They have never played my area either as far as I know. Would love to catch them live too.
Listening to Riot....The Privilege of Power. Wow. Power Metal....featuring the Tower of Power horns. Great, great band.
^ I think it is brilliant. It's, melodic, but fast and technical. Tony Moore has a wonderful voice.
Good Lord. They end the album with a cover of Race With The Devil on Spanish Highway.......ooooofffffff.
Well, if you're a Dio fan, you love it. That's the album with Jens Johansson on keys, too.
Killing the Dragon is my favorite of his post-80s albums. (I know LUTW is an official 1990 release, but "Wild One" was released as a single in '89.)
I actually just picked up "Killing The Dragon" recently and agree it is a good one. I like "Magica" a lot too.
NP: Riot.....Army of One........
I'm not sure it is really metal, but one of my favorites is In Extremo:
Listening to RIOT......Immortal Soul.
Amazing how this band changed styles with each lead singer. Tony Moore is awesome. The speed, power metal style gets tiresome after a while. Army of One sounds like an entirely different band. It's bluesy and groovie.
Vic, familiar with Warrior's 1985 record Fighting for the Earth? One of the best metal albums nobody talks about anymore.
I'll dial it up in Youtube.
NP: Warrior.......Only The Strong Survive
....
NP: Sleep..... Marijauna's Theme.......
So wutchoo think?NP: Warrior.......Only The Strong Survive
....
NP: Sleep..... Marijauna's Theme......
Didn't hear the whole album. Not bad. Not hair metal, not thrash metal. I guess it's power metal.
NP: The Botanist...........Sleep....
This is Master Of Reality on acid. I wanna grow my hair and grow a big droopy mustache and buy a Gibson SG.
Anyone know Katla, from Iceland? Been bingeing Móđurástin (2017) - doomy, foreboding, baroque, dark, excellent!

No, but I plan to check it out. Sounds right up my {dark} alley. Thanks for posting, Duncan!
NP: Trouble.........The Skull.
It's Black, meets Judas, meets Iron. But it's mostly Sabbath.
Trouble's a great band. Don't hear much Maiden in their sound, though.
Yeah I only thought of Maiden because of some harmony guitar leads in spots and they sound so British on those early albums. I'm going thru the whole discography. Their sound changed in the 90s. More straight, American style metal. Still pretty rocking stuff.
I had no clue of the story behind this epic

I don't like country music, but I don't mean to denigrate those who do. And for the people who like country music, denigrate means 'put down.'- Bob Newhart
NP: Trouble........Simple Mind Condition.
I'm digging this album a lot more than For Those Which Are Asleep by The Skull.
NP: Megadeth......The World Needs A Hero. Standout track .....Recipe For Hate. Brilliant!
