They're only power, progressive and symphonic.
I wouldn't call them speed, technical, thrash or heavy.
Although yeah, they are one of my favorite bands.
HO HO HOPE you become a Newgrounds Supporter this year!

Power and Speed are pretty much the same.
Not calling them technical is fucking ridiculous... have you actually ever listened to Romeo's guitar work? If thats not technical then bands who are have got their work cut out.
And yadda, yadda, there is probably Thrash/Heavy influences in there too.

I'm not an expert or anything, so correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't power kind of imply more..."singing" vocals, whereas most other genres of metal are generally less audible.

For bands like Blind Guardian I agree but bands like Helloween I disagree.

Of course.
I don't really consider them technical except for a few songs in twilight in Olympus.

There are thrash and heavy influences in nearly all metal.

Power implies cheese. Thats all really. It's not that they sing more, they go higher so it cuts through more than a really low growl.

Well Helloween have a more Heavy, Maiden-esque influence. So it's still relevant as you listed Heavy too :P.
But Symphony X do all that.

Surely Technical is basically just a translation of "really hard to play". I think Romeo manages that.

I saw Kataklysm, Vader, and Psycroptic as part of the Summer Slaughter Tour back in July. It was awesome
At 10/22/08 07:28 PM, PiercedFromWithin wrote: Awesome,thanks guys.What bands have you fellers gone and seen lately?
I saw the following concerts these past few months:
Nightwish + Sonata arctica on August 30th.
Opeth + High on Fire on September 19th.
Helloween + Gamma Ray on September 20th
Iced Earth + Saviors + Into Eternity on October 15th.
Amon Amarth among various other bands on October 18th.
Future concerts I plan on going to:
Symphony X in November
Dragonforce and Turisas in November just for giggles and to see how bad DF are live personally. (Plus I sort of like the latter band.)
In Flames in December.
Rotting Christ in January.
Also i'm planning on making a concert review club later this week, you should totally all join when it is made.

Surprisingly, it wasn't as good as I hoped.
I have to be honest, I enjoyed High on fire more than Opeth live.
Oh well, mabye it was because I was dead tired and it was 2 in the morning....or perhaps the band was having an off day, or both.
Oh well.
So far the best concert i've ever went to was the Helloween and Gamma ray one, what about you guys?

Who agrees and why?
Tool is great, but not metal.

I enjoy High on Fire more than Opeth period.
So i went out after my exam to go cd shopping, i was about to pick up Meshuggah's obZen, but i saw AC/DC's new album so i got that instead. Forgive me.
obZen was overpriced as a motherfucker, im not paying $37 for it. Also i know another place i can get it cheaper.
Oh and metal news, i need to re-find the myspace but this chick i know, her brother went to school with guys from this pretty cool Death Metal band, so ill be sure to put that through here.

Either Dream Theater/Symphony X, the second time I saw Opeth or GWAR.

In terms of Metal, the only concert i've been to so far, The Black Crusade (Machine Head, Arch Enemy, Trivium).
Otherwise i can't pick between Foo Fighters or Black Crusade, they were both fucking epic pants.

To those of you with long hair: Do you ever wrap a towel around your head when you've washed it, like girls do.
I enjoy it. I've had one around my head for about two hours and it feels great :D.

This signature makes use of various clichés and/or 'emotional' lyrics/quotes, hopefully it makes me appear deep.

I've yet to check out the later works of Carcass, but despite my lack of enthusiasm towards them, I still appreciate the fact that they came from Liverpool. :)
Oh, and new laptop, yay.
This just in: Pyramaze's Immortal is an album epic beyond comprehension.
