Thread of Metal

[Bob Saccamano]

I know we have some metal heads on BP. I'm looking for some new bands to get into - specifically thrash, stoner, or progressive. Here are some of my favorite songs:

I feel remiss that I didn't mention Sevendust in my first list. :shame on me:

As for Stoner, there's also Kyuss, Fu Manchu, QoTSA, and a number of others.

I like a lot of what would be considered 80's/glam metal, bands like Def Leppard, Poison, RATT, Warrant, Winger, Whitesnake, Firehouse, Cinderella, Dokken, etc.

Probably not a place for them to co-exist with some of the hardcore bands listed in this thread

I saw Poisen open for David Lee Roth and Steve Vai in 198x (can't remember) and CC Devile ran across the stage, tried to jump up on a riser, and fell flat on his face (and guitar). The music was still perfect. Fuck those talentless fuckers...

 

[darbypitcher22]

That sounds like something CC would do back in the day. Seen countless youtube videos of him cracked out on stage.

The guy still has chops and they put on a good show IMO.
