Just thought I'd share a little discovery I made today while diddling with youtube.Arch Enemy is a band I got led onto some 2 years ago and have been listening to on and off for a while now. While surfing music videos on the tube I came to the astounding realization that the singer is infact a chick. Needless to say i'm both amazed, scared, and turned on all at the same time. Enjoy the delightful ear raping that is Arch Enemy.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9AcG0glVu4http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMGpcjzb67Qhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OyEu9y6wifs[Edited on March 14, 2009 at 9:02 AM. Reason : turn it up]

Arch Enemy's First 3 and a half albums are incredible. Angela Gossow is the downfall of that band. Doomsday machine is the only semi-decent thing she did.Christopher Amott is still an amazing guitarist though as far as phrasing goes for metal. He's really into 70s rock. Scorpions etc and it comes out in his playing a bitThe two famous solo's. well not the first one.okay another reason she's a bitch. One time i drove like 2 hours to bumfuck north carolina payed $40 to see them and she wouldn't sing because there was smoke in the club.I'm Big Business and i approved this message./]

this band is currently second to Children of Bodom in overratedness.what a shame.I'm Big Business and i approved this message.

That chick scares the shït outta me
3/14/2009 10:43:38 AM
I agree on the children of bodom commentAnother band i've been enjoying whilst on the tube is early Extol. I never thought christian death metal could pwn so hard. Songs like enthralled, inferno, and undeceived are the heat, or should I say were the heat.[Edited on March 14, 2009 at 11:52 AM. Reason : sigh, why do bands have to change so much]
3/14/2009 11:51:34 AM
That first solo has Paul Gilbert written all over it with the delay hes using. Its still kind of a cool trickAnd fuck you all, i still like Children of Bodom. [Edited on March 14, 2009 at 12:00 PM. Reason : ]

Also, she wasn't always the vocalist for them. They had a dude vocalist for their first three albums, although if you just heard of them 2 years ago, you probably didn't hear their early stuff because they weren't good enough to become popular until Angela joined the band and made them a novelty.Edit for BB: I only have Burning Bridges out of their first three albums, but wasn't super-impressed by it. Are their first two albums better?[Edited on March 14, 2009 at 2:57 PM. Reason : ]

I think the only song i've heard with the original vocalist is an iron maiden cover they did for aces high, which is fucking awesome btw.This swedish lass definitely has a set of pipes on her, and god damn check out Amott at 4:33 on Blood Hands http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33U3bGZOcX8shit gives me chills

I like children of bodom and arch enemy (well i liked arch enemy before tyrants i thought they had a chance to com eback). Doesn't mean they aren't overrated. Yeah its definitely something paul gilbert abuses the shit out of.Black Earth > Burning Bridges > Stigmata.Stigmata sucks because Daniel only plays on the first track. Peter Wildoer from Darkane plays drums on the rest, but its just not the same. Bridge of Destiny however is a kick ass fucking track. The first 3 albums are harder to get into because they aren't as catchy. However the songwriting, lyrics and atmosphere is much better. I can't take gossow seriously she said some of the lyrics to Tyrants 'made her cry' when she was writing them. Theres no crying in baseball.Also i like Johann Liiva because it sounds like he has a speech impediment. I'm Big Business and i approved this message.

arch enemy is pretty ok. i'm not a huge fan, but i don't mind them at all.
3/14/2009 11:46:49 PM
Amott definitely puts some feeling into his solos, which is rare in a lot of metal and he isnt about all flashy high speed technical shit.
3/15/2009 1:11:14 AM
where does Dimmu Borgir fit into this thread?
3/15/2009 1:12:35 AM
they're okay, but their live show was not impressive.
3/15/2009 1:12:46 AM
they are super serioul devil worship
