@simonmoon +1 for Riverside. I play them a lot... You might give RPWL a try if you haven't heard them. I'm old enough that I was around when some of the great albums were released. I spent most of my money on music. Van Halen debut is probably tops. Also Ted Nugent's early albums, first four Aerosmith albums, Judas Priest, UFO, Nazareth. Lots more not listed. |
@go4vinyl - funny you mention those American bands like Angel, Starz, Legs Diamond, etc; I've got a friend in England, and that was totally what he was in to! Also what he termed '-er bands', like 'Player' and any number of others with similar names. I also like Nazareth.... |
I agree that one persons "heavy metal" is another persons "hard rock' take on things. Me, at age 63 and having discovered "hard rock" about 10 years ago I find my self gravitating towards smaller bands eg. Seether. However Tool is always at the top of my playlist as is Godsmack. Tool's production is just wicked. I can't do speed or thrash metal. |
