scroll up to my post with all the vids and listen to the second one, Closure in Moscow. Aussies. met them twice, their lead guitarist, Manny, took me backstage and introduced me to A Day to Remember.

Really like the bottom one, the instrumental portion reminds me a lot of scar symmetry. Really digging the actual background music, not sure I like the emo crossover in the vocals.

They sound like Boys Like Girls meets progressive metal, haha.

Ten After Two is a newer band. they just released that album through one of my favorite labels, Rise Records. I try to keep up to date with who Rise is signing, they tend to be good in this styling.

I'll have to listen to some more, they're not terrible. Like I said, I like the background stuff.

good stuff man. Secret and Whisper is similar without any screaming.

t's nice to have something other than the same three chords that nickelback, three doors down, and hinder play over and over again.

Did you like any of those three that I put links for?

yeah I liked DragonForce already, and the third one...Fairyland, kicks ass.

I think I have a good handle on your style now.

how about this?

I have yours as well. Always good to expand my musical horizons.

you may actually dig Chiodos right out of the gates.

Naw, again, it's the vocals, haha. But I did like Ten after Two a lot. I'll go perusing iTunes and see if I find more of them I like.

dang really? i thought you would like those vocals, oh well.

if you want to find more music like Ten After Two, go to http://www.riserecords.com

This one's by nightwish. Like most power metal, the intro's usually suck so you have to let it develop.

haha, dude these are the guys who opened for Megadeath and DT when I saw them live. music was super solid their stage presence was terrible. they had a huge stage to work with but they all stood real close to one another and never moved.

This will be the last one I post. It's a Troy Football Highlight Video I made back in 2009 when good ole Levi Brown was our QB. It's got two power metal songs in it:

The bands I like in this genre are:
Silverstein
Senses Fail
A Day to Remember

Also I really like Saosin but I've never listen to Circa Survive (didn't the lead singer use to be with Saosin?). Anyways I'm always told if i liked Saosin I would like Circa Survive so I guess I'll give them a listen...

This is one of my favorites from Silverstein (love the breakdown at 1:50!!!):

have a listen to some of the videos i posted in this thread tyler, you may find more bands you like.
