The Metal Project: 2002

  I don't really remember much about 2002. There was rather a lot of Nu-Metal about, to the point where it was getting boring.  By contrast,  Finnish Symphonic Metal band Nightwish started getting a lot more attention in the UK,  as were an increasing number of European Power Metal outfits. 
 I also picked up an EP by a slightly quirky British band called The Darkness who seemed to have promise...
 Anyway, on with the music. Quite a short post this time around but I hope you find something you like. 

  Starting with an outfit who just love a good singalong anthem.

Dream Evil - Heavy Metal in The Night (Sweden)

Honour to: musiclord197

I couldn't do this project without all those fans hunting down
obscure stuff and putting it on Youtube.
 Like this slice of US old-school, for instance.

Jack The Ripper - Metal Man (USA)

Honour to: crgreyf

Sticking with the Trad Metal style albeit with a Spanish flavour.

Wurdalak - La Senda Del Metal (Spain)

(Not to be confused with the Norwegian Black Metal outfit Wurdulak. 
And contrary to what you'd expect from the thumbnail, it's a bloke singing.)

Honour to: Caoz Anatema

  I suspect this post is going to be mostly Trad/Power stuff.

Cryonic Temple - Metal Brothers (Sweden)

Honour to: xXZoNaMeTaLXx
Listen to the lyrics on this one. 
A song that includes the words "Vengeance" and  "Agony"  really shouldn't sound this happy.
Screw it, it's so damn catchy I don't care.

Freedom call - Metal Invasion (Germany)

Honour to: dorgobar

And finally  , a band that really like Manowar.
Really, really like Manowar.

Majesty - Metal To The Metalheads (Germany)

 Honour to: LadyGalneryus

That's it for now. ee you next time for more of the same.
