judas priest is fucking awesome

and ac/dc if they count as metal
and black sabbath
and motley crue
and iron maiden

and kiss are a novelty for fucksake, just take it at face value.

Orthrelm. Ov is a fucking beast.

I have an enormous tolerance for Motley Crue, believe me. But even I have to admit that it's pretty well impossible to sit through a whole album of theirs. Even their best ofs are only about 30% listenable.

never would i listen to the whole album! that's just asking for it.

sister ray was selling motorhead CDs for £3 today, so i treated myself to bomber & overkill, i don't count motorhead as metal really, but other people seem to.

Indeed. For every Dr Feelgood there are a hundred Girls Girls Girls.

I'm just waiting for Sebadoh fans to get hip to W.A.S.P. Now that really will be interesting. In a slowing down to look at a car wreck kind of a way.

speaking of sebadoh have you ever heard their version of pink moon?
made me want to bash my skull in.

OV rules.

But orthrelm definitely is not metal in the slightest.

*EDIT*: I see they do in fact get lumped in with "metal" bands often actually so I guess I'm going to have to go back on my statement a bit. I just don't think they sound anything like a metal band... then again, I don't know what other genre to put them in.

Fopp have got some insanely cheap metal at the moment. I hate that shop but never seem to leave it with much money left in my pocket.

Yeah, it's tough to place them. Metal seems like the only real place to put them. Or call it "shred-core"

haha.

Have you heard crom-tech? I like them a hell of a lot more... well, they never did anything as good as "ov", but ..

I'm prepared to bet a pound that you'll not find too many My Bloody Valentine fans at the next Saxon gig.

Haven't heard them. I'll have to check it out whenever I start downloading again.

If you're saying that in reference to Saxon, then honestly don't bother.

yeah that's right! YOU!

No, Crom-Tech. Anything with historical-ish names I steer clear of.

Run to the HIIIIIILLSSS .... Run FOOOR YOUR LIIIEEEEIIIIIFFFFEEEE

That just turned me into a twelve year old again. :D

bruce dickinson is one damn ugly fucker.

If you don't absolutely love this, then I hate you, basically. Halford being a total metal God.

Anyway, back when Kerrang was good: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9wP7Fty7-2E

That's fucking amazing! Seriously.

BULLET BELTS AHOY!

this is my favourite death metal band probably

I like a lot of death metal musically, but can never get beyond finding the vocals a bit comical. I can like death metal, but never take it seriously because of that. Which is a bit of a shame really, cos musically, a lot of it is excellent (as with that Necrophagist clip you posted).

pentangle vs pentagram: marvelous

sickest drummer in death metal (literally): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R20v3Mjb9Zg

an extra by another one of the greats, non-classic: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfRGF-MWYsE

Everything to like about metal is found in this video. Give it the full run through and you won't be disapointed: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3uvf...eature=related

EDIT: If you're a lazy fucker, skip to about 4 mins in and watch it from there. Brilliance!

thrashmania!

i liked lair of the minotaur best when weasel was a member.

There's something about the way metal bands introduce their songs on stage which is so reassuringly rubbish.
