    Appetite For Destruction is brilliant. Guitar solo on You're Crazy fucking murders! Divine Intervention is amazing, darkest lyrics they done. Astounding. Haven't bothered with the Kerry King album. Early Prodigy stuff was excellent, remember many a mangled night on dancefloors with them on at massive volume. That Entombed is excellent. Parasight is brilliant.

    Dance of Death is a great album, except for that horrendous CGI artwork!! Anyone who even dabbled with 3D Modelling back then will recognize these aweful 3D models, and the whole thing (the artwork) looks like it was put together in five minutes. Now that is a sad thing considering that back in the day I would actually buy the Maiden albums and posters for the artwork alone!! Whoever would want that album cover in poster size on the wall needs a lobotomy. Is that a wolf or what the fuck is it? What is going on with the lady on the right and her neck?! Geez!! Thankfully there are some great songs, except for again those slow plodding ones that just go on and on yet only have one verse and a chorus.

  • @vovindequasahi

    I can't stand the Blaze albums, and some of the latest Maiden albums. The X Factor has a couple of great returns to form but with Blaze on vocals, and those sound great, but then the songs just plod on and on and get really dull and too long. Me though I'm coming from a place where I adore the punky, sharp-as-a-knife original Di'Anno Maiden sound most. I love when they take some effort to mix some real energy into their songs, rather than just plodding on aimlessly for like two hours per song. That being said I don't mind Progressive quite the opposite... Just if you are going to be Progressive, then BE PROGRESSIVE! Don't be like a cat sniffing around the hot plate of food forever and ever and never get to the good stuff!

    The Blaze albums are cool if you give them time. It was definitely the start of Maiden writing unnecessarily long albums though. If you prefer the punkier style of the Di'Anno albums, I'm not surprised you find the more recent stuff more difficult to get into. Thanks for watching

    Excellent collection update video buddy! Massive list. 😎 Slayer's "Divine Intervention" is a beast of an album. I still think it's underrated, "Christ Illusion" shares the same status in my opinion. Kerry King's solo project is solid. For me, it took some time to appreciate the vocals. The rest is pretty much good stuff. Lastly, "Demanufacture" is a triumph of an album. One of the best in the Industrial Metal genre. A absolute gamechanger! 🤘

I have not listen to that Fear Factory since 1993, my friends played it so much when it first was released that I began to despise it, I need to give it another chance. I have most of those album in the Black Sabbath boxset but I am interested in what the remaster of Forbidden sounds like, I have heard a lot of good reviews on it. Great update as usual.

I also remember the Prodigy as a very popular band wit their first album they have a very unique sound. I still need to listen to the new Pearl Jam album, the last ome wan't good at all, imo.... 2024's boxset of the year without a question and the new Forbidden's remix is also the highlight, my only complain is that i wished the vinyl would be and exact replica of the OG.... cheers and be well

    Slayer - Divine intervention , kerry king, Delamitri , just think after it cost you less money to get on cd and cassette than vinyl you can take those albums out for a walk? never heard of Massive wagons , nice Billy Joel , nice prodigy , intersting Entombed, nice Black Sabbath, how are you just getting around to getting that Billy Joel album? why not pick it up in 1986 what happened? what happened to the grammys no more Metal award the artist picks it up early in the evening and now no dance category!!!!!! what do you think about these albums on cassette kiss their 70's Ac/dc - highway to he l l Ac/dc- For those about to rock Def Leppard the first 4 albums? early Iron Maiden I would think it's worth having some albums on multiple formats? I certainly don't mind missing out on Black Sabbath albums starting in 1989 when I have 5 star albums like Blizzard , Diary , Tribute and No Rest for the wicked plus Dio Holy Diver , Last in line. Trust me i'm not losing sleep not owning any Sabbath from 1989 till the end?

    I always liked the way sealed cassettes smelled, once opened. Reminded me as a kid of --- new music! I remember everyone always borrowing that GnR cassette from me too lol. We bought tickets to see Aerosmith bouncing back with Permanent Vacation. Ticket sales were a bit slow, until they announced GnR as the opener. Then tickets just disappeared. Luckily, we already had ours. Aerosmith was good, but GnR was a bit scary. You could tell they were a hungry young band, ready for bigger and better things. Great memories...

    The Sabbath box is fantastic, keep meaning to do a comparison but the remasters & remix are so good. (would have prefered the inner sleeves repros rather than the useless tour program). If you want the 3 bonus tracks you will have to get the CD box..... The Prodigy, one of the greatest live bands i have EVER seen. mindblowing stuff, you really need to catch them live if you can, even without Keith. i've just been getting a few pre-orders in. Had to cut right back, vinyl is waaaaay too expensive now for me unless i love the band, Pre-ordered In Extremo's new album, Tankard's new 3 LP box set reissue & Heilung's latest opus which is due out in August.
