Completely overlooked, underrated band right here. Play this one loud.

"Boo hoo, my band sucks..."

So I caught some of that Anvil documentary that has been hyped up all to hell on VH1 Classic. I probably watched about 20 minutes of it and the whole time that Lips clown and the halariously named Robb Reiner cried, bitched, and cried some more about how thier mediocre band never made it. Have you actually listened to the album Metal On Metal? The vocals suck...horribly. Sub par, mediocre, garbage. The end. You clowns suck. Stop crying, I hope you're happy, VH1 Classic hyped the fucking shit out of you hacks, so people will buy your shit now.

Why couldn't they do that for a band that deserves it like Bobby Liebling's Pentagram? Which has been alive in one form or another for nearly FORTY years. If you listen to the First Daze Here compilation made up of early 1970s Pentagram material you will hear songs that are just as good as any Blue Oyster Cult or Kiss song that was on the radio around the same time. Oh well, rant over.

Life's for my own to live my own way...

There's no denying that they picked some really good songs to cover for this, and did it well. Lots of old hardcore gets the new school Hatebreed treatment, as well as some cool old thrash. They even cover Crowbar and Obituary.

I don't take this shit that serious but, damnit, it's a good cause and a cool website put together by none other than Dee Snider.

(Stoner) metal up your ass...

Pickled herring sandwitch!

Stay away from Captain Howdy...

Why the hell not? I used to listen to this constantly when I was a little whippersnapper.

Running free...

I like all of Iron Maiden's singers. There, I said it.

Generals gathered in thier masses...

I think this is the only classic era Black Sabbath record I haven't posted yet, ironically it's my least favorite, yet still an essential awesome classic and EVERY self respecting metalhead should have it.

Coffin cheater...

Yall know what blog I got this from. Oh well, as always It's my own upload. I could not resist posying this missing link in the Scott Weinrich puzzle. I've never heard a band with that guy in it that I didn't like. The first five tracks are from a demo, and pretty good quality condicering, and have none other than Scott Wino Weinrich on vocals. The rest of the songs don't but some of them rock pretty hard too. The Wino songs are nice and Sabbathy and well, plain ol' evil and rockin'

Great song, borring video...

I felt like I should post something a little more...serious after that last video.

Speaks for itself...

Oh, those silly Norsemen. I actually kind of like black metal, but this made me laugh out loud.

And my lighter is held down by my thumb...

This is what stoner rock is all about. Totally classic, and not too far removed from what was going on in Seatle at the time but you could tell they were in the middle of the dessert just by listening to it. All the elements of a kick ass hard rock record are there, the blatant Black Sabbath influence, the gloriously distorted guitars, everything about it just lines up perfectly. I'd take this over Them Crooked Vultures any day, just sayin'...

AC/DC - Backtracks (2009)

Backtracks is a collection of rarities. Disc one is studio recordings, I think none of them have been released before exept for Big Gun, and disc 2 is random live recordings. Seeing as AC/DC is one of my favorite rock bands ever I couldn't resist.

See you in hell my friend...

I don't know much about this band other than it's the guy from Grim Reaper and it sounds like Whitesnake in parts. There's lots of old school metal and hard rock influence, it's nice and heavy one minute and then slow and the next, all in all a pretty cool hard rock record. Interesting fun fact, I found out about this band on Pandora Rado looking for bands similar to Beitthemeans, not that they sound anything alike, but I liked what I heard here.

Tool - Undertow (1993)

I guess you would call Tool alternative metal. Whatever it is, it's awesome. Tool never ceases to amaze and still put out trippy, kick ass cds to this day.

On the wings of life...

You would hardly be able to tell this was the band who put out albums like Thundersteel but It's great, I like the singer they found around this time. Sounds to me alot more like Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow, some really cool stuff going on here, kinda progressive, tons of cool guitar solos, old school style singer, it's got something for everyone. If you like classic sounding metal that is.

Sex drugs and rock and roll...

And why the hell not? Whitesnake legitamately rocks. There's no way around it, for over 30 years now, David Coverdale and co. have laid down the cock rock jams. Sometimes convincingly, sometimes cheesily, but always with hot chicks in thier videos and they have always stuck to thier guns. Even if that meant writing some cheesy and/or memorable pop/rock songs, but when they werent churning out rediculous power ballads like Here I Go Again they were rockin' the fuckin' place with songs like Still Of The Night and Crying In The Rain. Cheesiest thing I ever posted? Maybe. Am I ashamed? No way.
