Panflute Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 This is a small project I've been working on where I go through a band's discography and review every album with a short blurb. It's mainly for myself, but those who are interested can see what a big Megadeth fanboy I've become. Iron Maiden is next on the list. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1uIE0x1SQYvPPoKyjZQsy19yBn39Fe3Ej8lbgBfUFsZI/edit?usp=sharing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, just a good old greatest hits basically, which I like as I've never seen them live before. Poison was the Cure is a really nice surprise as well. Now to make sure I get a spot near the stage...

Dr. Gonzo Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 On Thursday (or late Wednesday in Europe), Gimme Radio (which is an app I think every metalhead should check out) is interviewing Pooyan Ahmadi - the one man behind Iran's Bloody Sadism - on the state of Iranian extreme metal in Iran. Should be an interesting show, as it's got to be tough for metal musicians to play in a place where they can be sentenced to death for blasphemy just because of the music they make and listen to.

Panflute Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Friday night question: what's everyone's favorite Iron Maiden album? For me, I just have to go with Powerslave. The songs, the sound, the art work, it's just perfect Maiden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the mixtures of aggression and complexity, punk and prog influence etc. Of their 80s heyday, probably Piece of Mind. Less said about anything released this century the better...

tlr Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Sabbath's debut is half a century old today, which also means today is heavy metal's 50th birthday. What an album. What a band. What a legacy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panflute Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 I went ahead and got the original versions of Megadeth's Countdown to Extinction and Youthanasia, and boy does it make a difference with the remasters. A much more juicy drum sound, plenty of reverb, and a greater dynamic range. After already getting the superior original mixes of Rust in Peace and Cryptic Writings, it really makes me wonder what Mustaine was thinking with the 2004 remasters.

I especially hate the most recent remaster of Killing is my Business... And Business is Good - they took all the fucking bass out off that album. Which is mental because possibly my favourite song on the album, Chosen Ones, has exquisite bass work. But yeah, I found the originals for Countdown to Extinction and Youthanasia are so much better than the remasters... blows my mind really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
