Upcoming Metal Albums  

Thanks, but I've got 'em all already. I'd definitely say they're in my top 6 with Metallica, Children of Bodom, Iron Maiden, Pantera, and Megadeth. (I can't narrow it down to a top 5 because I love all those bands so much, lol).

My favorite album is Divine Wings of Tragedy. It's the one I listen to most often, but they're all great. Out of the Ashes and Church of the Machine (from Twilight in Olympus) are my 2 favorite songs.

I'm gonna go see Symphony X in may for the 1st time.I'm pretty excited about it.

Man, I bet that'll be great! I really need to see them live, too. All I've seen are a few videos floating around on the internet, and it looks like they're one of those bands that sounds almost exactly like the album on stage.

Cool, I didn't know there was going to be one. Thanks for the info and response.

Oh yeah, I completely forgot to mention the new Megadeth album, United Abominations, that's coming out in the next couple months. I bet it'll be good.

I admit it for the first time anywhere, but yes, I was disappointed with Symphony X's Paradise Lost and just couldn't understand why the rest of the world was so much liking it. I think an important reason for my dislike were the lyrics. I'm not really digging in all this "dark" theme Michael Romeo is so fond of. There were songs like Accolade in the past. This last record is beyond my limit. It's not suggesting nice things, and maybe it has to do with my mood also, but that's not what I need spiritually. I can't "let go" and listen when the lyrics go something like "it only takes one bite". Not for me.

It's June 17th I believe actually, so just around two weeks from now.
