Primal Fear

Man does this band rock hard! I've had one of their cds (Black Sun) for some time. Just got "Jaws of Death", "Nuclear Fire" and their new dvd. If you like Judas Priest you might want to check out this band.

The more I listen to this band to more I like them. The dvd is awsome. It has two different live sets. One from Wacken Open Air Fest 2001. Another from the Black Sun Tour 2002. Lots of bootleg video from various shows. Also has the Wacken set on audio cd.

German band, right? I've read about them, but never heard them.

Off topic, how did you like Stratovarius?

Yea, Primal Fear is a German band. The singer was in the running to replace Halford in Judas Priest. Actually, sounds more like Halford than Ripper. I've heard a few Priest cover tunes that Primal Fear have done and they are real close to sounding like Judas Priest.

Still trying to get into Stratovarius. I got Elements Pt. 1 and Elements Pt. 2. I'm on my second listening of each. So far Pt.2 is the better of the two. European progressive metal to me sounds a bit "hair bandish" at times to me.

Yeah, I agree on that one. I've only heard the song "I Walk To My Own Song" off of Pt. 2. Good song, badass solo, but the vocals need getting used to.
