Symphony X is an amazing band! They make harmonious, ferocious, epic, fantastical music. I think they did some stuff for Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, but anyway I just thought I'd give them a mention as they are a great band that makes very well-crafted, epic musical pieces that everyone should listen to. Good day-dreaming music...

Here are some of their songs:

Awakenings
King of Terrors
Communion and the Oracle
Of Sins and Shadows
The Accolade

...You are so right...

They're a great band, but they're far from Progressive metal.


They're very much power metal.

Um... no, actually; they're quite Progressive.

Symphony X is a damn fine band. I have most of their albums, and I listen to them all fairly regularly. Great stuff.

Meh, apparently I was mistaken, though to me they sound very power metal-ish *shrugs*



Oh and Raga, please don't post in l33t.

SYMPHONY X is a pillar for progressive metal

The guitar is awsome !!!! Very difficult tempos
