Rhapsody Of Fire / Symphonic Power Metal
Hey everyone. So theres a really nice band called Rhapsody of Fire. This band was led by a musician named Luca Turilli until he left in 2011. He has also formed other bands and projects. He has recently formed Luca Turilli's Rhapsody after leaving Rhapsody of Fire.
Anyway, I think thats the best band in this genre. For those of you who have no idea what this genre sounds like, here's a good song. Luca Turilli - 06 - The Ancient Forest of Elves - YouTube Dont forget to check this song out, even if you dont think you like the genre. You might change your mind after yuo hear it. |

I think they have some cool songs and are fun to listen to, but they are also horribly, awfully, terribly cheesy. It's as cool as being a single man past your 40s, living in your boys room in your mothers basement and still collecting everything from Dungeons & Dragons that exists under the sun.
Now, I like D&D too, but when I meet new people, the first thing I say to them is not "Hi, I'm Tore. I love Dungeons & Dragons". In fact, I keep those cards pretty close to my chest until maybe I hear someone else fess up first. Maybe then I can let people in on my embarassing secret. With Rhapsody, it's almost exactly the same way.

Dude, they made not one, but two concept albums that I know about about a fantasy epic that they invented. That's pretty D&D. Not that that's a bad thing. I love me some cheese metal. I've never listened to as much Rhapsody as I should have, but they've definitely got some good shiznit. Do you listen to other power metal as well? I'm pretty obsessed with Hammerfall and Manowar right now, but I could also go for some Blind Guardian or some Helloween or even some Angra just to name a few.

I've been getting into this band recently
but there are a hundred thousand bands that do the same thing, some better, some not. I personally love Kamelot too, though many/most here will spit on my grave for it! One of their better tracks

Thanks in general for replying guys, I got a few bad comments from people mocking me because I listen to Rhapsody. Last edited by Whiskey; 01-23-2013 at 09:36 PM. |

You obviously don't understand the fine art of using parallels and examples to get points across.
