Now -- what are you listening to? V2

Still continuing on 'The Sons of Northern Darkness', as I was too tired to get past the first song last night.

I know some forums always archive threads at 500 pages but those are probably the same sites whose mods will have a go at you if you post in a topic that hasn't been touched for a few days. And yes that does happen on other sites. I myself got a strict telling off on Metal Hammer's forum once for replying to a topic that was only a few days old. Mind you, I also got ridiculed on said forum for saying Iced Earth was a power metal band and this was by Dom Lawson himself.

As a Christian I object to the first thread being locked at page 666. I insist it's re-opened immediately until it gets to at least 667 

No apology required Thatcher. I've just always thought that the original lock was a pointless exercise.

The vocalist rubbed me a bit wrong too. But I´m usually not that fond of "modern" growling vocalists. They are either too "core" influenced (which I usually hate with a passion), or they are completely unintelligibly brutal, which is usually not my kind of thing either.
