Well said People need to give everything a chance - I may only be young but i know enough to realise that my generation is impatient, quick to judge, wasteful and self centred. They don't give anything a second glance unless the tools controlling fashion and the media/culture say it's "cool" there are only a handful of of us who appreciate those who have gone before us, those who have florished well before we were born, and trends that were set before our time. And i'm not one of those hipsters who likes to wear retro because it's cool, for example if im wearing a band shirt or sporting a badge with a band name on it, rest assured i know who they are, what they play and own some of their albums.
I feel like in a way i'm forced to listen to older bands, and albums because whats on offer currently from newer bands just lacks depth, unless anyone can suggest anything? And not any of those bands who just cut and copy riffs and lyrics from the legends and sell it as their own.. oh and having a vocalist who sings is good too.. i hate that screaming / growling crap.

What really pisses me off is when someone makes a judgment of a album without giving it a chance. If you want to understand why or where your band is going with there music at least listen to the damn album. You know heavy metal is not all about screaming thru the whole song, lets get back to where the music moves you deep down. This judas priest album does that for me, thank you to band that stayed with there roots and did'nt get caught up in the screaming crap.
