Not much in the way of metal for me except getting Kings of Metal by Manowar.
Upon listening, it is evident that the album name is false advertising.
Except for the glorious Hail and Kill.
Also, track listing for new Axel Rudi Pell album for anyone that cares. You know, me and anyone who actually appreciates musical talent. Or, you know, if Kidd wants to make fun of the song titles or anything, I don't really care.
1. Fly To The Moon
2. Strong As A Rock
3. The Masquerade Ball / Casbah
4. Drum Solo
5. Tear Down The Walls
6. Mystica
7. Rock The Nation
8. The Temple Of The King
9. Fool Fool
10. Call Her Princess
I have but four complaints.
One, where the fuck is the shit from Oceans of Time?
Two, how many times can you have a song with 'Rock' or lyrics in the title before it becomes boring?
Three, why the drum solo? We get enough of the (sub par) drums on the albums. There have been but 2 bass solos on the albums, and they were amazing. What's wrong with a bass solo? Why the fucking drums.
Oh yeah, and the drummer is the same guy from Tarja Turunen's solo project.
And four, don't the following lyrics strike anyone as...odd(?) for a Power Metal band?
Sheila, a rockin' girl
You can feel the power
Dressed in black
And rides hour after hour
Yeah, we all know
Ooh, they call her Princess
Ooh, she's the hottest bitch in town
Ooh, they call her Princess
Yeah, she's the hottest bitch in town
It scares me a bit.
