Category: Metal Tuesday

Surprisingly, I didn’t select this one because it’s one of the best arena rock songs in the known universe. No, it’s because of this little piece of fan fiction.

You ever run across a CD (kids, ask your parents), pick it up, and go “Man, I loved this band when they first came out.” Then proceed to play the ever-loving hell out of it? Yeah, I may have stumbled back on Gravity Kills after a long hiatus.

Avantasia is a solid performer in my book, and I’ve really been digging on this one.

I love Amaranthe. I have been known to put their songs on repeat. This is the current ear worm of theirs.

I love the two and a half installments of Patrick Rothfuss’s “Kingkiller Chronicles.” This is Nightwish’s tribute.

Yes, it’s another sporadic entry into Metal Tuesday. If you’re easily offended by satanic metal, what the hell are you doing on this blog?

I’m using the tried and true selection methodology of whatever song has been running constantly in my head for the past week or so.

Iron Saviour (or Savior) is unusual in the power metal genre because instead of fantasy, the band uses science fiction for its themes.

This week’s comes from an album composed as a compliment to the old MMO “City of Heroes.” Man, I miss that game.
