Yesterday, disembarking the engine at Tinkletowne BLVD on the corner of Rumpy Pumpy Ave, I bashed the
sweet Jesus fuck outta my right foot! The muhfucka is now all blue and puffy
THE PAIN. I heard avin a right good larf can reduce excruciating sensations, so in addition to an ice pack, elevation, and regular hits of taxpayer-funded high-grade ching chong chinaman charlie, I caught up on Razorfist's Metal Mythos series. I can fully imagine how screamingly unfunny this guy's shtick must be to many, but fuck, the timing and lyricism of his sweary barbs makes me laugh, and his passion is infectious.
Also I'm kinda useless outside of the most obvious NWOBHM/thrash stuff, so it's amusing hearing all the stories. Like the classic "ever intensifying shitstorm" gangster flick, the rock n' roller slide from record exec heavy petting to a five-alarm courtroom ass-fucking is forever riveting TV. Grim Reaper got shafted BAD!
Poor chap, I could not help commiserate with his health woes - my foot is a swirling slushbag of broken glass and bare nerves at the moment, making me shiver in pain like a shitting dog - but at least it is
still there! ;-;7
Iron Maiden ep was fun! I have to disagree about
Back In The Village, its combo of boogieing riffs and ominous imagery isn't bad at all. I was intrigued that he boners for
Somewhere in Time (I do too) but detests
Seventh Son (prob my favourite OG Bruce era LP) - most fans I know who like one at least tolerate if not enjoy the other. Agreed on SIT's production, fuckin rich and
crisp. I blasted the
FUCKING FUCK out of the
title opener right afterwards. Fuck me, the dual leads you might hear in heaven, or a rousing session of F-Zero X. ;-;7
Loved the Danzig ep too. Giving Judas Priest a go now, then Motorhead, and that's about it for bands I'm familiar with. Of the rest, the Stryper and Dokken episodes were honestly quite eye-opening. Was expecting so bad it's good, but those chaps have some catchy stuff and not inconsiderable chops. Ain't no fuckin Def Leppard that's for goddamn sure. Those lovey lyrics about Jesus are kinda fruity though, being part-Irish part-Jamaican I was a bit uneasy, we are a conservative folk. o_o He wanna get on his knees and start pleasin Jebus?! O_O I prefer the
Doobie Bros and
George Harrison for that stuff. I know they meant well though! (Def Leppard's first album is actually ok and the second, High n Dry, rawks hard - Deep Purple+AC/DCesque! I recommend!)
