Metal head here

Far too many albums out there to give you a top ten never mind one

I am listening to a lot of Opeth, Dream Theater, Baroness at the moment

Also heavily into instrumental bands like Mogwai, Russian Circles and going along to see Toska next month for the second time this year

Gotta add in 65 days of static in the instrumental bands.

Got nightwish on heavy rotation just now.

I’d read about them and thought I’d check them out. “Symphonic rock” they call it.

Can’t believe they’ve been going so long and I’d never heard them.

Pisses me off though when bands do “uk tour” that’s just London, Birmingham and Manchester.

Currently listening to very little "mainstream" and going for the less well known.

Massive Wagons

Oh and I've got a sneaky bit of bluegrass from The Dead South sneaking into the playlist

Y&T are supporting Saxon at the barras on October 18th. Wayward sons also on the bill.

I went to that monsters of rock tour and left early cos whitesnake were awful. A drum solo three songs in ...lord protect me!

Y&T and Gary Moore were great though.

Love Prog and possibly the most listened to genre in my house.

Rush....not quite my cuppa though I’m the only drummer I know who thinks Peart is over-rated

Dream Theater...Portnoy and more recently Mangini are both better drummers than Neil.

James LaBrue’s vocals are starting to let him down now. Still an excellent band

Big rock fan. All the usual suspects mentioned already especially a resurgence in AC/DC and Queen due to needing to educate my kiddos.

A lot of bands mentioned I'll need to check out though (finger well off the pulse).

Anyone going to The Storm Returns with Magnum and Gun headlining? I hummed too long and it's now sold out. Magnum a big guilty pleasure.

Thanks to the many of you who mentioned Bad Wolves. Had heard their "Zombie" cover a few times when Deezer played it for me, but hadn't heard the album proper. Just listened to it this afternoon, and it's good.

And I listen to too many bands of pretty much all metal genres to start listing them all...

Having a real Machine Head urge recently, and been going through their back catalogue (on repeat!), after the break-up scare a week or two ago.

Bands with brand new-albums I highly recommend checking out:

Revocation - The Outer Ones

Omnium Gathering - The Burning Cold

Fit For A King - Dark Skies

Darian Malakian and Scars on Broadway - Dictator

Mycelia - Apex
