Excalion
There was no Topic for them and they definately deserve one so... Excalion is a young Finnish band playing Melodic / Power Metal. Their first album Primal Exhale was just some demos and such re-recorded but the second album Waterlines was pure metal masterpiece. They left out the power metal cliches...

Re: Chorus when playing live...
Not for a band like strato.
For Hammerfall it is necessary to have backing vocals live as they are a big part of many songs on records and live.
Take Last Man Standing for example.
That song lives through backing vocals.
Hammerfall has some sick backing vocal "choirs" on the records

Divine Wings of Tragedy (song) starts to open to me.
I was able to listen it till the end.
I'm still listening to those songs on the list.
I saw paradise lost for 10 € and Divine Wings of Tragedy for 8€
I would have bought either one Iif I hadn't bought 4 other albums in last week.

I'm not saying that this is a bad thing per se. I don't really know how Jani writes and composes his songs because AFAIK Tony Kakko wrote and composed most of the stuff in Sonata Arctica. I'm also looking forward to that album. Tony always said that Jani had so huge influence on the final versions ...

Elias has the skill.
Jani wasn't so special most Sonata fans think he was.
Yet I look forward to Cains Offering and Kotipelto ain't the only reason for that.
