One of the most powerful songs I've heard this year...

[JenniferLynn]

Hell as far as IE goes the Gettysburg disc is by far my fave "story" of historical note...

'When the Eagle Cries' was a poose-gimpler too

I purchased THC yesterday, but I've not spun it yet. The Crimson Idol wasn't handy, so it will be a purchase to be made at a later date.

Every metal fan should own Crimson Idol. Their best, hands down. The debut is my second fave though, then Headless Children.

 

[edgeofthorns]

Well, I wanted to follow up with my WASP venture. Over the weekend, I purchased two of the 2 disc packages of the band's. The first disc has the debut and The Last Command on it. The second contains Inside The Electric Circus and The Headless Children. I have to be honest and say that I now LOVE this band! I've totally overlooked them over the years and I really have no idea why? I think the Last Command is my favorite thus far, because it's just straight ahead, fist pumpin' hard rock. Songs like Ballcrusher, Widowmaker, and Blind In Texas just make me want to throw up the horns and thank the good Lord that he made me a metalhead! With that said, I've yet to hear The Crimson Idol, so that's my next WASP purchase when I come across it.

Are there any new thoughts on the latest disc, since some of you have had a chance to digest it now? Glenn...anyone else?

My vote for most powerful song of the year... Redemption's "Memory".

[Purveyor Of Evil]

So far this year MACHINE HEAD's "Aesthetics of Hate" has really hit me. That tune rips and spews so much venom.

 

[mëtålspëd]

Bump. I haven't purchased "Dominator", but I have been hearing it in heavy rotation on a certain webradio station. Good stuff. Where does it rank for you now, Glenn?

I am so glad that this post was made. I have been a fan of W.A.S.P. from the beginning and have never stopped loving Blackie's writing style from day one. The only cd that I think was not up to par was Helldorado. Live Blackie still brings it hard and is a force to be reckoned with. I have also seen every tour since the beginning and age has not hurt Blackie.

Good news is that the 15th Anniversary of Crimson Idol is coming up and Blackie is going to do an Anniversary tour for that cd. Check out www.waspnation.com for more info.
