The Pope was today knocked down at the start of Christmas mass by a woman who hopped over the barriers. The woman was said to be, "Mentally unstable."

Which is probably why she went unnoticed among a crowd of Christians.

I don't appreciate "metal" and I probably should. As a teenager I loved blues and also Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin etc. The "metal" I've heard just seems to be an imitation of that and nothing sounds original. Am I just being an "Old Fart"? Is there anything worth listening to that I haven't heard better before?

If you're interested, I'd start with Power Metal, preferably from Scandinavia. It's melodic, really accessible, and really emotional. They write some lovely ballads as well. Check out Nightwish, Sonata Arctica, Kamelot, Rhapsody, Helloween, and Blind Guardian to start with, those are the essentials.

Ballads:
Sonata Arctica - Replica


Nightwish - Eva


Blind Guardian - The Bard's Song


Heavy stuff:
Kamelot - Forever


Sonata Arctica - Full Moon


Nightwish - Amaranth


Enjoy!
