And look at the album cover. It looks as if it's taken from some tacky, anime-styled online role-playing game, whose nerdy players make up this band's entire fanbase, I imagine. I'm not going to go in-depth about the music: it's average euro-styled power metal with Japanese lyrics and obnoxious spoken passages. The only reason I listened to this was to bash the band's name in my journal. Dragon Guardian is a ****ty name.
