There's a fucking huge thunderstorm going on right now. Made me think about awesome metal songs that mention thunder/lightning. Currently got Holy Thunderforce and Lightning To The Nations. Any others? Please respond.

Oh, and Ride The Lightning of course.


Heir Apparent - Running From the Thunder

About Tad Morose; I don't like the band really but their singer is a good vocalist. Guy has an own voice, range and a nice tone.

Does anyone else camp on the main page when they're bored and see how many clicks of the "random band" button it takes to find a band they know?

Woohooo 12 clicks! :-D

Now for clicking "random band" and see how many I end up with before a band pops up that I own a record with. (Yes; I'm working... earning money doing this).

Damn I rule; 6 clicks.

Just tried again, took me 35 before I got to Cloven Hoof. :(

I'm not even going to try for bands whose albums I own since doing the math I'd most likely have to go through 800 or so before finding anything.

Hey lord_ghengis, try Black Destiny and Her Whisper for more Dark at Dawn-esque vocals.

Eleven clicks to reach Gamma Ray, I got lucky.

Edit Woops, just read that it has to be a band you own a record of. I thought it just had to be a band you knew. Ok, let's try again shall we...

That was how I was doing mine. I just seem to have bad luck - I get strings of crappy Italian "gothic" metal bands and black metal bands who released no more than 20 copies of their demos. :(

I stopped counting at maybe twenty. But then, I know maybe 500 bands in total, so it would mean that on average it would take about 170 tries. :lol:

I haven't explored metal very even-handedly, so unless it's black metal it's unlikely that I recognise a random obscure band name. And because there are thousands and thousands of black metal bands nobody but three people have ever heard of, it's again unlikely that I'll know the average black metal band.

You're the guy who entered the Songwriting Challenge under the monicker of Profane Anal Ritual. You have no right to complain. :P

Out of all their song titles I looked at, "Stop - let's Girl suck you Fucking Dry" is probably my favourite.

I think I'm going to make a big compilation of German metal songs where "V"s are mispronounced as "W"s.

Seriously? Over 500 clicks? Also, it's pretty intense that every member ever seems to be doing this and then feel the need to post about it.

I just searched up the Binary code. Awesome prog death, and apparently their local. Thanks.

Today I bought the Rhapsody Tales From The Emerald Sword Sage compilation. I was driving home, alone, screaming in my car about dragons, ancient spells, and mighty warriors. It was then that I realized that I am going to die a virgin.
