Metal Heads Unite

I'm just an old fart that remembers the beginnings of Metal. I'm not into all the newer metal which just sounds like noise to me. I grew up on Priest and Maiden. I understand that music changes so if others like the death/slash/speed metal that all good. Myself I like the old style.

Music is a matter of personal taste and different people like different things.

KK has put the sound I like into an amazing collection of songs.

What's odd is some of the guitar licks he does. Some sound like classic Priest but some sound like Maiden. I think that with both bands being British these are KK licks used by Maiden. Which makes one wonder how prolific KK's influence permeated early Metal. He is definitely one of the early pioneers in Metal. I sure hope that when they tour they hit Portland because I'll be going and if I can purchase Meet and Greet tickets I will do so.
 
Im looking for the heaviest mosh pit inducing drop i can get. A more melodic droning suits me, tinted with a cacophony of chaos spattered in.
 
I grew up on the BNWOHM as well. Maiden's my fav all time band along with Rush. A Buddy where I used to work got me into Death and Black Metal on a road trip when I was in my late 30's and I haven't looked back. I find listening to some of the vocals as a guitar tone helped me get used to the growl style a lot. But I never pay attention to words in music anyways. It's all about the tones for me. Also has to be fast and heavy!
