    Here's a recent gig of KK playing Victim of Changes: And here's Richie playing it recently: KK's playing with a ton of heart and passion, as you said, but so is Richie. Where KK is mindlessly shredding, Richie is shredding with purpose (and melody). I'd also argue Richie is doing the...

    Iron Maiden Tour 2025 - Discussion

    You're not the first person to show up here with "inside info" who "can't and won't" reveal sources. Not calling you a liar or trying to criticize you, but it is what it is: you will be met with skepticism and suspicion. Definitely, this is a place for discussion. I would say that you have a...

    He's a moderator. It's literally his job to keep threads on track and to keep folks from buying into baseless claims and "insider" information with no actual facts presented. Also, he's right. I'm not trying to "bring down the thread" either, but here's the facts: 1. You make a lot of...

    The Greatest Metal Song Cup - Part II, Round 2, Matches 16-21

    I don’t know anything about Rose Tattoo, but I enjoyed Nice Boys other than the dumb “rock n roll” lyrics. Basic bluesy hard rock played with a punk attitude. The Zoo is much cooler, though. Chainsaw Charlie is as overwrought as pretty much all WASP songs that I’ve heard. Good stuff throughout...

    I agree with Aces High, I think they're done with it. RTTH is still possible cause Bruce can just kinda talk/act through the verses.

    Hot damn, when that riff drops...what a moment! These guys look like they're having so much fun.

    JUDAS PRIEST ALBUM RANKING GAME: #14 REVEALED

    Alright, things are starting to look up! Now, before I get too ahead of myself, let's be clear: Ram It Down is an absolute misfire of an album from start to finish. The band sounds like they have no idea what they want to make here: a heavy metal album, a glam metal album, or just a bag of...

    The Future Past Tour 2024

    Sure, I suppose This was my vote. It would be so cool for Maiden to take these guys out, especially now that they have much catchier, shorter songs. Heh. Hehe. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH.

    The Future Past Tour 2024

    The difference, as usual, is that Maiden has far better management. The Hu is a diverse band that might help sell tickets. Saxon and Uriah Heep fans are already also fans of Judas Priest. You're pulling from the same group of fans Not all fans of The Hu are inherently fans of Iron Maiden, but...

    The Future Past Tour 2024

    A band that has singles with pop/metal acts like Serj Tankien, Papa Roach and Halestorm? The band that just did co-headlining tour with Asking Alexandria last fall? The band that has played every major metal festival in the last four years? The band that toured arenas with Five Finger Death...

    Really cool to see. Satch is such a great guy. Can't wait to hear the new song!

    The Hu, huh? Interesting choice, for once.

    The Greatest Metal Song Cup - Part II, Round 2, Matches 16-21

    I love the music in Angry Again, but the vocals veer a bit too much into Sweating Bullets territory (not that there’s anything wrong with that). Overall, it’s a killer tune. Catchy as hell chorus, too. Shame it never made it on a proper album. Angel of Death is a really cool song, too, I just...

    JUDAS PRIEST ALBUM RANKING GAME: #14 REVEALED

    Point of Entry is such a nothing record. If you turn it on and tune it out, you’ll have a pleasant enough listening experience, I guess, but it’s biggest sin is being incredibly boring. Heading Out to the Highway is great fun and Desert Plains is awesome, but both still fall short of being...

    The Greatest Metal Song Cup - Part II, Round 2, Matches 16-21

    Paranoid is easily the more classic and renowned song in the first match, but that doesn't make it better. Like Iron Man, it gets a bit dull. Fight Fire With Fire is nowhere near a top Metallica song, but it's more interesting than Paranoid. Keeper of the Seven Keys is more instrumentally...
