years back i found a big metal collection in the garbage. A few days later more stuff was out and got wet. i dried out all the lp's and put them in a corner. After i was tired of looking at them i started to take them to local stores and sell em in lots on ebay. Before i did that i checked out all ...

Aaargh! Iceland is a metal hater! Some kind of finnish forest magic is needed to bring the bands here. Or perhaps a wormhole! Perkele

I know I'm not being very fair with this but I always saw the band as an inferior version of Sanctuary.

Here are a few more : WARNING (FRA) - I SAMSON - Shock Tactics KILLER (BEL) - Wall of Sound TRUST - Marche ou Crève MORE - Warhead KILLER (SWI) - Lady Killer Nice original choises. That belgian Killer especially is pretty good. I never understood the love for Samson though. They're ok for me but su...

How did I miss Thin Lizzy!? NO EXCUSE!

This is supposed to unearth unknown German metal bands with good albums released,so I don't think any comparison among the scenes is appropriate.I mean when you say UK scene is better than the German one and the other way around,it doesn't mean that you don't like one scene or the other.Needless to...

If not, we won't get the whole 80s covered till 2020.

The greatest scene of the 80s was the UK, what are you all on about? :lol: Yeah, for about the first 2 years if you aren't including the 70's.

Here's my top 15: ACCEPT : Breaker ARKANGEL : Arkangel BLACK SABBATH : Mob Rules BOW WOW : Hard Dog HOLOCAUST : The Nightcomers IRON MAIDEN : Killers LOUDNESS : Birthday Eve PICTURE : Heavy Metal ...

My list: Angel Witch - Angel Witch Accept - I'm A Rebel Black Sabbath - Heaven And Hell Brats, The: 1980 Cirith Ungol: Frost And Fire (if this one counts) Diamond Head - Lightning To The Nations Girl School - Demolition Iron Maiden - Iron Maiden Judas Priest - British Steel Motörhead - Ace Of Spades...

Tyrant - Valley Of Death. Damn this is powerful!

Nah, in my experience it happens with every singer that ever sung with any band on an album or during a period which is considered the band's strongest. I love Kimball's vocals, that's not the point, his work on the first 3 Omen LP's is immortal... but even back then, Omen pretty much all came down...

Well it happens when the singer has a very personal voice like Kimball did. The new song was Ok but nothing to write home about imo.
