I know very well that you were not trying to dog my opinion, so I'm not butt hurt at all. I'm an open-minded person and I was simply asking you for some recommendations. That's all. I will definitely check out Black Foot and Foghat. What else do you recommend? I know a shitload of bands, but I don't know everything. I'm always on the lookout for top notch metal and rock. You see? I'm not butt hurt at all. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by J.D. DIAMOND from Thursday, December 10, 2009 4:28:28 AM)

Why? Are you supposed to "shut me down" had I not named any "biker" bands from the 70's or 80's??(lol) Just because there are not an abundance of "biker bands" doesn't make "Circus Of Power" a great band to me,maybe not to you.I wasn't trying to dog your opinion as obviously you are butt hurt(lol!)but man they really don't sound like what would be "biker rock" ...I just can't see any bikers throwing down thier Motorhead albums and pumping what sounds to me as a late 80's Guns N Roses styled band,and to me Guns N Roses are not "biker music".To me biker music would be Motorhead,Ted Nugent,Black Foot,Foghat and shit like that,but this band doesn't cross my ears as something a biker dude would be rollin,thats all.

I like them. You hate them. That's fine. We all have our personal opinions.
You know what, J.D.? I challenge YOU to give me some titles of songs that sound like real biker metal/rock to your ears (apart from Motörhead). And I'm not talking about modern stuff, I'm talking about old-school stuff from the eighties or seventies. Give me some titles of songs or albums I should check out and who knows... maybe you'll get me into a new band. (Quoting Message by J.D. DIAMOND from Wednesday, December 09, 2009 4:13:39 PM)

Wow,that really doesn't "sound" like "biker rock and roll" it sounds like a washed up MTV hair band that wants to be "Axl Rose" and Guns N Roses to me and my ears.No offense,but that is not good biker rock.

I've never been a big fan of Motörhead. I really respect them, but I never got into their music. That doesnt mean I dislike their genre. I just don't like Lemmy's voice. I always listen to the New York band Circus Of Power if I want to hear some old-school heavy biker rock n' roll:
