I saw them as a pre-show for Nightwish, and I had never heard of them, but the performance was great, Yannis’s singing was amazing, all the songs were catchy as hell and I was singing along even during this first hearing. And the synchronised guitar movements are fun as hell. I really really like their song “Beast In Black” (a lot of songs of their album Berserker ar based on a manga/anime called Berserk), so please react to that song please :-) They were super nice (you could talk with them after the concert) and people were buying loads of records and CDs from them, so they made a big impression!

Fun fact: the band name "Beast in Black" and the many themes and subjects in the songs were inspired by the dark fantasy manga "Berserk"! And yes, this band's sound is very "cheesy" sounding in the best way possible. Very fun, energetic, and the melodies will get stuck in your head all day. Like many have mentioned, the self titled song "Beast in Black", and "Die by the Blade" are some good listens! I'd also reccomend "Zodd the Immortal" which is more aggressive and I think really shows what Yannis is capable of.

@@Minotaur-ey2lg What era of Priest because Priest Painkiller Era and onward is 100% proto-power metal and 100% heavier than BiB's heaviest songs. Their 70's~early 80's era stuff was more NWOBHM and generally lighter than stuff that Maiden put out but around the late 80s and onwards Priest began putting heavy emphasis on a heavier sound. The entire Angel of Retribution album is extremely heavy compared to their older songs. BiB sounds more like Hammerfall, Battle Beast (the founders previous band), Powerwulf, etc.

They were the openers of the last Nightwish concert I went to, great introduction to get the crowd hyped and a very cool combination with Nightwish. Afterwards, the singer of this band covered Ghost Love Score from Nightwish, fantastically.

Was just going to post the same thing. Also, a live version of that, from Lankafest Puolanka is great. Though it's not professional quality, but performance excellent!

I had this song in my head for about 2 months straight when I first heard it. Super catchy!

If you wanna hear how hard these guys go, check out their titular track "Beast in black." It's definitely a change of pace from this one.

If i would named their style would be "disco metal". From Hell with Love is one of my favorite songs by them. Greetings from Brazil. 🤘🇧🇷

This was the first song I listened to when I first found them and totally thought it was a female voice. One of the guitarists left Battle Beast and founded Beast In Black and is the "beast" as he does some very interesting growls/screams. As Battle Beast is female fronted i thought it was female as well until i got to other songs. Also Yannis's cover of Ghost Love Score is great. Most of their songs have a 80's vibe with the synths but it makes nearly all their songs just soooo catchy.

The interiors were filmed in Raasepori castle. When I visited that way with some friends, it was closed for bridge maintenance, but the ruin was still impressive from the outside (funny thinking how the hill it's on was an island). The most memorable thing was the jackdaws. Every hole and crevice had a pair of blue eyes just staring out of the darkness.

I'm not much of a genre gatekeeper/nerd, but just personally I think of "symphonic metal" not really a genre, since there are so many genres within metal that use symphonic metal.

All I would say is Symphonic Metal alone is not a genre, but you can definitely say Kamelot is Symphonic Power Metal, which would be correct in explaining their sound and aesthetic.

this is what exactly what Power metal is and its so good!

If you feel like doing more of them: born again, die by the blade, from hell with love, heart of steel are solid choices.
