			<title><![CDATA[ Cornerstone - Human Stain ]]></title>
			<link>http://powermetaluniverse54137.yuku.com/topic/862/t/Cornerstone-Human-Stain.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ I recently discovered this band, and bought Human Stain. This album is really good, it is heavy but melodic, and melodic without it being watered down. The band has really good musicianship without sounding pretentious, due to the fact that they seem to care about listenability more than trying to prove something. The album is solid, which means it doesn't have any fillers. They sound slightly similar to Rainbow, which is a good thing imo. If you haven't heard of them or listened to their... ]]></description>

Also it seems to be a slight return to their first album.<br><br>I just finished listening to the album, and my favorite is still The Fire Burns Forever. The next two to round out the top three is Genocide and Titan(which reminds me of Balls To The Wall by Accept to a degree). The title song isn't bad either.

			<description><![CDATA[ Arctica's new album has been floating around the net for some time now, so I decided to check it out.<br><br>The best way to describe Reckoning Night is to think of it as Winterhearts Guild, Part 2. If you liked Winterheart's Guild, chances are, you are probably gonna like Reckoning Night. If you were disappointed by Winterheart's Guild or thought it was mediocre, you will hate Reckoning Night. Unfortunately for me, I fall into the latter category. I've listened to the whole album many times... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Dyecrest - The Way of Pain<br><br>This band won Nuclear Blast's Young Metal Gods competition and got themselves a record deal. Unlike the Pop Idol winners, though, this band is worth your time. They hail from Finland and, quite surprisingly, are NOT a Stratovarius clone! Dyecrest play power/melodic metal with a very modern edge. <br><br>The Way of Pain is some sort of concept album about pain. The album deals with all maners of pain, from physical to emotional. I like most of the songs on... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Well, I have waited for this for what has seemed like an eternity. And yes, I love Rhapsody, so this review may be slightly biased...<br><br>However, what we have here are 5 songs, a preview of Rhapsody's next full album. 3 speed metal tunes in traditional RHAPSODY fashion, (not a whole lot of change here, but nothing sounds recycled). One of those with aggresive vocals (ala, When Demons Awake), two with Christopher Lee narration (very cool) and one with a suprising speed-flute solo... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Ive been an avid Nightwish fan since the day I heard of them, loving every single one of their albums. Oceanborn, Wishmaster, Century Child all masterpieces to me. Even their debut, Angel Falls First, was stellar. After watching the video of the single for their new album, Nemo, I became extremely excited about the prospect of having a new Nightwish album in my hands. Needless to say, my expectations about the new album soared through the skies after hearing the single.<br><br>The question... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ The other day I was browsing at my local cd store, and I was looking through the J section for Judas Priest, and imagine my utter joy and happiness when I found their critically acclaimed &quot;Painkiller&quot; album on the shelf! I snatched this up as quick as I could and bought it, because there was only one left. I popped it in my cd-player at home and needless to say I was absolutely blown away! I really enjoyed the other album that I have from Priest, &quot;British Steel&quot;, but this... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I will start by saying I bought this album on an impulse buy because the cover intrigued me. It has since become one of my favorite albums. <br>Arcturus is a side band composed of members from several popular black metal bands (Mayhem, Ulver) but they play an avant-garde style which employs keyboards, samples and classical instruments to create a unique sound (distantly reminiscent of black metal). The vocals are all clean with the exception of track 6 on which Isahn of the great Emperor... ]]></description>

After listening to it the first time i wasn't really impressed. I talked about the album with a friend who is also a fan and he felt the same way.<br>After listening to it a second time i was even more disappointed. Theres really no inspiration in the album. Some songs are &quot;OK&quot;, because they sound somewhat like other In Flames stuff, but thats... ]]></description>

I had heard a few of Judas Priest's songs on the radio, and watched a few of their videos on tv, but I never realized how awesome these dudes were until I bought one of their cds. I have to say that there is not one song on this cd that I like more than the other, they're all great! I find it a little bit funny, though, that their song &quot;Rapid... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Strato's new album is out and I have fallen in love with it. This album is so much better than Pt.1, and to me, is even better than the previous two albums, Destiny and Infinite. <br><br>The main complain with Pt.1 was the heavy use of orchestration which was a huge departure from what the band used to do, and the sometimes-annoying high vocals. In Pt.2, orchestration has been kept to a minimun, and high vocals are only used in choruses or other parts, and they actually sound good this time.... ]]></description>

The biggest problem I found with this album lies in the choruses: most songs start out pretty damn nicely and are completely ruined by the chorus. And you already know how important choruses are.<br><br>Let me give you my... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ First let me say that I have been a fan of Helloween since the Keepers era and I saw them on the Headbangers Ball tour back in 87 I think it was. They are the inventors of modern power metal. Power metal as we know it would not exits if Helloween had not been sent to us by the gods! <br><br>That being said, on Sunday, October 12, 2003, my wife and I drove from Maryland to New York City to see Helloween as Michael Weikath's guests.
