hey J.D i thought the metal monster was priest lol.yeah nostradamus was definatly not on my top 10 list but i grew to appreciate it way more than i did when i first listened to it.there are some great songs on there in my opinion but unfortunatly there there are some that are very boring and waaayyyyy to slow((i have to admit i found myself falling to sleep to it a couple of times and awaking to the begining of persection lol)but if was apparently something the priest have wanted to do for a while.well it is out of there system.hopefully now they will forge us some screaming,bashing, HARD CORE

People, if you like the classic sounds of early Heavy Metal, here is a lost gem that I have had the pleasure to acquire!



Ritual - Widow - 1983

One of the most underrated and ignored British bands of the 70s! If you like your rock with some groovy solos, and a hanting  atmosphere, get your hands on this!
[J.D. DIAMOND] Sunday, April 19, 2009 4:27:41 PM 
Yeah Sully I used to have that CD back in 92',it does have some cool stuff on it. "Children Of The Revolution"  was a good track.Have you ever seen Paul Di Anno and band doing an accustic version of "Wrathchild"? Check it out on youtube! I don't care for it but its pretty wierd! lol!

lol! Right on Hellrider that is awsome!   I on the other hand need multiple metal bands to compleate my metal fix ...kind of like assembling all the metal pieces to create a metal monster! lol! But I do understand your need for only Judas Priest. To bad they had to drop "Nostradamus" on us in a time when you need "METAL" the most...3 years and counting after the release of the magnificent metal driven - "Angel Of Retribution"!!!!

Flight of Icarus is, hands down, my favourite MAIDEN track! It was the first I ever listened to from them and it snatched my heart, it was so incredible!

And guys, here's the album of the year, by far:

It's good to see you too, Deep Freeze. Let's just say that I'm surviving. I'm not around that often, because the recession is kicking my ass. I have too much on my plate right now. I will make a comeback when I have my life back together.

Dude, "Killers" is indeed one of the greatest Iron Maiden albums. Paul Di'Anno is such an underrated singer. I'm a big fan of all the stuff Iron Maiden put out during the Di'Anno era, but I also love the material Di'Anno released during his solo career. Some of this solo stuff, like the 1992 "Murder One" album pictured above, is top notch. 

Check out these two terribly underrated songs:

Iron maiden    Flight Of Icarus  EP     from the Piece Of Mind album 1983

I agree Painkiller87.....Piece Of Mind is my 2nd favorite Iron Maiden album with Killers being my first. 

I also like the cover of Jethro Tull's Cross Eyed Mary that they did on the B-side of the Flight Of Icarus EP!!!!!!

I used to have this EP on vinyl when it came out in 1983.......the sad thing is that I don't even freakin "remember" what ever happened to it? lol!

DelivererofEvil,I agree with you for the most part here. I do not like very many death metal bands,but I do like some.Vader is a death metal band but they are just not my cup of tea,but to each his own. I think that the most interesting death metal bands are 2 bands...thier old stuff..."DEICIDE" and "MORBID ANGEL".....both old albums only. 

Deicide's first 4 studio albums..Deicide,Legion,Once Upon The Cross and Serpents Of The Light (1990-1997)are the best.Anything after that,I don't like except for the 5th album Insinneratehymn is ok at time,but not as good as the first 4.  Morbid Angel's first 5 albums kick ass(1989-1998)..after that they suck.  

Old school Black Metal is far more interesting to me than any death metal. But I don't like any "new" black metal bands that come out....the scene is dead and too many bands are just dressing up for an excuse to wear corpse paint and makeup. 

It used to be something hidden and underground/elite back in the early-mid 1990's. I have been into black metal since 1984  when I first hear Venom's At War With Satan album,Mercyful Fate "Don't Break The Oath" album,Bathory,Celtic Frost,Slayer,Possessed....I was into these black metal bands back in the day,and all the way into the early 1990's...except I did'nt hear of the Norwegian scene untill 1993 when the death of Euronymous was in metal magazines.I then ordered Darkthrone's Under A Funeral Moon(1993) from a Hit Parader mag in 1994 I think it was... lol! And then Mayhem,Emperor,ect...so I have been into this genre basically since Venom started it. 

So I have been into "smaller bands" since day one man. I really do not like the majority of heavy metal bands...for instance "Running Wild" I only like "Under Jollly Roger".Rolf Kasperek's vocals are cool on this album,but they are different on the next album "Port Royal" at least they are to me...he seemed to go off on an operetic frenzy from that album on....I just do not care for the songs themselves ..I'm not saying that they are not heavy metal but I just don't like them that much.I guess its like "food"...some of us eat something and love it..others puke it up and can't stand it,no different and no one's opinion is the right opinion,we all just like what we like.

The heavy metal...heavy metal/rock and heavy metal/thrash(not pure thrash but heavy metal thrash) bands that I like and own are:

Black Sabbath
Judas Priest
Motorhead
Saxon
Iron Maiden
Ozzy (Blizzard Of Oz/Diary Of A Madman/Bark At The Moon and No Rest For The Wicked only!
Dio/Heaven & Hell
Pentagram
Old Metallica (I consider them heavy metal)
Exciter
Hallow's Eve
Agent Steel(Skeptics Apocalypse album)
Running Wild(Under Jolly Roger album only)
King Diamond
Deathrow(a band from Germany in the 80's)
Iced Earth(Iced Earth album and Night Of The Stormrider only)

So there are about 16 bands that are heavy metal in one way or another that I like.

Being narrow minded helps you fight the banalization of music spreading like a disease.

I for one fight for my Heavy Metal, even if I won't ostracize other kinds of music. Still we're debating Heavy Metal here:

I don't listen to all types of metal. I can't bear to listen through most Death bands, not a big fan of cookie monster vocals. The only one that kept my interest - and I listen to it every once in a while, not on a regular basis - would be VADER. Fuckin' loved their sound and Pete's vocals aren't as inintelligible as that. I also confess that I haven't delved deep into the style, but again, we'll get there on the why nots further on.

I am a HUGE fan of Heavy Metal, plain and simple and Hard Rock. Most of the music I listen to comes from before the 90s, before I was born, because I simply can't connect to these new kinds of metal that popped up during my decade, such as Death/Dooms, then the Thrashcores, and other such cr*p such as "x"-cores and NO-Metal.

Give me the NWOBHM anytime, I've been digging up bands that have laid there forgotten for ages, such as Bronz, Praying Mantis, Aragorn, Angelwitch, Picture, Black Widow, Ritual, Brocas Helm, Medieval Steel and there's loads and loads more to discover. And this is what I want to get across as a point for my first sentence.

There's wat too much music now on the internet for you to listen to all of it, and most of it isn't worth your time. So stick to what you specially like, dig into the archives for those records and bands of a period you particularly like, and support the bands that still preach the Heavy Metal Faith to this day. And I don't mean just the PRIEST or MAIDEN. I mean the smaller bands. For example, here in Portugal we have a decent scene, but it is populated by Death/Grind/Black Metal. If you're lucky you'll get some Thrash concerts every now and then, and quite a lot of punk. But when it comes to Heavy Metal, the visible fans, those who lend their faces to showing their love for it, can be counted on the fingers of hands and toes out of a scene of thousands!

For instance, I know for a fact that while the 80s generation still has some (now respectable sirs) supporters, my generation is a desert for the original form of our favourite music!

So yeah, NARROW MINDED for the win! I'll listen to samples of other stuff from time to time and if someone recommends a band to me, I'll check it out, many times just to get arguments to refute that band. But it has happened that I opened exceptions to the rule and there's quite a few bands that I can enjoy, from time to time. On my daily life I eat Heavy Metal from sun to sun and into the night!

This is the attitude that has gone missing in most scenes, people are getting too comformist, turning into sheep that follow the latest trends when barely 10 years ago each of us strived to be unique!

Wow, long rant to the sound of Rainbow In The Dark, but I hope I managed to get my point across!
