War Of Epics: Results

[mckindog]

Two OK and close songs in the other matchup. I prefer prog-metal to power metal generally, so you'd think Symphony X would be my pick, but in this case Halloween seems more like a cohesive song. Some cool guitar parts put it over the top.

How about Dream Theater playing Free Bird?

Incidentally "take the time" is exactly what Skynyrd was thinking back in the day.

 

[Night Prowler]

Extended for one more day (break that tie!)

 

[Forostar]

Rather then risk being accused of corruption I always could withdraw my vote...

It literally (seriously, my stomach just twisted) pains me to vote against anything with Dio's voice, but Damien is just so fucking good. Also, I think Gates of Babylon is a better Rainbow epic.

Also Rush, because Rush is awesome and Guns 'N' Roses is terrible.

 

[The Flash]

Rainbow & Rush, easily. I like Estranged, but Xanadu is superior.

 

[SinisterMinisterX]

Stargazer, Estranged

@Night Prowler is deliberately trying to cause another Balkan conflict with the way he's pairing the songs.

 

[Cornfed Hick]

Rainbow & Rush, easily. I like Estranged, but Xanadu is superior.

If this forum had a "nodding vigorously" smilie, I'd paste it here.

A glorious day for power metal!

Nah, SMX made the draw

 

[Night Prowler]

Stargazer will most likely win the whole thing, and no matter how much I like Damien or Iced Earth, situation's pretty clear in this match...

...while the second match is really easy. Estranged is amazing, Xanadu is massively overrated.

 

[Perun]

Since you mad brutes voted Sol Invictus out, I will do everything within my capabilities to ensure that the result of this game will be the least satisfactory for the greatest number of people.

 

[Unknown One]

Estranged Stargazer

Let's turn that around.
