metal, then I have a great band for you to check out, Twilightning. I don't know why no one I know hasn't heard of them but they are fantastic, great instrumentalists and a great singer as well. Its another Finnish band, except they are less of the epic metal **** like Hammerfall, Epica, and Rhapsody are.

Their myspace

Their myspace has Gone to the Wall and At the Forge, which are both good.

Check out:
Masked Ball Dalliance
Delirium Veil
Diamonds of Mankind
Gone to the Wall
At the Forge
Victim of Deceit

You wont be disappointed.

I have their second album. While good, it's not strong enough that I choose to listen to it over and over. I'm surprised you haven't heard of them. They were hyped a ton after their first album, so that's why I got the 2nd when it came out.

Finland though. Legends coming out of it! Stratovarius, Sonata Arctica, Nightwish, etc. That keyboard sound...

I dont know which is their second album but Bedlam and Delirium Veil are the best ones.

Yeah, that's their first album and their 2006 EP. Plague-House puppet show is the second album

Wind-up Toy from Plague-House Puppet Show is quite fun, it's not one that gets mentioned much
