I was listening to Metal on the radio one day, and I didn't recognize it and I liked it. Am I a metal musique fan?
Gothic metal: - Bloodflowerz - Amatris - Atargatis - Flowing Tears - Krypteria - Midnattsol - The Vision Bleak - Xandria - Eisheilig - Coronatus Symphonic metal: - Haggard - Leaves' Eyes - Weena - Soulslide - Wintermond Power metal: - Blind Guardian - Primal Fear - Helang?r - Equilibrium - Avantasia Heavy metal: - Doro Pesch Folk metal: - Lyriel Some good metal bands from Germany out of my library. I'd say my favorite metal bands come out of Finland though.
I think Tobais Sammet it's the current face of power metal in Germany therefore Edguy or Avantasia it's something I listen to.
Germans have a long history of metal quality, I am afraid most modern metals may not be available in the market, as these are project specific, and very expensive too. Keep trying, may be you could get a piece for your treasure of metals.
