Vader for a Dad who hates rock.

[False Joe]

Essentially my Dad hates rock. The closest he gets to it is being inspired to Limewire himself Slow Ride by Foghat after hearing it on GH3 once when I was playing it.

I bought a Vader shirt. My dad, as expected said "What the bloody hell is Vader?"
Me: "Polish death metal band"
"Polish? Who supports something from Poland?"

And the other day he saw me wearing and said
"I should really give them a listen?"
Me: "Why?"
"Just to see what they're like".

Not being in the position of hearing their entire catalogue of songs, what is Vader's cleanest (Production wise), catchy, song?

Don't expect him to like it, but it's worth a pot.

 

[Faint]

Shouldn't you have some idea of the song your looking for if you bought yourself a Vader t-shirt?

Anyway, I'd go with Wings or God Is Dead. The Book is also a kickass song.

The Nomad is pretty catchy and a damn good song. For their new, which is probably better produced, Amongst the Ruins and The Book are some of Vader's best songs.

This is the war that we've been waiting for

Yeah, but some of my favourites songs are not particularly dad friendly.

May try him with This is the War from the Art of War EP then.
Pretty clear. Nothing too over the top, ie. God is Dead.

If you do use This is the War, be sure to play him the orchestral intro too (can't remember the name). Shit's epic.

 

[Gold]

god is dead
hallelujah

 

[Koude Haat]

god is dead
hallelujah

this

 

[ohiogrinder]

what kind of music does your dad like?

 

[The Ozzman]

If he hates rock, he'll probably hate Vader

 

[ohiogrinder]

metal nowadays is so removed from traditional rock that its its own entity altogether.

 

[The Ozzman]

Well, I'd like to know why exactly he doesn't like rock

 

[Belligerent]

:zombie:A father over the age of 35 who doesn't like Zeppelin, Sabbath etc?

Really the only Vader album I like.

"Polish? Who supports something from Poland?"

Who the hell says something like this?

My favorite Vader songs are:

The Sea Came in at Last
What Color is Your Blood
Warlords
Predator
Xeper
Reign Forever World

 

[Zephyrus]

The Code

 

[Tonka Time]
