Kamelot, a gothic metal scandinavian band...

Hey Cameloteans,

I'd like you to discover some bardic troup, scandinavian or so it seems, who took the name Kamelot at the end of the XXth Century. According to my researches, you can forget their albums before 'The Fourth Legacy', for it is simply awful. I have warned you...
But the rest is just epic, romantic and thematic enough for it to be enjoyable. Later albums speak less of Arthurian Lore than earlier albums but the music is better. I shall let you hear by yourself.

They are clearly what our ancestors called "kitchy" and somehow they do the same thing over and over, but they constitute a very atmospheric and graphic soundtrack

Want a sample?

I will keep my researches on our ancestors and how they used or misused the name of Camelot.

You beat me to it!

Note that my favorite album is 'Karma'. It's just great for the style.

I quite liked the song "Somewhere in time". That introduced me to Epica.

EDIT: Somewhere in Time, The Haunting, you know what I mean.

If you to like that, i think you'll love this Sonata Arctica Really cool

A little cliché is ok, too cliché and I die.
