"Traditional" Heavy Metal...by newer bands?

OCTOBER 31

WINTER'S BANE

Dark at Dawn

Onward

Beyond Fear

Immortal Avenger

How new? (years of origin?)

And by not power I assume you mean not power as in Rhapsody for example, being heavily orchestrated and atmospheric, etc..? cause certainly Primal Fear and a lot of Rob Rock stuff for example is pretty power metal.

PF & RR have elements of Power Metal, but are not full on Rhapsody...you're correct in where I'm drawing the line.

How new? Last 10 years...

I'll name some I think may fit.

Dark at Dawn (recommended songs: Baneful Skies, Darkened Dawn, The Road to Eternity, Don't Pay The Ferryman [cover])

Onward (recommended songs: The Kindness of Strangers, Eye of the Nightmare, Who Saw The Last Star Fall, The Last Sunset)

Skyliner (recommended songs: our whole new demo when it comes out, as it's much better and much more realized than the first, and falls pretty comfortably in this category. Symphony in Black, Vendetta, Aria of the Waters [the first two will appear in rough mix form on the CMR III CD Arttie is putting out)

Very cool!!

But more "Thrash" than I was looking for...bookmarked, though...

Guest

Dark At Dawn - cool...definitely more Traditional...still had a touch of the Blind Guardian vibe...

Onward - Helstar Jr. Heard them before...not bad.

Skyliner - looking forward to the new stuff...

Beyond Fear is a good recommendation IMO.

Sinner
Dream Evil
Grave Digger
(all of these bands are hardly new, but at least currently still putting out music that would fit into this category.)

Strong stuff bro...awesome Power Metal!

If you consider Motorhead as "traditional" then I would check out High On Fire.

Guest

Hey, Phoenix Reign (http://www.phoenixreign.com/home.html) are traditional metal, and I highly recommend them. BTW, my recommendation is not biased by my crush on their singer Theresa. Razz

How can you have a "man crush" on a girl? That would make it a "girl crush"...
