Hey I am a Seahawks fan, and the Super Bowl is Sunday, so I’d be remiss if I didn’t find as much bird-related metal to share today. And there’s a whole band called Falconer so I’m pretty set. With crazy ass double kick, awesome guitars, and a legitimate opera singer, Falconer is a standard-bearer for epic power metal.

Spirit of the (Sea)Hawk: I think the last time I listened to this while biking, I went ludicrous speed. Or everything just turned plaid around me.

Wings of Serenity: Yet another song that got me cycling faster than I thought possible.

Where Eagles Dare: Here’s a Tyr cover of Iron Maiden’s Where Eagles Dare, because Tyr is a phenomenal battle metal band, and they make this song sound as big as Iron Maiden intended.

The Flight of Icarus: And Iron Maiden’s Flight of Icarus, because I flew too close to the sun, on wings of pastrami. Also it’s great to see that Bruce Dickinson had bangs. Kickin bangs.
