Iced Earth? Anyone else here heard of them

[Narse]

Just heard some of the bands work, nice stuff. Has an old school metal sound. I like it

 

[MistaTastyCakes]

Check out In Flames.. ya might like them if you like Iced Earth, even though In Flames is a bit heavier. Kinda retro though

Used to listen to these guys in high school, they sound like a harder Maiden almost. :beer:

Iron Maiden is what they remind me of :beer:

What songs?

Dark Saga is a great song to blast with the windows down.

I got into them because ELI recommended them many times stemming from MetallicA threads.

I have about a 16-song CD mix of theirs... strange though... they had a few vocalists (for good reason) so it gets confusing.

 

[Alienwho]

Iced Earth - My Own Savior

 

[MistaTastyCakes]

What songs?

Try In Flames - Gyroscope

 

[Narse]

Glad to see some metal fans are still around

Ok I will listen to that if I can find it

 

[Pastore]

It sounds like old school metal, because it is old school metal.

 

[Aceshigh]

I like their album "Tribute to the Gods". It's awesome to hear them play some of the classics.

true true, you got me

Also that In flames song is good also

 

[rh71]

Burning Times and Depths of Hell too.

 

[Krakerjak]

Excellent Band.
They are popular in Europe but never caught on here.

 

[Triumph]

Old school metal fan here! Metal is alive and well, and it has nothing to do with "nu-metal."

Who else loves Maiden?

In Flames kicks ass. If you like those 2 bands you should get some Bling Guardian. I love their stuff. Personally I think their Imaginations From the Other Side LP is the best one they have.

And if you end up liking Blind Guardian, check out Demons & Wizards also.

It wasn't, yours was the fourth time it was mentioned.

 

[Nemesis77]

Check out Children of Bodom

 

[SWScorch]

Try these In Flames songs:

Jester Script Transfigured
Colony
Bullet Ride
Episode 666
Clayman
Cloud Connected

I second the Blind Guardian suggestion too. BG and Iced Earth did a few songs together; my favorite being "Exacalibur."

Maiden = Best band ever, always will be.

Considdering this is a forum where over half of the populations probably thinks Linkin Park, Britney, or Eminem is the best thing since sliced bread, I'd say that's rather impressive.
