Hiatus or not, Tomb Mold remain a rotation fave. How on earth do you blend so many styles of music into a death metal record? Jazz, prog…even synth pop. This is the soundtrack to a quantum physics experiment

After MFN, Imma celebrate the birthday of one of my fave records by a most fave band @WASPOfficial - the Last Command

Cover aside, this is what fun, dirty, sleazy shock LA metal sounded like in the 80s

@TheHunterCarnes @pb1505thfc

The Vikes’ D is so much fun to watch. The speed is insane. They should get the ticket dude at gate C4 to play QB and they might go far in the playoffs!

#MNFxESPN #BUFvsMIN

There’s doom. There’s heavy doom. Then there’s Crowbar doom

Every time I put this on the turntable, I am reminded of how good these guys are

@NigeSavage @turbokya

Much maligned n oft forgotten, the album that bridged glam Priest n one of the best records in metal history: Ram It Down

There are indeed a few fillers, but the title track, Hard as Iron, I am Rocker pack an incredible punch. I just hold Judas Priest to such a high standard

Thanks @MoKnowsMetal @NatesHiddenGems @NigeSavage @AnderschEric for reminding me of how killer Titans is. I still think they could have shed a couple of tunes and make it a super tight monster, but Testament still deliver bangers a quarter into the 21 century!

As @fckfmrocks reminded me yesterday, the fact that @deesnider Desperado album got shelved for so many years is a crime against hard rock music

No matter where you live on planet earth, if your college team is in the Basketball & Football top 10, you are a Bruin

@SSN_UCLANation

Q for thrash experts: what are your top 3 albums of the past 10 years? I am planning for another deep dive this week (if I have time). Mine are:

Power Trip - Nightmare Logic
Enforced - Kill Grid
Mortal Vision - Mind Manipulation

Hon mention Misfire

@NigeSavage @savagesheepy

The Last in Line remains my favorite Dio album. We Rock & I Speed at Night are RJD & Co at their absolute best. I always end up playing Side A twice when I put this record on

What a phenomenal frontman he was. RIP King

@KMANRIFFSMetal @NigeSavage

We throw around the term ‘underrated’ a lot. Some bands however were not just misjudged - they were royally screwed by labels. Here are 3 massive fkk-ups in my opinion. What are yours, JLoS?

Jetboy
Wildside
Cry Wolf

@TheHunterCarnes @pb1505thfc

Up early on Sunday to watch my team getting shredded by AC Milan. TV volume at 0 to keep house quiet but 🎧 are on and I am starting w/ a power speed dusty gem

Helstar - a Distant Thunder

Better than ☕️

@NigeSavage @savagesheepy @KMANRIFFSMetal

Sono proprio contento di essermi svegliato all 5:50 di domenica, mentre Ellertson e Traore sono rimasti a dormire

#GenoaMilan

Man - that was one of the hardest cardio workouts in forever. I’m also getting old 😞

Bringing cooldown energy to my 🎧 w/ Angel. This is for you @derkacz_mark

@TheHunterCarnes @80sGlamMetal1

Third strike:

Forbidden Evil is so fricken special. Anderson’s voice is perfect for the album’s pace. Chalice, Eyes, March are relentless thrash masterpieces. So glad I got to see them live back in the day

@NigeSavage @savagesheepy @KMANRIFFSMetal

2nd on deck

Death Angel - Frolic through the Park

How TF they managed to create this prog thrash beast at such a young age still baffles me. Not sure why the band is so down on it b/c it’s a trip! Im def’ly NOT bored

@NigeSavage @KMANRIFFSMetal

Woke up with Bay Area thrash nostalgia. Will start w/ one of the albums that sits in my top 20 all time, all genres:

Testament - the Legacy

Over the Wall, the Haunting, Burnt Offerings, Raging Waters - what an opening salvo

@NigeSavage @pb1505thfc

It’s dark and warm tonight. Mood is shifting and before getting around to the new @Konventband release, I am going to play one of the top DeathDoom records of the past decade

Nightfell - Darkness Evermore on @20buckspinlabel

Hauntingly heavy stuff

@NigeSavage @FaeryOfSatan

Not dissing my friends @LindaS72 @pb1505thfc @AndyLeRock but had @TailzOfficial been in CA instead of Wales in the 80s, they coulda gone 3x platinum. MTV would have LOVED them

Young & Crazy absolutely RIPS. She’z Too Hot is Talk Dirty to Me on steroids…and I am a Poison fan

You’ve been around since these hairspray n 💄 dudes or flannel sad faces were in diapers. You don’t give AF what A&R suits or charts demand. It’s 1990 and you deliver a SOLID BALL OF ROCK. You are named Saxon and you punch doubters in the throat
