Erm... ...Do I see perhaps, getting into the argumentative mood too much? The comments I see here are not of an open-minded true metalhead, they are of a one-sided, argumentative, conflict-seeking, poseur. Yes, he does need to do some explaining it seems.

Yes, sorry about that
Look when those comments were made though?
When I used to despise Rhapsody. But yeah I now listen to them quite a bit.
But yeah that argument was all because of - you guessed it - DragonForce haters, spamming comment boxes, and loads of them gave comparisons to Rhapsody, so I decided to look at Rhapsody to see if they were as good. Of course I couldn't just say to the haters: 'Oh, you win, yeah Rhapsody are much better' because that would make them feel they are right about DragonForce.
So yeah. Sorry team

And yeah you are completely right about that WinterSon.
But I now think that Rhapsody should be more discussed on the forums?
Nobody ever mentions them yet they are a great symphonic power metal band

Rhapsody of Fire is an excellent band, with one major problem, at least for me.
for some odd reason, after i hear one of their songs a few times, i really couldnt care to hear it again (with the exception of Eternal Glory, New Saga Begins, Warrior of Ice, their cover of Power of Thy Sword, and a handful of other songs) - i don't know why this is, i own 2 real RoF CD's and 2 digital albums....but i dunno - just nothing keeps drawing me back to most of their music
but overall they're a good band - and a lot of people like them more than i ever did
gotta say though, Luca Turilli's Prophet of the Last Eclipse was(is) my favorite from his metal offspring, better than any Rhapsody (of Fire) album i've heard
also, jacko - 5 months isnt exactly a long time, BUT - getting into eArguments is a natural thing in today's eSociety - so you guys don't push him too much ^_^
oh; and yes, someone might find arguments by me in Sabaton videos (mostly historical and philosophical arguments) that are pretty recent and some attacks against rap videos and attacks on Gamma Ray haters and old arguments about how much better Nightwish was with Tarja and well, i argue a lot >.>

A fair judgment there Vggamegod.
But 5 months? Man, time has gone slow. I remember posting all that and it seems like a year ago.
But maybe we don't talk about Rhapsody as much as the likes of DragonForce, Iron Maiden and Blind Guardian because they are SYMPHONIC power metal?
I don't know, but again I apologize for this, and yes, I was an idiot back then

yeah, i kinda wish we talked about power metal other than Dragonforce and Blind Guardian, theyre great bands, but lol, theyre not the only ones all the folk metal threads are cool....and the Iron Maiden worship is fine, but i wanna talk about power metal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Come on, Gamma Ray, Nightwish, Iron Savior, Dreamtale, Sabaton, Heavenly, Insania, Stormwarrior, Masterplan, and so many more power bands that are just as good as DF and BG

We can all make mistakes, nothing to worry about!
Rhapsody Of Fire is my favourite Power Metal band!
