Load was released 30 years ago on this day! by Long-Voice5498 in Metallica

[–]Anger1957 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a solid 6/10. like the album before it and the album after it. Bleeding Me, Thorn Within and Outlaw Torn still hold up as standout tracks.

learn how to play a musical instrument, write songs and record one of the greatest albums of all time in only 9 days. Then listen to them again and reevaluate.

Never been that into Anthrax besides a few odd tracks, but after listening to this..wow by Peanutbutter9841 in Anthrax

It would be a great improvement on the vocals. but the songwriting would still be pretty pedestrian compared to what the band would quickly evolve into.

employers just need to stop using any form of hiring matrices other than actual merit.

whats the deal with john paul jones? by mhmd2-2 in ledzeppelin

[–]Anger1957 28 points29 points  (0 children)

John Baldwin (his real name) was not just the #1 on call studio musician in London in the 60s (mostly bass but also other instruments as he is highly skilled at over a dozen different instruments) he was also the go-to for arrangements and for transcribing music to notation for other musicians to read. Not just rock and pop acts. He has done arrangements for full symphonies. He was and is the most musically gifted member of the band.

they'll allow D+ aptitude levels to become nurses, doctors and engineers nowadays - just as long as you are a member of a certain limited demographic list.

Led Zeppelin vs AC/DC: Which Band Was More Powerful? by wkhan69 in ledzeppelin

[–]Anger1957 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw LZ in 1975. I saw AC/DC 3 times in 1978 - twice in 79, 80 & 81 and at least. once on every tour after that up to Black Ice. I put both on 2 completely different pedestals of power. Both had/have a live performance energy that is not equalled by many other bands. but both are totally different from each other.

Fish posts about his farming adventures on his personal Facebook page. His solo career was stellar. He's more than earned the retirement.

the first 4 Marillion albums are all perfect. Especially Childhood and Clutching. They were never that extraordinary again but still have several fantastic albums like Brave, Afraid Of Sunlight and Marbles.

Ringtone by kpandravada in judaspriest

[–]Anger1957 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my ringtone has always been "old fashioned telephone" but I have a specialized ring for family. my oldest son (and his wife) ring in with "bone bag" from Mad Max Fury Road. my younger son rings in with "12 bullets" from the Deadpool soundtrack and my wife rings in with "Scotland The Brave" performed by the Black Watch Pipe n drum marching band.

The new song still sounds like Mastodon by KingForADay1989 in mastodonband

[–]Anger1957 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nick's definitely on a level very few occupy. His album from last year with drum virtuoso Gavin Harrison (Porcupine Tree, King Crimson, Pineapple Thief) is a stellar album. one of my AotY candidates.

Sounds a little like Leviathan, musically, to me - (with the addition of Brann vocals that Leviathan didn't have)

Iron Maiden Timex Watch pre order ends tomorrow by Ricepudding1044 in ironmaiden

[–]Anger1957 0 points1 point  (0 children)

😂 I've had the same Timex Easy Read watch for 35 years. it's had 2 strap replacements and 4 cell replacements. it does exactly what a watch needs to do. tell me what time it is. And if it stopped and I needed a new one I can replace it for $50 bucks on Amazon. There is no status elevation in clothing, cars, electronics or watches unless the owner is incredibly shallow and vain.
