It's going to be a nightclub classic... (do they still have nightclubs?). I could have imagined singing along to it with the whole dancefloor in the past - (do they still have dance floors I wonder?).Originally Posted by Mutatis-Mutandi
I see where we diverge Mutatis - perhaps I should stop rating your songs. It's nothing personal. 2/10
From the other end of the scale.

Please don't! I don't care if someone gives my songs a low rating (though, it can irk me when someone bashes a song without basis, but I've gotten over it). Anyways, I listen to a lot of music the vast majority of people don't like, so it's not unusual.
As to your song, I just don't generally like that 80s techno sound. Plus, the first singer sounded like a dude, lol. 3/10.
Something a little less chaotic.
I'm reading that elision as 'so forgetting sick of it'.
I rather liked Stolen Babies, but that might be more the video than the song. 7/10
5:15, in which Pete Townsend offers practical evidence of his own assertion that he was never much of a guitarist, but he could write a good tune.

Yes she does. It was only when I saw the video that I realised it was a woman. I think it's more disco than techno by the way.
I was listening to The Who today in the office whilst working. Great stuff. 8.5/10 The video looks quitessentially British doesn't it.
I like this one. Didn't get it when I was young.

8/10. I like it, too. Moon's "drumming" is hilarious.
German progressive metal band. Don't quit listening when the yelling starts--there's some very good singing later in the song.

Taylor Swift. She's just so nice and wholesome and sweet and safe ... I just can't stand her. She is a positive influence on many young girls, though, so that bumps her up to a 3/10.
After that, I need a palate cleanser.
Ack, maybe one day I'll open one of those links to a metal song and I'll have some sort of epiphany, but not this time. 4/10

Nice song. 7.5
A nice contrast to ramp it up a bit.

Not something I'm into, but there's really nothing about it I find disagreeable aside from the repetition. 5/10
[laugh] If one wants to become a metal fan, or at least explore the genre, you don't start with Cannibal Corpse. It takes years of metal listening to build up to that and enjoy it (I can only take a few songs at a time). Any metal newbie needs to start with something like this, like I did.
It's a bit easier to wrap your head around.
I've actually seen Metallica live once, still not all that enthused by their music 5/10.
I'm just willing to go to any concert as long as someone else is paying.

Judas Priest - along with Saxon, Iron Maiden, Def Leppard - emerged from the neglected industrial heartlands of Great Britain in the Seventies, and forty years later that provenance really shows. They're as threatening, unpredictable and outrageous as a nice cup of tea and a slice of Victoria sponge. If this really is the Devil's music, then Beelzebub must have hung up his pitchfork and opened a yarn shop in Dudley. 4/10
Here's Lizzy, neatly staddling the line between metal and commercial rock. I said in an earlier post I'd have loved to have Robert Plant's life. I'd've settled, frankly, for Scott Gorman's hair.

Something just doesn't mesh for me, 5/10. To be honest I don't even like Judas Priest.
