Power Trip is rad. I just dont like Volbeats "hoody-hoo, I'm Elvis" bullshit vocals, or their dad rock instrumentals. Their song with King Diamond is dope, except for when Volbeat's singer sings.
The I'm not much of a fan either, but they absolutely do a ton for younger bands. Power Trip aren't the first hardcore/crossover band they've taken out. Mad respect.
When you consider their venues are literally 200x the size of PTs (not counting opening b8gger shows), its an extremely unfair advantage. I've seen both bands, of rather go see PT again in terms of performance.
I mean that's nice and all and I like PT and they're great live but regardless of venue size, Maiden performance>>> Counting the size of the venue is almost irrelevant. Like them or not, there are not too many bands that can bring as good of a performance as Maiden does and IMO PT def ain't topping them.
The one time I saw maiden, Bruce was the only one who was really "performing", other guys just played. Which is fine, they're obviously great musicians. Idk, ill take a small punk/hardcore show over an arena show.
Both times ive seen Power trip they were okay, but far from yhe best band at the show. Saying theyre on the same level as Iron maiden in any capacity is delusional.
I'm not, actually. I'm not even being serious, I just wanted to see if I could keep the discussion going lol. I do like PT a lot, but yeah basically what slap said.
