1. How did you get into 29?
Kamelot
I think I found them out by friends recommendation in 2003. After that, I was so addicted to them. When they released The Black Halo in 2005, I must have played that 10 times on day of release. One of my favorite Progressive/Power Metal bands for sure.
2. What was the first song you ever heard by 22?
Týr
That would be just like every other Týr fan:
Hail to the Hammer. :P
3. What’s your favorite lyric by 33?
Turisas
From the track:
Cursed be Iron
"Did thy father, or thy mother
Did the eldest of thy brothers
Did the youngest of thy sisters
Did the worst of all thy kindred"
4. What is your favorite album by 49?
Equilibrium
Sagas without a doubt. Mana is one of the most epic songs ever. Just imagine Wintersun made a 16 minute song, it would sound a little like this. :P
5. How many albums by 13 do you own?
Ensiferum
All four:
Ensiferum
Iron
Victory Songs
From Afar
Their EP:
Dragonheads :D
6. What is your favorite song by 50?
Vital Remains
Dechristianize for sure.
Dave Suzuki is awesome.
7. Is there a song by 39 that makes you sad?
Rage
Beauty is a track that can be pretty sad. It's the saddest part of 'Suite Lingua Mortis', to my knowledge. You really need to hear this 21 minute Progressive Metal piece (Suite Lingua Mortis, not Beauty of course) btw, it's epic.
8. What is your favorite album by 15?
Korpiklaani
Tales Along This Road of course. This was Korpiklaani at their best so far.
9. What is your favorite song by 5?
Opeth
Forest of October without a doubt. It's pure awesomeness. :D
10. Is there a song by 6 that makes you happy?
Edge of Sanity
Crimson because it's just so good. I smile every time i hear this epic piece :D
11. What is your favorite album by 40?
Akercocke
Choronzon obviously.
12. What is your favorite song by 10?
Black Sabbath
Ah the almighty Sabbath.Don't care what anyone says, Dio was better in Sabbath than Ozzy, even though I like both. My favorite track is:
Die Young.
13. What is a good memory you have involving 30?
Carcass
Yep. Seeing them live at Bloodstock Open Air 2009, of course. :D
14. What is your favorite song by 38?
Wintersun
It would have to be:
Winter Madness because amazing solo is amazing.
15. Is there a song by 19 that makes you happy?
Children of Bodom
Why yes, it's:
Kissing the Shadows. Seriously, who can deny the awesomeness in that solo?

Symphony X
Once, opening for Dream Theater. What a dream line up that was.
17. What is the first song you ever heard by 23?
Metallica
Errm...controversial band. :P
I believe my first track to be
Creeping Death. It's been a favorite of mine for about 7 or 8 years.
18. What is your favorite album by 11?
Tarot
It's got to be
Suffer Our Pleasures literally for the song
Rider of the Last Day, otherwise my favorite would be
Follow Me Into Madness. I believe
Marco Hietala could be God, if he exists whether he's in Tarot,
Northern Kings or
Nightwish, his music is pure awesomeness.
19. Who is a favorite member of 1?
Dream Theater
You seriously want me to pick between
John Petrucci,
Jordan Rudess,
James LaBrie,
John Myung and
Mike Portnoy? Well I'll pick Petrucci but only because he could co into World domination mode. Though Rudess can probably open portals with his keyboarding skills, but LaBrie can break things and people with his high F's in Learning To Live. Myung, that Korean could probably control nuclear weapons with his bass guitar. Portnoy could create Black Holes with his time sig changes while drumming. Let's face it, Dream Theater will probably be what is behind 2012 and the so-called "end of the world" ;P Ok, I pick Petrucci.
20. Have you ever seen 14 live?
Alice in Chains
Nope, going to in December maybe though.
21. What is a good memory involving 27?
Porcupine Tree
Listening to
The Incident for the first time is the last good memory I had with this brilliant band. Which was in September so =)

Bloodbath
That would obviously be
Bathe in Blood. I love the guitar tone on it and Mikael's growls are awesome.
23. What is the first song you ever heard by 47?
Jeff Loomis
It was
Devil Theory I believe. Jeff only has one album out anyway but this is my first and my favorite by him. One of the greatest guitarists ever and I place him next to the likes of Michael Romeo and John Petrucci for that.
24. What is your favorite album by 18?
Kreator

Ayreon
It has to be
The Human Equation. That album is not only Arjen's finest piece of work, but it's an album in my top 5. James LaBrie, Heather Findlay, Mike Baker, Mikael Åkerfeldt and the rest, they all just rocked. I wanna listen to it now... :D

Gamma Ray
There isn't one bad song.

Rage Against the Machine
Zach De La Rocha is the man.
