His interpretations are spot on 👍 This is my favorite vid he’s done:

Hey Maniacz! When Metal Collides… Tigertailz welcome phenomenal hard-hitting Power Quest / Dendera front man Ashley Edison as their new vocalist. It’s said certain metals cannot be mixed, they cause corrosion. Surely this is true when trying to meld together a power metal vocalist and the UK’s most prolific Glam Metal band? Jay Pepper: ‘Some things should never happen, and yet when Ashley came to the studio and began singing ‘Sick Sex’, the mountains in Wales started to rumble, an earthquake was happening, and his voice was causing it! From that moment I knew people had to hear it. Ashley singing Tigertailz songs is like a jet engine running on Nitroglycerin!’ Ashley Edison: ‘I am SO excited to be joining the legends in Tigertailz! A band that not only inspired so many but still put on a hell of a show! When I was with Jay singing Sick Sex, everything just felt right and fell into place perfectly! The guys have been so incredible to work with and I can’t wait to get going on some exciting future projects together!’ Today we release Bezerk’s ‘Sick Sex’, reworked and accompanied by a powerful video depicting stereotyping of women and the dark world of S&M.

Quiet Riot - Can’t Hold On

Another solid effort; 2/2 so far. 👍

Mr Snyder’s top 22 of 2022 Keep in mind that he seems to have much more varied tastes than a lot of us here… although I have albums by everyone from Kelly Clarkson to Slayer in my collection, so we all have our varied likes and dislikes. But anyhoo…

Netherlands... down 2 goals... come back and level it in the final minute of stoppage time. To extra time we go! 👏

They need to be getting on those arrogant players. They never looked like they were worried about losing the match… until Croatia’s goalkeeper blocked that first PK, then, all of sudden, they all got that “oh shit” look on their faces. 😂

Announcers made it sound like this was a huge upset, but Croatia were just in the 2018 final where they lost to France, so I’m not a bit surprised by the result.

New single Xanadu Decent, but the bass and guitar “noodling” at the same time sounds a bit “messy” to my ears… still, looking forward to this release.

Perhaps he got a scorching STD from whoring himself out so much? With that said, "Never Gonna Let You Go" is quite tasty.

So, evidently we will have new music from the Scott Rockenfield version of Queensryche next year 😳

Awesome news Cap!

From the Kix FB page: Howdy y'all! Mark from KIX here. We wanted to update you on Jimmy's condition. We all have spoken to Jimmy many times since that day and he left the hospital on Weds the day before Thanksgiving. He is doing well, and expects to be back on stage in February. He has a defibrillator/pacemaker installed under the skin in his chest and he's still pretty sore from that surgery. Other than that he's feeling great and in good spirits. We are all in regular contact with him. Jimmy also wanted to share the details of what happened with you and since I was there, we figured it best to tell it from my perspective. We had just finished "Cold Blood" and were about to go into the last song of the night which is "Fuse". Steve was doing his "are you ready" speil to the crowd and I turned around to start the intro and Jimmy was slumped over his toms with his head down. I thought he was fixing his kick drum pedal. He was not moving and Sam Stilwell (drum tech) was moving towards him to assist with what we all thought was a kick drum pedal issue. I motioned to Sam and said "poke him, poke him" Sam did so and looked back at me and said "not good, not good". Somehow Brandon Dull (guitar tech) appeared back behind the drum riser as well and I said "let's get him off there now and over here" where there was space behind Brian's amp to figure out what was going on. Sam and Brandon carried Jimmy off the riser and laid him down. I checked his neck for a pulse and put my ear to his mouth and nose to see if he was breathing. I looked up at Brandon who was holding his wrist checking for a pulse and with a serious look on his face he said "I got nothing" I replied the same. One of us (don't recall who) flipped open his eyelid and his pupil had no response to the bright stage lights. He was definitely completely unresponsive. Neither Brandon nor I said a word, I just tilted his head back, checked his airway and started giving him rescue breaths and Brandon started chest compressions. At some point, Steve called Jimmy's wife Cathy from the stage and Bob had shouted to his guitar tech Greg Gelles to call 911. The crew held up a drapery so the crowd couldn't see us working on Jimmy. Cathy had run to her neighbors for a ride and was en route with Steve keeping her updated. While Brandon was compressing I kept lightly slapping Jimmy's face saying his name desperately looking for some sign of life. Brandon and I continued to give him some pretty intense CPR until the medics arrived, at one point I heard Jimmy's sternum (or maybe a rib or two) crack while Brandon was doing compressions which is a good thing. I don't know how many CPR cycles we gave him but it seemed like an eternity. I must admit that after a few minutes in, I thought "shit this isn't working, he should be responding, we're losing him". I was scared shitless that our dear friend was going to stay dead right in our hands. Again, he had no pulse and no breathing when we got him to the side stage, white as a ghost with no color in his lips and no response in his eyes. I started another pair of rescue breaths and suddenly I could feel his lungs pushing back on my breaths which means he was starting to breathe on his own. Then he opened his eyes and started to groan but was still unconscious. Brandon got an inconsistent pulse on his wrist and that was what I got from his neck as well. So we kept administering CPR until the medics arrived. Maybe 6-7 minutes had elapsed since he collapsed on his drums. By the time the medics arrived we had revived him somewhat and they took over, hooked up a vitals monitor, put him on an oxygen squeeze bag to assist his breathing and started an IV. I could see on the monitor that his heartbeat was there and strong, though irregular, with good blood pressure and he was still groaning with his eyes open. They decided to hook up an AED and shock him. Same weird looking heartbeat on the monitor. They shocked him again and this time his heartbeat was strong and perfectly regular, still with good blood pressure and good O2 level in his blood. He was stabilized! They put him on a stretcher and took him to a hospital minutes away from the club, INOVA Lansdowne here in Virginia. That gig at Tally Ho Theater was supposed to be a two nighter so the crew started packing up the gear. I went up to the dressing room with tears rolling down my face trying to go over everything in my head, did we do everything right? Did we do everything in the right order? Did we forget something crucial? We were all speechless and it was quite traumatic. It was definitely the most terrifying five minutes of my life! One of the guys who works at the venue is a retired firefighter and one of the medics texted him and let him know that Jimmy was awake, talking, sitting up in bed and moving on his own in the hospital. What a collective sigh of tremendous relief we shared. We all went and saw him in the hospital after and as the medic said, he was fully aware, moving around and laughing a little with his wife Cathy by his side. Jimmy doesn't remember anything from the end of "Cold Blood" to when he awoke in the hospital. Luckily, Brandon is a Nationally and MD State Certified Paramedic and I'm a Master Scuba Diver Trainer, teaching Rescue Diver classes as well as a certified Emergency First Responder Instructor teaching first aid and CPR/AED. We made a good team and were able to save our friend. I don't want to think about what would have happened if we weren't there or if Jimmy was just driving around going about his daily life and cardiac arrest happened. If there is ever a right time and place for such a thing, this was it. Good news is it looks like Jimmy is doing great. The doctors found that the end of a stent that was put in last year had partially collapsed causing his cardiac event. They put a new one in and fixed him right up. He will be perfectly fine and we plan to resume playing shows in February after Jimmy goes through cardiac rehab. The only bad news is we have to reschedule the four remaining shows we had this year. Please, if you have tickets, reach out to the venues, check their Facebook and web sites. Our Agent is already rescheduling those gigs and announcements from the venues are pending. Jimmy would like to thank all of our peers and especially the fans for your concern, and the massive outpouring of genuine love and support. It has been particularly moving for all of us to read your positive comments and messages. So, there you have it! That's what happened! He's ok! We'll see you soon!

OBITUARY Christine McVie, Keyboardist and Singer for Fleetwood Mac, Dead at 79 The singer-songwriter was responsible for some of the group's biggest hits like "Don't Stop" and "Little Lies" BY JON BLISTEIN NOVEMBER 30, 2022 English singer, songwriter and keyboardist Christine McVie of rock band Fleetwood Mac, UK, 18th January 1969.EVENING STANDARD/HULTON ARCHIVE/GETTY IMAGES CHRISTINE MCVIE, THElongtime co-lead vocalist, keyboardist, and songwriter for Fleetwood Mac, has died. She was 79. The band confirmed McVie’s death in a note shared on social media. “There are no words to describe our sadness at the passing of Christine McVie. She was truly one-of-a-kind, special and talented beyond measure. She was the best musician anyone could have in their band and the best friend anyone could have in their life. We were so lucky to have a life with her. Individually and together, we cherished Christine deeply and are thankful for the amazing memories we have. She will be so very missed.” In a statement, McVie’s family said she died today, Nov. 30, at a hospital “following a short illness.” The statement continued: “She was in the company of her family. We kindly ask that you respect the family’s privacy at this extremely painful time, and we would like everyone to keep Christine in their hearts and remember the life of an incredible human being, and revered musician who was loved universally. RIP Christine McVie.” McVie joined Fleetwood Mac in 1970. She went on to write (and co-write) some of the band’s most memorable songs, including the Rumours classics “Don’t Stop” and “You Make Loving Fun,” as well as “Hold Me,” “Little Lies,” and “Over My Head.” Though she stuck with the band through some pretty tumultuous years, especially during the early Nineties, she left the group after their big 1998 reunion tour. After a lengthy hiatus off the stage and out of the public eye, she returned to Fleetwood Mac in 2014 and was playing with them as recently as 2019. Throughout her tenure in Fleetwood Mac, McVie almost seemed like the calm eye in the middle the storm that was the rest of the band. “That is apparently true, but I didn’t realize that at the time,” she quipped in an interview with Rolling Stone earlier this year. “Yes, I was supposedly like the Mother Teresa who would hang out with everybody or just try and [keep] everything nice and cool and relaxed. But they were great people; they were great friends. McVie was born Christine Anne Perfect on July 12, 1943, her father a concert violinist and music professor, her mother a psychic medium and faith healer. Perfect started playing piano as a child, studying classical music until she was a teenager, at which point her interests turned blues and rock and roll.

Chicken Shack released a pair of albums with Perfect — 40 Blue Fingers, Freshly Packed and Ready to Serve and O.K. Ken — and her rendition of Etta James’ “I’d Rather Go Blind” cracked the Top 20 in the U.K. in 1969. This story is developing…

This one would also work in the titties thread…

This one arrived Friday, and I gotta say, after a coupla spins, it's actually pretty decent. Waaaaaaaay better than the last few releases. Definitely worth checking out if you're a fan of the band in general.

Sounds like 2023 will be starting out strong 💪 🎸 🎶

Japanese bonus track from Thunder, “When the Rain Comes Down” Fuck cancer! 🤬

“Man I despise these f’n mashups” And yet you continue to return to this thread.. 😂

There have been some absolutely terrible mashups coming out recently. Several that come to mind are Judas Priest/Iron Maiden mashups that wind up just sounding like noise. 😒 With that being said, two of my favorites are as follows… Killed by Exodus Flying Hot Stuff

If you’ve seen/heard any news over the last 48 hours, you’ve probably heard at least a little about crypto exchange FTX and its collapse/bankruptcy. Yep, the same FTX that Tom Brady and Steph Curry invested in. FTX has 134 subsidiaries; all of them filed bankruptcy today. The ripples from this event are just beginning to be felt, with FTX’s tentacles reaching all across the globe. Keep an eye on this story in the upcoming weeks..

Yep, and how people expect him to be like his Dad, as they just can’t let go of EVH , and can’t accept Wolfie having his own path. It’s sad the amount of abuse that young man has dealt with since his father’s passing.
