Aerosmith permanent vacation

Obituary - 'The End Complete'

Lost Horizon - 'A Flame to the Ground Beneath'

..To anyone who hasn't listened to this band yet, please, DO SO!! DEFINITELY one of the more underrated bands of the genre(..by far imo...Daniel has a voice of pure f*cking steel! but even the lyrics are awesome[and quite empowering!]).

I started with the two albums I was most interested in which were Painkiller and Sad Wings of Destiny. Since then though I've been working my way through their stuff in order.

Adam, you're in for a treat. Whilst there's certainly some filler over their discography, they cover everything from heavy prog to trad metal, to as you've recently found out, power. And made some of the most memorable albums I've ever heard. Beyond The Realms, off Stained Class, still gives me goose bumps Big smile

I must admit that Point of Entry was the first one of theirs that was disappointing at first listen. It usually takes me a few listens to find an appreciation for older albums in particular (I reckon I'm spoiled by modern production values) but I've rated everything up until that point with at least 3.5 stars and Stained Class and British Steel in particular really stood out.

Painkiller though, I loved that one right away. Though I have a bit of an addiction to the song Running Wild from Killing Machine at the moment as well.

Anyway, I just finished this one up (for the second time today):

And a fine album it is.

British Steel was actually the first album that I purchased with my own money. I had a handful of albums that I had previously received as gifts, but this was the first one that I actually went out and bought.

You do have me beat. Smile

If my memory serves me right, Killing Machine is the equivalent of Hell Bent For Leather here in the states.

I've been a fan of Priest since before you were born. LOL

Man I am getting old. Anyhow, it goes back to a time when MTV actually played music videos on a regular basis and I saw the video for "Breaking the Law". The video itself was kind of corny (as were many) with the band riding around in the back of a convertible performing the song, but man I really liked the song. I bought a vinyl copy of British Steel and eventually got everything from them. Defenders of the Faith and Screaming for Vengeance were both really huge on the radio and MTV, at least in these parts and really cemented my love of the band. They were definitely my favorite band for quite some time before I moved on to Metallica and then Rush.
