Tundras live: Old men yelling at old men about taxes

I wasn't joking.

 

Five Finger Death Punch is better than Kid Rock

 

Unpopular, but correct, opinion. Metallica is extremely overrated with the exception of their first two albums.

 

FTFY

 

Megadeth is better than Metallica anyway.

 

This is absolute truth

 

Trust

 

Not my fault he has inferior taste.

 

On the flip side, I've been awake since about 3:30.

 

Today is the first day I'm sort of normal. This is day 12.

 

You might want to rephrase that comment. Don’t you mean today is the first day you are on a normal schedule?

 

A good refresher on last year.

Both have a place in my playlist, as does Slayer and Anthrax.
I like that Megadeth has (mostly) maintained their signature style of thrash throughout, but Mustaine’s voice drives me nuts. I picture Beavis grunting through a raucous shit while trying to “sing”

Metallica has definitely taken a wandering (and sometimes questionable) path. But I’ve also enjoyed all of the different iterations of Metallica in different ways, which is why I think overall they are my favorite artist. They haven’t just tried to remix the same recipe. But as @Blue Thunder can attest - the arena stops head banging when pretty much anything post Black album is played at their concerts. But there are still tunes in there that have constant rotation in my “Anger Management” playlist.

Anthrax, my favorites are still the early years and the John Bush era. Can’t say I’ve listened much to anything released after him.
And Slayer I came to appreciate later in life…I always liked their music but the vocal style always turned me off. Less of their songs are in my regular rotation, but there are a few.

Took me a while to warm up to Slipknot too (but I always was a fan of Stone Sour). There’s a fair amount of it I still don’t really listen to, but there are a lot of their songs I needed to sit and listen to more carefully to hear the layers that come from so many musicians overlaid…when I’m trying to dig deep in a workout, Slipknot is definitely one of the bands in the queue (along with some Five Finger Death Punch).

 

Not to take anything away from anything else you said but I don't think I could ever choose a single favourite artist.

 

Who was that?

 

First day I don't feel sick.

 

I heard Pain Killer by Judas Priest at the tender age of 12 (45 now) and have been chasing that power metal feeling ever since.
Used to really like Bullet for my Valentine and this chat made me pull them up on spotify. Still pretty decent imo.
