One of my favorite album covers of all time.
One of my all time favorites bro. Perfect get high music. Road cruising music. Workout music. Stoner metal. Wyndorf is a rock god.
How many Satanic Polish dudes does it take to screw in a light bulb?
I interviewed them at L'aMours in NY back in 1988. I was a big fan of theirs back then and almost in awe.Pleasure to Kill was a game-changer. I saw them a few months ago here in Houston and it was almost like a completely different band. Very European stadium-like performance at the House of Blues. I much prefer the old underground version, but I did appreciate hearing the old classics.
Alas, poor Yorick. I knew him, Horatio...
Most owls don't know my name. They keep saying "who?"Leroy Hoard said:
Yes, you should be. They are very polarizing though, so you're not alone. They're still making great records.
Nah....they are like the acdc of thrash...ever song is pretty much the same....not my cup of tea
I don't understand where you're coming from with that at all. I've mostly just heard complaints about the singer. If you don't like him, then you won't like overkill, but I don't get the everything sounds the same angle.
At least a 70% chance that i was, but I don't remember anything about it at first glance. Do you recall the venue?
So NYHC and CTHC gets a nod here? Love it. Didn't realize before that this was the initial "Is ---- a metal band thread?" Awesome.
I'm embarrassed. I missed Gojira at the Metallica show in San Diego. Specifically thought of you as Avenged Sevenfold played because we got there late due to family concerns.
Definitely there. I don't think I missed a central Jersey show throughout the 90s if there were bands I liked on the bill.
They are not. Neither is Murphys Law or H2O. But the show was still awesome.
Doh! That blows. I saw Metallica in Oakland a few years ago, and the security was so slow I missed all of The Sword and part of Lamb of God. I was trying to talk a fellow Gojira fanatic into seeing that San Diego show. If it's the one I'm thinking of, there was a special package where you got backstage and got to meet the band. Alas, he wasn't up for that.rockaction said:I'm embarrassed. I missed Gojira at the Metallica show in San Diego.

Guess you'll have to drive up to San Francisco and see them with me next time they're hererockaction said:I'm embarrassed. I missed Gojira at the Metallica show in San Diego. Specifically thought of you as Avenged Sevenfold played because we got there late due to family concerns.
No, I know they're not considered metal, but they should be. Maybe I'm thinking of Hatebreed, but I think I'm thinking of Madball.AcerFC said:
I saw them under that name in a club called My Father's Place on Long Island and then the next night at Radio City.that really scratches the itch on my soft, white underbelly
never had the pleasure, but that was one legendary jernt - seemed like every other commercial i heard about music back then always ended with "appearing at My Father's Place this coming Saturday"
Definitely. Lots of big acts would play there. It was my only time there though and I nearly got pummeled by a bunch of bikers. The club had this pit area in front of the stage that was lower than the rest of the club. Around it was a railing to keep people from falling in. During the show, I apparently was pushing the railing back and forth, getting into the music, and didn't realize I hit someone with it in the head that was in the lower pit. Some guy comes up to me saying that I hit someone in the head with a pipe and I was like, wtf are you talking about. That's when I realized that a lot of people were looking at me. The guy advised me that i should probably gtfo. Once i noticed that a lot of the guys in the area were wearing colors, i decided to take him up on his advice. I grabbed my friends and said it was time to go but one friend didn't follow. I had to go back in to get him. I grabbed a tire iron or crow bar or whatever it was from the trunk of the car and put it up the sleeve of my MC and went back in. He was standing next to the sound board watching the audio guy do his thing. I grabbed him and dragged him out. We ran to the car and just as we drove away, like 20 guys come spilling out of the club, looking around. Thankfully the pipe up my sleeve was never used upside my head which no doubt would have been the outcome.
