  1. Thanks BAN. Haven't been able to get a copy of Breaking the Silence yet but listened to Victims of Deception and liked it a lot. cheers
  2. The Gretsch White Falcon might just be the most beautiful object ever made by man. But, you're right, it's not very metal. Well not modern metal. I think Rickenbacker 6 or 12 strings might be the least metal. Great guitars but not metal. Although their basses are a different proposition altogether.
  3. Thought I'd just give an update on what I've been listening to in my voyage of metal discovery. Recently got the new Accept album Blind Rage and love that. It's a bit old school but I guess I am too. Also bought a copy of Sepultura's Roots which is a revelation to me. Getting into Pantera too. Still struggling with Slayer. I guess I need stuff a bit more obviously melodic for now. Really liking Medadeth. There seems to be more weight to their more recent work than Metallica's. Bought St Anger and can't work it out at all. cheers Veston
  4. Thank you to everyone who took the time to make suggestions. I'm really enjoying listening to as much as I can. Megadeth and Mastadon have been on the headphones for today's commute.
  5. Hi Iceni, Had someone suggested to me, earlier today, that I might be listening to Kazakhstani folk metal this evening I'd probably have thought they were taking the piss but "Rice Farmers" is surprisingly good. Metal really is a broad church.
  6. Couldn't find an Uzbekistan Folk Music forum
  7. Thanks Guys. I appreciate you taking the time to help. Looking forward to some fun listening to your suggestions. I'm finding Deezer helpful but I still prefer to own CDs and build up a library. Never too sure how/if the artists get paid by music discovery sites.
  8. Thanks RO. I'm going shopping for some CDs.
  9. Thanks RO. Really appreciate the recommendation. I've owned Led Zep IV for years and its a classic in any genre of music. Same with Black Sabbath. Will certainly give Angel Witch a try as they're a new name to me. To my shame, i never really listened to Saxon, even though I grew up only a few miles from their home town, Barnsley. I'll certainly give em a try. Biff Byford always seems like a good bloke when he's interviewed. thanks again.
  10. Hi JBaker, thanks for your reply. i'm in Droitwich. You? I've mostly listened to NWOBHM stuff. Love Iron Maiden and Motorhead. Also like Anthrax and Metallica.
  11. Hi Folks, This might sound weird but at the age of 44, having listened mostly to punk, new wave and indie, I'm just discovering the joys of metal. I've been watching the Metal Evolution series on TV and have loved every minute. I had no idea there was so much variety and so many different genres within metal but I'm loving discovering more and more. The only problem (and its a good problem) is what to try next. I wondered if any of you could suggest a list of 10 "must hear" metal albums covering as broad a spectrum as possible. Cheers and thanks Veston
