Aside from the vocals this song would fit right in on a Cannibal Corpse album
Plus there's a heavy Dream Theater influence on a few of the other songs which I really dig, and even a folk metal battle hymn. After the first album you could have brushed the band off as some weird Japanese experiment, but after listening to Metal Resistance there's obviously someone with real talent composing the songs, and I for one dig the vocals

It boggles my mind how much I am enjoying this. I should hate it, but for some reason I don't. Then I saw them on Colbert recently too, I thought it was awesome. You're right, the music itself is proper metal, not 'metal' like you'd see on a TV show or movie where they're at a concert or something.
