No problem man, its always nice to share some bands with people who truly appreciate traditional heavy metal, not much people these days as many people may think.
Here a couple of song of a couple of not-so-well-known heavy metal bands(mostly traditional/speed metal) from around the world:
This last 2 are more contemporary/new traditional metal bands, Cobra from Peru, Enforcer from Sweden:
I almost forgot this one: Uncle Acid and The Deadbeats, doom rock/metal, if you liked Sabbath Bloody Sabbath there is a chance you´ll like these english guys:
So I have created this topic to talk about Tank cause I read Tank is going to put out a new album this year, I was impressed taking in account that the band was in a hiatus since 2004 album "Still At War" due to Algy Ward(bass player, vocals, founding member of the band) illness that make him unable to record and perform live, due to this the band replace him with Doogie White(Yngwie J. Malmsteen, Rainbow, Pink Cream 69) for live perfomances and even recorded an album in 2010(War Machine), I thought this was just a momentary thing since Algy is the voice, mastermind and soul of Tank, and the right thing was to wait til he get better, but in the end Algy didn´t get better and the rest of the band continue without him, now this is not like Judas Priest case, when, even if I didn't like the stuff with Ripper, it was a project made with 4/5 of a classic Judas Priest line-up, but this does'nt even have a half of Tank classic lineup, not even original band members, plus this version of the band don't have the blessings and approval of Algy, who actually is the owner of the the intelectual property, name and logo of the band, so..I think you see my point, also Algy is putting out a new album, Sturmpanzer, that for my personal taste sounds more like the original Tank than this new Tank, here is a sample:
Judas Priest - Sad Wings of Destiny
Inepsy - RnR Babylon (R.I.P. this awesome punk rock act)
Whiplash - Power and Pain
Midnight - Satanic Royalty
Avenger- Blood Sports
The main reason pepople call this thrash is maybe cause it reallly have a strong thrash metal sound, the death metal thing, well that thing is relative, I mean the song black metal from Venom is dopes not sound exactly like ehat most people think today as black metal(ex: old Darkthrone,Mayhem, Abruptum, Conqueror, 1349, Watain,etc ), plus for me at least calling something doesn't make it that something, at least for me death metal began with Possessed and Death, there also this problem about "what makes a musical genre that genre?" some prime the lyrical content, other a particular sound, for example death metal have a aprticular sound, a particular kind of drumming, riffs and type of vocals, also the lyrics may vary, bot in essence are about death, suffering, serial killers, murdering, rotting stuff/bodies, and the irony and humour of the mortal nature of men, vikings, battles, anti-religion and philosphical are also popular, but these lates are also popular in black metal lately, so...you see my point??musically speaking Power From Hell have many elements form thrash: drumming, fast pace, palm mutting,etc, also have punkish vocals(the band began as an hardcore punk act I think), so to some extent it's actually kinda difficult to classify, Imean, Metallica use to call themselves a power metal act in the first days isn't it? I tend to classify music to what it sounds to my ears, but I can understand why other people would call this death metal, all in all the lyrics of the album are kinda death metal plus it have that raw vibe of early death metal albums, in the end this came uot in the middle of the 80's when heavy metal sub genres were still undefined, and to some people this was for the best, seriously sometimes I have heard really bad or stupid discussions between metalheads just because some call this band death metal or black metal, hell, there were bands that even played a type of music that had 3 types of subgenres of metal in it, if it is a messured discussion just for the sake of fun, I'm ok, but when people made fucking wars of it between metalheads, it just became silly, may Fenriz got it right about that particular matter.
Now some albums that were called thrash that were almost on the verge of being death metal are Sepultura Bestial Devastation and Vulcano Bloody Vengeance, the first one never called themselves death metal band, the second one it is a really good example of a band that had a song called death metal and actually sound like death metal(at least more than Onslaught I think).
P.S.: Hi to all, maybe no one remembered me form before, I was the peruvian guy who posted here till 2008 I think, anyway, I have comeback(I stopped due to college stuff and other personal shit) so I wish I could post here on a more regular basis.

Wow, just...wow, I mean I'm not a hardcore fan of the genre, I just like a cople of bands,just in case I didn't left that clear, but anyway I actually never listened to that particulary song, I guess cause what I have listened from Tigertailz was just a couple of songs some friend of mine pass me, like a sort of "compilation", I guess he omited the ballads knowing I'm not a big fan,oh now I'm so gonna beat up that motherfucker for this hahaha, plus I actually never seen a video of them, I'm not a music video person THAT much(I stick more to listen the music)and now....well, maybe I was wrong about Tigetailz being sleaze, maybe because I didn't seen the whole picture, just a frame, but I stick it to the other bands, I still like Dangerous Toys, Ski Row, and early Motley Crue, If I have to make a proportion of type of music I listen: 80%metal(heavy,thrash,death,black,etc), 15%hardcore/crust punk, 5% miscelaneous(sleaze rock, hard rock, salsa, boleros,etc).
Dude,you actually like this band? LOMFL! You call this "sleaze rock"?? It shouldn't be called "sleaze" it should be called "jeezze" as in "jeeze this band sucks so bad"! lol! Call it what ever you want to,this shit ain't dirty street drinkin' rock its commercial made for MTV glam pussy rock for teen age girls and aceroperuano! LOL!!!! Lovebomb baby! lol!!

To be completely honest I used to think the same way,I used to put bands like Bon Jovi and Dangerous Toys in the same bag/label(glam/pussy rock bands), but then I said to myself: how bad they can be? I give 'em a listen, some of them were popy crap but some others actually has an edgy sound(Skid Row, early Motley Crue, Tigertailz and Dangerous Toys), most of the bands labelled as sleaze rock were bands doing a more edgy and less panzy hard rock, they had some ballads but the edgy sound was predominant and the lyrics were more about street/drinking life than lovey dovey crap, in contrast with the Cinderella, Poison and Bon Jovi crap glam/teen girl music, that's why I like the sleaze rock bands I listen,I have no mixed feeling with othrer more extre music I listenI mean I have no problem listen Dangerous Toys's "Hellacious Acres" and then later give a listen to Deströyer 666 "Phoenix Rising" or Vomitor's "Bleeding The Priest", matter of tastes I guess.
Oh, by the way, as curious data the Dangerous Toys vocalist was also vocalist of the technical thrash metal band Watchtower, plus the guy is also a big Priest fan, this is an ecerpt form an interview:
FIB MUSIC: I was privileged to catch a performance of Sad Wings, your Judas Priest tribute band, at a show in Dallas. You guys seemed to have a lot of fun with that. What's it like to do that project?
JM: I love Priest. I have toured with Priest, I can die a happy man being able to say that. The Sad Wings gig is just alot of fun, me and some friends came up with the idea to form the tribute after seeing a few tributes around the Texas area having so much fun, it was a no brainer that we needed a Priest tribute in Austin. There is one in Dallas as you know called Judas Rising, they have been real cool and we are playing with them June 20th in Dallas.

I'm not upset or else, just making the point that many times people call crappy "metal" bands that actually are not metal at all, calling them crappy for something they never intendend to sound like(Metal), for example LA Guns, for me is one good sleaze rock band(sleaze rock is an actual music genre,ex: Dangerous Toys, G n' R, Nasty Idols,Every Mother's Nightmare, Skid Row,etc) , of course if you put hem the label of metal someone could say:"that's metal???!! if it is, then is crappy metal!!", you see what am talking about??, on the other side I find this thread kinda fun, If people want to put band that aren't metal but are related in some sort of way to the genre, that's ok to me, sorry for my comments but I think a little of controversy is good to put some spice in topics haha.
PD: I find Tokyo Blade pretty metal to me, their firstwo albums are vey NWOBHM-esque, their later work, of course, slowly became more comercial hard rock/glam metal/glam rock oriented, like Saxon or Celtic Frost have done once in their careers.
My favorite Priest album is Screaming For Vengeance, but if is about the best Heavy Metal album of all times, this must be one and only one, their finest moment, their meanier, metalliest, faster, unmercyfullest album of all:
Well,I don't think this is a classic "heavy metal" album but it sure as hell is a classic death/thrash metal album,thats for sure.
I got this album in 1990 I think,just before Arise was released in 91' or so but hell yeah this is a great album.

There's something I don't understand here, this thread is for crappiest METAL album, but many here has post albums that have nothing to do with metal, many are hard rock or glam rock bands, just for the record glam metal does not exist, made up of media to sell glam bands as metal cause metal use to sell in the old days, but basically they are hard rock bands, there are many crappy albums in metal, that are actually metal and....well, are crappy: for example Tygers of Pang Tang "The Cage" bland generic heavy metal, or Tokyo Blade "Blackhearts and Jaded Spades" repetititive boring album, also we have Kreator's 90's alternative metal crap albums, Testament "The Ritual", slow down groovy alternative thrash metal?? no f***ing way!!, Celtic Frost popy "Cold Lake"....and the list goes on. Edited at: Tuesday, May 04, 2010 1:33:30 AM
I like First Half of POE, and Desert Plains song, about Turbo, well probably my less favorite album of the band after Rocka Rolla(solid hards rock, but I'm fan of Priest most for the Metal era), just a couple of good songs, out in the cold, turbo lover and rock you around all the world....yeah, I actually like that song...a lot!! blame me but is catchy!!ha!!.

High Spirits is recent band I particulary like, the voice isn't "wow!" but is pretty decent for a demo, anyway I think is enough classic metal innfluenced to put a couple of song here:
About the topic: I actually agree about golden age of Heavy Metal being completely gone, the passion for classic Heavy Metal(Saxon, Diamond Head, Judas Priest,etc) will be dramatically reduced, most kids today are or into death/gore/black metal or trendy mallcore and crapcore, that can't be changed, kids always want the louder and noisier music, even if is crap music(mallcore), and old classic metal bands dissapearing is not helping, and as any kind of music, Is not gonna actually disappear, just reduced the amount of listeners, I hardly believe that a new band will appear and gonna be as great as the traditional metal giants, so we must accept that Heavy Metal will become a more dark and underground movement that it is right now, I can live with that, for me this was never about belonging to a larger group or a trend, it just will be more difficult to find metalheads, true metalheads, in the future.
PD: hey J.D., that's one great speed metal album I tell ya, Exciter has always been an amazing speed metal trio, and talking about metal trios, have you ever listened Warfare??, great britsh punkish metal vibe:
Aw, man, there are actually a shitload of bands rthat try and many times succed at sounding like classic oldschool heavy metal bands,if they don't get media exposure, too bad, but metal is not a fucking mainstream music listeners, is for fucking metalheads!!! you want classic heavy metal sound bands?? search it!! or made your own classic metal sound band for fucksake!!probably the amount of real metalheads who enjoy oldschool metal will decrease, but real metalheads will survive, plus, I give you guys a tip: try search bands from outside!!! like Europe and South America scenes!!! most metal bands from USA, no offense, are Pantera/Machine Head/Slikpnot/Hatebreed worshippers and metalcore trendy bands, when in Europe and South America are most influenced by are Judas Priest, Saxon, Warfare, old Slayer, Celtic Frost,Razor,Voivod, Anvil, Sarcofago, Pestilence, Vio-Lence, Violent Force, Bolthrower, old Mayhem and so kind of bands, also Canadian scene is a good choice,oh and some times there are actually good USA metal band hardcore influenced by oldschool heavy metal, anyway, this are some classic heavy metal/NWOBHM influenced bands:
from Mexico:

from Canada:

from USA:
http://www.myspace.com/highspiritsrock

There are more but I'm too lazy to put them now, maybe later.
Maybe any of these bands are great as the classics but at least they are trying to preserve classic heavy metal, and that cvounts for something, I guess.
And don't even make begin with oldschool thrash metal sound new bands, because that ones are in big ass amounts. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by J.D. DIAMOND from Sunday, April 25, 2010 8:00:24 PM)

Heavy metal will die out like a smoldering fire and the fire is almost out already,and its because of there are not enough bands that want to carry on the traditional heavy metal aesthetics and most importantly the british style heavy metal sound,with "quality" song writting,there are simply just not enough bands that are willing to take it that far with heavy metal. When these godfathers of heavy metal retire I won't be buying anything new of heavy metal anymore,maybe a band or 2 but they will be far into the underground and obscurity for anyone to notice ect...
And as you wrote: Will I miss Priest and the other bands you mentioned? Of course I will,but I won't let it keep me from enjoying music.
When they retire I will enjoy the metal I already have,I don't need to listen to "nu" corporate watered down commercial rock like the terrible Disturbed..."sorry spa and Victoria" HA!

I think those bands mentioned are quite heavy and I've already embraced the changes to metal. I don't
like everything out there but I didn't back in the day either. Everything changes, you can choose to roll with it or you can stay stuck in a rut. The great thing is that we all have the right to decide. When I say
(you) I mean everyone not you particularly. And, quite honestly, I enjoy many styles of music now not
just metal so it's easier for me to move on. Will I miss Priest and the other bands you mentioned? Of
course I will, but I won't let it keep me from enjoying music. I'm glad you disagree sometimes, it makes
for good discussions. It also gives me the opportunity to re-examine what I post and think it through.

I couldn't "disagree" with you more here if I tried my hardest Bured. That is absolutely "untrue". Nobody in the realm of heavy metal wants "originality" to the point of crossing over the line leaving the heavy metal ballpark.They want "heavy metal" not alternative commercialism.You don't have to like them but look at old Running Wild,old early 90's Iced Earth.....when they were released people got into them,not complaining that they "sound too British -like"...they embraced it because it reminded them of old Iron Maiden,Judas Priest,Saxon..ect.... if you take that image & sound away too far,its not "heavy metal" anymore.
Disturbed,Godsmack,System Of A Down are not "heavy metal" they are an alternative hard-rock-nu commercialism,not "metal" they are far from being "metal". Trust me when Priest,Saxon,Black Sabbath,Dio,King Diamond,Exciter and even Maiden retire and there are no more bands to take thier place,you will be the first one bitching about how there are no bands taking the torch of british styled heavy metal. Watch.

I like J.D. so I hope he doesn't take this as a shot at him. If today's bands tried to copy

there is no originality anymore. I think a lot of (us) older fans are resistant to change and
fail to give today's music a chance because of it. Do you remember when we were young
and the older folks were asking "WTF are you listening to?" "All they do is scream and (twang)
on those damn guitars." All the while you were wryly grinning saying to yourself "You don't
have a clue." Well the tides have changed and now were the ones asking "WTF are you listening to?"
I've always tried to not get stuck in a rut like that. I enjoy alot of today's bands. I could do without
most of the (growl) thing but no-one is going to like everything. I love bands like Disturbed, Godsmack,Slipknot, System... and others. I think as long as we have angry youth we'll have heavy music albeit
different than what were used to. I'm glad music is ever evolving. This is just my opinion. It only
matters to me. I'm not trying to change anyone, I'm just trying to provoke thought. Peace!
Wow! I haven't post in this forum for...what?? eons?? anyway I will gonna say that ST. Anger is probably the worst crap that tried to call himself metal album,justr fucking crap, that tin can drum!!! fucking hideous!! another crappy album is Annihilator's "Annihilator Metal", the vocalist ruins what it could be a kinda decent metal album, he turn it into a big amount of human feces.
Man, Louder than Hell was the first album of Manowar I ever listened, I'm still amazed today that this album was recorded in 1996!!! this was a year for grunge, first glances of nu metal, and the underground success of black an death metal, and yet we have this album, pure classic Heavy Metal ownage, I must tell that this is also probably the best album to lift some weight!!! hahaha, you just have to keep excersising till you die when you listen Eric Adams singing: "...Time To Burn!!!!...Losers Better Learn....." , one of my all time favs.

The mighty "CRANIUM":
Anybody?? this band is from Sweden,said that many things related to quality metal comes to my head, in the 90's were all people were too much occupied doing alternative rock and grunge stuff, while in metal scene, decayed it was the few warriors left were doing black or death metal this guys dare to do the unthinkable: making assraping satanic speed metal in a time ruled by Pearl Jam and Cobain cock suckers(not Nirvana, all in all have some kinda respectable stuff, I just fucking hate the fucking Jesuchrist Superstar status of Cobain), a joke band?maybe but in the end I don't think so, too humorous for his owns sake?? you guess, but you can't deny this guys were doing a speed metal war against synth pop and disco music and doing metal with passion, balls,aggression and a bloodthirst for posers blood haven't seen since Sheepdog McLaren Razor's era; I can't stop recomending his 3 albums: Speed Metal Satan, Speed Metal Slaughter, and Speed Metal Sentence, while the first is a more raw approach to what we call today black thrash, the other 2 albums only can be described satanic speed metal with annoying yet enjoyable(a contradiction I know but even it works like that) vokills, 3 pieces of fierce demonic speed metal assault to your ears, defenders of steel in an era when nobody gived a damn for speed metal.
Not your classic Heavy Metal band, or album whatsoever, but this album is a cornerstone in what black metal represents and is all about, is a minimalistic, raw, dark,evil,cold, simple yet effective in projecting malificense, uncountable copycats norwegian black metal bands tried to emulate this sound and to capture his aura, almost all failed, today the bands is oriented into a more black/punk metal sound, a crust/speed satanic and rock and roll oriented metal if you prefere, what is still of my like.

J.D. DIAMOND: thanks for the words man, really, thanks, I always thought of the image as important to heavy metal, not as much as the music of course, but important, is like the visual materialization of all what it means the heavy metal attitude, headbangers without his uniform is like an indian warrior withouth his warpaint and decorative feather crowns, it represents something ,a part of your identity, for metalheads as metalheads,maintain the image!! maintain the spirit, maintain the attitude!! maintain the music!!! maintain real Heavy Metal!!!

Yeah, I know, the color is pretty gay, but I'm gonna see freaking Iron Maiden!!!! first time in my live!!! and that's the only thing that matters, I hope I'll see Judas Priest this or the next year.
J.D. DIAMOND: totally man but i'll be a little difficult with the little space I have in my vest, anyway I'll find a way to put more stud on it, studs are fucking fierce!!!.
Heavy Metal Maniac: hahha who don't I think I'm totally put the Imperial insignia in the front, up my Violator patch.
Hellrider :Of course man, more studs are mandatory but about Judas Priest patchs, I haven't seem decent ones, just simple plain little logos, I'm still searching better Priest patches to add on my vest.
mgdman: thanks man I still remember when becuase of tradtions here went I was admitted in College I was completely shaved on my head, dam man I was looking like a skinhead or the bastard fat son of Rob Halford hahaha, that was 3 years ago.
PD: METALMANJP Rob Halford figure fucking rocks!!!! in fact I want it, but the cost of shipment are very high to Peru, maybe I'll ask as my birthday/christmas present haha.
Totally man, problably I'm gonna buy some next week, I'm trying to put on the shouders, the line that separated the Motörhead patch from all the upper patchs, I gonna fill it it with studs also, what I'm still searching is half spheric studs, you know the ones that Bruce Dicikinson use in his bracelets in thew run to the hills video.
By the way, talking about Bruce I'm seeing freaking Iron Maiden this March 26!!!!! first line none the less man!!! damn, it run out of first line tickets in 4 days man!!! in fact it went run out of first line tickets in the same same day the selling started( a saturday), but the greedy bastard of the head of the organization fo the event expanded the number of tickets(on sunday), that's when i bought mi ticket, but it was not enough money for him so he expanded the number of tickets untill tuesday!!.

TOXIC HOLOCAUST - OVERDOSE OF DEATH, Nostradamus for me was a kinda regular JP album, 2005 AoR kick his ass(what a sexy album is AoR indeed), Deatn Magnetic for me is a joke, its trying so hard to sound oldschool but fails because of the still strong St.Anger/Re-L/Load influence, Helstar also bring back us some really speed/american power metal of quality with his The King of Hell, but I still prefere OOD because is just the perfect beend of satanic speed/thrash metal with a good dosis of demoniac hardcore punk, never listened something so good on that ways since Bathory or Venom, for me the total winner of the year.

British Steel.....classic as f*ck.....
My classic heavy metal album of the day is from a band that is not from the 80's or can be asume as a classic one, is a japanese one, is called Metalucifer and the album is Heavy Metal Drill:
Oh by the way, talking about classic heavy metal, I put a threat about new bands that made classic styled heavy metal, since it haven't many success I put it here so people can know this amazing bands:
YOU THOUGHT CLASSIC HEAVY METAL WAS DEAD??....YOU THOUGHT WRONG.....B*TCH!!!!!
harsh words?? no, If you thought classic heavy metal was dead you deserve it(well, maybe not haha...whatever), now let me show you some new bands that plays oldschool classic heavy metal, no thrash(I know manny new bands but I think you won't be interested...but if you want, feel free to ask haha),death, black, or european power flower metal, no this is old heavy classic baddass metal bands, in the vein of Juda Priest, Iron Maiden, NWOBHM bands or just speed/heavy/ power USA metal, let me introduce some of them:
- A Mexican heavy metal band, they play particulary amazing oldschool heavy metal:
http://www.myspace.com/voltax
-Finland speed heavy metal band:
http://www.myspace.com/speedtrapmetal
I'm particulary proud of this band, is from my country, I kinda know ths guys personally and believe me, they love old school classic heavy metal with passion, ,in their words they play "rock metal", lately they have a little speed metal aproximation, this they are:
http://www.myspace.com/cobraperu
-Japanese heavy metal band:
http://www.myspace.com/hellhoundjapanofficial
-A metallic AC/DC would be good definiton for this band:http://www.myspace.com/bulletsweden
The next bands have the particular characterist of being alternate projects of some famous members of famous metal bands in the undeground and extreme metal scene:
-Metalucifer is the side project of Gezol from Sabbat, a band that has been called the" japanese Venom", I particulary enjoy this one, playing some classic NWOBHM oriented heavy metal: http://www.myspace.com/metaluciferfansite
-Chrome Division is the side projext of Shagrath from symphonic black metal band Dimmu Borgir, here he does not play vocals but the guitar it can be called a heavy 'n roll act, or hardcorish heavy metal, also very influenced by Motörhead, if you want a band that sing about girls, booze, cigars, motorcycles, the road, an that little evil red guy, this is it:
-http://www.myspace.com/chromedivision
-Armour is a side project of from the front man of thewse black metal acts Blasphemous Evil, Blutrache (Fin), Satanic Warmaster, Gestapo 666, Horna, Incriminated, Kyprian's Circle, Mental Terror, Pest (Fin), Shatargat, The True Werwolf, Vomitfago, Warloghe, Krieg, here with the nickname of Vince Venom, in his own words"If Udo Dirkschneider and Blackie Lawless would have a bastard son, his name would be Vince Venom.":

Probably, I'll try my luck on the classic heavy metal album of the day threat, I hope to see at least a comment about at least one of the bands, they are full of talent.
[aceroperuano] Friday, October 17, 2008 9:28:21 PM
Probably you would be right...if is not for the fact that it was the first thing I did, I actually search it, but I didn't find it, probably I have done a bad search, but at least I don't see any threat with a similiar topic of this one, sorry if making new threats but I thought that new bands making oldschool heavy metal was something that matters, anyway if such threat already exist, please indicate me where it is, so I can post this there.

YOU THOUGHT CLASSIC HEAVY METAL WAS DEAD??....YOU THOUGHT WRONG.....B*TCH!!!!!
harsh words?? no, If you thought classic heavy metal was dead you deserve it, now let me show you some new bands that plays oldschool classic heavy metal, no thrash(I know manny new bands but I think you won't be interested),death, black, or european power flower metal, no this is old heavy classic baddass metal bands, in the vein of Juda Priest, Iron Maiden, NWOBHM bands or just speed/heavy/ power USA metal, let me introduce some of them:
-Mexican heavy metal band:
http://www.myspace.com/voltax
-Finland speed heavy metal band:
http://www.myspace.com/speedtrapmetal
I'm particulary proud of this band, is from my country, I kinda know ths guys personally and believe me, they love old school classic heavy metal with passion, ,in their words they play "rock metal", lately they have a little speed metal aproximation, this they are:
http://www.myspace.com/cobraperu
-Japanese heavy metal band:
http://www.myspace.com/hellhoundjapanofficial
-A metallic AC/DC would be good definiton for this band: http://www.myspace.com/bulletsweden
These bands now have the particular characterist of being alternate projects of some famous members of famous metal bands in the undeground and extreme metal scene:
-Metalucifer is the side project of Gezol from Sabbat, a band that has been called the" japanese Venom", I particulary enjoy this one, playing some classic NWOBHM oriented heavy metal: http://www.myspace.com/metaluciferfansite
-Chrome Division is the side projext of Shagrath from symphonic black metal band Dimmu Borgir, here he does not play vocals but the guitar it can be called a heavy 'n roll act, or hardcorish heavy metal, also very influenced by Motörhead, if you want a band that sing about girls, booze, cigars, motorcycles, the road, an that little evil red guy, this is it:
-http://www.myspace.com/chromedivision
-Armour is a side project of from the front man of thewse black metal acts Blasphemous Evil, Blutrache (Fin), Satanic Warmaster, Gestapo 666, Horna, Incriminated, Kyprian's Circle, Mental Terror, Pest (Fin), Shatargat, The True Werwolf, Vomitfago, Warloghe, Krieg, here he is himself with the nickname of Vince Venom, in his own words"If Udo Dirkschneider and Blackie Lawless would have a bastard son, his name would be Vince Venom.":

Don't wanna be an fun spoiler, but QOTSA is not metal(but are one hell of a band), is stoner rock, but at least his vocalist has been on Kyuss as guitarrist, the fathers of stoner metal.

Awesome studs and spikes Hellrider, thanks for the info, I would like those circular studs, like the ones Metal Maniac have on the back of his vest, that are killers, I would like also a bullet belt but it seems that they don't deliver those to foreign countries, and its so hard to find one here in Peru, damn, really bad luck I guess.
[aceroperuano] Wednesday, September 10, 2008 1:19:02 AM
Holy crap man, that have written "HEAVY METAL BADASS" all on it, I'm still searching for studs and more patches for my denim vest, in a non distant future I will post some pictures.

White bread, sauce, sweet pickles, mustard, and a little tip of mayonaise, that's my current favorite night sandwich, with a glass of "chicha morada"(purple maiz/corn traditional peruvian sweet bebrage), I can't ask more than that.

I just end to listen it, not really impressed, I mean it looks like they forced his sound to sound like oldschool but failed in the half, it feels...forced....sounds like a blend of master of puppets, st.anger, load and the black album, with touches of ...and justice for all, but it fails to have any of the particular sound of any of those albums, songs are too long for my taste, none of them are less than 6 minutes!!, and the instrumental song...what's that for?? I mena is a boring instrumental, none innovation, boring, lack of feeling, I give this album a 6/10 just because is a poorely return to his former glory and because it is the best Metallica has gave us all in years, this is a no shame nor glory return, maybe for the next album.
[aceroperuano] Tuesday, August 26, 2008 3:47:54 PM
God no, I like some tunes of that album but I prefere the old tunes,If they play an entire gig only with Nostradamus songs I would end kinda bored, sorry but I don't like much this new album, Angel of Retribution FTW hahaha.
Seen Joey Belladonna from Anthrax live!! the pal signed my ticket and my denim vest, too bad I didn't bring a camera, neeeeh!, was f***king great anyway, oh yeah!! also Sodom is coming to my country!! f***king unbelievable!!ahrrgg!!!!I I'm gonna see Sodom!! argghhgegsds!!!!!! ...ah....If I see Judas Priest, Iron Maiden,Saxon, Tank, Grim Reaper, Slayer, Metallica,(I have seen Megadeth), Overkill, Testament,Protector,King Diamond,DRI,Sarcofago,Toxic Holocaust, Municipal Waste and Nocturnal also I could die happy.
I know I have posted this in other theme but i feel I have to do it here too:
I want to make things clear, I adore Judas Priest, I live for Judas, I even constantly sware over the symbolic image of Rob leather pants or studed leather jacket(I actually do!), but.......but I really don't like this album, and I think that being a Judas Priest doesn't mean that i should be bland at the hour of critisize his work, or praise every new album they get out like is a new painkiller or stained class, so this is it: this is not a good Judas Priest album, why?? lets see, Rob: great vocals, Glen and KK: awesome guitar player, Ian hill: he do a good work, Scott Travis: excellent drums man, so why this is a bad album?? because almost 90% of the song are midpaced, kinda low tune, a profuse use of synth(cut it out!), I mean a little is right but for godsake this is Judas Priest!! heavy metal in its purest form!! and I wanted like that, this album have a bland sound and not Priest sound, it haves its moments(War, Visions,etc) but I think this is the "hey guys! lets make experimental/conceptual music just for the fun" album,this should be a one disc album, cause were many fillers songs this time, what amaze coming from a band like Priest.
I think this was unavoidable, they have to make and experimental album so they could grow musically and see what it fits really with Judas Priest music and style, I give this album a 6.5 on a 10 scale, and believes me, it hurts me to gave that pointage, I only hope next album would be better.
So this is it, now you can stone me to death for been a Judas Priest heretic, but at least I know that I feel better(or worse, depend how you see it) for writting these here...this is my katarsis.

It should be, cause bands like Bathory, Venom, Death, Obituary, Cannibal Corpse, Slayer, Sarcofago,Sepultura, Morbid Angel,etc would never be in a Rock Hall of Fame, but they deserve recognition because of their contribution to the Heavy Metal genre,that is a musical genre with a lot of adepts and history.

RUST IN PEACE, his best album highest peak in all their career, since Countdown to Extinction(last really good work) I think they have been falling, only United Abominations I like since then.
[aceroperuano] Wednesday, June 25, 2008 2:40:18 AM
Vynil, even when I come from the CD/MP3/DVD era I prefere Vynil because of the sound,the feeling it transmit to me, also because it looks kinda cool and because of the covers of the albums, some of them looks like pictures to be framed and put on the wall of your room or any room of the house,are more personal.

Thanks,J.D., I really love my PFH t-shirt, one of the really few things I love from my country, quality metal bands t-shirts, the guy who sells to me its a friend of my, and I have another friend who made me a D.R.I and a Violator r-shirts. Wow!!, 15?that's awesome, I wish I could listen that abum at that age, 1985 indeed is a great year for metal, I just bough that The Force Vynil, the last year, I was 19, personally I like better the "The Force" album, in PFH sound a little Venom worship(believe me, its nothing wrong with that haha), I think they found his true sound in "The Force", Metal Forces and Flame of The Antichrist rocks!!Onslaught owns!!, so what do yu think about the Killing Peace album?? I think its a little modern thrash, but its kinda ok...I think.
