I listen to this while handing out cheese to the whiners (2023 cheese shortage you heard it from me first)
Recently started playing, noticed there’s some old-school love and thought I’d share a couple highlights from my 23+ hour playlist.
@Neo_Gambit Interesting, never heard Extreme before. I’m more of a beard metal person than a hair metal one, if that makes sense. Damn, do they play clean af. The classic rock tone + harmonized singing kinda reminds me of Cheap Trick somehow.
That Stone Temple Pilot hits closer to home with the heavy riff and everybody looking unwash- I mean, looking like all us late 80s kids looked like at this age (^:
Maybe I’m weird. I don’t listen to any music & have it turned off when I’m playing. Well, it’s turned off when I’m playing seriously. When I’m goofing off, I’ll have something playing, but nothing to make the game more engaging.
That being said, I believe every song posted here is right up my alley.
I think I still have my Extreme “III Sides to Every Story” cassette in a box somewhere
That particular song I linked was partially used in “Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure”, but they had a few other hits in the 80’s.
My playlist is all 60’s - 90’s music from Little Richard’s “Long Tall Sally” to Gravity Kills “Guilty”, so it’s a pretty mixed bag.
I’d need some examples of “Beard metal”, because my mind instantly goes to ZZ Top, Motorhead, Judas Priest, etc. and if there’s one thing I’ve learned in my over 40 years on this planet, is that I shouldn’t assume to know what any newly heard definition means - even after Googling it.
Hahaha, Motorhead is definitely beard metal. I’m more into gritty, slow tempo stuff for the most part. Doom metal, drone, sweaty indus, that stuff is super beardy (^:
I probably posted too much Bongripper already and you guys must hate me, so have some russian beard metal
ZZ Top’s a great band. Never recovered from listening to Tres Hombres at a young age. That distortion!
On a serious note, the entire album of Master of Puppets is a grinder perfect for grinding.
