    Lack of industrial metal, glam metal and nu-metal (You might not like it, but It's important), and I can't believe I'm saying this, but, too much power metal. I really hope you are going to include doom metal in your next update.

    I feel that Budgie and Mercyful Fate are staples in metal setlists considering how they contributed, so maybe consider adding them.

    Otherwise, not a bad start.

    Great list. Although it could use some thrash metal like Megadeth, Slayer, Testament, Kreator etc.

    Actually, he has a good amount of Power Metal. Especially the tracks he listed aren't worse than decent at the least.

    I think this is a good setlist so far.

    I want to say that I really, really like this setlist so far. I would buy it as is.

    Satan's Fall is actually released under the name Mercyful Fate, not King Diamond, so you might want to change that. Very minor issue, of course.

    I'm not sure Jewel Throne is the best possible Celtic Frost song - it gets kind of repetitive for me. Maybe The Usurper or Necromantical Screams? A Fine Day to Die also might have this problem - maybe Dies Irae or Pace 'Till Death?

    Maybe add a few more black metal songs - say a symphonic black metal song (Emperor seems to be the most obvious choice) and maybe something from France, with its fairly substantial scene?

    Pour Some Sugar on Me might be better labeled hair metal. Again, very minor.

    I do think you really need a Swedish death metal song, maybe two. Hopefully that doesn't make the death metal section too large.

    I'm unsure about including Blind Guardian, Iced Earth, and Demons and Wizards. I don't know if its a problem, but something to consider.

    The "stage" for Call of the Wintermoon needs to just be the video. No characters playing the song - just the video.

    This is an excellent start and I look forward to seeing the rest!
    Unleashed in the East - Judas Priest
    Don't Break the Oath - Mercyful Fate
    Morbid Tales - Celtic Frost

    Yeah, I accidentally wrote King Diamond instead of Mercyful Fate, but that is an easy mistake.

    Black Metal isn't something I listen to that much of, so I'll take any recommendation of a band.
    After listening to The Usurper I think that its a much better choice, I still like A Fine Day To Die as a Bathory choice, though.
    I don't listen to any Emperor, so please give me your best choice.

    I don't know why I decided to put Pour Some Sugar on Me in Classic Metal, fixed.

    I actually have 3 Swedish Death Metal songs: At The Gates, In Flames, and Soilwork.

    Blind Guardian and Iced Earth have completely different styles, so I'll keep them but I don't really think I need Demons & Wizards.

    Yes, the music video should be the stage for Call Of The Wintermoon, as it is so hilarious.

    I guess I'll have to put it more industrial, glam/hair and nu-metal even though I don't really like them.
    Theres never something as too much power metal
    Doom Metal isn't something I listen to, so please give me some suggestions.
    Budgie has been added and I had a Mercyful Fate song but I accidentally labeled it as King Diamond.

    Some Emperor possibilities:

    Wrath of the Tyrant (Emperor, 1993)
    Witches Sabbath (As the Shadows Rise, 1994)
    Inno a Satana(In the Nightside Eclipse, 1994)
    I Am the Black Wizards(In the Nightside Eclipse, 1994)
    Cosmic Keys to My Creations and Times(In the Nightside Eclipse, 1994)
    With Strength I Burn(Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk, 1997)

    Many of these aren't exactly the best quality, so there's certainly a question of whether they'd be in usable form. Fortunately, there are live versions of many of these off the Live Inferno and Live at Wacken releases, so you could always list those versions.

    I'm not sure which would be my suggestion - I only just got the first two EPs. Of the songs off Nightside Eclipse, I'd probably pick Cosmic Keys.

    For Swedish death metal, I meant bands like Entombed or Dismember - straight-up death metal, rather than the Gothenburg melodic death bands. (Early) Therion, Entombed, and Dismember would be my choices.

    I can also suggest a little doom metal:

    Candlemass
    Witchfinder General
    Trouble
    Thorr's Hammer
    Unleashed in the East - Judas Priest
    Don't Break the Oath - Mercyful Fate
    Morbid Tales - Celtic Frost
    Epicus Doomicus Metallicus - Candlemass

    I would prefer it if you didn't do a metalcore section if those are the bands you are going to use
