*double postyness*

What do you guys think of After Forever? They're pretty damn good...
I haven't heard of them, but I'm certainly going to check them out. *adds them to my list of other stuff to download*

I'm not sure if this band would count as Symphonica Metal to be honest, but I also discovered a band called "Blackmore's Night" on my travels through the intarwebs. I think you'd like them Imalia.

(Don't watch if you don't want the game ICO spoiled for you!)

That video has one of their songs, "Fires at Midnight"m overlayed onto it. Let me know what you think.

- If any of you have never actually played ICO, I'd advice you to listen to the song without watching the video itself. Then I demand you go out and buy the game. It's one of the most beautiful things you're ever likely to experience.

I'm currently looking for gamers with an interest in the gaming culture and industry outside of Final Fantasy to help with a new, upcoming video game news site. If you think you're interested, please throw a PM my way.

Ehh...best to stay clear of Within Temptation's most recent stuff, to be honest. They've been going, well, dowhill....

Albums to go near:
-Enter (it's their best, IMO)
-Mother Earth
And to a lesser extent, The Dance (It's...alright, but nothing compared to the others.)

Maybe this club should include gothic metal bands... There's a fine line between some gothic metal and some symphonic metal, I've noticed...


Oh and Words, I'll have to look into that band... What's ICO an acronym for, anyway?

Nothing. It's just called ICO.

It was re-released recently along with Shadow of the Colossus. I'd advice you try and track it down. And if you can afford it... get both.

Found some new bands... More gothic rock, but they're so awesome.

Abney Park and Kindred Spirits. The latter is an unsigned band from what I can see so far, but they're pretty damn good. Their website's here
