Living Sacrifice? What type of music do they play?
Resurrection metal.
An overarching term representing the majority of bands in the following genres : Power Metal, Battle Metal, Folk Metal, Symphonic Metal
A few typical bands would include, Dragonforce, Firewind, Turisas, Nightwish, Blind Guardian, Kamelot, Within Temptation etc. etc.
You could include bands like Amon Amarth, however the growling vocals & lack of keyboards sets these types of bands slightly apart.
With Quest Metal bands you tend to be able to actually hear the vocals and lyrics clearly, some use a more operatic style, choirs etc.
Growling vocals are less prominent.
Quest Metal can be any type of metal with at least 3 of the following:
- Historical (Generally Medieval) or Fantasy Themes
- lyrics which could be loosely described as "quest like"
Songs generally including 3 or more of the following subjects:
Warriors, Mythical beings, Maidens which may or may not require saving, Fighting, Battles, Power, Glory, Seas, Mountains, Fire, Ice, Rain, Gates and or their Keepers
- Predominantly Clean Vocals
- Fast Melodic Intstrumentation
- Use of Keyboards
