Desert Island Discs 2.0

King Of Kaiju Number of posts : 30892 Age : 63

OK, we've done these here a couple times before that I can find (https://heartofmetal.niceboard.com/t4496p50-10-desert-island-discs) but it was a decade ago so let's give it another go.

You're stranded on a desert island but miraculously you still have a way to play your favorite albums (batteries, solar panels, who knows?...don't overthink it). So what FIVE albums (it was TEN in the last two threads on this topic so this is more difficult $\'arry \'eadbanger$ ) would you consider essential to have with you in order to keep some form of sanity?

Some of mine are the "usual suspects" from the last time we did this but some have also changed.

What say you?

Metallica - Master of Puppets
Saxon - Denim and Leather
W.A.S.P. - W.A.S.P.
Loudness - Thunder in the East

That would be very hard to pare down to just five. Can't I just take my iPod with me? It has over 12,000 songs on it and I won't have to choose. Razz

1) Mercyful Fate, Don't Break the Oath
2) Slayer, Show no Mercy.....with the bonus tracks from Haunting the Chapel on it lol
3) David Gilmour, Live at Gdansk....not going thru life without hearing Echoes again, but don't wanna be stuck with Meddle as a choice, cause just not enough music on it! Very Happy

4) Judas Priest, The Collection CD....it's basically Rocka Rolla and Sad Wings combined on one CD.
5) Black Sabbath, We Sold our Soul...

Ok - apparently this is no longer the Metal room. So, my real five would be:

Prince - Purple Rain
Tina and the B-Sides - Young American
Jellyfish - Bellybutton
Vanessa Paradis - s/t
The Clash - Story of the Clash [I can cheat too]

Here is my list:

- Bloodbound: stormborn.
- Seven witches: xiled to infinity and one.
- UDO: mastercutor.
- Pantera: vulgar display of power.
- Artillery: when death comes.

This is a bit harder than I thought, because thinking about it - I think variety is more important than just picking the top 5 records.

I think I'd want 1 aggressive thrash album, 1 noodly prog album, 1 melodic pop metal album, 1 dragonslaying true metal album etc.

Great album.

I would have:

Metallica - St. Anger
2wo - Voyeurs
Opeth - (any)
Geoff Tate - solo album
(any black metal album)

These albums would inspire me to leave the island ASAP and to forge a raft from palm leaves and coconut husks. With some great thrash on a loop, I would get far to comfortable in the sun there.

I think I would have to go with some stuff that's a bit diversified. It would be easy to just pick my top 5 metal albums but I know I would want some other stuff as well.After all, I'm stuck on this island til I die. It would probably look like this;

Led Zeppelin IV
Beastie Boys-Licensed to Ill
Queen-The Game
Cinderella- Long Cold Winter
The Crucified- The Pillars of Humanity

Another Sade fan!
