< Rhapsody of Fire
Rhapsody of Fire/YMMV
- Complete Monster: Akron and the Queen of the Dark Horizons have no redeeming qualities whatsoever.
- Same goes for Nekron, but considering he's the son of the god of hell, it's pretty well justified.
- Large Ham: In a genre literally defined by the finest hams in metal, Fabio Lione is almost inarguably the largest and hammiest vocalist in the entire genre. Hell, one could make the case that it extends to the entire group when compared to their fellow bands.
- Mondegreen: Fabio's strong accent and rather unique inflection lends itself to a few of these. At other times it's Averted for the same reason, because it's impossible to imagine him to be saying anything in English, at least without reading the lyrics.
- Narm: If you combine the aforementioned strong accent and unique inflection with Luca Turilli's fairly... idiosyncratic grasp of English, this is what you get.
- In "Gargoyles, Angels of Darkness":
"Oh no! Oh God! Oh God no! What is happening!"
- The First Act of The Cold Embrace of Fear has a nice example too.
"IT'S AN AVALAAAAAAAAAANCHE!"
- Not to mention this gem from Heroes of the Waterfalls' Kingdom:
"Fly! Fly, mighty Thanor! For your revenge! AND OUR FREEDOOOOOOOOOOM!
- Narm Charm: Fabio Lione is the king of this trope.
- So Bad It's Good: The official music videos for "Power of the Dragonflame" and "Rain of a Thousand Flames"...
- Special Effects Failure: And this is the main reason why.
- The video for "Unholy Warcry", by contrast, is rather well-put together. Obviously they had a bigger budget for that one.
