Every man has a right to live
Love is all that we have to give
Together we struggle by our will to survive
And together we fight just to stay alive

I can see clearly now the rain is gone💯

I can see all obstacles in my way💚

Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind💫

It's gonna be a bright
Bright sunshiny day❤️

We can get through this guys and gals,
we've got it in the pocket and the end is in sight.
Lets push through, get the job done, pack up, have our smoke and be happy.
❤️❤️❤️

💚💚💚

It's all we want, a chance.

For the early birds out there, least we have so much time in the day after all the work we done in the dawn.

Deftones, Tool and Pantera all day long 💯❤️

I'll second that,deftones tool pantera to name a few,90s and 2000s metal/rock for me 🤘

The 90s had such amazing metal bands. So many genres were exploding and were so exciting. Wasn’t so keen on that rap metal mind. I loved RATM but the ones that followed like Limp Bizkit were pretty dumb.

Preach bro 💯

Sorry dude didn’t mean to offend anyone. Just didn’t personally like Limp Bizkit. Sorry.

Oh no man I’m with you on the LB thing bro, loved Korn though 😎

Oh sorry man I thought you meant I was preaching to you. Yeah I loved the first Korn album hated the 2nd but loved the 3rd album. Stopped following them after that but still like the odd track after the 3rd album. Alone I break is an awesome track.

I remember seeing Pantera at the Ozzfest back in 98. Amazing set and a wild pit not as crazy as the Soulfly pit a set later that was insane. Love early Deftones up to the White Pony album.

yes but thrash, osdm, 1st wave black metal and the list goes on. So quite a different list but yeah I'm a metalhead

Celtic Frost are probably my fave out of the 1st wave black metal bands. Did you not get on with the 2nd wave of black metal? There are some great bands.

No I do just lower down on my list. Celtic frost absolutely genius band although there was a time they were called death metal

Or even avant-garde?

Fucking love Slayer. Almost find it romantic.

That is the best comment I’ve read. Ever!! It’s fucking brilliant mate!!!🤘

Meshuggah, Sikth, CB Murdoc, all for if you like something properly, properly heavy.

Alcest is love :D

Alcest is true love. I finally see them in October!! Yippee!!!

Dimmu borgir , Old mans child and dissection for me M8 .... Ave satanas

Early Dimmu Borgir for me mate. First 2 albums are great(even the ripped off track on the 2nd album) went off them when they expanded their sound.

sorgens is one of my fave tracks pity m8 i love most of their stuff although my fave albums are Puritanical and In sorte. stormblast will always hold a special place in my heart..

Didnt know this band tahnks :)

does screamo count

Of course Screamo counts man! Love myself a bit of Mice&Men and Bring Me The Horizon. Not sure if they’re Screamo bands?

1."Reign in Bud" - Slayer (A stoner metal twist on Slayer's classic "Reign in Blood")

2."Black Sabbath's Munchies" - Black Sabbath (Featuring their heaviest hits to satisfy the munchies)

3."Master of Bongs" - Metallica (An epic blend of metal and cannabis-inspired anthems)

4."Weed the Lightning" - Megadeth (Thrashing through the green haze with high-intensity riffs)

5"Paranoid and Paranoider" - Black Flag (A punk-infused, paranoia-inducing masterpiece for the metalheads who like to keep it raw)

check out Mac sabbath .... its burger vertions of sabbath songs XD

I go a lot of gigs and download/bloodstock festival. Some of the best music to have a smoke to.

Always wanted to check Bloodstock out. What’s the crowd like? Friendly?

Yeah probably the most community, friendly festival I’ve been to. Really chilled and there’s not too many people like major festivals.

NWOBHM or?

What do you mean dude?

New Wave Of British Heavy Metal

I’m old but not that old!!! Lol. Do love my Maiden though!!

Seeing Municipal Waste again in October, really looking forward to that one

Recomendations wise, I've been really digging some of the "new wave trad" by the likes of Eternal Champion and Visigoth, super cheesy power metal about goblins and dragons, epic stuff...

Thanks for the recommendations man I’ll check them out. I’m seeing Alcest in October and can’t wait for that.

I'm mid-forties now and grew up on bands like Metallica, Pantera, Machine Head and NIN. I've always been into other stuff as well but it's what I mostly listened to during my teens and twenties.

I don't listen to metal as much as I used to however I've found the old adage that your tastes mellow with age to be untrue in my case. I listen to some much heavier, more extreme bands than I used to and I'm much more open to sub genres I wouldn't have considered before.

My current favourite heavy listen is Lullabies for Eternal Sleep by Apes. Hadn't heard of them until I read a brief review that described that EP as being sort of like post-metal if all the quiet bits were replaced with nasty grindcore. One listen and I'd bought the tracks off Bandcamp. The first track, Cornwall, is savage but has such an amazing groove too.

If you like blackened stuff then check out Apes' earlier album, Lightless. Different to the latest material but still bloody good.

I pretty much listen to every metal track thrown at me with passion :D.
I love albums in every genre.
Some of my favorites bands are Decapitated, Dimmu Borgir, TBDM, born of osiris, meshuggah, lamb of god, well theres too much really ^^..

Metal is definitely a way of life.

Recently i've been listening to the Nomad album by Kublai Khan (insane tone/sound) and a gradual decline in moral by Kim Dracula, pretty strange shit but i love it haha.

Must be more then a few metalheads here on LB for sure.

Right now I'm waiting for the re-recording by the Calavera brother's of the Morbid Visions record. Absolutely can't bloody wait for that! Artwork is on point and the sound, my goodness.

But otherwise, been on a death metal vibe recently - the new 200 Stab Wounds EP and the new Kruelty record basically.

Yeah I was thinking the same,that’s why I made the post just to see what bands everyone was into.

Oh if they get that right it should be awesome. Early Sepultura rocks. Love the Arise album lost interest around Roots. That album wasn’t for me. I really like Derrick on vocals even though a lot of Max fan boys gave him a hard time when he joined.

That's true and these later Sepultura albums are genuinely great!

Tonight I've been listening to Cult of Luna and Boris. Last night it was Lamp of Murmuur and Fluisteraars. I'm in my 50s. Metal seems to make more sense the older I get but then the type of metal I listen to now is different from the metal I listened to at 16. Except for Sabbath. Always Sabbath 🤘Music just keeps on getting better.

Absolutely love Cult Of Luna their Salvation album was incredible! Can’t remember if it was their debut? Give Panoption a listen man especially there again into the light album it is pure genius. Austin Lunn plays over a dozen instruments on the album. Can’t wait to see them next month on their first ever UK tour. Always Iron Maiden for me mate though I do obviously love Sabbath.

Oh yeah I love Panopticon too. I was listening to And Again... last night. Also Botanist and Wolves In The Throne Room, sheer sheets of metallic sound, hypnotic riffs it's damn psychedelic as a genre in many ways. Also into stuff like Thou and Primitive Man, I was listening to the last Wormrot album the other day. There's just so much good stuff and such massive variety that it's impossible to not like something that's "metal" if you're into music. If anyone avoids metal they should take a deep dive into all the sub genres cos they'd be surprised at how much they would probably love. From Sunn O))) to Full of Hell and all the stops in between.

I'm wearing a Primitive Man t-shirt at the moment.

Brilliant. I've got my Sleep Dopesmoker one on 🤘

Got my Alcest tee on and had my Emperor one on yesterday! Lol.

They’re ..again into the light album is so good. I found it very accessible compared to their earlier stuff. Still really enjoy their early folk metal inspired stuff. Kentucky is fantastic. I was lucky enough to see Wolves In The Throne Room a few years back. Beautiful gig. It was bombastic and majestic all at once. 🤘

I saw Panopticon a few years back over in Dutchie land, enjoyed them but haven't paid much attention to them since.Do you like Wayfarer? They do a similar type of thing kinda country tinged BM.

Really like Wayfarer too and a Scottish band called Saor. They play a similar style to Panopticon. Can’t wait to see them live,I’ve waited years for them to visit the UK. Gotta travel a few hundred miles but it will deffo be worth it. Much love.

Next years fortress festival looks up your street,

Mate it looks epic!! Panopticon are headlining day one and are playing their entire Roads To The North album!! The entire weekend looks genuinely great too.

Saw Maiden on the Powerslave tour. It was one of my first gigs. Christ I'm so fuckin old.

Would love to of saw peak Maiden.

The Boris/Uniform album sounds like it's going to be a good un.

Dad got me into metal with sabbath i have to agree nearly 40 now .... So many metal genres would not exist without them ..

Yeah Sabbath are definitely the godfathers of metal. Without them half the genres today wouldn’t exist.

and if you into black metal check out Blackbraid they just relesed their second album its Native american black metal if you like melodic stuff check em out i feel they are only going to get better...

Nice, gotta upvote KRS!

Here's another underrated 90s bubbler featuring the Blastmaster and many more:

KRS had a big influence on me growing up for sure and he still does to this day, can't believe this track is 23 years old before all the social media nonsense!
(sorry for hijacking btw just wanted to share one of my fav KRS tracks)

Great track, underrated album. Nice one SOTL.

Not good quality. But always found this an amusing mashup

Incredible album. Pete Rock - Lost & Found containing this album is an ever present in this household

Fucking dope album, should have been one of the greatest drops ever but for politics, fuck Sylvia Rhone and fuck Elektra. Grap Luva is to this day one of the great emcees. That's a young Haile Selassie on the cover for those who didn't know

What a line up!

Im going to go out on a limb and say you are more an indica person

💙

Folks the music will be here soon, just a quick message from your sponsor.
White Runtz 60 /40 diamonds distillate no terp added to try, just back from work hour ago, my free lunch is now cold, been off medicine for few days and a single skin hash doob just floored me.
After the white runtz the music will begin!
Who shall we find next on the slow beats tempo this time i wonder.
OK the song lets go!👊

💙

Brilliant!! I’ve seen some comments of people talking about good soap bar, now I always thought soap bar was the crap stuff , any memories people have of hash being good it was just good hash ! Soap bar or diesel or gak bar was the rubbish cut stuff, rock hard bits of plastic in it , odd smell and gave you a headache lol

It used to be about 50% bin liner in Essex 😃

Soap bar... It comes from fuckin' Olland'...

Haha love it brung back some memories thanks for that Shroom 😊 being from Wales me and my mates loved Goldie Lookin Chain 😂

brilliant

I’m kicking man like Van Damme!.. Legendary takeover!

I still wear my Kurupt fm jumper, get the occasional K thrown up at me every now and again 😌

Young Stormzy is moving in just round the corner from me into a proper nice gaff. He’s having one done up while renting another a couple of doors down.
Should see the motors on the drive 😮
My daughters other half also has a mate in Brentford and goes to watch the footie now and then says they pop in for the odd match now and then 😂
