Saxon - Can't recall ever hearing them or even knowing anybody who liked them as a teen. I was told to buy Lionheart, and now they are one of my fave bands.

Deliverance- I can't say I was ever into Chrstian metal like some here, but how the first 2 albums escpaed me is beyond me. The first 2 cds are classic, imo.

Vain - I think the album cover for No Respect turned me off to this band. I don't need a dude in leather panrs crawling at me on an album cover. But when I bought it on ebay to sell after hearing so much about it on Metal Sludge, I gave it a listen. Now I have all their albums, and like most of their stuff.

Your turn.

Hmmm, there are many. I've only been hanging out on music forums for about the past three years, but in that time I've discovered tons of bands, some old and some new...

Off the top of my head...

Firewind
Airbourne
Mortal Sin
E-Z-O
Zion's Abyss
Helstar

Stormwitch
Rene (krokus) on the board turned me onto them. Cheesy 80's metal. I absolutely love them.

Manitou
Again, Rene (krokus) on the board turned me onto them. Awesome modern metal with an 80's feel. I absolutely love them as well.

Some of my favorites that I first heard of online:

Rob Rock/Implliterri - I had heard of MARS - Project Driver back
in the day, but never actually got it. How I missed Impelliterri is
beyond me as well, but I first heard of Rob Rock back when Rage of
Creation was coming out. Now he ranks among my favorite vocalists ever.

Winter's Bane - Met Lou St. Paul online when I heard about his planned
instrumental album and hit him up for an interview. Stellar band that I
had never heard before, despite the Priest connection.

Probably a lot more, but I'm too lazy to think of any others.

Probably 95% of my purchases I've made since I started posting here have been because of you wankers. Thanks "internet friends".

Metalguy - That describes me!!

I started listening to Tri-Rock in 05. I'd always been a Christian Metal guy (not Metalguy) with a sprinkling of Maiden, Dio, Metallica and a few other secular Metal Bands here and there.

Well, on Tri-Rock I heard Rob Rock, Masterplan and Astral Doors and was blown away. Simply stunned. I did some research on buying and trading and that led me to the CMR. I lurked there for a little and it dawned on me due to all the conversations going on that I was WAY out of the loop. I'd listened to the same basic bands for 15-16 years. Bride, Morty, Deliverance, Iron Maiden, Metallica, Soundgarden, Punk in general, etc.....but I had no idea what was "out there". When Metal was driven underground I sort of just stayed in a time warp.

So, in the Autumn of 05 I purchased Masterplan - Aeronautics. I also got Becoming The Archetype's Terminate Damnation and realized there was still great brutal Christian metal to be had. From there I was off on a Metal "bender" and over th next 2 1/2 years bought 100's of CDs and tried to catch up on what I'd been missing all these years.

So, 75%+ of my current collection is thanks to my Brothers at the CMR and both incarnations of The Heart Of Metal (with a big nod to Ult's site which I actually had referenced years before I found the CMR....I guess I never clicked on the links??) To this day if I'm wavering or checking out a band I'd not heard of I go straight to Nolifetilmetal and now these days also MetalMetropolis to make sure of what I'm checking out.

So, you jerks have cost my $1000's!!!!! angry angry

BRAND NEW SIN. Rexorcist was the one who suggested I check them out saying, "they sound like Black Label Society should sound." Indeed! Great band. (But I still like BLS too.)

i didn't consider anyone here at this forum because the thread said internet friends, rather than internet boobs. eyesore recommended Cadaveria to me. so i guess that counts.

I don't even know where I could start. There have been several people (mostly from this board, and A LOT from UncleSax) that have turned me on to TONS of great bands.

I have no idea how many bands I got started on because of message boards like this onebut it's a lot. And I like to think that I've contributed to others discovering bands on the same boards.

And I got them from you along with Fireball Minisrty. Then I got Priestess and The Sword from Eyesore. Other stuff like Serenity and Mechanical Poet and Dawn of Solace from him too. Lots of power metal from Wargod. I really don't buy anything post 2000 unless I consult here first. Almost everybody that's been here awhile has put me on to something.
