hahahaha...now ya sound like me growing up, but then, I'm also listening to C' chamber, slipknot, soulfly and a craaapton of alternative, speed metal and other harder stuff now too.... I was listening to similar way back, starting with yes, argent, hendrix, uriah heep, king crimson, zep, sabbath, etc in the mid to late 60's before breaking into the 70's, the 80's stuff and then some.... later on, when my kid came over on the weekends, he listened to a ton of stuff I had playing, let alone what I practiced for my ol' metal band... before I knew it, he was asking for metallica, maiden, priest and a few other's albums when he was growing up, and he's still listening to the same music as I do....he's 25 now and getting ready to ship down to Fort Horn in texas w/ the army....
I was never into bands like Korn. I have heard of Coal Chamber but I havent heard their music before tonight. Just not really a fan of that. But its cool to see we have a Celebrity Dad on here!! I grew up in the 70's. So I like bands like KISS, Aerosmith and bands like that. I also like the Hair Metal Bands. Ratt, LA Guns, Motely Crue and Faster .....cat to name a few. But my all time favorite bands are KISS ( seen them live over 50 times) Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Ratt, Angel and my new favorite. VOLBEAT!!! Love these guys. If you have never heard them. The best way to describe their sound is if Elvis, Metallica and Johnny Cash had a child it would be Volbeat! A little Metal with some Rockabilly thrown in the mix! Yes Im an old man and yes I still listen to Metal. Ill never forget going to a local club to see Anthrax. I was in the bathroom and some kid looked at me and said arent you a little old to be here? I just looked at him and said...Kid I was listening to these guys before you were born! He shut up. Never said another word. I just walked out. I always said I will be in a wheel chair and still rocking out!!! \m/ \m/
