Long-time metal fan (I remember when Quiet Riot's Metal Health was on the mainstream top 10).

Enjoying the great Fediverse metal community, and exploring the bands and sub-genres I've missed over the years.

Currently dipping a bruised toe in the waters of death metal and black metal.

@derthomas Looks good.
Also looks like pasulj (in Serbian at least). Bean stew, ribs, carrot, potatoes, paprika, etc.

August 12th is National Vinyl Record Day (apparently) so I grabbed all the vinyl I could find in my house. It's not a lot. I used to have many crates full. But after many moves, I thinned the collection down to nearly nothing, as I do digital music mostly now (I have no turntable anymore either). But sometimes, I grab a couple. Bought the bottom row here recently. Odd I can't find my copy of Telekon. Pretty sure I still have that one somewhere. I hope so. And wow, I have two copies of Green Thoughts, one signed, one not. Check out that picture disc. I should get better photos of it eventually. It's rad.

@jake4480 I haven't thought about The Smithereens in years!

@TG_Esq@metalhead.club avatar

@jake4480 That's cool!
I only remember Blood and Roses getting much attention here in Australia.
I had to look up the song title, but I remember really liking the vocals and a powerful bass line.

If the prompt is , I offer today's earworm (inadvertently triggered by @Kitty).

Iron Maiden - title track from the album Powerslave.

(Thanks again to @neurothing at the console.)

Oh, I just found out that there's c/metal 👇

https://lemmy.world/c/metal

It is like r/metal but without the elitist gatekeeping. 🤘

@TG_Esq@metalhead.club avatar

@derthomas I haven't tried Lemmy yet (not that one). Can you join from a Mastodon type of server?

TG_Esq,
@TG_Esq@metalhead.club avatar

@derthomas Yes, that's what I was trying to say. I have about four Fediverse accounts so far, and I'm wondering how many more I need.

TG_Esq,
@TG_Esq@metalhead.club avatar

@derthomas
Thank you, that's good advice. Looks like I will have to set up an account there too. (Accöunt maybe?)

Hello, people!

This is about

It's quite more difficult than I thought.

To find an that is also a good song for me.

Well, melodic metal has a lot of these.

One that could be suitable is one from Edguy. And with a chorus that sticks in your head like duct tape.

Edguy - King Of Fools

@TheWarlock666 @neurothing @brian_gettler @Kay @derthomas @yourfutureex That's quite the trip. 😄
I don't dare click on the A Team theme. I know where that leads.

Late to the party, I know.

But how good is Blackbraid II?

@derthomas I was captivated from the first song. I won't have enough new music for an AOTY list, but this would be right up there if I did.

The band I am looking forward the most is Küenring. No joke.

What would be your favourite?

@TG_Esq@metalhead.club avatar

@derthomas I'd come back to Vienna for any excuse. Seeing Paradise Lost would be a great excuse.

Day two of having ‘Nothing but a Good Time’ by Poison stuck in my head. It must be almost the weekend

1.31 PM: @biggusmickus calls out for fans of Rotting Christ.

6.16 PM: @Kitty recommends Godflesh.

Another good Wednesday on Metalhead.club.

On Twitter I posted 18k times in 14 years. On Mastodon I’ve posted 3k times in 7 months. I guess I’m saying I like it here and also I’m sorry?

@TG_Esq@metalhead.club avatar

@HailsandAles
No need to apologise. (🎶🎸 "What else could I be? ...")
I'm having a better time here than ever in 13+ years on the other site. And I'm finding the pleasures in smaller communities, connecting over things that really matter to me. 🤘

TG_Esq,
@TG_Esq@metalhead.club avatar

@HailsandAles
In the case of metal, it's good to connect with other fans. It's been a pretty solitary pursuit for me in the decades since I listened to Maiden and Quiet Riot with my school mate Kevin.

@TG_Esq@metalhead.club avatar

@HailsandAles Metal fans in the wild - I feel like this is where I insert a variation on the "black metal bands in Scandinavian forests" memes.

, some fantastic black metal. Two albums out, indiginous one man band. Check it out.

@sharan So good. I first heard of it when @Kitty recommended II last week, and it's been on rotation since.

@derthomas Ah yes, I'm very familiar with the how many months are we going away for? question from wekend trips to the MIL (100 kms from home) - when packing the car.

The opener to my upcoming album, Salvation, this is "Death Cult", a 190bpm flamethrower of bile and spite toward organized religion.

Thanks for the tag! There's some intense catharsis right there, looking forward to hearing it with its dark siblings.
