I'm an eagle flying free ~
So, given all that metal spam on the activity page, I thought it was time for a separate thread for that.
All things metal go here, just pray to Ronnie James Dio that the iron crisis doesn't catch up with us in here
I'll make the start with a song that I saw live performed tonight.
Straight to Hell by RAGE. Live performance from their 20th anniversary in Bochum/Germany and also the official music video for the song, featuring super cheesy greenscreens from the movie Der Schuh des Manitu (the by far most successful German movie ever produced and a very satirical [spaghetti-] western). Man, I do love me some cheese
Either way, enjoy!

While copying over music from my mp3 player to the nephew’s PC (Rammstein [don’t worry, only the child-appropriate songs], Alestorm, RAGE and some other stuff) he actually stopped me midway and asked if I had any Judas Priest for him.

Lyrics
Minningin svíður, ég man þetta vel,
missinn sem skóp hjá mér reiðina.
Skaðræðislýður sem skreið yfir mel,
skarinn minn fríður var dreginn um Hel.
Óðni, sem bíður, nú ætt mína fel.
Víst var ég kvalinn og visinn og sljór,
vitstola hljóp upp á heiðina.
Hálf- var ég galinn er hefnda ég sór.
Horfði á dalinn minn, kvaddi og fór,
lamaður, kalinn en leiddur af Þór.
Há var heiðin,
hungur og myrkur,
en áfram arkaði.
Löng var leiðin,
lítill minn styrkur,
er spor mín markaði.
Skepnan skorin.
Skaðræðisópin,
þá Hel loks hörfaði.
Víst á vorin
veinin og hrópin
berast frá vörðu við Baldurs haug.
Aldrei mun skilja þann skaða sem hlaust,
skelfingarópin og neyðina.
Níðings- með vilja þú bein þeirra braust,
börnin mín ylja mér ekki í haust.
Sorgir vil hylja, á Tý legg mitt traust.
Ásgarður teymdi mig aftur til þín,
örmagna glóp lýsti leiðina.
Varginn mig dreymdi, þá válegu sýn
vandlega geymdi hvar sól aldrei skín.
Lævísin streymdi frá Loka til mín.
Brennheitt blóðið
bunaði niður,
er Vör oss vitjaði.
Hávært hljóðið,
hryglur og kliður
er búkinn brytjaði.
Líkin lengi
lágu við steininn.
Þá goðin grófu oss,
dána drengi,
dysjuðu beinin.
Og ég þekktist þrekið
þegar ég hélt af stað.
Við hef ég tryggðum tekið,
traustur ég ríð í hlað.
Þú komst særður og sár,
sundrað var allt þrekið.
Undir heiðninnar hönd
hefur fundið stað.
Hamar Þórs og hans þrár
Þrymur gat ei tekið.
Þessi blóðslegnu bönd
bera skalt í hlað.
Víkingur á vorkvöldi
vaskur kallar Óðin.
Hallar- opnast hliðin þá,
herma þetta ljóðin.
Baldur heitir bóndinn
sem bundinn er í ljóðin.
Loks er liðinn
löstur úr minni,
nú birtast brautirnar.
Finn ég friðinn
frelsa mitt sinni.
Nú þagna þrautirnar.
Sláttur slaknar,
Sleipnir mig vekur.
Mér heilsar Heimdallur.
Valhöll vaknar,
við mér hún tekur
og Goðheimur gjörvallur.
Hlaupum móti hetjum með skjöldinn,
halir rísa aftur á kvöldin.
Bölsýnin, ef berst hún um völdin,
burtu skal flæmd.
Höldum því að Heiðrúnarveigum,
hornin fyllum, lyftum og teygum.
Sæhrímni til átu við eigum,
engin trog tæmd.
Velkominn vertu.
Velkominn víkingur.
Velkominn víga valdur.
Velkominn vin.
Hetja hefur beinin sín borið,
Baldur horfir þó út í vorið.
Látlaust fas og létt er hans sporið.
Lést hann með sæmd.

some Oz newish metal - Parkway Drive - they're down with the kids, apparently...
This thread needs more pink!
@Buttercheese don't you feel ashamed to not have tagged me? >:c
(joking)
By the way: In these days I'm listening a lot of '70/'80 things and I'm enjoying a lot Tokyo Blade, even if I like them more when they played NWOBHM, when in later times they converged more to Hair Metal/Hard Rock...
Anyway: I like many of their songs, but this one in particular is a song that gives me lots of emotions so I want you all to tell me what do you think about:

I'm a big fan of symphonic metal right now (which is basically metal with synthesisers and female singers with beautiful voices). Here are some of my favourite songs:
