Off the album that not only got me into Black Metal, but bands ranging from In Flames,Dark Tranquility, Helloween to Within Temptation, The Gathering and a number of other bands:
 

The game was already amazing, but having this track playing over one of the most awesome, WTF scenes, elevates it even more, methinks. Catchy as true sailor's syphilis, too.
 

So, did you know that Gregg Alexander - that bloke behind New Radicals (You Get What You Give) or for example Texas' Inner Smile - helped write this? I mean, it's so obvious once you notice that, but I never would have guessed otherwise.
 
Insania - My Revelation

(Swedish top notch metal band been around 20 years! Strongly influenced by Maiden)

Thanks for sharing. :ok: Great song, especially the melodies and chorus. This song is very Maiden-ish, yes, but the style in the other songs from the album or from their early albums is a big Helloween and Stratovarius vibe. The vocalist sounds like Kiske (*2001 album). Classic power metal. I will listen to all of their albums. I like what I have heard so far a lot.
Helloween - Kill It
It's not groundbreaking, but it's flawless in my opinion.
The verses are really atypical for the band, the chorus too. The pre-chorus is great. One of their most brutal songs. The music is really strong.
