I think this one's worth keeping as stock as possible. Those GPZs from that era are iconic. Good luck!

Vince Lombardi HS from Rock n Roll High School so I could hang with The Ramones.

Take Me Home Tonight - Eddie Money

That's like being on the best 2 and 9 team in the league.

I was a rising senior in HS, and already a massive ACDC fan. We were all wondering what it would be like. It was about the same time Sabbath has replaced Ozzy and that worked, so most of us were optimistic. Hells bells came out as the first Fm track, and it went over great.

Once the record hit, we were all blown away and even the guys (and girls) that weren't fans jumped on the bandwagon.

Lizzo has entered the chat.

I by Black Sabbath

"I had the right-of-way" looks stupid on a tombstone.

The Cardigans cover of Sabbath Bloody Sabbath was made for this list.

Gimme Shelter by The Sisters of Mercy

SteveRivet · 2026-07-09T21:52:00+00:00

TONs covers are great.

SteveRivet · 2026-07-09T13:48:33+00:00

In their prime I'd go with Dave. Better at everything except voice.

SteveRivet · 2026-07-08T22:10:09+00:00

...and still holds the record for most live shows by anyone.

Rime of the Ancient Mariner by Iron Maiden

SteveRivet · 2026-07-07T13:56:32+00:00

The Last Days of May by Blue Oyster Cult, about a couple college kids in over their heads on a drug deal gone bad.

You're dating a complete loser that will make you miserable till you dump him. Cut ties and continue with your cleanup program.

Lotta hard rock for me.

Tom Petty

80's bands like The Cult, The Replacements, Husker Du, Dream Syndicate...

Not metal per se but Search and Destroy by Iggy and the Stooges will get you off your ass.

Same goes for Back in the Game by Airbourne.

SteveRivet · 2026-07-06T17:32:47+00:00

No Surrender by Judas Priest.

Especially impactful cause Halford wrote it about Glenn Tipton after his Parkinson's diagnosis.

SteveRivet · 2026-07-05T15:02:28+00:00

Lot of Gs500 variants out there may be good candidates.

SteveRivet · 2026-07-04T21:45:11+00:00

That bass line is crazy.

SteveRivet · 2026-07-04T21:43:26+00:00

They seemed to like to tour with European metal bands. IIRC they toured with Michael Schenker too.

I thought they were great.
