I will now launch another wave of recommend me threads in good time before expanding my collection.

This time around we have Stormwarrior.
Just do you best to introduce me to the band by shooting me with songs, info and recommendations (and of course all kinds of opinnions)

Early Helloween-clones with a Kai Hansen clone as singer. Not a bad band though. I'd recommend you their latest Album "Heading Northe".

I agree with Ragehead.

Anything more?

The other 2 Albums aren't bad either. They really don't have a bad album. But I like Heading Northe best.

How about the live album?

Dunno. Didn't listen to that. But from what I've been told it is good.

How about the EP Heavy Metal Fire?
Is it worth getting?

I have never heard about this band. I'm really looking forward it.

They aren't just Helloween/Ramma Gay clones, unless I'm mistaken they actually toured with Kai Hansen (and his band) for awhile.

It's solid German speed/power metal with viking themes (I think the term 'viking metal' is a bit silly.) I'd recommend it especially if you're not as big into flowery keyboard power metal.

The title track on Heading Northe, and the song immediately following it (Metal Legacy) are probably my favorite cuts.

Yeah, they toured with Kai Hansen and Kai Hansen played a few old Helloween songs with them. But they're still early Helloween clones with a Hansen clone as singer.
