Heavy Metal and Being Lightning related

AC DC has a lightning bolt in their symbol -
same could be said for KISS -
Any cool songs I might like with lightning -
and remember - 'someone' - it so says in the bible -
was cast down from Heaven - like lightning - POW !
 

Diamond Head - Lightning To The Nations

Thin Lizzy - Thunder And Lightning
Dominici - Liquid Lightning
Loudness - Lightning Strikes
Iron Maiden - Lightning Strikes Twice   

Accept - Blitz Of Lightning
The Obsessed - Blind Lightning

and how has this not been mentioned yet...
Metallica - Ride The Lightning

Saxon - Where the Lightning Strikes
KISS - When Lightning Strikes

I think that Dokken song is the best one mentioned so far.

More AOR, but here you go:

Just listened to this yesterday :

ONSLAUGHT Rocks !!
Sounds like early Metallica - which is tremendous -
singer sounds kinda like Grim Reapers singer - powerful !
Diamond Head - wow - what a classic clip - another great listen !
Dokken - such a concert type tune ! Crowd goes wild when it's over -
and darkness again drapes the stage, except for the amp lights !
GIANT rocks too - in a Van Halen summertime cookout type way !

Yeah that's him alright. The first and only album he sang with Onslaught. The others I've heard of their's are good but In Search Of Sanity is my favorite.

Me too. Sanity is such a good album. I'm always on the search for albums that really got that Metallica vibe down, and this record really does.

Noone mentioned this Aerosmith classic yet?


Even when I didn't initially care for the album (I do now), I've always thought that was a cool tune!!

Now beat this:

I actually like MLP (current generation, not the girly crap from the 80s), but yeah, pretty ridiculous. Though not as bad as the imagery suggests. Then again, I like cheesy 80s metal so...

Not many lighting stuff I could mention that hasn't. Too bad this isn't how fire is related to metal. Because, despite lightning being quite metal related, it's not as related to metal as fire is. However, that's for another thread.

DB-When did MLP stop being girly crap?

The modern version created by Lauren Faust was created to break the sterotypes of girls cartoons. The humor is all encompasing and written for people of all ages. Also plenty of adult humor in the form of pop culture references. The toys are still girly, as little girls toys is what Hasbro is interested in, but the cartoon itself has created a large adult male (and also female) audience. Including celebrities like John de Lancie (Q from Next Generation), Weird Al Yankovic, Andrew WK, Seth Green, Johnny Depp, John Astin, and others. De Lancie does a reaccuring character on the show and Weird Al has guest starred as well. This MLP has much more in common with Phineas & Ferb and Spongebob than Rainbow Bright and Strawberry Shortcake. It does get somewhat sappy at times and some of the songs are meh. However, the differences between it and old school MLP is like night and day.

Good way to explain it:



That's pretty much all I have to say about that. I am one of those male fans (a Brony), but as I told Fat Freddy, I will not make a big deal about it. One reason Bronies have so much hate and vitriol toward them is because of some fringe people of the fandom post pony pictures and videos anywhere and everywhere they go. Almost like a religion, they make it their mission to convert people to fans. I refuse to be one of those people. I like what I like and people are free to dislike it or not care in any way whatsoever.

Oh, and another one...
