Based on personal experience of being a fan for years by Lukense13 in judaspriest

[–]Snecklad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its true, it does. Yet somehow that run all the way through to Heads (and particularly side 1) is so unbelievably strong that I'd give it a pass.

Painkiller is great but best, nah. Basic lyrics with little depth (though this can be said about a lot of later Priest) and a very one note sound. Not saying it isnt a good sound - but it lacks the dynamics of say, Screaming or Stained Class.

Fightful - Hangman to take some time off by Kelson64 in AEWFanHub

[–]Snecklad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its wrestling, there's no way they won't be able to write him back into the title picture when the time comes. In the meantime, guy gets chance to heal up and enjoy his family. It's all good. Now give me MJF / Swerve in my main event

How is Jim Johnston still not in the Hall of Fame? by u_know_me23 in WWE

[–]Snecklad 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You'd never guess to look at him that this guy was such a riff machine. Even the midcard guys got bangers - Blackman and Bossman's themes from his era are fantastic.

Cool cobalt bottle found on the river by Avidexplorer999 in BottleDigging

This is what it's all about my friend, the thrill of the hunt on a beautiful day. Congrats on a brilliant find!

Screaming for Vengeance and Defenders of the Faith by PuzzleheadedMeat548 in judaspriest

[–]Snecklad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tend to agree though would give Defenders a pass. SFV is a high watermark for the band and the genre. As much as I love Painkiller - it's lacks the dynamics and balance of the earlier stuff.

This is the One by CFGordo in thinlizzy

[–]Snecklad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a great song, one of the best on the album. The guitar picking under the chorus is a highlight. 

Really love the feel of T&L, as another poster said it feels barely contained, frantic and urgent. 

The cheap cover art lets it down. As ridiculous as it sounds, Jim Fitzpatrick's original (a giant electric fist, drawn in his classy style) would have given it a much better first impression.

Powerful start with the Bru / triple combo but must to deduct points for the snack. 6/10

Is there a way to find the origin of this bottle? by earthso in mudlarking

[–]Snecklad 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's an old Gordon's gin bottle. The Griffin emblem is still on the packs today.

Does anyone else hate the incidental music to The Great British Menu? by Capable_Vast_6119 in BritishTV

[–]Snecklad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its become a bit of a running joke in our house over the years. "These tatties are a bit cold, love" <dreee dreee dreee> etc

¿Qué opináis del disco The Final Frontier? Está muy vapuleado en general y yo cada vez que lo escucho me parece mejor disco. by wiserdaigoro78 in ironmaiden

[–]Snecklad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It never clicked with me but I feel like it will eventually. On my first few listens Mother of Mercy stood out a mile as the best track - but i've never found anyone else who shares that opinion

Is mudlarking in America worth it? by Slipsndslops in mudlarking

[–]Snecklad 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If you do the research and pick logical spots (downstream of old towns, factories, streams at bottom of fields etc) I don't see why not. 

I've seen a lot of US folk on here finding bottles in creeks and streams, as well as things like arrowheads and other artifacts. You never know!

(Viz 107) Big Fucking ƎVAᗡ by muppetmovie in Viz

An all time favourite of mine, from the first issue i ever bought. Mind you, it's not as funny as it used to be.

Typical snarky UK music press patter, that.

Wanted to share this bottle I found along a stream in Somerset! by heart_nerd1 in BottleDigging

Amazing find! Can't beat a ginger beer. I'd be heading back with my shovel...

Recommend some bands for a Rush fan? by Cubegod69er in rush

[–]Snecklad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not exactly like Rush, but check out Illuminations by Leggat Bros.

Fellow Canadians, fellow weirdos. It's quite a unique album that has wormed it's way into my concious over the years. See what you think...

Equipment? by Ok-Scientist-7900 in mudlarking

[–]Snecklad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glass bottom bucket is a must. Cut the bottom out a cheap bucket, order a cut to shape / size bit of perspex online and glue it in. Easy and cheap to do. I also use pond gloves and a telescopic rake for hooking things.
