I love metal. Really, I do. Three years ago I ignored it and supressed the desire, long since gone from my teenage-dom. I liked no particular music, even though I'm a musician. Just didn't care. But ever since I chanced upon 'Live Insurrection' by Halford, last year sometime, that old fire has returned! And now I simply cannot get enough of it. If I'm not playing a metal album, I'm writing a metal song on my pointy guitar, or maybe asleep dreaming that I'm on-stage with Judas fuckin' Priest (only with no pants on, oddly enough). So - if like me you've re-discovered the force, or maybe you never lost it but need reinvigorating - I want you all to do this: -If you are at work stand on your chair
-If you at home (in a built-up area) open your window and lean out
-If you are at home (in the styx) phone up a stranger
-If you are in a cave with a party of tourists/potholers nearby, even better!
-If you are in a hospital or a cemetary
-Or at the movies during a really important bit of dialogue
-Near a group of small children/nuns
-Anywhere in Utah
-Sitting in a dentist chair undergoing root canal surgery
-Flicking between this site and a jizz-jar site, batting one off on the sly to some Spanish donkey-porn
-The only white guy in a Pool-hall full of angry, hot, drunk and dissafected Mexicans
-The only Mexican in the changing rooms of a WASP-only gym, and you've lost your locker key... ...then... SCREAM YOUR FUCKING LUNGS OUT: I LOVE METAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLL!!!!!! Ok, I'm done now.

Climbing up on desk... "I LOVE METAAAAAAAL!!!!!!" Looks around, everybody is staring at me, cool! Climb back down, log back on to Voivodfan.comAhh, thanks Emlyn! That was much needed! Although my tastes have changed throughout the years, I found that to matter where my musical tastes wonder, METAL has always been a constant presence in my life (and stereo)! Still, IMHO, one of the most relevant sub-genres of rock to exist! I too was told, repeatedly, that when I was older I would grow out of it. Never happened! People who deny their past are the ones who will have a mid-life crisis when they're 50! BTW - Just bought tickets to see the Seattle leg of the Kreator, Destruction, & Celphalic Carnage show! Should be a night of quality METAL! I've heard Kreator's been seriously tearing shit up on this tour!

i'm way over here
i'm w/ you, brotherabout 92, i took a detour into grateful dead land and listened to nothing but bootlegs for a while
i still bought my favorite metal bands disks (and tapes) as they came out: voivod, danzig, slayer, maiden
then about 96, i started listening to my metal tapes again
i didn't buy any new stuff until 98
(i didn't buy anything by a band that formed after 1990 until 2000: cof-midian)
but ever since then, it's been nothing but metal (almost) it takes a certain type of person to be into metal, and we are they
that's the only reason i come here, to converse w/ my metal brethren up the irons!

also, i once had a dream i was jamming in a church choir loft w/ maiden
they had 3 guitarists, but this was before the great reunion, when they actually became a 3 guitarist band
and, i didn't have a pick, so, i was playing the maiden songs w/ my thumb
i don't remember it being hard to do, but i do remember thinking "next time, i get a pick"
kinda weird
it did suck, not having a pick

Yeah, what's in a dream, eh? A few days ago beleive it or not I experienced a rather profound dream which Noitall appeared in! Don't worry Noitall, it was a nightmare and you put the fear of hell right into me!!! Getting back to the topic of this thread, sometimes - it usually happens a couple days after I partake in a serious alcohol intake binge - I experience some rather powerful alcohol withdrawal symptoms which causes me to start doing the chicken big time. This usally causes me to really wonder where the hell things are actually at with myself and sometimes I come to the conclusion that as far as rock or metal goes, where it is really at for me is to drink beer, grow my hair long, wear tight jeans and a leather jacket, and play some rather simple yet powerful AC-DC Back in Black type riffs. During these profound times, really primordial and heavy riffs - the type which causes you to crack your skull wide open - does the trick for me! I love my rock chopped! Chopped rock!

I live for Metal. I fuckin' mean it, Metal music is what fires up my blood and keeps me going. It's my obsession and my passion. Ever since I was 12 and heard Judas Priest doing The Hellion/Electric Eye on the radio I've been hooked. I listen to all kinds of Metal. Thrash, Black, Death, Traditional, Power, Goth, old school, etc. Just no rap shit.  Some I like more than others of course, but it's all got it's place. Except rap shit. That's gotta go.
Metal is the greatest and most diverse form of music ever created. It's one of the only things that justifies our existnce on this chunk of dirt.
Metal rules, period. No questions asked. Metal Meltdown Something's calling
In the night
Electric madness
Roars in sight Heat is rising
Blazing fast
Hot and evil
Feel the blast Out of control
About to explode
It's coming at ya Here comes the Metal Meltdown
Run for your lives
Can't stop the Metal Meltdown
No-one survives Raging fury
Wired for sound
Nitro bombshell
Shakes the ground High and mighty
Rips the air
Piercing lazer
Burning glaze Out of control
About to explode
It's coming at ya Here comes the Metal Meltdown
Run for your lives
Can't stop the Metal Meltdown
No-one survives Temperature is boiling
Magnifying might
Feeding like a virus
Flashing light Imminent collision
Shockwaves all around
Generating energy
Screams so loud It's comin' - Meltdown
Start runnin' - Countdown \m/

Don't worry Noitall, you weren't wearing that wig though I'm sure it would have made my dream more interesting! Actually I experienced yet another one of my back to school nightmares where, despite the fact I have already went through school and graduated from grade 12, I find myself back in elementary school in grade 5 or 6! Here I am, I'm 35 years old and I find myself hanging out with a bunch of 10 and 11 year old kids because for some crazy reason I'm supposed to do the whole school thing again as a refresher! At least I'm acing the courses and annoying the hell out of my young classmates because heck, I've already been there before! Actually Noitall, in this latest dream I find myself and a bunch of other people arrive in a school bus at a certain central location where everyone is supposed to wait for another bus which takes them to highschool. So here I am, I just got off this bus and walk into this waiting area where I come across a fairly large group of people who - get this - are all standing around you. I guess this means that you are the Alpha Female Noitall for everyone seems to be revolving around you. Anyways upon witnessing this and also because I happen to be by myself on this occasion, I become extremly intimidated and anxious yet try to put on a very bold, fearless appearance and quickly and quietly walk by you and your crowd. I then find myself standng off by myself at a corner and looking back at this amazing Noitall lady and her entourage with a great amount of fear and awe on my part! Luckily I woke up shortly afterwords!
