I like all kinds of rock but certain bands go that extra mile as it were, such as Soungarden, Mastodon, Satirycon and Korn

Saw Kreator and Overkill at The Grove in Anaheim on Friday. Outstanding show! Metal as all hell Hard to believe that both bands have been around damm near thirty years!!

got me some original metal

blue cheer

summertime blues


this is where it all started folkeroos :)

I originally heard this song when I was 12. It's one of the 1st songs that brought me back to my metal roots. Thanks Sweetest for mentioning it!

As for the term heavy metal I once saw on a documentary about metal in the nineties that the term "Heavy Metal” came from a novel by William Burroughs who described rock music as "The Clanking of heavy metal" Don't know how true it is. I always saw Sabbath as the first true "metal band" closely followed by Led Zep.

Probably is true considering Ministry used him in both the videos "NWO" and "Just One Fix". Also considering they were more of a 1st Industrial band along with Husker Du back in the 1980`s to 90`s along with KMFDM.

Venom
Bathory
Tank
Angel witch.....

Blue cheer are the godfathers of heavy metal
just listen to that song Doctor please, fruits and icebergs..

I have that CD, Psalm 69. NWO is awesome, must admit I don't have any other industrial stuff unless Rammstein count??

Slipknot!!
Oh yeah.

But its all about hardcore

My favorite bands are: Gojira, Slayer, Dio, Black Sabbath, Ministry, Pantera and soo much more!!

Yes slipknot's earlier stuff was vey good but don't you think they might beoming a parody of themselves?

Big fan of thrash bands like Slayer, Testament, Kreator.etc

Also like Progressive metal bands like Dream Theater, Opeth, Gojira.
