[QUOTE="Nyaricus, post: 3472918, member: 35678"] My best advice: just listen to a bunch of both. The site [url]www.metal-archives.com[/url] can help you in that direction. Click on "Bands by Genre", and look under the different genre headings - many bands now have MySpace pages which you can listen to their music for free - and the Metal Archive site listed above will likely have any of the abdns MySpace pages linked on thier info page. Just listen and listen and listen and listen and find stuff you like from it. The thing about most symphonic metal is that it is easily mixed with other genres - as [b]Kurashu[/b] says below, there are bands which mix black metal (which you likely wouldn't like based on what you do) and other disparate genres. Hint: Seach under "power/thrash" in the genres on that metal archive site, and then hit ctrl+f on your keyboard. This will open the "Find" window in your brower. Type in "symphonic" and hit next, checking out each new band it highlights along the way. Firefox (and, I suppose, the new version of IE) is brilliant with it's tabbed browsing - just click on the bands, save them all in a folder labeled "Power/Symphonic Metal" and check it as as you wish. The Metal Archives has thousands of bands to check out, so you have plenty of selection. I don't really care for MSI - they are kinda crazy. But *do* check out those bands I've listed. Some great stuff in them. TTTO :) No hard feelings. I agree! I'm going to be ordering their cd when it comes out! cheers, --N P.S. [b]Danny[/b], 'Sleeping Giant' reminds me, in a way, of "Global Warming" by Gojira - which is funny because press in Europe has deemed Gojira the "French Mastodon" lol cheers, --N [/QUOTE]
