Hey everyone! I had a discussion with Mika and John about me not having time to listen all the songs and videos you guys are sending to the video thread. The main reasons are that I don't have so much time anymore for music and that I usually browse this forum on the phone, so it doesn't make sense to listen to the songs by phone's speaker. One of you guys had an idea for me of having a monthly moment when I just sit down and go through all the new stuff there is. However I have lost the last 4 years since I haven't been living alone anymore, so the video thread doesn't serve as well as it could. That is why I thought you could help me! Send me here videos and songs I really should have already listened so far and I will every month go through them and also give some comments of some of them. You get a chance to share some awesome music (maybe second time already ) and I spare time and get to know some good stuff! So let's start and please post some nice songs and videos here from the years 2015 and 2019!

Very Helloweenish...the band is from Germany and the year is 2015. From Oulu... Saxon: And one of my new fave bands from Sweden is Manimal. In the first video (2015) there is some over the top -vocals. A little bit ear friendlier...

The stuff from Oulu is very close to my basic taste of music.

My newest finds are these two ands: Imperial Age from Russia/England. Monumental like Therion with a taste of Manowar here and there. Crystal Eyes from Sweden (where else?). In a review the guy wrote something like "I tell you two bandnames: Running Wild and ACCEPT."

Typical Swiss hard rock in the vein of Steve Lee era Gotthard.

Okey, while working from home I have a chance to listen to some of the songs today, don't have time to watch the videos though, but music is what matters, not the video. Brothers of Metal: I have been listening to their first album now almost two times while running, because I read here everywhere that at least Mika and John were really into their first album. That album is quite promising, not sure though yet is it my cup of tea. It might be though one of the few bands where mixing man and woman singing works quite well! This song you posted sounded quite different than the songs from the first album, but I do like it! Vykyng: Well, it does sound like Vykyng! Nice and easy song, and John you can really play the drums! Vhaldemar: Wow, this was an interesting one! The singer's voice is something I just need to get used to, but this band I need to listen more!

In the first video (2015) there is some over the top -vocals. A little bit ear friendlier... Messenger: It sounds nice, there is nothing wrong in the song, but after two listenings it is just ok, doesn't hit me much, at least not now. Stargazery: I really like this song! It is the best from the Oulu songs, especially the chorus is really catchy! I remember liking this band's songs a lot around 10 years ago, should listen to them more! Ghost Machinery: I know this band as well, but this doesn't work for me much, don't know why, maybe I should give it another try. Burning Point: Nice to hear Nitte's voice again! I was interested a lot about Burning Point when I heard the news that Nitte is back in action. I assume she wasn't singer for long? That songs is a solid one, a strong 3+ in 0-5 scale. Saxon: Is this song from Thunderbolt? Or what was the name of the last album? It is quite good one this song, but as John said I have also lost a bit of interest on them. This one is also to the side of "the epic Saxon" which I am not a big fan of, I like more the faster and "more traditional" Saxon. Manimal: Well, the singer isn't that horrible as I thought after Mika's comments and the photo on the video. And I thought the music to be a lot different than it was. The first song is nice, somehow reminds me of Painkiller. The second song is really nice, and the singer sounds more like Ralf Scheepers in this, nice! I like it.

In a review the guy wrote something like "I tell you two bandnames: Running Wild and ACCEPT." Well, that Imperial Age sounded like Tomcat's music! Is there many vocalists in it, it felt like there were 5 different singer in the album. It wasn't bad, but not something I would like to listen every day, in little dozes it works. The other clip was not available anymore. Which of their songs you recommended?
