Bit of an Aussie flavoured mashup for you Kade  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJIIGpuuuYQ


Guitar solo should please you 

I missed this but will check out tonight.

While I'm here, your inbox is full Mr popular!! 

[wolfking]

Ha!  I actually watched that a couple of weeks ago.  How well Tiptons solo fits in there is quite scary truthfully.

So I'm listening to Manowar's 80's and 90's material, after never feeling that I needed anything beyond Louder than Hell (THE GODS MADE HEAVY METAL... ). 

I can't say that there's one album that I feel is truly necessary, but they definitely have some fun songs peppered throughout the albums.  So far, I'm enjoying the Hell on Wheels live album the most, since it pulls most of those good songs together.

Hail to England and Sign of the Hammer are my favourites, though I haven't listened to a lot of their later albums.

Hail To England is a perfect metal album, imo. The sound is thick, over-loud and distorted but it works. The songs are great. Viking battle glory, vampires, more battle slaughter, England and metal, metal fans, stupid bass solo, satanic worship. What's not to like?

Tim pimped us the Lightbringer if Sweden when their last album came out.  I thought it was fantastic and go back to it quite often.  Just noticed they have a new one that came up in my YouTube recs.

Haven't listened to it yet though myself.

[jingle.boy]

Nice.  I'll give it a spin.  They released a single from this very early last year, and I've been waiting for the album ever since!

[TAC]

Yes!! I haven't had a chance to spin the whole thing but dropping the needle on it, it's quite easy on the ears.

Holy shit. Pretty good first song (after the intro). I'll have to listen to this for real this weekend.

Check the first album if you haven't already Brian.

[Deathless]

Hell yeah! That's a great share, thanks all.

Will do.

[TheSoylentMan]

Here's something cool I found while thrifting today. 

I had no idea what Foundations Forum was; I'm doing my reading on it. Looks like the previous complation from '88 included a Majesty/DT track.

[TAC]

That's cool!

[bl5150]

Ditto - some real solid bands/songs on that.

[wolfking]

Yeah, that's cool as fuck.  There are some awful band names in there though. 

[TAC]

You mean, you don't want to go to the big Joy Thunder, Sleez Beez, Cherri Rocket show??

[wolfking]

You mean, you don't want to go to the big Joy Thunder, Sleez Beez, Cherri Rocket show??

No, because I'll already be at the Cats in Boots show with support act Toy Roz.

[Deathless]

It's wild to compare the industry then to what it is now. Back then you had major labels signing all these random rock and metal acts to deals. Today I doubt Elektra or anyone will touch you unless you're already a platinum-selling artist/group.

Very cool share.

[TheSoylentMan]

Yeah, that's cool as fuck.  There are some awful band names in there though.

LOL I know. I showed this to my brother and we had a good laugh about some of band names. Sleez Beez

Good to hear that Dave Meniketti has been given the  after his prostate cancer treatment and is in remission 

[wolfking]

That's beautiful news.   

[bl5150]

Coming soon...........................Tim's been waiting almost a decade for this

I never got to pet that fucking goat! 

[Kwyjibo]

It's not a goat, it's a goit, whatever that is. 

[jingle.boy]

I dunno, but you could probably have it lanced.

I stumbled onto this the other week. Absolutely excellent, afaic. Tons of early Maiden worship and fun to be had.

I remember checking them out a few years back and yeah.........they have some good stuff.

Yes! Audrey Horne! Great band...I've sung their praises more than once here on DTF...

This last album of theirs definitely upped the Maiden and NWOBHM influence, but their more recent few are generally very classic rock/metal-oriented. Check out in particular Youngblood and Pure Heavy, they are fantastic.

If you want something a little weirder/more unique, go back a little further and try Le Fol (their second album) and the self-titled (their third)...there is some Faith No More/alternative influence creeping in on those.  All good stuff.

[DoctorAction]

Nice.  Will definitely check more. The whole Devil's Bell album is a hugely satisfying chunk of heavy cheese.

I expect it to be up there with my personal favourite in this category, Spidergawd: https://youtu.be/x6zpDIyb85I
