The HARD ROCK & HEAVY METAL Thread Continued

I listen to more Heavy Metal music these days than when I was younger, when the music was newly released. For example, Black Sabbath's Heaven and Hell is in heavy rotation, especially with my RAAL CA-1a phone and the VM-1a tube headphone amp. My uber rock and roll setup. I never paid too much attention to it back in the day though it got a lot of radio play.

I remember playing some Ramstein when I lived in a rental apartment in Virgina 20 years ago. My upstairs neighbor got so scared, not so much by the volume, but by the vocalist. 

Wow, where to start!

I could make this a very long post based on my love of heavy rock and metal, but here are a few that are nostalgic to my adolescence.

Black Sabbath - Symptom of the universe, Into the void, Supernaut 

Judas Priest - Beyond the realms of death, Desert Plains

Thin Lizzy - Miss Misery

Corrosion of Conformity - Albatross, Clean my wounds

Honestly , I could go on forever. I grew up in the 70’s and my uncles were all rock and heavy metal fans so I experienced a lot of early rock. While I enjoy all genres of music, my soul always goes to hard rock. 🤘 

The Aristocrats. Current, virtuoso-level instrumental rock-fusion. And stunning sound quality. Just unwrapped their latest double album “Duck”. 
 

Stream a few tracks. You won’t be disappointed.
