Okay here's another one, a band from Norway, I don't know what it is about Scandinavia, but they produce some great bands on a consistent basis. This was another example of serendipity, I was looking for something totally different and this band came up, so I checked them out and liked them immediately.
Really this is more like NIN, except instead of Trent Reznor being the band, it's Thomas Christian Hansen who's the brains and only founding member left. He is the guitarist, vocalist and main writer so his fingerprints are all over Gaia Epicus. He is a big fan of Gamma Ray, who I just posted a couple of days ago, and they have a similar power/heavy metal, hard rock sound. Only four albums to their credit so far, and the newest CD "Damnation" is doing very well for the band.
Here's Fire & Ice from the first album released in 2003 "Satrap".
Great cover art as usual.
