Unknown user Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 There's a punk thread so we're getting a metal one too! This song is perfect late 80s / early 90s speed metal, right down to the naked torsos and tight spandex. Intricate, aggressive - just brilliant!

Unknown user Posted October 31, 2017 Author Share Posted October 31, 2017 Here's another one of the big four, but from this century. The title track from the last album the classic lineup of Araya, King, Hanneman and Lombardo ever did. Effing magnificent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rossaldinho Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Orion by Metallica. Quite understated as a metal song but it is nothing short of absolutely epic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doctor jambo Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Metallica- Four horsemen and One frankly cannot be arsed with the rest of their stuff And Megadeth I loved their artwork , but found Mustaine too whiney Preferred Nuclear Assault for a speed metal fix Celtic Frost being the only band apart from Megadeth where I wore the Tshirts but didn't like the band- because Celtic Frost used at one point the artist who did the Marshall Law mags- Kevin O'Neill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bauld Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Most would go for the obvious 80s stuff but I'm going with this off of a very underrated album. Probably only bettered by Hallowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THe other album I loved from around that time was S.O.D- Live at the Budokan, I picked up in Bathgate Sunday Market "Speak English or Die" though modern scrutiny would not permit such songs as "**** the Middle East" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
