BumpoI've known this song for quite some time, never knew much about the band except that Metallica covered them.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=weh1q_rUl5I&list=RDweh1q_rUl5I&start_radio=1&pp=ygUZbmFzdHkgc2F2YWdlIGtpbGxpbmcgdGltZaAHAQ%3D%3D

BLASTING
Bumping with this piece of fact: Slayer are the worst of the big 4 and they are worse than all the other big-ish thrash bands, including the Teutonic big 4.

>>132070135I watched the video clip for Invisible Horizons late one night at the metal tv show. It grabbed me by the balls. It was an onslaught of riffage, plus the fighter jets...it was like a hit of junk, couldn't replicate it when I bought the album. But the album is good nonetheless.
>>132070202this is my first time listening to the album but time waits for no one is already among my favorite songs by these guys. total fucking riff-fest.
>>132070135sick album cover. i think there's potential for a chart of just band portraits. maybe even separate it between color and b/w
>>132071444 (checked)that sounds like a cool idea>chartalso you just reminded me that i forgot to post the wip live chart lol
The live album chart is still in progress! Reply to this post with your nominations.
Current tally:
>>132071519surprised this hasn't been recommended. yeah i know metallica, but once you actually watch it you'll understand why. they were at their absolute apex here.
>>132071519+1 for Ghost in the Ruinsthe live version of Legions kicks ass, the whole show kicks assRIP Criss Olivia
>>132071855added it>the live version of Legions kicks ass, the whole show kicks assi took a look at the track list and damn it's good, only song i can really think of that's missing is white witch
>>132057112everything about this is perfect, might be the best live album i've ever listened to. oh yeah, seconding too
>>132057112Armoed Saint - March of the SaintDamn this is a good album. Pure Heavy Metal.
Listening. Probably my favourite album at the moment. Start to finish it's an experience no album provides. There's many others that I love but they require a certain mood to listen but this one I can listen to at any time without fault. It's perfect.
>>132074719Gypsy is probably my favourite track in there.Fun fact, Maiden stole the end of the main riff of Holy Diver and made the opening to Flight of Icarus
>>132070226TIIIIME WAAAAAAITS FOR NOOOOOONEYOU CAN'T MISS IT IF YOU TRY, TRY, TRYTIIIIIME WAAAAAITS FOR NOOOONEYOU CAN JOIN IT FOR A LITTLE WHILEYeah, cool album, not sure I got the lyrics correct, been a while.

>>132082143added stranger in the night, counted the rest
>>132057112all great stuff but the version of majesty here fucking washes away the original by being much more punchy and intense. and that's saying something 'cuz majesty's my favorite BG song. now i don't know why they decided to end it on barbara ann, but other than that this is a great show of the band. nominating.

>>132091569Guess it's finally time for me to check out that live Kamelot album seeing as it's the only Khan album I've haven't heard yet

>>132057112https://youtu.be/r9_jC6EiiyQ?is=iNWYoydluQ3k1eHKIt seems nearly every USPM album has at least one glam-adjacent sellout stinker. And I like (nearly) all of them.
>>132096634it's not awful, but the hook just isn't anything to write home about. which is bad, these songs live and die by having a catchy chorus lol
>>132057112https://youtu.be/kykd6PUqw9g?si=MuqFe9v_m-sqafIVThis song is a heap of lovely cheesy testosterone and a blast to play on guitar>>132096735I think it's pretty catchy but I'm more so impressed at how seamlessly the band pulls off straight up glam metal. Also I think the blend of acoustic and distorted guitars in the verses sounds genuinely unique and cool. Haven't heard anything quite like it.
>>132098421>I think it's pretty catchy but I'm more so impressed at how seamlessly the band pulls off straight up glam metal.they do pull it off very well. i mean to me it just sounds like something by warrant but with the heaviness cranked up.>Also I think the blend of acoustic and distorted guitars in the verses sounds genuinely unique and cool. Haven't heard anything quite like it.that was pretty fucking neat. there's only one song that i can think of that does the same thing and that's riot of your time by scorpions. different in execution, though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8oESFvqpmuk
>>132057112This shows the band in the interim between the raw heavy metal of their debut EP and OttN to the more polished, melodic rockers they'd do after on High 'n' Dry and Pyromania. Not only because there's an early version of Lady Strange on here (to my ears all it seemed to be missing was some parts in the chorus), but because there's prototypes of both Let It Go (When the Rain Falls) and Rock 'Till You Drop (Medicine Man), too. When the Rain Falls is the most similar of the two, I believe Medicine Man's only similarity between what it'd eventually become is the main riff, but it's cool that they're here regardless. This is also the definitive version of numerous classic Leppard songs. When The Walls Came Tumbling Down, It Could Be You, Rock Brigade, Satellite (which benefits heavily from added heaviness and better vocals from Joe, the chorus is still goofy as hell but it sounds less so), Ride Into the Sun, Hello America, I could go on. And this version of Wasted isn't any slouch either, it's quite a bit heavier than what you hear on OttN.There's also this song on here called Good Morning Freedom, and man, this fucking rocks. It's one of Leppard's heaviest and fastest songs, right alongside It Could Be You, and would've fit in on OttN perfectly. Nominating, this is a fantastic showcase of early Def Leppard. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_lLZ3c3X8b-SKxZAP-YDyo1qzvfFGrQOPA
>>132091569X Japan - The Last Live I can't believe nobody has voted for this yet. One of the best live albums ever.

Fucking love this song. Even when I wasn't strong on Squawk as a record this was still among my favorite Budgie tunes. That main riff, man. Easily one of the best from the 70s, it's so damn groovy.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_V6EqWpa1I
