Dungeon (Aussie powermetal)

Anyone a fan of or aware of this band from Australia?

I picked up a very cheap copy from Hastings and I'm glad I did.

At times speedy, at times more just traditional, but always well performed Powermetal with great vocals. It's more on the "Euro" side of things, but with good crunch and power.

Hell yeah awesome band fronted by Lord Tim but now no more. Lord is the new Dungeon. The early Dungeons are hard to find!

Yep, I got all of 'em.

I don't like anything else Lord Tim has done nearly as much as his work with Dungeon.

Not too bad, but never grabbed me enough to want to get something..

I got some of their stuff. Good band, especially on the last 2 albums!

Very good power metal.
"Rise to Power" being my favorite.

Dungeon is an EXCELLENT band! Very much recommeded!

I have One Step Beyond (Japan version). I haven't listened to it in a while, but I remember it being a good CD. I'm gonna have to break it out and give it a spin.

The only one I have is "Rise to Power" and it definitely shreds!

Forgot how great they were until spinning it again today!

Not a fan. But nice guys though I see the bass player on and off when I'm going to local gigs in the city they are not around anymore the singer is in a new band called Lord which is a mixture of old and new school power metal. IMO slightly overrated not on the same level of greatness as Mortal Sin or Hobbs Angel of Death but still better than darker Half

They kick ass! 9.5/10

Scott, check out BLACK STEEL, an other great band from Australia that sound a lot like DUNGEON or PEGAZUS.

ah, Pegazus..they had some good stuff too...more in the vein of old Priest mixed with AC/DC and Maiden...very inconsistent though, and they haven't put out something in forever.

My favorite Aussie band is Vanishing Point, but that's more melodic rock/AOR crossed with power metal....

Will do! Love my Aussie power metal! I am friends with Johnny Stoj of Pegazus, BTW, and this was years before I ever heard of FB!
