Amon Amarth is a Melodic Viking Death metal band from Sweden that was started in 1992. They kick major ass, and have well written lyrics. Seriously, Dragonforce could learn a thing or two from the songwriter. They have an excellent sound, and they are one of the best heavy metal bands of modern times. This is a band that TRUE metal fans appreciate.

TRUE Metal is the most under appreciated style of music today. There are many good, TRUE, metal bands that exist. However, shit like Slipknot, Korn, System of a Down, and (recent) Cradle of Filth have given this genre a bad name in the mainstream. Thus, all the good bands were forced to remain obscure. This is one thing that seperates the TRUE metalheads, from the posers. The posers are the stupid kids who claim to be metalheads, yet listen to nothing but slipknot while claiming to be "Hardcore". The TRUE metal fans are the ones who appreciate bands that are not well known to the media whores that MTV controls. TRUE metal fans and TRUE metal bands are the 2 last remaining hopes of the genre.
Poser "Hey, man slipknot is the most fuckin' Brutal metal ever!"

Dragonforce is a power metal band that somehow managed to gain a huge fan base and a ton of media attention, even though better bands exist. Dragonforce isn't a terrible band, however their fan base has caused them to become vastly overrated, turning the group into one big fatass moon that is now blocking the better bands from coming into the light. Their vocalist also sounds like he needs to go to a different genre, as his voice doesn't fit metal at all. Dragonforces guitarists are quite talented actually, but they aren't quite as good as the fans make them out to be.
When recording in the studio, Dragonforce manages to achieve an epic feeling to their music, however their live performances are probably among the sloppiest of metal bands today.

Dragonforce fan "Hey dood! Did you see Dragonforce live! Oh man, that was the most kickass thing i've ever seen!!!"
Set "Yeah, if by kickass you mean sloppy riffs and a singer who can't sing or keep up with the music."
Dragonforce fan "Shut up! Dragonforce is the heaviest metal known to man!!"
Set "O rly? Is that what you think? Nice job proving you don't listen to very much metal. GTFO."

A progressive power metal band that pwns. Melancholy Beast and Legend of the Bone Carver are awesome. Plus, they now have Matt Barlow, the greatest vocalist ever.

Blind Guardian is the best modern metal band this side of Iced Earth. Their music kicks major ass and they have consistently turned out quality albums without selling out like many band do. When Hansi Kürsch (The lead singer) and Jon Schaffer (Iced Earth frontman) created the Demons and Wizards albums, it was the most kickass sounding side project ever.
