Yeah....an invasion of snow.

And just to clarify....yes, I know those are lyrics.

Sabaton's vocalist has a really, really heavy accent Doesn't make the song less cool, though.

Try to find one occasion where he pronounced "j" like English "j", and not like English "y".

 

[Dr. Eddies Wingman]

Or pronounced "v" and "w" differently? Failing to do so is a very common mistake in Scandinavia, because the English "w" sound is not used in Norwegian or Swedish.

 

[Perun]

Or in German.

On a completely different note: This list needs more "Where Eagles Dare".

Are you pioneering the use of Maiden in medicine, Wingman? First SSOASS and now this.

The first thing I'd do if I had enough money and no neighbours would be buying a drum kit for the exact same reason. It also helps relieve stress.

was there ever a discussion on this forum as to why Maiden wasn't in the big 4 line back when the "big 4" where doing their world tour?

 

[Mosh]

No, because they were never part of the big 4. Not even close.

 

[TheSeventhSonRoberto]

why not? when it comes to heavy metal it's Maiden &Sabbath then everybody else
I don't know what you would consider Anthrax thrash metal? I mean we're pulling hairs here aren't we?

 

[Moon Child]

The Big 4 of thrash metal. Last time I checked, Maiden isn't thrash. Neither is Sabbath.

 

[TheSeventhSonRoberto]

metallica &megadeth are thrash?

 

[Mosh]

Yea. From wiki:
Thrash metal's "Big Four", the four bands widely regarded as the genre's most successful and influential acts, are Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth, and Anthrax[3] due to their status as pioneers of the genre in the 1980s. Some common characteristics of thrash metal are fast guitar riffs with aggressive picking styles and fast guitar solos, and extensive use of two bass drums as opposed to the conventional use of only one, typical of most rock music.

 

[Moon Child]

Yes, they are considered thrash metal bands or at least they use to be when they first started...

 

[Mosh]

Pretty sure they're still considered thrash. Dunno what would change that.

 

[Moon Child]

The fact that their sound has changed through the years with various albums. Maybe more so Metallica. I'm not sure about the other 3 and how their sounds have changed, if at all.

 

[TheSeventhSonRoberto]

what would you consider metallica in load-some kind monster years?
