Been wanting some Therion forever! Walmart sucks and the crappy music selection! Where I live Walmart is the only choice I have. Finally got me a Visa Gift Card and ordered Theli and Gothic Kabbalah off Amazon. Can't flippin wait!
This is the first Therion song I ever heard, thanks to a CMJ magazine freebie... I'm still getting into their stuff little-by-little, but THIS track is one of my ALL TIME favorites!
@ijusttookthatknife All the best bands that produce VERY good music have to be unique. Otherwise they would not be the best. I love Therion - but I love other good symphonic epic metal bands too.
Epic album. Epic band. My fav song from this album is Invocation of Naamah. They lost their sound on Vovin. I love Theli because of Chris's and Piotr's vocals.
Therion were one of the first bands to play this kind of epic music, Presumably the first in Scandinavia to use male and female choirs, strings, pianos, keyboards and so forth
Theli are from 96, many bands like nightwish and epica were not even around at that time
yeah they relasted their shity album angel falls first but you can't really consider that album being the same genre as the stuff they realses these day ..
Anyways, my point were that people seem to believe that Nighwish were the first band playing this kind of music ...
Once was their first really epic and it were realsed 2004
The album Theli by Therion are just as epic if not even more epic than Once and Theli was realsed back in 96
Oceanborn was a Symphonic metal album, released in 98. I don't get why this is such a big deal to you anyway, I don't see anyone claiming Nightwish pioneered the genre, Tuomas Holopainen has even said he was influenced by Therion. But Nightwish did do alot to shape and popularise the genre.
Melodic Death Metal bands Arch Enemy Dark Tranquillity The Duskfall Soilwork Gardenian Norther The Abscent Nightrage Mors Principium Est Imperanon Anterior Dawn Of Tears My band Abrania :P
melodeath is a very wide genre. just listen to amon amarth for instance. they may not be melodic death metal in the gothenburg sense of the word, but they are death metal which is melodic xD
Actually Therion started off as a pure death metal band and progressively moved towards symphonic metal.
Nevertheless, the thing that I find most interesting about them is their lyrics which are inspired from the mythologies of old beliefs. That is because their lyricist is Thomas Karlsson who happens to be the head and founder of Dragon Rouge (magical order oriented towards the left path occultism).
