i thank you both for your replies. They were both enlightening and made me feel a bit ignorant of the whole situation. True i really cant empathise with anything regarding the culture over there as i have never been. but i would have never thought- with a common thread of metal- that peoples worlds could be so far apart...again feelin' a little ignorant. Obviously i have no idea how it is over there...i've loved this music ever since i discovered it for myself 26 years ago i'm not into it for anything other than true passion and love of it-but it is obviously on a whole other level over there
i like to think i'm a pretty humble and down to earth person but i'm sure whenever i make it over there for a festival ...my eyes will be opened even further...this is just more proof that we never stop learning...well guys sorry for the rambling and thanks again
Mr. BrooksinDenver.... ramble all you want Sir. Your question flushed out answers that were educational and compelling. This one learned a lot and have Thee to thank for it... bright smile... so... Thank Thee for asking the question...
... and Thank Thee Mr. G and Sir MMC for answering such a question with respect and thoughfulness. One can get use to the sarcasm often displayed or arrogance barely veiled that general keeps topics superficial... it is refreshing to be among genuine lovers of a Genre where such displays aren't necessary and all gain benefit from what is offered....
... curtsey to the Gentlemen... therefore ... Thank Thee...
I've always felt that Saxon are an underrated band. Yeah they put out some stinkers in the 80's. Had messy lineup changes (There's two Saxons ) and they never could reach the same heights as their NWOBHM contemporaries... But despite all that! They've stuck around and are still a very good band.
Ms. Amanda! Remember them? heck yea!
:: feel a headbanging moment coming on...
guitar in hand... mid-back-length hair
ripples like the black sea preening for a
shampoo commercial ... do a mean riff...
grabs mic...twists neck slowly... then screams ... ::
...they say I'm different!
well I'm not the same...
you say you want
to be like me...
well boy let me tell you,
you didn't know what I've seen...
.... I'm minding
my own business...
I ain't doing
nothing wrong...
I ain't doing
nothing wrong...
shadows follow
So close behind me...
I look in the mirror
I don't like what I see...
Oh God, Can't you help me
get out of here?
I feel like I'm living
deep in hell...
I'm minding
my own business...

( Was an Anthem of mine at one point!
Was it that long ago... Got expose to them

Geezer Butler of Black Sabbath (bassist) created
a band in 1995 called GZR... 1996 they laid a track
for More Kombat called "Outworld" with vocalist
Mario Frasca (Anger on Anger) ...

Album Mortal Kombat: More Kombat
sings: Here's to the mindless Vacant and spineless Forever hollow... they follow and feign
Cheers to our leaders Slick elevated zeros Packaged and plastic they dance for the herd...
Grasping for freedom... you buy a shiny cage
Here's to religion A world built upon exclusion... Scarred by illusion... you'll always obey
And as I walk through the filthy streets... Where all I loved has died... I'll raise my voice here into the sky Now hear my War Cry...
and as I walk...

have had a lifetime of trying to hold on to the
best of the past... heart can support and join
these poets who are angry and cry:
And as I walk through
the filthy streets...
Where all I loved has died...
I'll raise my voice here into the sky
Now hear my War Cry...
.. Thank Thee Mr. MMC for bring such
forward... this one is struck by the tight
musicality of this group... and deeply
touched by their lyrics...
... breathes an invocation to Heaven to
support all the young ones who are trying
to save and rebuild what has been damaged....
Blessed Be those who Love the Earth!
Grave Digger are also fairly underrated. They started off in the 80's, doing straight rowdy Teutonic heavy metal. But over the last few years, have come to put out some excellent themed Albums.

... could feel the intensity of the music with the video ...
felt as if were there... truly with the contrast between
the curving hills and the harsh steeples and fences ...
... can understand the heart of people who have
experienced occupation by a foreign entity regardless
of reason given...
... was moved by the guitar by the rushing stream...
had never considered what instrument could match
and be heard in that place.. but it was phenomenal!..
