Only if I find the lyrics were insulting or idiotic I would give up listening, which is not the case here. 

Good to hear, you find Melissa lyrics okay, while I can tell that King Diamond is a High Priest in some satanic sect today so, it was pretty serious business for him.

I would say "I'm not hearing it myself". The signature sound of zeuhl for me is heavy jazz fusion with a lot of driving fuzz bass and a lot of minimalist repetition. Opinions vary Smile

I've been thinking of "the manic expression", I seem to hear in both.
And by the way, it might interest you that Melissa is considered to be an important forerunner or maybe even one of Prog Metal pioneers.

I would've voted for one of those old school British bands too, until I noticed Dream Theater was also in the poll. Smile

It's multi-vote, and all of those are streets ahead of DT.

If you would try to bring your old school British headbanging further, you could try to listen to Melissa - that might be a good idea with your fondness of RIO/Avant/Zeuhl, if it would be all right with some satanic verses, and maybe depending on how much of Iron Maiden you've been listening to.

Strangely enough, I first began to like Metal being quite an old tad, inspired by a friend, Prog Metal afficionado - even I had my beginnings as a teenager with the early Metal, and continued a little bit with Powerslave.
