This week, we’re talking about a guy? What guy? EDGUY of course! Another edition of our “Grave Mistakes: They Shoulda Been Huge!!!” from a band we covered on our last power metal episode late last year. A band that Kevin affectionately calls “Helloween Jr.”, this is another German powerhouse power metal juggernaut that is unique to the genre. They are epic and powerful! A band that is anthemic, dramatic, uplifting, and rallying, with a sense of humor as well!

This episode is rooted in our Should Have Been category. A German band that followed in the footsteps of Helloween, flying the flag of “Power Metal” from the late 90s to 2014. Unfortunately, they were never really recognized to the degree they deserve outside of Europe. We think they SHOULD BE HUGE… and we are ready to fly that banner proudly!

Songs this week include:

1. Edguy - “Heart Of Twilight” from Kingdom Of Madness (1997)
2. Edguy - “Vain Glory Opera” from Vain Glory Opera (1998)
3. Edguy - “Falling Down” from Theatre Of Salvation (1999)
4. Edguy - “Power & Majesty” from The Savage Poetry (2000)
5. Edguy - “Tears Of A Mandrake” from Mandrake (2001)
6. Edguy - “Fallen Angels (Live)” from Burning Down The Opera (2003)
7. Edguy - “Holy Water” from King Of Fools - EP (2004)
