Disappointing that a thread on The Corroseum about Cirith Ungol reforming should descend into petty bickering and negativity.
Not seen the likes of this since the (whisper it) great WASP debate/debacle of 2012 (or thereabouts).
I remember when this was all green fields...

Was it ever established if WASP were posers / false metal or not?

Apparently not

19 pages...

Yeah, that must be an internet record on that topic

The poll states otherwise.

No, both the poll and John are correct!

@Kit

Kit, you don't need to appologize. Would love to see more similar interferences in the future.

85% is bigger than 15%...

Yes, and what do this 85 % stand for?

It means W.A.S.P. were REAL RAW.

Yes, correct. Yet Avenger sez "the poll states otherwise".

That depends how you comprehend what IB was stating.

"Apparently not" meaning apparently it hasn't been established would be the correct way to interpret this for anyone that speaks English as a first language.

Either way, I feel WASP were an actual Metal band. They fell off slightly with the second record but even at their least heavy they were still leaps and bounds more metallic than shit like Poison and Bon Jovi which definitely isn't Metal.

Besides the couple of guys stating they aren't Metal in that original thread, those of us that based our opinion on the ear test rather then 80's media tabloids have a more substantiated foot to stand on.

The question msp asked was if WASP were posers / false metal or not, not if they were real metal or not.

Somebody post something about Ungol, quick.

Here so we get back on track with this thread

I have WAY more but here is a few including a testpressing for King of the Dead

South American misprint cover





Quiex translucent One Foot in Hell



Very few fully autographed things out there as Jerry did not like to sign stuff, this was to his parents

Great memorabilia. Thanks!
