Yes Jeff, you are dating yourself, as are the rest of us in this topic. Good memories, Rock ON!Reading back through this thread brings back memories...and not all good ones. Its been probably 20 years since I have listened to DRI or SOD and the 1st thing I thought of when I read the post about Christian Metal was Stryper, but I guess I'm dating myself a bit.
Yeah BongZILLA ! I likes me some Down , Clutch, Crowbar, High on Fire.I'm really into postmetal (Isis, Cult of Luna) and some sludge stoner doom rock metal(Sleep, Electric Wizard, Bongzilla).
Ive have also been a fan of Mastodon since Leviathan came out, been wearin out Crack the Skye.down,clutch,crowbar. thats some real mud right there! i love it!
Older stuff like Dio, Metallica (pre-Black), Iron Maiden, Megadeth, Rising Force, Ozzy etc. More modern includes Scar Symmetry, Disarmonia Mundi, Children of Bodom, Demon Hunter, Dream Theater, and so on. I prefer a little more melody rather than just the face-peeling, blistering, assault on your ears of some metal out there.
My current favorite song. Listen to the guitar and keyboard duel it out at the end.
Hey I am a long way from 40+ and I love FNM and have been a big fan since their epic days ... Just because you are younger doesn't mean you can't enjoy the Dio's, Black Sabbaths and FNM's of this world along with the newer bands of course and other Genres .
I would agree with that, if you spend enough time in the good ole USA eventually your english WILL get better!Max Cavalera's voice got better when he left Sepultura...I'm a big fan Soulfly's "Pain".
