Are you listening to any metal music right now?

Sanctuary - Inception album, current song: Battle Angels

I've got a classic Alice Cooper (re:70's-era) playlist going on right now. Everything from Easy Action up to Goes to Hell.

Awesome album. Greek metal released back in 1986.

You definitely need to check these guys out:

I am spinning Overkill - The Wings of War right now.

Not bad, bro. Musically very good, but the vocals seem boomy and echoey. Thanks for introducing me. The only older Greek Metal band I know of is Spitfire, and I love the "First Attack" album! New Greek Metal is Firewind and Gus G. solo stuff. Big time fan of Mr. G right here.

I love spitfire. I highly recommend you check out Sacral Rage for some excellent Greek speed metal.

Cool. Their S/T popped up on youtube for me yesterday after Riot City's Burn the Night album ended. Awesome stuff.

Listening to LP 1 of Blind Guardian's "Live" from 2003 at the moment.

I'd say so as well.

Well, to wrap it up from my side, i'd say that i am finally getting to listen to much more metal right now at home.

The dining room is officially my office, during the day. Kids are not allowed anyhwere near. They have the entire house for themselves. And I am keeping them quite busy, be it through studying, reading, TV or playing some video games...

This has allowed me to play my favourite music while working, and boy does it boost the productivity.

I really enjoy picking up the albums i will be spinning the next day.

The good thing about not buying new music is that i am no longer piling up cds just for the sake of collecting.

I have been revisiting my collection and properly playing the albums i had probably listened to in a hurry upon purchase.

Man, I agree and echo so many of those statements. I am pulling out CD's and cassettes I haven't listened to in years. I am probably spinning 4-6 full albums a day as we always seem to have music playing. Cooking, eating. cleaning, there is always something on the player. It's mostly me and my daughter during the day until the wife gets home around 3:30pm (she goes in for 7am) and when she wants to just chill and watch Disney+ in the upstairs office, I go to the music room and spin a record and chat with you guys.

"The good thing about not buying new music is that i am no longer piling up cds just for the sake of collecting."

Excellent point. I used to have a pile of stuff about a foot high on my computer table gathering dust and I vowed to never let that happen again. It's funny, with the vinyl collecting the last couple of years, I never let anything sit. Even if it's an album that I have had on CD and cassette for decades, I still bust it open and spin it a few times before it gets shelved.

I spun the first VVI album on vinyl and now it's another former Kiss guitarist in mark St. John with White Tiger.

I am listening to Unbidden - Slaughtering the Vile, an album where I got thanked in the booklet.

I was outback earlier repainting our barstools while playing a variety of thrash on Spotify. Much to the delight of my neighbors I’m sure.
