I did listen to the ones you pointed me toward in this chapter a bit more deciding whether I should add them to my "eventually download list". A few of them made the list.

Any you particularly liked?

I can always make a list of good songs for you.

For now, check out Scar Symmetry - Deus Ex Machina

Hmm, not sure I care for that so much.

My favorites of the ones you mentioned were probably Kamelot, Angtoria and System of a Down.

I wouldn't mind more suggestions.

Same, I'm afraid.

And check out more Epica, Phil. It's Kamelot with Simone Simons. XD

I'd suggest:

Megadeth (Specifically Holy Wars, Hangar 18, My Last Words and Rust in Peace Polaris.)

Alien Ant Farm (Specifically Smooth Criminal and Wish.)

CKY (Specifically 96 Quite Bitter Beings)

To name 3. XD

Epica's alright, but a lot of it seems almost too operatic for my tastes. Opera singing is alright with me, but unless I'm actually at the opera, I prefer it in smaller doses.

I liked Megadeth actually. I'm kind of surprised. Not bad at all readily. Hangar 18 was particularly badass. Added to the list.

Alien Ant Farm is kind of strange for me. I liked the Smooth Criminal cover a bit, but elsewhere I'm less sure. The music is quite competent, but I'm not sure I like this guy's voice. It lacks character and actually sounds rather like that of a number of generic popular shitty alt rock bands' lead singers (with that slight whine to it). Not sure it's quite there for me.

CKY was alright, but lacked much of any real impact with me. I listened to them first for some reason and already forgot most everything about them.
