Mike 2 Report post Posted August 31, 2006 I'm on my way to work this morning, I slip in the Best of Judas Priest (Living after midnight) -- Oh yeah baby ... The Green Manalishi, Living After Midnight, Breaking The Law, Hot Rockin', Heading Out To The Highway - "live" at this point I'm pickin' and lickin' while runnin' the fret board of my air guitar right there on I-5 in rush hour traffic... I look over at a guy about my age in a suit and he's wondering what my problem is. I'll tell you what it is buddy, you grew up and I didn't! But I'm gettin' one hell-of-a better adrenaline rush here right now than you are with that double cappacino Starbucks foo-foo drink you got. Yeah, I love my metal in the mornin' -- that's for sure. I have always liked some metal music, I think it started with Deep Purple in the early 70's, then I found the more popular stuff of the time. It just was a matter of time before I would discover such greats Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, Thin Lizzy, Nazareth, Black Sabbath. In the 80's, I really enjoyed many bands like Judas Priest, Dokken, Guns n Roses, even Poison had some good stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Danielj 1 Report post Posted August 31, 2006 Can't stand very much of it. . . I can listen to Led Zeppelin's metal songs because they keep it interesting, AND I know they have another side. I'll also hear a song now and then that will spark my interst, but not usually. . . It's not for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Batman 2 Report post Posted August 31, 2006 I enjoy a good bit of metal, but I think it really went downhill when it became popularized in the 80's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLizard 1 Report post Posted August 31, 2006 I nominated "Breaking the Law" and "Run for the Hills" in a recent top 10. They didn't do very well. But I do love my vintage metal (except hair metal). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ombre Vivante 0 Report post Posted September 17, 2006 I like some of the bands typified by the sub-categories of "Thrash" Metal and "Speed" Metal - the kind of stuff you don't even need to headbang to in order to get whiplash. The early 80s still ruled the world musicwise. It all went downhill when Hair Bands took over, except for Guns 'N Roses (who were a Hard Rock band). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Batman 2 Report post Posted September 18, 2006 I used to love metal, but now I only take it in small doses. Also, you know what the most badass guitar solo ever is? The overdubbed solo on "Exciter" by Judas Priest! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
