@Oaktavia:

No worries man. On the topic of Iron Maiden, do you have any suggestions of similar sounding bands? I'm making a playlist for next weekend when I go to the beach.

Mercyful Fate, Judas Priest, Running Wild for some older stuff. In Solitude, Portrait as more recent examples

@Filthy:

@Oaktavia you probably heard this band already. But the singer on this is probably my favorite since old Glen Danzig.
I think Solstice has a female singer now though, or they did for their latest release. I don't care for any of their older stuff prior to 2013.

Solstice is a band that I never really paid attention to although I've had them on my list for a while. Have you ever listened to Atlantean Kodex? Similar style

No but I'll be sure to check them out… thanks

[Oaktavia]

@Filthy Oh OK gotcha  thanks for the brain waves

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

How about some Dokken?

(I ain't ashamed to admit that I love this song, and this whole album actually).

I am nowhere near as clued in to metal as you guys, and I’m sure you’re both familiar with this band, but I love The Sword for some Maiden-esque metal.

Bro The Sword is an awesome band. One I have forgotten about. Thank you for the reminder.

This is a different genre…but new content to me. A decent watch/listen:

Shit my bad I already posted that video earlier. I'm a little bit drunk…

This shit is fire.

I'm glad you're enjoying yourself

Wow that Carcass song was insane. I dig the peace sign/revisited design. Far out.

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

That peace sign was made by HR Giger is I am not mistaken.

There was a Giger documentary that was on Netflix a few years ago…dude was wild. Had a lot going on like big time.

If you mean Dark Star, I've seen it. A large portion of it was about his helper Tom G Warrior of Celtic Frost. The cover of this album is also HRG

Are you in the US…i'm assuming.? There are two metal festivals in Maryland. MD Deathfest and MD Doom fest. If you are close it is for sure an awesome experience. I do not usually remember  most outings...but I do enjoy them.

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Yeah I live near Pittsburgh. I was going to go there one year but it always falls during the busiest time for me at work.

Celtic Frost may be history, but Tom Warrior is still going strong with Triptykon:

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

thanks. I didn't know that….

@Oaktavia I bought that Mirror album and was listening to it today. The singer is so good and almost reminds me of Dio in a way.

This running from the law song is my favorite that I got to hear today…

[Oaktavia]

@Filthy that's awesome man, glad you enjoy it. One of the guys is a tattoo artist that I follow and he posted that as his band on Instagram. The album cover really caught my eye too love the artwork.
