Chill music to keep everyone relaxed.

Pretty difficult to think of a definition that would include both these songs:

You can tell straight away that both of those songs are heavy metal. There isnt anything varied about those songs from other metal.

It wont play in my region dude

The only thing they share in common is a distorted guitar tone.

Out of curiosity, how would you classify this?

Sounds like faith no more meets burzum

 

[Sirjack]

wouldn't shite be an appropriate noun?

 

[Krow]

Anybody find it curious that Rusty Water disappeared for a while, then reappeared exactly when CIG did?

It's also probably notable that his only purpose since joining has been to incite arguments in this thread.

The change from hard rock to heavy metal was visually defined by the wearing of studded wristbands and the headbanging and moshpits. There was none of that with deep purple and rush and others. The moshpit is heavy metal era.

You seem to keep popping up to post your opinion of me causing arguments. If you see the discussion that people in here have been having tonight as an argument, then that reflects your own mind. There is no arguing here.

In spite of your best efforts, lol.

Eh??

 

[Elric of Melniboné]

I have been referring to the Judas Priest type Heavy Metal.

Plenty of melody in Judas Priest. One of the more blatant examples is below. This isn't atypical of the music on their first few albums.



There's nothing sort of melodic about this. It's loaded with melody.

 

[Internally Deformed]

Stop feeding it.

@Internally Deformed I think rusty was tempbanned at the same time as me.

 

[MrTagoMago]

Who else was shocked when they first listened to Sad Wings and heard this song pop up? I was much younger t the time and rather immature so I thought it was a joke.

 

[rusty water]

Mr TagoMago. that is an incongruous song. The beginning of it, the piano reminded me of `changes` from Sabbath volume 4. There is a riff Sabbath used that Im sure Priest copied for their `breaking the law` riff, it was part of the `Dirty Women ` riff or something they played from an early song of theirs, I cant recall which one at the moment, but it is identical. This Judas Priest track is an excellent bit of song writing,I was expecting from the intro from it to hear Halford start singing the first few lines of `cheers` ( where everybody knows your name ) theme tune.

I will say this about that song, it demonstrates Halfords wonderful vocal range and ability, I bet he cant sing like that anymore. He has a great voice there. The guitarist is using a blues scale very effictively in the song too, it is used in a similar way to how David Gilmour plays them. Thanks for the song link, I enjoyed that.

 

[EspaDa]

It's their all time best song. Halford cant sing like that anymore but there's a live video of that song on youtube, only one.

 

[rusty water]

Aye, this one from the old grey whistle test

The guitarists both using SG`s there. Maybe it is true that `the Ripper` was written about a type of fart that Halford likes to do where he forces his bottom into the chair and raises one of his buttocks and lets rip.
