I wasn't a fan of Bon Jovi or Poison or any of that, I did like Cinderella somewhat on the first two albums. A couple of the glam bands were heavier (Fifth Angel, House of Lords, Bang Tango), those were pretty good. But for me, mostly it was thrash/speed, early death, hardcore, prototype black metal, and the classic NWOBHM influenced stuff. Damn, as far as that borderline glam shit goes, don't forget Circus of Power, or Gruntruck, two of my faves! You have invoked the name of the mighty Gruntruck, probably THE BEST FUCKING SEATTLE BAND (along with Seaweed) AND THEY NEVER GOT ANY FUCKING BREAKS! |
| ___________________________________ [Jun 8,2006 2:25pm - RichHorror ""] Seaweed!! |
| ____________________________________________ [Jun 8,2006 2:27pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] Seaweed was a seriously great band, I'm glad I got to check them out a few times live. More of a punk edge than the other grunge. |
| ___________________________________ [Jun 8,2006 2:28pm - RichHorror ""] Yeah, I was obsessed with that band. So jaw-droppingly great. |
| ____________________________________________ [Jun 8,2006 2:29pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] Did you see them at the first Warped Tour? They were great then, and I also saw them with Into Another before Hollywood Records collapsed and both those great bands lost their big chance. |
| ___________________________________ [Jun 8,2006 2:31pm - RichHorror ""] I remember that. I was convinced they were right on the edge of mainstream hugeness. |
| ____________________________________________ [Jun 8,2006 2:33pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] Totally. What was the last record they put out? Inactions and Actions or something? I remember it being less interesting than the first five. |
| _________________________________________ [Jun 8,2006 4:45pm - Animal_Magnetism ""] Candlemass - 'Epicus Doomicus Metallicus' one of my alltime favs |
| _______________________________________ [Jun 8,2006 5:20pm - DomesticTerror ""] for some reason i thought this was gonna be about the Mets. I was ready to rage... |

| _____________________________________________ [Jun 8,2006 11:24pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] It was. |
| ___________________________________ [Jun 9,2006 9:34am - OldSchool ""] damn some of u making me feel real old. i was born in 1971. So 1986 I was a sophmore in high school. My cousin was a 'thrasher' as in sk8ter and was into a lot of punk and metal. I got introduced to metal in 1983. I was 12 years old and my cousins use to sk8 around with this HUGE boombox and a crate of tapes. I went one day with them as they reeked havoc and they would BLAST Suicidal, Slayer, Metallica, Motley Crue (yes), Maiden, Anthrax, Twisted Sister (oh yes), Sabbath, Queesryche, Judas Preist, Motorhead, Venom and an all time fave Heathen's Rage! At first I remember how awful the music was but the more I hung around my trouble making cousin the more i started to enjoy these early 80's metal bands. By the time of 1986 came around I got heavily into the new wave of thrash metal/German thrash. Dark Angel was awesome! Darkness Descends I thought was so 'scary'! Master was phenominal! Kreator was so fresh sounding, Sodom was bow down awesome, Overkill was kick ass... i could go on and on about all the bands i loved then but i really liked the thrash sound of the time era of 1988-1991. but Nirvana had to appear and destory it all. i can say, when i was in HS i was an outcast. there were only a handful of us that were metalheads or the "druggies" as everyone called us (we actually didn't do drugs! drank but). I went to HS in the burbs so... a lot of my peers had no idea about this music. The popular stuff in high school from 1985-1989 was pop music. electronic pop. i couldn't stand it. The Police was still kinda popular at that time as kids wore their shirts. it has been sooooooo long since i thought back to those times. now i feel real old thanks guys. |

| ___________________________________ [Jun 9,2006 10:54am - dyingmuse ""] Dave at work said:DrinkHardThrashHard said:I remember Infestation, Atomicaust, Hearing Impaired, Blatant Disregard, Subjugator, Deslok (I AM A RELIC OF DEPRESSION! OF MISERY!), Terrasphere, Executioner, Peanut Butter Anarchy, Krucix (homeboys from my town), Demise, Seka, Formicide, Mortuary, just about everything! No shit! I know our paths have crossed...I was in Hearing Impaired, which morphed into Dimmak, then Worldseed, then Bitter (with Bean from Deslok on drums, KB from Wrecking Crew on vox, and Chris from Slapshot on bass), and finally in the many early incarnations of Ichabod, with whom I still play. Greg from Subjugator plays bass as a matter of fact, and at least one of my bands played with every one you mentioned...my favorite Deslok tune was "Saltwound", which I always used to play on Rotten to the Core...we must hang out, when are you guys playing the area again? damn i remember all those bands, we would all play together! i was in Dysphoria who turned into carrion and ultimately Mourndrear, we played with infestation, delusion, exhumed(way before they were shadow's fall) , desolate, morgul, csdo, mortuary, living impared, toxic narcotic, lacrymator... i still think delusion was the best at that time. they rocked! my friend actually used to sing for krucix, i don't know how long, but damn old shit here. where you from methuen? i was living in methuen when i was 11 through 13 ish, and moved away. i used to have like this satanic cult of venom/king diamond worshipers in the 5th grade that i would hang with lol! them's were the days. before emo and new metal |

| ___________________________________ [Jun 9,2006 11:03am - ShadowSD ""] DrinkHardThrashHard said:Is it any coincidence that 1986 was also the year the two greatest video games of all time dropped in the US? Those being Metroid and the original Legend of Zelda. Didn't they come out in 1987? I didn't get Nintendo until the next year, but later on I had this magazine that listed the release dates for every game. Zelda was August of 1987, I forget when Metroid was exactly but I think it was around the same time. Mike Tyson's Punch Out was October 1987, though, I remember that. Damn I know lots of useless information. |
| __________________________________ [Jun 9,2006 2:02pm - dyingmuse ""] ha ha ha, regardless, no doubt that they were amongst the best games ever! |
| ____________________________________________ [Jun 9,2006 2:04pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] Nope, both came out in 1986 for the NES. |
| _________________________________________ [Jun 9,2006 2:10pm - TheGreatSpaldino ""] Tygers of Pan Tang kick A LOT of ass. i miss all of the mp3's i had of them :( |
| ____________________________________________ [Jun 9,2006 2:12pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] Hahahah, I actually don't like them much, well, if you were into that more commercial NWOBHM style. |
| _________________________________________ [Jun 9,2006 2:47pm - TheGreatSpaldino ""] they are wicked fun. its not anything really mind blowing... but when you want to listen to something old school and upbeat... they are a great choice. |
| ____________________________________________ [Jun 9,2006 2:50pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] I have their discography around somewhere, a few of the early records were okay, but damn, I love some other NWOBHM so much more. |
| _______________________________________ [Jun 9,2006 5:42pm - Granny_Monster ""] Bwah ha ha... the year I was born. Yes! |

| _____________________________________________ [Jun 10,2006 7:50pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] Eh, it happens, everything I can find says 1986, and for the NES (earlier for the Japanese counterpart Famicom). |
