Nice choice!  And yes, I Am is probably one of their best songs, but of course, they are all great!    Nice to finally meet someone who loves Theocracy!

This was my favourite band list about 3 years ago and I must say it has
evolved quite a lot since then. I mean seriously, Nattfog? At the time
Nattfog had only released one demo with 3 songs and the only reason I
liked it was because it was trve kvlt and it was cool to listen to music
like that. Let's see how the list has evolved over the years and
compare them. This won't be easy...



1. Orphaned Land

Every album they've released is perfect or near perfect. The first Two
albums had a rather similair sound but the Two later albums differed
quite a lot and had a lot of variety which is a good thing, I love
variety. Every time I listen to them I always discover something that I
hadn't noticed before which is why they still hold up after I've
listened to every song a Million times.



2. Mirrorthrone

Merc pretty much covered it up. go back to page Six to see what he had to say.



3. Iron Maiden


Are you going to Kill me if I say that I think that the later albums are
better than the older ones? Don't get me wrong, I love Seventh Son and
Somewhere in Time but I think that Brave New World, Dance of Death and A
Matter of Life and Death are pure masterpieces. Iron maiden has
developed a more mature sound that fills me with joy and Sadness
whenever I listen to it. The earlier albums didn't really do that to me,
it just seems like it's great music that you headbang to and sing along
while the later stuff is something that you listen to and pay attention.
You may now send me your death threats



4. Amaseffer

They've only released one album so Far so it might not be fair to add
them on the list but that one album is without a doubt one of the best
albums I've eve heard. This band tells the story about the Exodus by
creating music that almost belongs to an epic movie (not the shitty
scary movie like movie called "epic movie" but a real epic movie of
course). All you need to do when you listen to them is to close your
eyes and let the music take you away. Listen to the entire album for the
best experience.



5. Apotheosis

Only one full-lenght release here too but damn is it good! This band is a
quite similair to Mirrirthrone because of the large variety of
instruments, samples and effects. The only album released differs a lot
between songs and even in the songs. The intro is mainly ambient with
several different string instruments which evolves into an epic
orchestra which then opens up the next song that has a more symphonic
Black Metal with neo-classical influence sound. The album album also
features Thrash Metal, Progressive Metal, god-knows-what-metal etc. It's
varied so if you like variety, like I do, check it out but if you don't
like too many effects and samples then don't check it out.



6. Blind Guardian

This band has been with me for a long time and still holds up very well.
I like every era from this band: the Speed Metal era, the Power Metal
era, the overproduced Power Metal era and the latest album as well.
Hansi's Voice is amazing, the backing vocals are amazing, the drumming is
amazing the guitar work is amazing but the bass is sadly not amazing
since I can't hear it... As a bassist I'm slightly offended...



7. VNV Nation

I've mentioned this band a lot and I think I'm too lazy to wright about them again... actually I think I'm lazy to write about any band right now, sorry.



8. 1000 Funerals

9. Hibria

10. Agalloch



There are several bands that I've heard that I probably would add to
this list if I heard more of those bands. Bands like The axis of
perdition, Unexpect, Lost Horizon, Ceremonial Castings, Devil Doll etc
are all potential entries to the list but unfortunately I havn't yet
heard enough of those bands to judge that yet.
