Anyone else like to see them play?

Saw them supporting Firewind at Rock City in Nottingham and thought they were very good live.

Not sure if they have played HRH before though

I think they played last year. Personally I love them. I can't see the Dragonforce comparison ... they are power metal but much slower.

Vocals are clean though ... so power metal rather than death and keyboards are generally a power metal staple.

Battle metal? If someone could give me a decent definition I would be interested to hear it tbh.

Well, Battle Metal is Turisas to my mind ... as they releeased the album of the same name. Then Metal Hammer jumped on the band wagon and started to throw power metal, folk metal etc into the same pot and Amon Amarth, who are melodic death ... but avoided the less mainstream stuff that alluded to warriors and vikings etc like Bathory and Moonsorrow as it obviously was less palatable for the masses ... I think it's a crap definition tbh ... and it bugs me ... but then I am a miserable old cow! :lol:

Battle Metal is just Viking Metal mostly but for me it just means fun and not boring like allot of bands.
