Damn.Getting serious David Wayne vibes from new Metal Church vocalist Brian Allen here.A revamped line up with David Ellefson on bass,and the legendary Ken Mary(Chastain,Fifth Angel,Impelliterri,etc.)on drums.Only listened to it once.Not sure what to think. youtu.be/X23RO0LjUk8?... #Metalsky

Excellent instrumental from this obscure band from Denmark.Morten Nielsen,who is a very good friend of mine,played drums on this track.Morten also was the drummer on Mercyful Fate’s reunion album,”In The Shadows.” youtu.be/j4H_XiSXGLc?... #Metalsky

For me,Slayer’s best work was during the “Metal Blade” years-Albums,E.P’s-Everything up to “Hell Awaits”-Which is my favorite Slayer album.I always felt “Reign In Blood” was overrated-Not a popular opinion among Slayer fans. youtu.be/z_af9e5kxR0?... #Metalsky

Another Jeff Beck appreciation post. This track pretty much defines Jeff’s playing; his later years mirror Beethoven’s in that he strove to be uniquely demonstrative. His playing will never die 🤘 youtu.be/ZZ_8YHFKRpM?... #Jeffbeck #Jazzfusion #Jazz

Fantastic opening track from this album.I always interpreted it being from a “Outside observance” of all the overtly “Satanic bands”-like Watain,Dissection,Marduk,etc.Nonetheless it is epic in scope as only Tom could convey. youtu.be/61iOrlOkpns?... #Metalsky #Triptykon

Happy Halloween.Of course,this song is appropriate for this time of year.This is from the Aardschok Festival from 1986-Agent Steel,Laaz Rockit,Helloween and Avalon were also on the bill.I would have loved to have gone-I didn’t exactly have the funds being 17 at the time. youtu.be/gdFCsn6aqQg?...

Jerry Goldsmith.One of my favorite film composers of all time.Maestro.
The Omen. 1976. Richard Donner spent 2 decades directing TV shows before making a name for himself with Superman & Lethal Weapon — but his debut feature was The Omen. It’s also his only horror film, and possibly one of the best in cinema history. Thanks also to Jerry Goldsmith’s “Ave Satani” score.
