Memes. For metal music.
Don't be an ass and try to keep the gatekeeping and whatnot to a minimum. Memes from all sorts of metal genres and bands are welcome here.
this fits most metallica songs.
Intro : wow, how musically delightful
then they take away all complexity until it's completely straightforward.
and then 4 verses later, you're left thinking "how long is this song going to take"?
And the song keeps going for 3 more verses.
Also: Kiss makeup and outfits vs their sound and choreography
Same with Ghost
Richard Simmons rocks at least as hard as that flaming skeleton, in his own unique ways.
When ever I hear crazy train that I know is wrong but I can't not hear "ruin my souffle" and then at the end of there's the laughing bit it sounds like it's ahahaha eggs! instead of yes
Uh, yeah, I thought that was the point? There's nothing more maddening than looking at all the terrible things in the world and still deciding that living life is worth enduring.
You have to be divinely insane to accept all of the bad and all of the good that reality presents to us seemingly without any greater reason or purpose.
Put Richard Simmons on either side and you have 25 or 6 to 4 from Chicago. That solo has no right to be as fire as it is.
That song is a goddamn banger, and I told my friend that when he's murderlizing as his mage, that's what I picture in my head; spells blasting left and right and the driving riff of that song just blaring. Absolute madman.
This is exactly how I feel about Money for nothing by Dire Straits…
One of the best intro riffs of all time, then it sounds like something from a BBC kids show.
Hard but respectful disagree.
Money for nothing is end to end chef's kiss.
I went to some discos in Brazil in the 80s. People were frantically dancing to this song.
Edit: most of the time, the song that followed was "beds are burning" by midnight oil.
The time has come
Norman Greenbaum's "Spirit in the Sky". Those crispy awesome guitar riffs, and then you start singing some trite crap about Jeebus? It's maddening!
One of my favorite Wikipedia entries comes from this song. This entire passage just cracks me up.
"Spirit in the Sky" makes several religious references to Jesus, and Greenbaum himself is Jewish. In a 2006 interview with The New York Times, Greenbaum told a reporter he was inspired to write the song after watching Porter Wagoner singing a gospel song on TV. Greenbaum said: "I thought, 'Yeah, I could do that,' knowing nothing about gospel music, so I sat down and wrote my own gospel song. It came easy. I wrote the words in 15 minutes." Greenbaum had previously been a member of psychedelic jug band Dr. West's Medicine Show and Junk Band.
It doesn't make me any less upset to listen to the song itself, but that is fantastic, lol.
Next time you listen to it, imagine the situation that is being presented. The singer said that all the words are literally what the guy at the department store was saying without knowing who Mark Knopfler (the singer) was. Add in the video (in a time when computer graphics were very primitive) and it's really one of those great stories.
Not sure this is the cause in these cases, but it's all too common in design by committee. Keeping the creative direction and vision in a single person is so damn important.
Yup. It's a linedancing song just like "AC/DC - You Shook Me All Night Long".
