Hmmm, interesting. Try to find a Bieber fan that knows the guitar solo..... good luck. I also doubt he's on Mozart's level, and can memorise a piece with one listen. Suggests that he actually knows the song.

Still, he sounds and looks like a complete idiot. All Metallica fans will rejoice when life imitates art, and the line "but now he is gone" comes in to play. Gone not meaning death btw.

 

[Slash]

He does know the song. He's stated before he's a long time Metallica fan and uses their work as inspiration for his.


Which makes NO sense.

Speaking on Metallica... James Hetfield came into my store 3 days ago. Hes kind of a dick, not very surprising. Though my conversation with him was very brief.

Should have got a picture of him lol. I'm surprised. He's usually good natured around his fans. They are well known for being good with their fans. Interesting.

Has anyone listened to the new The Devil Wears Prada album? I'm on the fence about it. The instruments are fantasic but the vocals seem to be getting worse, which is a shame as the lsat two albums the vocals were spot ok in, my opinion.

 

[Slash]

Just got the new Metal Church album. Can't wait to listen to it.


EDIT:

I like it. It's like a combination of "The Dark" and some of their work with Mike Howe on vocals.

KILL IT!!!! KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!!


Oh dear god...

No. Nononononononono. NO.

 

[Omnis]

This is the best thing.

I just came back from a party I had with all of my friends to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Bark At the Moon! We're all huge Ozzy fans, so we had to have a birthday party for it . It's amazing to think that such a piece of Heavy Metal art was released on this same day thirty years ago!
LONG LIVE THE BEAST!!!

 

[Slash]

I love that song...


The month is wrong but Iron Maiden's Piece of Mind album is also 30 years old this year. Lot of well known songs spawned from this album.

 

[Marbles]

oh yeah! I LOVE The Trooper. that's the song that got me into Maiden

 

[Slash]

oh yeah! I LOVE The Trooper. that's the song that got me into Maiden

Amen! That was one of the ones that got me into them as well. My dad used to play both the Fear of the Dark and Live After Death albums all the time. After that I was sold!! All time favorite band.

 

[disinfected]

Can't wait to get my hands on this album. So good.

 

[Callum B]

Youtube's "recommended for you" system has provided some cracking bands for me to discover, my favourite of which are Tyr, Amon Amarth, Hammerfall, Dethklok, Testament and Sabaton.

 

[Omnis]

@disinfected, the djent is strong in this one.

I have since checked out the whole album. It's an adventure in album form.

Loving this song since I've first heard it in GTA Vice City (V-Rock radio). \m/

BTW, The Trooper is one of my favourite Iron Maiden songs, too. 👍
But only recently I knew what is this song about. The Charge of the Light Brigade in the Crimean War.

...
The horse he sweats with fear we break to run
The mighty roar of the Russian guns
And as we race towards the human wall
The screams of pain as my comrades fall
...

This kind of special feeling when you get the real meaning of a song...

 

[GENERALSAVANT]

Ah! I'm excited, I found a metal thread. Hopefully we can all gain by sharing bands. Due to the lack of talent in the current radio play loving landscape I'm always looking for new bands. Lets jam.

 

[GENERALSAVANT]

And this is one of my all time favs. If you've never listen to BTBAM and like metal give yourself a challenge and listen to this the whole way through. It's the only way to fly.... I've seen almost every tour this band has done. the closest thing I'll get to a spiritual epiphany 28:38.

 

[Müle]

...and for those who like the -core in their metal kept to a minimum, here's a little known Austrian band that plays some damn good thrash.




I remember stumbling across them on last.fm back in '08 I think, and they had a couple of free downloads. I liked it and subsequently pirated the whole album, and it had been in my library ever since. Finally went and ordered the CD this month.

 

[Rage Racer]

Now I have my ears on Soviet metal.
Kruiz was the only Soviet band to play real speed metal. The first metal album - Kruiz-1 - had 12,5 million copies sold in USSR.
In 1988, they redid some of their songs with English lyrics and released the album Kruiz. The song In Flames from this album received a lot of air-play in the Canadian metal show, The Power Hour.

 

[GENERALSAVANT]

8 Strings anyone?

 

[GENERALSAVANT]

Enemies of the khanate
Strung on hooks like pigs to slaughter
Heads will roll
Heads will roll, and throats will be slit
And blood will flow like springs of water
Heads will roll

To the rivers red, across the ochre steppe

A thousand fathers killed, a thousand virgin daughters spread
With swords still wet, with swords still wet
With the blood of their dead.

Nurjan is upon us, he kills in silence after prayers
Genghis Khan is upon us, he slays his betrayers
Genghis Khan is upon us, he slays his betrayers

Thus now the fools of God will guard the city of our birth
Hold an ear to the ground to hear the sound of clamoring
And horses stammering as their gallop meets the earth

A thousand fathers killed, a thousand virgin daughters spread
With swords still wet, with swords still wet
With the blood of their dead.
[x2]

Tomorrow
Tomorrow they will find us, hide the children free of sin
We will meet their blades by morning protected only by our skin
Tomorrow we will find them, seek the youngest of their kin
We will meet them with our fury,
We will crush them all like vermin
We will crush them all like vermin

Anyone here listen to metal while driving in GT? I used to listen to Bolt Thrower while cruising in an Enzo around the Nurburgring. Really great crushing death, beat the smooth porno jazz anyway

 

[QuikSlvr223]

I first heard Through the Fire and Flames only about two months ago, and it's still stuck in my head. I like the "intensity," so to speak, to be in the instruments. Whenever I listen to something all screamy, I feel like it's trying too hard.

Tom Araya from Slayer singing Scorpions in high school.

I do. Megadeth mostly. I enjoy running my Viper ACR on Nurburgring with Mustaine's guitar in the BGM. Fast songs, like this:


or this:

 

[Slash]

I love old school Megadeth.

 

[Callum B]

Heard this and went on a whim and bought the whole album, wasn't disappointed.

I did the same thing about a month back with 'Deceiver Of The Gods' and now Amon Amarth is in my top ten bands.

 

[Slash]

Oh my god look what I found...
