| Darker then a lot of european stuff, some hints of thrash. Should be better known. Listen. |

| I like their music as they bring some interesting ideas to the power metal genre, but the vocals kill them for me. I'm just not a fan of Lars singing at all. I had the same problem with what I heard of the Fools Game project with him on it. |

| Long ago, three or four of their albums—reissues with bonus tracks—were $5 at CD Baby. Very good band. _________________ "Happy people have no stories" —Therapy? Shock Totem | The Eyesore Times | Getcha Rocks Off   |

| I have seen Manticora play live and they are great! I have one of their CDs, too. 9.5/10 |

| I checked out the 'Black Circus' albums some and I wanted them to be better than they were..songwriting wasn't quiteee there....but they may have better stuff. A more 'original' sound won't necessarily equal goodness...  Rock solid writing needs to be there.. |

| The first Black Circus was good but the second seemed to be the throwaway songs from the first. Check out, Darkness With Tales To Tell, first. |

| I have 8 Deadly Sins and Hyperion. They are both great musically, very original and I dont think the vocals ruin it at all even if his voice isn't my favorite. |

| Great band. They have a new one coming out at the beginning of October. Hyperion is probably my favorite of the ones that I have heard. |
