Blind Guardian is a band I tend to forget about for long periods of time. Then someone reminds me of them, so I put them on, and I'm blown back every time.

I'm listening to a lot of black viking metal these days, recently got into Kampfar, the song starts to take off at1:40, nice chorus.

Malpractice have something interesting going on here: catchy pop-punk choruses striding alongside the proggier side of heavy metal. Shouldn't work...and yet it does.

Ah yes, this is great!

Bard's Song is one of my favorite tracks ever.. Much goosebumps.

I think it's funny that a non-thrash band, and a band that was probably just doing it for a lark, recorded one of the best thrash metal songs of all time.

Really can't stand much Megadeth, but the first part of this song is so unbelievably good!

Why in all of hell is this track 1 on the album

Been listening to Animals as Leaders and Scale the Summit a lot lately.

I remember Tom Warrior mentioning that they were basically trolling the idiot contingent of their fans.
