Up The Irons! Heavy metal appreciation thread.

Welcome hidden and non hidden metal heads of enworld. Here we can gather and discuss everything metal! All types, from power to pirate, from black to neoclassical, and from thrash to folk! Talk about your favorite bands, most iconic riffs, what music goes great witi pinot noir. Whatever you want. Just no glam...I swear to the gods that the first person that says "Cherry Pie is my favorite song" will get a visit from "Buisness Cat" with a cease and desist letter. Oh yeah...cues air guitar

Okay so if it is not obvious I am a huge Iron Maiden fan. I mean I like a kot of bands, but they have always been my favorite. Ever since a young Whisper-Kitten bought a copy of Killers from the record store at the mall. From how the Ides of March built right into Wrathchild I was hooked. It is still one of my favorite albums, and a top 5 Maiden album. Bruce is a better vocalist, but Paul was more suited to this album. Anyway, this was my intro into a music world that has been part of me for 30 years now.

I lean into prog metal and power metal these days- Blind Guardian is one of my favorite "DnD Metal" bands. Loving Myrath lately for some North African influence. I've been a big Dream Theater guy since Images and Words. And I'm going to see Geoff Tate for his last "full play through of Operation Mindcrime" concert in September.

I'm the age of hair metal. I miss the comparative fun of it to a lot of modern styles. Not that it isn't still out there ( Nanowar of Steel, Gloryhammer, etc. ) but still a small portion.

My current favorite song is Jee Veray

I saw Queensryche when they and Rob Halford opened for Iron Maiden. I really love Myrath as well, they have a cool sound with the mix of local musical influence with their metal.
