Old school Detroit metal/hard rock

Found this pretty cool site within the last year or so...

http://www.motorcityrock.com/index.shtml

I thought it was pretty much just a listing of area bands & shows they performed. It was just recently I realized they have mp3s and I've been downloading some stuff. There's some good bands on here! There's also some bad ones.

Did anyone grow up in the Detroit area and remember any of these bands? I'm not from the area originally, I moved to Lansing in summer '06, but hey-- good music is good music and I'm taking all I can get!

So far, I'm really digging EZ Access, Almighty Strut, Sweet Teaze, and Asylum.

Wow! Never even heard of 99% of those bands. I'll have to check it out some more when I have some time.

Very cool site... I discovered it a while back when I was searching for info on Ded Engine, a Detroit band from back in the day (some of you might remember their ads in the back of Circus and other metal magazines back then)... you could spend hours in their database!

Just found two more good bands -- Halloween and Heaven's Wish.

Look up a band on their called the Trash Brats, they are the sh*t!

TRASH BRATS....great party glam.....

I like Halloween. A friend of mine used to have the Ded Engine album. Man , I haven't heard that album in ages.

Hey Shiney their 'lost bands' profile is in the works, one of the Motor City's finest!

I've heard of Halloween before, but I'll have to check out this site when I have more time. I was born in the Detroit area, but I was moved away as a very young lad.
