Been listening to Madtropolis and keep having to remind myself it's not Edguy. I notice a ton of similarities - right down to the vocals. Not a pure clone, but man, they remind me a lot of each other.

Any others into Chinchilla?

I've heard a few Chinchilla tunes here and there, they sound pretty cool (if a bit generic) but I've never checked out any of their CDs.

Ever since I first heard of them, I've wondered what in the world possessed them to name their band after this little fella:

Chinchilla = Edguy (sort of) Chinchilla_picture

Since when do cute furry large eared rodents = METAL?

True, or "Hanker," or "Fairyland".

...Seriously who the hell names a heavy metal band FAIRYland??? Are they asking for it or what??

Custard isn't as bad as Guano Apes.

Anyway, I dig Chinchilla. I still can't find two of there albums. Good band, though.

Fairyland

I love this band!

They're French, so I'm guessing the word fairy just doesn't have a double meaning.

Fairyland in French is Terre Féerique. Not much of an improvement. Smile

I dig Chinchilla. I have Madtropolis and two copies of Madness, in case
anyone in interested. Never noticed the Edguy similarities, but then,
I've not been very impressed with much of the Edguy I've heard.

Chinchillas are totally metal. They ARE the Heavy Metal Hamsters. 🤘

I don't own any Chinchilla (the band or the rodent) but the first time I heard of them I thought the name was stupid. I have a few Edguy cd's which I like ok enough but I think their name is stupid too.

But then Edguy is supposed to be a stupid name. I may need to try and check these guys out seeing as I really like Edguy.

Like them well enough. I've got 2 of their CDs. Pull 'em out every now and then.

I have and enjoy Madtropolis, but I never could get into Edguy.

Which ones? I've seen a few at my local used disc place here. Message me and I'll see if they have them next time I'm in there.

I saw Chinchilla opening for Gun Barrel in June this year. They put out a very good show. I bought Madtropolis there, that is in my opinion a very good one. I had the chance to talk to Tommi Laasch at that evening. He is a really nice and funny guy. I never mentioned any similarities to Edguy.

Chinchilla has a new cd coming out late in the year or early 2009 called The Prophecy, you can hear a new song on their myspace site sounds good!

Just discovering this band on a boring Saturday afternoon. Happy to notice that there is an old topic on Chinchilla!

Not bad but don't stand out too much in the euro power metal world. I do enjoy the song War Machine.
