Srsly.

I actually like metal, but I'm after some full on dragons and warlocks stuff. Think fretboard wankery, synths, tales of impending doom and bloody battle in the frozen wastelands, that sort of thing.

I guess like 3 Inches of Blood, but irony free.

Mammatus?

It's not THAT dumb, but it's kind of Stoner metal meets Dungeons and Dragons.

Luca Turilli

Black Dragon is the best song but I can't find a nice video of that.

Nice pink tassled gauntlet gloves. The chorus features some serious band dancing too.


Kiss

circa Destroyer


destoryer/love gun

is their smartest and bestest period!


Dragonforce

What other bands do you need?!


rhapsody of fire

dragons, elves, dwarfs, blazing synths and solos ... even christopher lee sang with them (they're that fantasy centric)

Oh yes!

Straight outta' Spinal Tap!


Twisted Tower Dire

Seriously cheesy swords 'n' sorcery power metal, that is actually kinda listenable.

Crescent Shield - See above.

And finally, Slough Feg - they fit your criteria, but are far from dumb. They are, in fact, pretty fuckin' ace.
