Gehennah - Piss off, I'm Drinking
As with all Gehennah, it's the lyrics that make this song. "Suddenly she stood there close to me, a woman too grotesque to even be!". I can't count the amount of times I've drank to excess with Hardrocker as the soundtrack, too often in the company of rank degenerates I'd be better off not knowing. 8/10
ZZ Top - Beer Drinkers and Hellraisers
This rules. I'm embarrassed that I haven't heard it before. 8/10
Kawir - Hail Bacchus
A unique choice. Hats off to whoever submitted this. Although Kawir aren't quite up there with the best Hellenic black metal bands (I prefer their very early, very typical material), I can't deny this, and it fits the theme surprisingly well. 7/10
Tankard - Need Money For Beer
Beer and thrash. It's entertaining. 6/10
Thin Lizzy - I've Got to Give it Up
I think this conveys the misery of alcoholism fairly well. Lynott's voice is perfect for the theme and the music... well, it's Thin Lizzy. 8/10
Brocas Helm - Drink and Drive
So inspirational it could almost convince you that drinking and driving is a really good idea. Classic. 8/10
Alestorm - Drink
Thankfully this insipid rubbish is mercifully short. Points for fitting the theme. 2/10
Faustcoven - Whisky Demon
I'm glad this was included. It's unique, gloomy and there is absolutely no hope. 8/10
Sarcofago - Alcoholic Coma
Still nasty enough in the riffs/drums department, but I miss the sheer chaotic psychosis of I.N.R.I every time I listen to it. There are moments where it feels like they're about to lose control but it unfortunately never gets there. The quality of the video in the playlist is shit btw. 7.5/10
Iron Void - Demon Drink
First time hearing this. Decent! Particularly enjoying the miserable section in the middle. 7/10
Cross Examination - Blackout
Impressively obnoxious vocalist. Everything about this sounds like shit. The sample at the end... my god. 2/10
Black Flag - Six Pack
I'm not interested in hardcore punk. I can almost appreciate this for what it is. Almost. 5/10
Barbatos - Satanik Beer
Amusing band but this sort of thing needs to be considerably more unhinged to actually work. 5/10
Acid Bath - Cheap Vodka
The angst! This is actually the first time (and likely the last) I've ever listened to Acid Bath. I didn't hate it but it's definitely not for me. 5/10
Candlemass - Epistle No. 81
One of the best songs on Ancient Dreams. I had no idea it was related to alcohol. Someone might have to explain that to me. 8/10
Metallica - Whiskey in the Jahhhrrro
I fucking hate this cover. 2/10
Saint Vitus - Dying Inside
Good job sticking this at the end of the playlist. One of Vitus' best songs, and probably my favourite alcohol related song of all time. A staple for drunken nights and even drunker mornings. "I have ruined my soul." 10/10
