~Need some information.

[Deskull]

I have been listening to alot of symphonic metal, death metal, etc. I want to know of some more bands like Nightwish, Within Temptations, Epica, After forever.. Just list them...

 

[Deskull]

The bands mostly appeal to me because of their incorporation of different instruments, operatic music if you please.. I am a guitar fan so the metal part of Symphonic Metal is a bonus.

 

[Deskull]

Okay, Thanks I appreciate it.
