I have been replacing all my cassettes with Cd's as well as picking up all the albums I didn't have. This band is awesome. I don't find a bad album in the lot. Currently my favorite old band. Any other fans...

uh yeah pretty much THIS GUY RIGHT HERE
the top 10:
1. Chainsaw Charlie 2. Thunderhead 3. Hellion 4. Killahead 5. Godless Run 6. Charisma 7. Still Not Black Enough 8. Restless Gypsy 9. Hold On To My Heart 10. Sleeping (In The Fire)
I want to include 'Wild Child' too, but it's like that and 'Crazy' are almost the same song and I can't pick because that one song is both amazing. Oh. ROCK AND ROLL TO DEATH!

Never heard a single note from them that I'm aware of.

I bought the first one as a new release and wore it out. Still revisit it. Never made it past the electric circus and lost interest. At some point I'd like to check out what they have done since.
I do have to say that first one had me hooked for a long time. The last command was good, but not like the first one. I had pretty much moved on by electric circus. Thanks for the clips, I'm interested.

NO. YOU DON'T. Because you know what happens to posers? They have to leave the hall. Of Valhalla. I think. Or just the hall. Dinner hall. Some hall. But there is probably food there, so don't get kicked out for being a wuss.

Or maybe Burzum comes after them. I don't really know.

I used to be a huge Wasp fan but the last 6 albums have not impressed me. Love the first 3 albums though! I also really like the song Arena of Pleasure.

I used to love W.A.S.P., but haven't really been into them past K.F.D..

I followed W.A.S.P. from the debut album up through Headless Children. Then I sold those albums in the early 90s prior to leaving for college and I don't think I've heard any of them since.

WASP rules!
I saw them live back in 200..8? on the Crimson Idol anniversary tour... they played the entire Crimson Idol album live and songs from their earlier / newer album (at the time Dominator).
Very very good set and live band. Blackie did chuck up a stink about people filming with their mobile phones and threatened to kick out a couple of people for filming the band. I don't think security was able to kick anyone out.

One of my favorite bands. Saw them opening for KISS on their debut tour (great show !). I still need to pick up their last 2 releases.

Been a fan since the debut album, have dug pretty much all their stuff with only two exceptions - KFD and the "Neon God" two-fer.

I like all of their albums to various degrees. Some are classics, some are merely good. Not a huge fan of Helldorado or the Neon God discs, but they have their charm.

KFD and Helldorado are downers, but all the others are pure gold!

I dunno but I would definitely take 'KFD' over a lot of the stuff on the 'Neon God' records. Those records are full of stuff which either goes nowhere or even straight up plagiarizes older W.A.S.P. songs.
'Helldorado' I wouldn't take over anything. That's a good title track though.

Haven't really checked out their more recent stuff, but love the stuff I have by them.

I start to zone out after disc 1. The Neon God is a classic case of "trim that sh*t down to 1 good album instead of 2 mediocre ones".

No, it's a classic contract fulfillment.

That's possible. But I'm willing to give old Blackie the benefit of the doubt. He's always been full of hot air, so writing a double-album worth of material ain't no big thing.
If it was just contract fulfillment, he coulda just crapped out a lame live album.

I'm definitely a fan but I have less than 1/2 of their albums. I have their debut, The Last Command, Inside The Electric Circus, The Headless Children, and Neon God Parts 1 & 2. I really like the Neon God CDs.
