seriously,
you poll includes power metal bands options only . Is this thread an opportunity to make a mock about power metal bands only ?
I hope that it is not the case ...
I won't vote, because the power metal stuff is based on an imaginary imagery and I think that bands like Manowar for example, or bands singing about dunjons and dragons bring a part of dream to the listener
Too many metal bands (I won't named) take things too seriously

band bashing or not ?
Let me remind you something :
10-Don't go bashing bands (or any other subject for that matter) you don't like unless you really have something of worth to say. You don't like a band - fine, but there's no need to go stick your nose into every thread dedicated to this band. The same goes to starting band-bashing threads.
thank you

No actually I am not band bashing.. I think their image is really goofy..I am just poking fun. The music is actually phenomenal.. and these guys are doing what they love so I respect that. I just always thought the lyrics were silly. thats all. And yes I did only name power metal bands cause thats what the topic was..again not to insult but to poke fun. We have a power metal band here where Im from, they do all the fantasy stuff but they dont take themselves seriously. They are very talented, and I wouldnt bash them as musicians. What they do is a joke(to them)..and Im not sure a lot of power metal bands see their image that way. Whatever..it wasnt intended to insult anyone. I love and respect all these bands and the music is not the subject of the poll.

I disagree with you Geoff... he's not "bashing" a particular band.
He's asking a relative question to a particular generic label.
If you ask me power metal lyrics would be seen as practically Camembert if the music wasn't even more cheesy.

I like Rhapsody. Although the lyrics of them and all power metal bands are annoying, I think they're talented musicians and I sorta like their sound.
