or, I've also thought of "New Wave of Pop Metal".

I have also to admit, it's not only meant as fun. Smile

If Symphonic Metal is the same as New Wave of Hair Metal, then I'm a Twisted Sister! Tongue

LOLLOL

Anyway, if you should see something similar to Aesma Daeva's Frigid Beauty,  I'd love to hear about it - even according to yourself it's not very possible. Embarrassed

Exactly! Aesma Daeva's music is just as unique as their name and that's part of what makes them so great, unlike Twisted Sister, whose music just grates. Tongue

Right, but nevertherless we look forward to the days when Aesma Daeva becomes much more influential than they apparently have been. Smile

APOCALYPTICA    From Finland they are coming. Putting the Neo into Classical comes the four horsemen of the apocalypse with the four loudest cellos you're ever likely to hear on the entire planet. And just when you think they're Finnish with their heavily leaded dose of apocalyptic Metal, you realise they're just getting warmed up. Cellos will never sound quite the same again. And so, finally, it's Cell-0 from them and goodbye from me. Be prepared for a nuclear blast! Ouch

ARVEN       Guten tag! Arven are a sonorous sextet from Frankfurt, Germany, who have the unique distinction of a five-girl line-up with one male drummer. Das ist gut, Ja! It must be fun back at the hotel after a concert tour. Smile
