I'm not sure why I love Iron Fire as much as I do. None of my friends think they are that special but I just seems to think the cheesiness combined with overly catchy hooks takes me back to a simpler time. Not a single weak album so far and even if they haven't released any "masterpiece material" album they have one of the most even discography with a lot of songs I consider classics in their genre.

1.Iron Fire - To The Grave

2.Iron Fire - Revenge

3.Iron Fire - Voyage Of The Damned

4.Iron Fire - Dawn Of Creation: Twentieth Anniversary

5.Iron Fire - Blade Of Triumph

I'm (sorta) back. *The Finishing Touches* OKAY, so obviously not as much stuff from the last half of the year as the first. Sorry guys, but that first six months nearly killed me. Some stuff as a result will be missing, but major stuff not present is stuff I probably didn't care for. Alrighty then, enough with the "stuff"...

2.Royal Thunder - CVI

3.Akphaezya - Anthology IV: The Tragedy Of Nerak

4.Dissona - Dissona

1.Enslaved - RIITIIR

2.Pharaoh - Bury The Light

***Currently working through suggestions and adding some spacey non-metal things when they cross my mind***
As a lover of all things sci-fi I find metal to be the most accommodating of genres when it comes to themes of space/aliens. This is a list of those albums which use this theme and/or evoke an overall 'spacey' atmosphere and which I find particularly intriguing and enjoyable. No order for now and a work in progress (recommendations most welcome) Last Updated: 9th April 2014

1.Atoma - Skylight

2.Ayreon - The Universal Migrator Part I: The Dream Sequencer

3.Dol Ammad - Star Tales

4.Star One - Space Metal

5.Pagan's Mind - Enigmatic : Calling
