No ones said **Motorhead** yet? what’s wrong with you people? Stay Clean is a fav.

here here! though I’m suprised that someone pulled Blaze era stuff. I just had to put this album on after reading this. though I prefer Lord of the Flies.

At the moment, I’m heavily into John Bush era Anthrax. Crush really gets my engine running and my head banging.

Do any of you listen to the stream from [http://www.knac.com](http://www.knac.com) ? I listen to that all day long at work, it’s the radio station I’ve been waiting my whole life for. They turned me on to more Iron Maiden than I knew existed. I had _The Number Of The Beast_, _Piece Of Mind_, and _Powerslave_ previously, but that was it. Thanks to listening to KNAC I’ve added _Seventh Son of a Seventh Son_, _Live After Death_ and _Fear of the Dark_ to my collection.

Edward, rock on man! John Bush is my new hero, I got hooked on Armored Saint after hearing _The Pillar_, so I ran out and bought the new album. Then I started backtracking through the Anthrax albums he fronted, they’ve become my new favorite CDs. 🙂

Wow, the Savatage “Hall of the Mountain King” reference really threw me!

If you dont get Tool, try listening to Undertow all the way through… Its heroin for the ears.

Personally, my favorite thrashing about songs are Blister in the Sun by the Violent Femmes and…

_drumroll_

Institutionalized by Suicidal Tendancies.

Anyone who can get banned in LA deserves some serious adrenaline.

And of course, you can always headbang to RUSH songs! Yes, it’s possible, you bunch of cynics. Just put on “Cygnus X-1”, the song Max Cavalera (formerly of Sepultura, now Soul Fly) once named as an example of the Ultimate Metal song. It ROCKS. It’s not headbanging all the way, but the last two minutes of the song have to be the Most Rocking Minutes In Rock History Ever. Honestly.

Anything, **ANYTHING** Metallica. I am such a huge fan, you wouldn’t believe. Some of the harder tunes, Battery is great, MOP. I love Godsmack, I’m so glad somebody said Symphony of Destruction by Megadeth. Sabbath, Tool is pretty good but sometimes pretty mellow. I love music…

AC/DC’s Thunderstruck! Every time that I start singing along with the lyrics and making an ass of myself, the rest of the people in the room first look at me as though I’ve just gone insane, but by the end of the song usually almost everyone else in the room has joined in the fun. Even got my grandma to do it once…
