I still have a couple of Venom LP"s. Welcome to Hell and At War With Satan.
I plan on converting them to MP3 and then to disc this weekend. I have about 
80  albums I want to do this to. I did 15 already and they sound really good. I 
think they sound better than regular cd's. I did Saxon's Strong Arm of the law
a few weeks back. The cool thing about doing this is that I'm hearing albums I
haven't heard in over twenty years. I have about 200 albums but only about 90
that I haven't already bought on disc. The cd's I'm making sound better than 
manufactured cd's of the same album. When I finish doing the ones I don't have
on disc i'm thinking of doing my Priest albums. I knew LP"s sounded better than 
disc but I didn't know converting them would sound better also. Can anyone 
explain this?      ....Guido? (knower of all)

Well they are alright Budred,I don't have anything negative to say about them,but I really don't get into too many bands that play heavy metal/thrash,only a hand full throughout the years but they are close to some of the bands that I like,Hirax,Deathrow,Hallow's Eve,Razor but these bands I only like certain albums from,not every album ect.... Good example though.

My favorite styles of music are traditional heavy metal and "OLD" black metal from 1980 when Venom started it up to the year 1995 but I'll give it untill the year 2000 but after that I don't like any bands that emerged onto the scene.At this point its just ridiculous to form a "black metal band",fans of this once elite  genre who enjoy it should NOT form a black metal band,they should let the old school bands do thier thing.  I really don't like very much "death metal" at all even though I have a fun project with a friend for the last 10 years that is early 90's death metal but its in the vien of old Morbid Angel and old Deicide. Those 2 bands are the best death metal bands but only thier early work,thier later stuff is ridiculous and boring,sold out and washed up.

J.D., I don't have a link but go to Lastfm and key in Fog of War616 and
listen to the track Fog of War. It's not that I think you'll love it but it reminds
me of the kind of music you're always talking about. It's a little thrashy, with
a European style of guitar playing and decent vocals. Check it out and let 
me know what you think. I don't think you have to sign up to listen to music
there. Check out my page. Check out my journal of "Bands I've seen live".
Some will make you puke but I think you'll notice an interesting mix of music.
Realize that alot of these bands were openers so it's not like I went there to see them.
Also a couple of the shows I went because my wife wanted to. She was a dance teacher
for 15 years so don't hate too much when you read them. Peace!

SAXON - ALTAR OF THE GODS   from the Solid Ball Of Rock LP
This track is definately one of Saxon's finest on a less than average album unfortunately.


This album is "not a good Saxon album over-all" but it does hold a couple of killer Saxon tracks: Solid Ball Of Rock,Lights In The Sky,Baptism Of Fire,Barvarian Rhapsody and  "ALTAR OF THE GODS".

Dogs Of War - 1995

This LP has 10 songs on it Painkilller and in my opinion only 2 of them suck "Hold On" and "Give It All Away" but the other 8 tracks are an albums worth of classic Saxon.

Thats cool Painkiller,alls you need now are Dogs Of War,Unleash The Beast,Metalhead and Killing Ground and you'll have the 12 Saxon albums that are the band's best. 
The other 6 albums I wouldn't buy. My 2 favorite Saxon albums are Lionheart and The Inner Sanctum.

Saxon - I've Got To Rock(To Stay Alive) from The Inner Sanctum LP 2007.....let Iron Maiden take a baseball bat and hump each other with it because they can't come close to the greatness of "SAXON". 
Biff Byford = the second best heavy metal vocalist next to our Metal God!!!
