Metallica hasn't retired yet? The hell are they waiting for...

A decent replacement?

Killers.

I'm partial to the Paul DiAnno era, but I love To Tame a Land.

A decent replacement?

Been waiting since 1988...

My favorite is cobalt. What's yours?

First six albums. Last two with Ozzy don't count, and Sabbath with any other singer wasn't Sabbath.

Never Say Die and Technical Ecstasy are good albums.

 

[devilof76]

I agree. But I have a hard time seeing them as Black Sabbath albums. It sounds like a different band entirely. Especially after Sabotage.

Ozzy
Rammstein
Static X
Korn

Well that would be because Sabbath classify themselves as rock and roll not metal. Elements from those two albums exist on the ones before them.

I understand that, but you can't deny that there is something big missing from them.

Killers.

I changed my mind. I can't decide between Killers and the first album. When I think of Killers, songs like Purgatory and Ghenghis Khan are what immediately come to mind, but the debut has Strange World, Phantom of the Opera, Transylvania, Prowler...

I think the first one might be my favorite.

I just hear them exploring in different areas.

Ghenghis Khan and Murders in the Rue Morgue rock, but Powerslave is my favorite alblum of theirs. Rime of the Ancient Mariner being my favorite song.

 

[ProgMatinee]

Just about every Maiden album is awesome. I even like the 2 albums during Bruce's absence. My faves are Somewhere in Time and actually Brave New World.

 

[devilof76]

I haven't listened to them since Seventh Son.

Ghenghis Khan and Murders in the Rue Morgue rock, but Powerslave is my favorite alblum of theirs. Rime of the Ancient Mariner being my favorite song.

The first piece of vinyl I ever owned was Live After Death. That tour must have been something to see.

Maiden is what got me into metal to begin with, at an early age I was into horror flicks, comics and all that, I saw my cousins Maiden records and thought Eddie was the coolest guy ever LOL.

Bands I've seen live:

- Morbid Saint
- Metallica
- Anthrax
- Artillery
- Deceased
- Slayer
- Megadeth
- Toxic Holocaust
- Destruction
- Possessed
- Exodus
- Warbringer
- Onslaught
- Motörhead
- Overkill

That's off the top of my head, there's been more and I also didn't include the underground opener bands and stuff like that.

 

[denger4000]

What kind of metal thread hardly (or never) mentions Dio, Judas priest or Motorhead?

They put on a great live show. Caught them at the Warfield. Really small venue for all the pyro.
