Amberian Dawn: Where to start?

**Exxucus** · Joined: 12 Apr 2008 Posts: 928 Location: Daein

I've been craving some power metal lately, and Amberian Dawn has it in spades. The problem is the same as with tying to break into Chaotrope; where to begin. I bought Shallow Waters back when it first came out, and I've been pretty indifferent to it (meh verses, and a solo that's too hard for me to enjoy).

So what are the most enjoyable Amberian Dawn songs, be it for guitar, keys, drums, or as a full band?

Yeah they were. It's amazing how I had an almost naked lady rubbing her boobs on my head (I'm the drummer in the video) and I was like "Hey GTFO I'm trying to play".

Lullaby is quite fun on guitar, though it is one of few without a solo. I also really love playing Blackbird on keys. And most of them are fun on drums if you ask me.

I bought about 20 of them and I find that while I like them they are just way to difficult on Guitar for me to enjoy (for the most part). For me, River of Tuoni is the best one they have though, you should pick that one up

I only have a couple Amberian Dawn songs but of them, I find He Sleeps in a Grove and Incubus fun to play on drums sometimes. The He Sleeps solo is not very hard outside of one part, but the Incubus solo is basically pretty tough the whole way through.

I don't have all of them, but Dreamchaser is super fun (and not retardedly difficult) on guitar. Valkyries is my favorite of them musically.

River of Tuoni isn't that hard of a song on every instrument, and it sounds pretty cool too. Drums can be a little tiring, though, depending on how well you are with constant kicks.

Blackbird is also really fun to play on drums and keys.

I would say most of the songs from the most recent album would be the best bet. They are pretty good overall imo

I only play drums.

Dreamchaser, Blackbird, Talisman, and Lullaby are all great on Pro Drums.

He Sleeps in a Grove is my favorite song from them, but it does not have pro drums charted.

I have a bunch of their drum charts on my Youtube channel http://www.youtube.com/user/NoThru22

I really enjoy Fate of the Maiden and Evil Inside Me great on guitar as well as drums, now that I looked closer.

I bought a few of the harder songs off the new album the other day, and the only song I cannot recommend is Arctica. Can't stand playing it on guitar. Fields of Serpents is really fun, although it is pretty difficult throughout.
