Best of the best German bands, part 2

[sharatan]

Of course its only my opinion, but this isnt even a contest, HOW THE FUCK IS EDGUY NOT DESTROYING EVERY BAND ON THIS LIST!!! like i said my opinon!

Because the majority of the bands are better than them?

 

 

of course this topic is as funny as the fact that edguy are included in a best of german bands....

Who is "Kingdome Come"?

 

Very pleased to see no votes for Gamma Ray and Blind Guardian. To me, all I hear when I listen to these bands is good intros, decent verses, some nice solos, but awful choruses. The choruses all seem to be so twee - happy, jaunty, shouty affairs that completely ruin the songs for me. First couple of Gamma Ray albums had some nice tracks on them, but then they went all power-metal-twee-chorus-nonsense.

Different strokes for different folks I guess since I love all of those bands.

Blind Guardian started out more as a Helloween ripoff band but have grown into something so much more and of their last 3 discs they all sound different which I appreciate. I prefer the more Power Metal style of Primal Fear but still enjoy the last few discs from then. Gamma Ray I still like and actually prefer with Kai singing but the last disc was just okay but haven't heard the new one yet.
