Thank you.AxeCrazy wrote:I just can't get into Led Zeppelin. Sure, they have a few great songs, but the rest are average. There are plenty of other 70s bands that are much better, IMO.
I get shit all the time for "not understanding the genius of Zep".
I "understand" fine, some terrific songs spread throughout a catalogue of albums crammed with filler, rip offs of old blues songs and rip offs of contemporary bands too.
The "genius" of Zep?
Gimme the first ten Sabbath albums over them every time.

I read in a magazine yesterday that Slayer has won a Grammy award and that they were happy to be part of the music industryFucking Åmål wrote:JonahQuizz wrote:SlayerWhat?How someone can not love Show No Mercy at least.That is beyond to me...except if you don't like Speed/Thrash.
Anyway i always loved SLAYER mainly until ''Seasons In The Abyss''.Divine Intervetion is good but in my opinion the songs don't have so much meaning/little boring.
In my opinion SLAYER and SAVATAGE were the best US bands(created mostly by Non-Americans)

Found a photo


Great avatar Åmål, one hell of a record that is.
Long Live The Loud !!!

Couldn't sum it up better, StenThe Sentinel wrote:Show No Mercy, Haunting The Chapel and Hell Awaits are godlike and among the best metal records ever recorded. Reign In Blood is good but totally overrated and the rest is pure crap.

Good against Evil, Evil sure to win

I already said Lombardo and Araya could be considered "non Americans" but the Oliva brothers were born in America where do you drawl the line?Fucking Åmål wrote:Lombardo is from Cuba,Araya is from Chile.And the Oliva brothers are Italian.Abyss wrote:Eh?

not that I have anything against that, I still cannot decide whether this suits him or not, certainly it is a bow to the showbiz rules. I remember similar pic of 'tallica 16 years ago. *cringes at lastbigfootkit wrote:They all wore suits in the "Bloodline" video, i was disappointed KK hadn't customised his with nails & spikes, but it still looked pretty cool when the blood started pouring down on them.Noisenik wrote:shish ... was that Araya in a suite? Why doesn't he wear it onstage?
