So as the title posts i am getting together an Epic battle-metal style band for a concept album (based on maybe the dragonlance "Dragons" series, or "lord of chaos" by Robert Jordan, my personal fav.). The music will be in the direction of "Nightfall on middle earth" by Blind Guardian, real epic but still metal. Mostly guitar/vocal driven. Thankfully i already have two singers for this, a trained opera singer, (from my Tool tribute band) and an old school metal singer, ala rob halford, bruce dickenson. And i will play drums, i have a great bass player, (damon from "Boarcorpse" my deathmetal band) and just need a guitarist to write melody lines, and leads like crazy. I mean serious time to show off and be super dramatic. It will all be in the studio so if you wanna do 4 part lead harmonies, it will be possable. Because thats definately what the vocals are doin. These kids can really sing, and this whole project could be SO much fun. Anyone?

this guy Shadow from the band Suicide Dream would be perfect for this... unfortunately he fell off the face of the Earth... err you might actually find him on Middle Earth though.

interested but busy as all hell.

busy's ok. It honestly would be like: I give out outline to vocalists for lyrical idea's per movement, they would give me lengths of each movement, and feel. and either vocals, me, or guitar would write root melodies, everyone would over lap ala recording bythemselves, or I would be happy to do all of that at my place so ideas could be talked about. Not a huge commitment immediately, but i think with enough professionalism (is that a word) it could actually happen. And not just be a really fun idea that never gets to fruition. But too busy is too busy. oh well.

don't know man - I love WoT too (was actually going to do a project based off of that as well) and I'm in a fulltime band and have 3 projects going on at the moment. good luck

Powermetal is wicked gay. What are you, a queer?

P.S. - what do you mean "solos"?

Like, wheedly wheedly sweepy deepy stuff? Or melodic diddlies like on Nightfall?

i may possibly be interested in doing something like this...

Oh man, if you ever want a guest solo or guest lead or anything guitar related...fucking PM the shit out of me because I'd love LOVE to have my name on something as glorious as a power metal project.

Solos: there is the rare occasion that a "wheedly wheedly sweepy deepy" could sound good. Although what i mean is the lead lines that cover nightfall. Literally over every part, with the exception of some of the folkie parts.

I honestly think i will start writting some of the riffs for the first movement this week. I played guitar for a long time before taking on drums, so i can do it, while i dont really want to, it will assure the project moves quicker.

you're right. one of the best guitarists ever born that threw his talent away. he had a kid with a cave troll and does nothing with music now. i haven't seen Shady Bob in years.

Is this the same Shadow that was in Perpetual Winter?
