Best bands that you're not listening to.

on the more indie side of things...

The Walkmen. I just saw them live for about the 6th time last night. They are a great band.

Do Make Say Think

I Mother Earth.

I'm listening to Scenery & Fish right now. I forgot what a great disc it is from start to finish. Used to be Alright still pops up on some of my old mixes when I'm driving. Great throwback.

I can't be the only guy that listens to the hair bands, can I?

[yrhmblnr8r 69]

Dig is one of my favourite pre-game psych-up songs. Play it loud on your way to the rink and you're itching to hit the ice.

Hell no.....been rockin alot of Dokken lately.

[chippa13 1844]

Nice. Latest cd is the best since the split.

[eric42434224 1]

Havent listened to much of the later stuff.

I listen to everything up to Dysfunctional.

Lately been rockin Dio - Holy Diver, and alot of old Priest (pre-turbo) and Maiden (pre somewhere in time) too.

[chippa13 1844]

Dysfunctional was the start a short stream of bad albums. The latest, Lightning Strikes Again, finally gets back to a real Dokken sound. Erase the Slate is decent and Hell to Pay is pretty good, as well.

[eric42434224 1]

I really like Dysfunctional. Inside Looking Out & Hole In My Head are very good songs.

I have been on a retro metal kick lately. Really good stuff for working out.

Here are some more: Accept, Tesla, & Savatage :)

Frank Zappa, doubt too many people are listening to him anymore. Oh and Black Sabbath-Master of Reality. Their best album in my opinion.

[Chadd 916]

I was playing around on google and found some videos from an old friend's band. Lots of 80s and 90s covers and a couple originals as well. I miss the days of hanging out in the bar until 3AM at 18 or 19 years old with those guys. There was a solid, traveling fan base as well. The camera wasn't in the best place to get a good mix but it gives you an idea.

Norwegian Recycling, not really a band, just a dude who meshes songs together but actually make them amazing

If you want to start a Dio versus Ozzy war, I'll be your huckleberry. Mob Rules!

I got a few. I could combine the interests of three of my favorite bands and still get no reception from members of this forum. Anyone have all the albums from either Aldo Nova, Del Amitri or The Rainmakers?

Ozzy takes it. Dont get me wrong though...Dio is f-ing awesome, and Holy Diver is amazing. But the sheer volume of great stuff Ozzy did with Sabbath and solo just has to get the win. It is more of a product of the band as a whole.

But if I had to choose a voice to front my metal band....Dio....hands down.

[Big Glove Save 0]

That is a good point. Based on the number of albums recorded with the two seperate vocalists. Ozzy has the upper hand and to be honest I can not say that Mob Rules is a clear victor over Black Sabbath. Dio Sabbath's live version of "Heaven And Hell" from Live Evil is one of the best live recordings in my opinion.

I listen to Holy Diver far more often than Blizzard Of Oz and Diary Of A Madman combined. Ozzy has a superb guitarist indeed on those two but Dio's voice and conviction are the better instrument in that comparison in my opinion.

No doubt. Great Radio Controversy, right?

I dont think Accept even had a peak...LOL. Balls to the wall was a fun song when you are 14 though!

Savatage has been hit and miss for decades. Some crap....some amazing stuff. They changed after the guitarist (singers brother) died.

Anpother one I used to like.....KROKUS!!!!! LOL

Headhunter was a great album!
