and NIGHTWISH ARE CLASSICAL. while its true most of there albulms dont actually have a proper orchestra, it forms an integral part of the songs. without the HUGE classical movements in the songs, many of the songs lose there power.
and the new Albulm ONCE uses a whole proper orchestra. and the effect is a amazing. the Song Ghost Love Score, actually blurs the line between Metal and Classical music. its the first song the truely belongs to either genre.
i,ve heard Blind Guardian. they r ok, but can get boring after a while. definitly prefer the epicness of NightWish.
and whats wrong with KeyBoards? they rule!
