Ok... In the last couple of weeks I've bought heaps of albums and I'm bored so I think I will bore everyone else now with my views on them hahaha (if I remember them all).
I've been going a bit nuts at 2nd hand vinyl stores... and picking up lots of nice records hehehe. I must stop because I'm going very very broke.
WASP - The Headless Children (Picture Vinyl!!)
This was only $11 !!! Hehehe.. my 3rd favourite WASP album after self titled and The Crimson Idol. Killer!
Skid Row - Slave To The Grind
Already had it on CD but I'd never seen it on vinyl and for $5 I thought I should add it to my collection. May I also add that I find that the vinyl sounds better and somehow the guitars and everything seem chunkier and its heavier overall.
Anthrax - Spreading The Disease
Now THIS is a classic thrash metal album!!!!! Every song just rips, the riffs are awesome, great vocals, very catchy.... yeah!! I probably like Among The Living a *little* bit better, but not much.
Kiss - Asylum
Ok I've mentioned this already since I got it last week... this is now one of my favourite Kiss albums, no fillers here except maybe track 2, which is rare for 80s Kiss. Brilliant album, exceptional drumming from Eric, Van Halen styling shredding from Bruce, and all Paul's songs in particular are SO catchy! Radar For Love is now one of my fave Kiss songs ever! Oh.. did I mention that this is now signed by Bruce Kulick??? Hehe.
Iron Maiden - Piece Of Mind
Had it on CD, its my favourite Maiden album.... $5 gatefold vinyl in great condition, can't go wrong! This also sounds better on vinyl than my remastered CD in my opinion. What the hell is the backwards message before Still Life though?? I played it backwards and I think its in another language haha!
Megadeth - Killing Is My Business...and Business Is Good!
Was never a big fan of this on CD, it must've been a bad transfer to CD, I wonder if the remaster is better, but that doesnt have These Boots. Or maybe it just makes the poor production more noticable. But somehow this RIPS on vinyl!!! Killer stuff, and I now love this album.
Quiet Riot - Condition Critical
Wow! This is really cool 80s stadium metal, Twisted Sister style. This is much better than their previous album "Metal Health" I think, which is seen as the more classic one... and I also think this is better than Twisted Sister's "Stay Hungry" which came out the same year as this and was much more popular.
AC/DC - Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap
Not as good as Highway To Hell or Let There Be Rock, but an excellent Bon Scott era album all the same! Jailbreak, Problem Child and Dirty Deeds are brilliant, and how hilarious is Big Balls!!!! Hahahah!
Hear 'N' Aid - Stars (12" Single)
This was recorded in 1986 for charity, killer song written by Dio! Here are some artists who perform on this song:
Dio, Dokken, Rough Cutt (all members of those 3 bands), Yngwie Malmsteen, Vince & Mick from Motley Crue, Chris and Blackie from WASP, Adrian and Dave from Iron Maiden, Halford from Judas Priest, Geoff Tate from Queensryche, Kevin DuBrow and Paul Shortino who both sang for Quiet Riot, Eddie from Twisted Sister, Brad Gillis who played with Ozzy.... and more! Obviously it is an amazing song!
Iron Maiden - Live After Death
Had this on CD already, but WOW!! Only $12... double gatefold vinyl, both records still in original slipcases, and with original booklet. All in mint condition!!!! Don't need to mention how good this is!
Alice Cooper - Raise Your Fist And Yell
This is the best Alice album along with Trash! It's brilliant!! nasty 80s metal/shock rock at its best!
Alice Cooper - From The Inside
The cover of this is so cool!!! It has little doors you open to reveal Alice behind it in a straight jacket in the room, etc... plus other doors and everything, its so much fun! Hahah! I'm listening to it for the first time now, it sounds pretty cool. Nurse Rozetta has the funniest lyrics EVER!
Hehehe... I gotta go back for a few things too. Dixons rocks!
