    Once again i post, ah, you'd think i never leave! Well im happy now, im getting 4 new albums, including the music! I feel happy to be happy leaving horrible musical history behind! Im got my feet firmly on the ground and walking to were i want to be going!
    So now that i've chucked my old c.d collection minus the good stuff which is respectable, im in search of a new c.d collection, and i have bands in my head, a good few actually, i need your recommendations!! So oh wise ones give me your thoughts!

    In Flames - Clayman
    Is a superb album, if you like melodic death metal.

    Nightwish - Wishmaster
    Is a good operatic power metal album.

    Iron Maiden - Rock in Rio
    Is a great live album from the legends themselves.

    HMV are doing two S.O.D albums for 13:99euro. highly recomended


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 198 ✭✭Axe


    EVERYTHING by AC/DC
    I almost agree with you, but with two exceptions, both Brian Johnson albums: Blow Up Your Video, and For Those About To Rock. Four highly excellent albums, all of which are fantabulously consistent, are Back In Black, Highway To Hell, Let There Be Rock and The Razors Edge.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,478 ✭✭✭GoneShootin


    Axe

    I would almost agree with you on the NOT GOOD albums

    BLOW UP YOUR VIDEO was the combination of bad music, bad producing, and bad commercialism. Tis crap in other words. Heetseeker played LIVE by Chrise Slade is awsome tho !

    I cannot agree with FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK however. It is a great album and definately worth the purchase to be included in any rock collection.


    /edit
    also, FLY ON THE WALL is not up to much either. If you need an example in your collection of rubbishy AC/DC that you can only listen to once every 6 or so months, tis FLY and BLOW...


  • Registered Users Posts: 586 ✭✭✭boogie man


    Black Flag
    Minor Threat
    Fugazi
    Misfits (old, not the new WWF Misfits)
    Ween
    Dead Kennedys
    Minutemen

    Just some bands I like. :D

    Especially Bonfire(5 cd collection)

    For metal, you can't go wrong with Iron Maiden.
    Powerslave, Number Of The Beast, Piece of Mind, and Brave New World are all great. And yes, Rock In Rio is fantastic.

    Don't forget Thin Lizzy!

    i agree completely


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,714 ✭✭✭✭Earthhorse


    And I second your agreement.

    Staying OT though:

    Lemonheads - Car, Button, Cloth
    Stone Temple Pilots - Core and Purple
    Whipping Boy - Heartworm
    Beck - Mutations

    Not necessarily heavy metal but it's all solid stuff.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 351 ✭✭Darkillion


    not a fan of STP myself

    Yeah, as much as I love Vs. and Ten, Vitalogy always seems to capture even more raw energy and creativity to me. Not that I could choose a favourite though :D
