I think Mark is a phenomenal singer, but I actually think I like Mike Ledesma a little better, and I think he fits right in with the band. I haven't seen them in person, however, so I'm just going on the videos I've seen.

They've been fortunate to have had two fantastic singers.

They could stand to get a new lead guitarist, though...

Hi Pete!

Listening to this at the moment.

Lame video aside, this song is sooo great!

Cinderella - Still Climbing

Iron Maiden - Brave New World

 

Excellent album

 

Their last great album IMO and in my top 5 Maiden's of all time.

For some reason some of the diehards didn't care for the big progressive style of this album but for me almost every song is amazing and memorable.

It took me a few listens before I "got it". I love that album, but it didn't grab me at first.

Ten - Stormwarning

First time through it, actually. I'm really liking this!

I went with Outcast. That album smokes!

Bang Tango - Psycho Cafe

I think both are good, too, and as-is. Why mess with it?

Sharon Osbourne isn't his manager, is she?

Jesse Strange - S/T

Night Ranger - Seven

Night Ranger - Hole In The Sun

Honeymoon Suite - The Big Prize

Tora Tora - Wild America

Triumph - Thunder Seven

Just curious. In addition to metal and hard rock, I love progressive rock, and one niche I love in particular is Italian prog from the 70's.

 

Any fans?

 

 

yes, love the IT Prog!!! Banco, Le Orme, PFM, Locanda, Cherry Fibem Reale Acad. JET, Nova, I can keep going!!!! hahah

My favorite Italian prog band is Goblin, the guys responsible for those great film scores (mosttly for Dario Argento's horror epics, and some other movies). They also recorded two splendid original studio albums, three if you count the one-off reunion without original keyboardist Claudio Simonetti...and THAT CD rocks, too. The pre-Goblin band Cherry Five also released one classic album, in '75.

 

I also enjoy Nuova Era, Apoteosi, Le Orme, Pandora, some Banco, etc. I just don't like them as much as Goblin.

 

 

Cool! I forgot about this thread somehow...

 

 

I love all bands mentioned. I think my favorite bands would be Il Balletto Di Bronzo, Banco, Le Orme, and Locanda Delle Fate

House Of Lords - S/T

Firehouse - Hold Your Fire

Looking forward to it, but I am hoping it will be better than 'Cartesian', which was only average (when compared to the previous 2 especially) for me.

This. "Cartesian Dreams" was ok, but it sucks compared to the previous two, IMO. Those get regular spins around here.

2011 has been a stellar year so far, IMO.

For me the ones I've played the most are:

FarCry - Optimism

Whitesnake - Forevermore

Warrant - Rockaholic

Mr. Big - What If

Black Stone Cherry - Between The Devil And The Deep Blue Sea

And I'm currently loving Neal Morse's new one.

Southgang - Tainted Angel

Accept - Eat The Heat

The Outfield have always struck a nice chord with me. Great songs played well. What's not to like?

FarCry - Optimism

His teeth are a nice compliment to the beard...

Glad to see Distorted Wonderland mentioned. Those guys really kick ass!

Can't believe no one mentioned Queen,which had 3 singers:Roger Taylor,Brian May and of course Freddie Mercury.

That's the first band I thought of. It's amazing that they used three singers, considering they had Freddie, who is God-like.

You guys rock, Shawn!
