@HailsandAles@derthomas@jayes Oh man! This is one of my favourite Anvil albums! Daggers and Rum is a terrific song! It's Your Move has a really good groove to it. Ambushed, Run Like Hell and Die For A Lie are also great tracks. Honestly, this is a really good record - especially for a band that has been at it for over 30 years at that point.

The Most Played Song Live Off Each Album by Thrash's 'Big 4'
How many of these songs have you seen Big 4 bands play live?
For #TuneTuesday the theme is #SongsAboutClassicMonsters, and what better way to celebrate the foul, shambling undead than Skeletonwitch's "Released from the Catacombs". 🧟
That time #DaveMustaine nearly caused an international incident at an #Antrim gig.
"On May 11, 1988, #Megadeth played the Antrim Forum in #NorthernIreland and dedicated their cover of Anarchy In The UK to 'The Cause': 'It was like I had set off a bomb,' Dave Mustaine later recalled. Our writer watched the chaos unfold..."
This is Mother Mother the HARDCORE band from Los Angeles, not the other band(s) with the same name. They're a really cool mix of punk, metal, hardcore, thrash, math rock?
It's catchy and pretty short at just 5 songs. Can't stop listening to it.

“He said, ‘How about Slayer with special guests Slayer?’ We went, ‘Wow, that could be crazy’”: the forgotten story of Slayer vs Slayer, the 80s metal Battle Of The Bands with only one winner
Two bands, one name, one crazy gig – this is what happened when a pre-fame Slayer shared a bill with another band named Slayer
Fuck me these guys are great! And they seem to be between 18 and 20 years young???
I have no idea how he does it, but their singer sounds like James Hetfield, Joey Belladonna and Dave Mustaine. And if you don't like neither of those, don't worry, you will like this one anyhow 👇
Listening to more of last year's Necropanther album 'Betrayal'. I overlooked it last year and it wouldn't have broken my top 20, but it's pretty good.
Necropanther of course have strong Skeletonwitch (blackened death-thrash) vibes, and are arguably doing it better now than Skeletonwitch (who had to switch to a different singer several years back).
'Betrayal' has some overly kinda proggy spots (for me, as I'm not into prog stuff) here and there. But I can't complain, I dig the overall sound.
