What was the first metal band you ever listened to? (rock, genre)

Well I'm not saying they're like the Velvet Underground or something. Just that they were different from their peers.

And indeed. I get very annoyed when anyone ever calls Guns N Roses a typical hair metal band. Such people are deaf.

Def Leppard. I mean like "On Through the Night". Shortly after it came out. Its rather embarassing really.

On Through The Night was pretty good, I liked High and Dry better though.

So where is your post citing the first metal band you ever listened to? I'll admit that I haven't read every one of your posts, but I have yet to see something really constructive or positive about rock or metal. Please show me if they exist.

It was better. Sadly,(or not), it was the peak of their miserable career which, like many artists, they still haven't managed to put out of its misery. Not that anyone's paying attention anyway.

You have to look back pretty far. I'm a proghead, and well...I think you get the picture.

pantera- planet caravan.
my bro used it to help me sleep when my mom and dad went out of town and i couldn't stop crying cuz i missed my mommy.

If only some bands would go out on a high note, or at least give up instead of clutching a career that's gone.
On a side note, I was taking a speech class in college and my teacher mentioned that she was going to a Bon Jovi concert that night. I just busted out laughing. She wanted an explanation so I gave my opinion that they did not age like wine unless you want to count Mad Dog 20/20. Tastes like crap and gives you a headache. I got a C from that class and I think thats why.
Bon Jovi = typical hair metal shit

That is one of my all time favorites. Do you have the original version?

antihero496 · 02-04-2008, 10:15 PM

yeah. i downloaded it!

Predator · 02-04-2008, 10:17 PM

I really think that Pantera did it justice. Not many covers really hit me as being that good. The video could have been better.

I thought you said you didn't like prog anymore. Make up your damn mind.
