Band: Rough Silk

Status:

These guys started out as a Helloween meets Savatage versus Judas Priest with a singer who sounded like a metal version of Freddie Mercury. They evolved into the premier theatrical metal band they are today. Mephisto is the best of all the releases showcasing heaviness, melody, and all the epicness of Queen. Their stuff after Mephisto got different, but it's still good.
