I go through brief periods of listening to metal and tend to like the sludge/doom end of it or the more up front 70s occult style groups like Jex Thoth, Blood Ceremony and The Devil's Blood.

ah, i meant the japanese pysch band....
c'est la vie.

That's a fantastic bargain - there's at least 4 great albums in this set... I might get the new Throbbing Gristle re-issues depending on how the remasters sound. I've seen no reviews so far though...

When I ordered tickets for a Thin Lizzy concert next year, HMV gave me some vouchers. Oh yeaaah!

Demdike@Cult Labs 7th December 2011 10:07 PM

Nice haul of cd's Kyle.

Can't believe you didn't already own Powerslave or Destroyer though.

Well all the studio cds - there's a couple Live ones I'm missing.

P.S. Judas Priest >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Iron Maiden.

Demdike@Cult Labs 7th December 2011 10:28 PM

Priest have only made one superb album (Painkiller) Vengeance, Faith and British Steel are very good but not the classics they are made out to be. United is a frankly embarrassing track.

Not one of Priest's albums since Painkiller have been any good either.

Demdike@Cult Labs 7th December 2011 10:34 PM

My last post actually makes me seem as if i don't rate Judas Priest. That is not the case at all. They are an excellent band who have many superb songs.

I just think they should have had more glory than they actually have had.

I stand by my "no decent album's since Painkiller though".

Painkiller is most definetly one of their best! It's incredible! There's so many Priest albums that are just utterly amazing and even the lesser praised albums such as Rocka Rolla and Turbo, Point Of Entry are brilliant. Defenders of the Faith, Screaming For Vengeance, Killing Machine, British Steel and Painkiller are my favourites. In my eyes, Priest can do no wrong (I even like Lochness! :laugh:)

Sure their years without Rob weren't that great and I do find myself skipping some of the Demolition songs when I'm playing music on Shuffle, but come on! These guys helped make heavy metal. As someone said somewhere before (:laugh: ) Black Sabbath made music heavy, Priest made it heavy metal. Honestly, I would put quite a lot of Priest's work above Iron Maiden's but then again, I'm pretty biased :laugh:

Totally agree Demdike!

It annoys me soo much when I mention to people my love for Priest and they're like 'Who?' Yet if you name Iron Maiden, Sabbath, Motorhead - well everyone knows them!

I'd agree with you on the Painkiller thing too, although I don't dislike The Ripper years, AOR is a nice comeback and I do really like Nostrodamus, but I have to be in the right mood.

See post 52 above. :happy:

edit - ahh, you have done. :nod:

Demdike@Cult Labs 7th December 2011 10:53 PM

I suppose the Ripper years for Priest are like the Bayley years for Maiden.

Two ok albums with one or two killer tracks between them, the rest being average filler that wouldn't have made it on to an album during the eighties.

Priest -

Jugulator
Bullet Train
Machine Man

Maiden -

Sign of the Cross
The Clansman
Futurereal.

Thankfully Maiden came back strongly and seem to be bigger than ever. With Priest its yet again "what might have been".

Totally agree again! Hit the nail on the head! Although I'd probably add Jekyll and Hyde to that list, though I know I'm in the minority there.

There will always be tracks or films that an individual loves but the majority think are poor...

...in these cases the majority are the ones talking out of their arses. :clap:

I have just got the two-disc, delux, remastered edition of 'Quadrophenia'

What is interesting is the fact that the booklet in the packaging makes mention of Townshend working on a sequel to the film, with the continuing story of Jimmy the Mod

Wes 8th December 2011 09:41 AM

I just picked up 4 of the new Throbbing Gristle remasters... Second Annual Report, D.O.A, Heathen Earth, 20 Jazz Funk Greats...

Word on the remasters is good...

I'm seriously thinking of buying the vinyl editions as well, even though I don't have a record player anymore....but, y'know.... its Throbbing Gristle, like...

finally got myself a copy of the cd reissue of Flipper's Public Flipper Limited (the live album released in 85). still a lovely thing to behold, it still has the "game" included (a snakes and ladders ting based on touring.....ahem).

Don't buy a great deal these days but my more recent purchases were Green Naugahyde by Primus and Wolfsbane Save the World by Wolfsbane. So nice to see Blaze Bayley back in Wolfsbane after the Maiden fiasco. Never sounded right in Maiden for the back catalogue stuff but is awesome in Wolfsbane.

Two nights of Primus beckon in January. Can't wait. Saw them in Manchester and London last year and it was genius.

Never been much of a Priest fan I have to say and ended up bailing on their set at Wacken last year to see Hayseed dixie instead....who did an ace cover of Breaking the Law at the same time Priest where playing it on the main stage :)

I liked X Factor as an album. Very dark in tone which suited Blaze. I thought
Virtual XI was diabolical though. The synth horns and Hammond at the start of Angel and the Gambler was the lowest point of Maidens musical history for me. Clansman was good but amazingly cheesy and, yeah, Futureral is highly decent as well.

Kyle will hunt you down and bash you over the head with a copy of Stained Class if he see's this. :lol:

Foreinger - Juke Box Heroes. Classic band and great compilation. Might be to mainstream for some but it works for me.

Original Album Series - Faith No More

Are the original album series in card miniatures rather than proper cd cases?

The size of the case makes it seem that way.

I like those if they are the same as the original vinyl releases. I have a box set of the Sabbath Ozzy albums like that. Gatefolds, inserts the works.

At the Gates - The Red in the Sky is Ours.

Sir Cliff Richard 12th April 2012 08:18 AM

Mine was a bit of a vinyl bulk buy from my local record shop-both new and second hand, as a result of a nice little tax return...

Sunn O))) - OO Void
DJ Shadow - The Less You Know The Better
The Orb - Live '93
Scientist Meets The Crazy Mad Professor - Studio 1
Faust & Nurse With Wound - Disconnected
T Power - Self Evident Truth Of An Intuitive Mind
as well as some Norwegian black metal I forget the name of, and the Fingerbobs TV Series Soundtrack :rockon: (had to get it, not something you see every day!)

Needless to say, most of the money's gone now...
