So I'm still listening to the Metallic Dawning 2-disc comp I bought and so far, of the bands I've never heard of, the band Manimal has impressed me the most.
The song on here is "The Life We Lived". Reminds me of Empire-era Queensryche.
Anybody got any input on this band?

OK, I got tired of waiting on you guys and ordered this.
Less than $10 ppd.

One other thing this comp set has confirmed is that I am officially done with Nightwish,
The track "Master, Passion, Greed" is on the first disc and since I already own the album it's on, I almost skipped it. But I decided to let it play and see if my first impressions of Dark Passion Play were misguided.
Nope. I still think this song really, really sucks. Boring proggy, synth parts, Marco howling his head off and the new singer's vocals buried beneath Tuomas' wanky songwriting.
The current incarnation of Nightwish just plain sucks IMO.

Hmmm, not bad. Terrible band name though. When I first saw the thread title I thought you were talking about that awful '80s TV series

Yeah, the name sucks. I'm glad I didn't know the band name when I first heard the song or I might have skipped right over it.

I wonder if this is a different Manimal. I have a CD by a band by this name...I need to find it and pull it out.

I have this album, bought it after a great review in Scream Magazine. But I didn't like it all that much. I need to revisit it though.

I haven't decided, a couple samples sounded good but not a must buy now.
