Runrig are a unique band. Combining rock music with a more traditional Celtic style, they have always been popular in Scotland, but never really gained wider acceptance. Maybe it's a Celtic thing.

Very catchy, melodic and memorable None

A Weapon Called The Word - Levellers
First album, raw and fiery. Production not brilliant.

Kings Of Damnation: Era 98 - 04 - Black Label Society
Killer guitar riffs, awesome vocals & great tracks A few instrumentals and a lot of variety

Cowboy Bebop: Blue
World Music - Cuban & Latin

Rocket Ride - Edguy
Some average hard rock with a strong pop influence. No song really cuts it.

Theatre Of Salvation - Edguy
Perfects Tobias Sammet's epic power metal style. Some songs fail to stand out, and orchestral elements may be too much for some.

Vain Glory Opera - Edguy
Excellent power metal, with some classics of the genre. Each great song has a mediocre neighbour.

Light Of Day Day Of Darkness - Green Carnation
Ambitious and well-executed concept. Dull and overly repetitive at many points.

Keeper Of The Seven Keys Part I - Helloween
If you like your metal mellow, but still fast, this is for you If you don't like metal, pass

Keeper Of The Seven Keys Part II - Helloween
Several power metal classics, demonstrating variety. Uneven.
