Really cool and interesting post. I think I enjoy some metal when it's not the screaming kind too! I wonder if you would consider Demon Hunter to be metal? I enjoy a lot of their non-scream songs. Their songs and Red and Skillet are some of my favorite but I’ve always assumed those are more in the Rock than Metal genre.
Someone just sent me Christmas Truce by Sabaton and another one…Winged Hussars I think or some such title…by the same band which is new to me, and I suspect those are songs or at least sounds that you might like. Christmas Truce is in my head on repeat. XD
Is Theocracy metal or just older rock? That's another I've been recommended songs by.
The visuals in that Rhapsody video? Amazing! Thanks for sharing.
Yeah, Skillet was like my introduction to Metal as a genre. They're good. Demon Hunter is definitely firmly within the Heavy Metal genre. Their lead vocalist has an exquisite voice and a lot to say. I just wish he wouldn't scream it so often.
I consider Sabaton and Theocracy are both within the Power Metal subgenre, which relies more on clean or even operatic vocals. If you liked that, you'd definitely enjoy Rhapsody's songs. They do a lot with fantasy themed music combined with classical music in a sort of baroque mixture that tickles my brain in just the right ways.
