Man, if the first two singles for Alter Bridge's new album were good, this is straight up epic! It starts off kinda soft but then hits you with a massive riff and just gets bigger from there! Great piece of hard rock!
Visions of Atlantis is another symphonic metal band, going for that epic, dramatic sound. While I know there are a lot of bands like this, this song shows some promise, having a bit of a folky vibe and keeping things accessible and melodic.
Northtale once again bringing that classic power metal sound, like it's 1999 all over again! With shades of Stratovarius and Sonata Arctica, this is right up my alley. I really need to around to listening to this album!
It's been a while since we talked about First Signal, but here's a newer one from them and it's another great AOR rocker! They're really going for a big, epic sound on this one, and the chorus is very catchy. Who knew the end of the world would be so uplifting?
More Twilight Force! If you've heard these guys before, you know the drill: epic vocals, fast guitar leads, symphonic swells, and cheesy fantasy lyrics!! Seriously, despite the low-budget vibe of the video, this is fun stuff!
Here's another one from The Defiants! Once again, they have that great 80s, Bryan Adams vibe: big chords while still having that laid-back, summery feel. Just turn it up, put the card in cruise-control, and soak it in!
