A few years back I set out to see how many songs I could find which had "Metal" in the title and as it turns out there was hundreds of the bloody things with more arrving every day.
By the time you've finished reading this sentence, a band in a garage somewhere has just written a song called "Metal Avenger". You never know. Maybe it will end up on here.
Moving on to business, today's selection is brought to you by the letter O. Enjoy.
Oker - Heavy Metal (Spain 2013)
Oldschool HM with duelling male & female vocals.
Sung in Spanish which really suits the song.
Honour to: Ladamadechapa
Obsessör - Metal Onslaught (Germany 2009)
Black/Thrash that puts a brick on the accelerator and goes for it.
Honour to: AlcoholicMayhem
Orion's Sword - Crusade Of Heavy Metal (Sweden 1984)
(Very NWOBHM in style and approach - but Swedish)
Honour to: Endless Of Classic Stuff
Overdrive - Let The Metal do The Talking (Sweden 2008)
(HM that's crunchy but still catchy.)
Honour to: El Trono Del Metal
OldBlood - Metal is Metal (Slovakia 2010)
(Black/Thrash that doesn't hang about.()
(Venomesque Black/Speed Metal.)
Honour to: SabbathDoom
And lastly, one where I'm not entirely sure about the title.
The original is in Russian/Cyrillic so I'm banking on the uploader getting it right.
Old Wainds - Unholy Nordic Metal (Russia 2011)
(Guess what they sound like. Go on. )
I actually rather like that Orion's Sword track. Not so keen on the Unholy Nordic Metal.
ReplyDeleteIt's a bit of an acquired taste, isn't it? I prefer the less harsh end of the spectrum myself.
