Great variety in your taste

[@analogarchives]

Thank you!

[@stormwind_7996]

Hey Dennis! Excellent response! I know what you mean about HELLOWEEN; I actually like that album, but can't stand 'Keeper Part 2'. Very cool and interesting answer to other bands or music that you like! I like some rap, too, and KODE IV rules! I need to check out that Pac Man album, because I enjoy everything retro. Good choice with Bombay Sapphire...I like the occasional gin myself, haha! Thanks a lot for taking part in this contest!

[@MetalTheologian]

Dude, i would have agreed with you 100% on Helloween until just a couple of years ago, haha. I still hate that comedy shit, but ive come around in a big way on the Keeper albums. Haven't ventured beyond that...

[@analogarchives]

More power to you man I still try every year but just doesn't do it for me , although last time I spun Keeper it was better in some spots than I remembered , hahah

[@9thcircle73]

Cerebral Fix rule! I love Energetic Krusher as well. Underrated UK bands for sure. Dimension Hatross is an incredicle record. Voivod evolved so much on that album. I have a serious love for 80s new wave stuff as well. Great video Dennis!

[@analogarchives]

Yea man love the Energetic Krusher as well, actually pulled that record but just decided not to talk about it for some reason, haha. Cheers!

[@marc.g.with.a.c.]

I’ve got that ‘Cerebral Fix’ album making an appearance in my entry video for James’s giveaway! ‘How many times can you see Autopsy’??… never enough imo Dennis, lol! Good luck brother! 🤘🏻

[@analogarchives]

Ha yea , Autopsy always put on a great show but seem to be a headline at every Death fest type show, just wanna see some other older bands get to headline. Cheers Marc will def check out your entry for James as well.

[@bschuler6216]

Dude, the DropOff from Clandestine to Wolverine Blues is some deep into the void, free fall, abysmal 💩. But, I imagine that is not the only album that stains their discography...

[@analogarchives]

Nope I think the record after that is worse but again most people like it. Just not a style of music I enjoy, death and roll that is.

[@holspa]

Interesting cuestions and answers. Cool video again.

[@analogarchives]

Thanks man!! Cheers Rene, hope all is well brother.

[@rogerkjorvik]

Great response Dennis. I do think Blood Incantation is excellent, apart from that ambient shit, hehe. That Cerebral Fix is missing in my collection, did have a dubbed tape of it back in the days, but that's long gone. Cheers.

[@analogarchives]

Dude Blood Incantation is not bad just overrated for what they do imo. Gotta get that Fix Rog , shit crushes especially if you like some OG UK Crust in your thrash

[@rogerkjorvik]

@@analogarchivesHypes are always annoying, glad I was into the band before that. I'm on the hunt for the Fix, hehe.

[@mrboulder9714]

Great answers to the questions Dennis. Good to see Adam and The Ants shown, the first band i got into as a kid. Also kid to see Depeche Mode as well, great band. With you on Helloween though, never understood the love for them. I do love Wolverine Blues, one of the first extreme metal albums i heard. Cheers mate

[@analogarchives]

Yep still love Adam and The Ants, great band and still remember how nobody wanted to let me buy the record as a kid because they thought the music was horrible, hahah.

[@pathologist..23]

Im from p.a. totally insane hell yea 😤

[@analogarchives]

Yess! They don't get enough credit for sure.

[@raiosdm4536]

Good to see you back.

[@analogarchives]

Thanks!

[@LowNoiseJasonSkilz]

Love the non metal picks. Funkadelic hell yeah! Loverboy was the first concert I went to as a kid. cool hip hop picks too. I hear you on Helloween. First couple records are good then it just gets too trad / prog for me. I recently sold my Blood Incan and Phrenelith albums. They were ok but a bit generic. Nothing groundbreaking. Cheers Dennis!

[@analogarchives]

Dude I love the Funkadelic / Parliment stuff! Loverboy is severely underrated for what they did, great rockin tracks for sure. Phrenelith are cool for what they do, nothing remarkable but don't really get any hype like Blood Incantation. Cheers Jason

[@bvdaussiemetalhead9338]

Killer response mate. Cerebral Fix is on my radar but I haven’t found anything from them yet 🤘

[@analogarchives]

Aww man really, they used to be in every bargain bin back in the day, got the vinyl I showed for a $1. hahaha. Killer band though, you would def like them knowing your taste. Cheers man!

[@theblackenedhymnschannel3985]

Cool stuff, Dennis. I love Tower of Spite great album have the cd from back in the day. Mate you really have an eclectic taste and awesome collection. Good luck in James draw. 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@analogarchives]

Yea man don't know why it took me so long to check that record out even though I owned it for years, just crushing man!

[@montopolisthrasher]

Tribal Convictions is one of Voivod's Best songs. The Best!

[@AerikVon]

Incredible song

[@analogarchives]

One of the greatest songs ever!

[@cristianosorio2517]

Hi Dennis!!! Awesome and cool entry/response to James contest..... i'm working on my entry too, and really enjoyed your "other styles/genre" of music you like beyond good ol' metal!!! Btw i also enjoy Gin & Tonic very much, Tanqueray is my brand and also not a fan of generic beer (mass produced....) cheers and be well

[@analogarchives]

Yea dude I fuck with Tanqueray as well but I used to drink it on the regular back in the day so I kinda got bored of the flavor although some of the limited batches are really good. Cheers brother , you know I'll be on the lookout for your response!

[@death5098]

Dude I just about pissed my fuckin pants when you were talking about the death row album cover! " I just wanna wear my bikini briefs and my gun is that ok" dude , love you're channel man

[@death5098]

I commented on the wrong vid I don't know how I did that. I wanted to put that on your most recent video. Whoops 😂

[@analogarchives]

Hahah, I love some of the bizarre ideas that they come up for these covers sometimes.

[@savagebrutality1]

Totally Insane, Fu Schikens hell ya old school

[@analogarchives]

Yea dude so damn good!!

[@FumesofHatred]

I'm with you on Blood Incantation. Thought I was alone on that, haha. Regarding Megadeth, I like one song, and it's on that album. That being "Hook in Mouth". I was just jamming that Blondie record last week. So good. Never get tired of it. I'm not into rap, but I used to own INI - Center of Attention (produced by Pete Rock). Actually, a pleasant listen. Probably should've held onto it. Oh, well. Album that drags down a discography.... ehhhh, probably Lair of the Minotaur - Evil Power, or DBC - Universe. Talk about a sophomore slump. Yeehikes. Great entry, Dennis!!

[@analogarchives]

Yea man Blood Incantation is boring and generic in my book, not sure who they paid off, haha. INI I don't think I've heard but if Pete Rock is involved I'm sure it's up my alley. Don't think I remember that Lair record just remember the firs one then never really went back. I like that DBC record but it's a challenging record to listen to for sure.

[@FumesofHatred]

@@analogarchives Yeah, they definitely paid someone off. Meanwhile, no one is talking about that debut Seven Doors full-length. For Lair, I recommend The Ultimate Destroyer. If you're not into that, you probably won't like any of their stuff. Some people I've talked to don't like the hardcore influence. I think you'll dig INI. They have a really smooth, laid back, jazzy kind of sound.

[@analogarchives]

@@FumesofHatred cool, I'll check it out. I really dig all the Seven Doors stuff, killer.

[@chilledmoe6542]

Agree on blood inc - not catchy enough, not tech enough, not weird enough, just kinda ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@peterock4210]

Really with you on the Helloween dislike. Don’t get the pretty massive popularity. I like BI but they really got weird with last years release. They must be a bit carried away to go into electronica/ noise after only two full lengths. Record company guys had to be happy.😂

[@bschuler6216]

Right On with that Megadeth inclusion. Objectively I know that Rust In Piece is their best, but my primitive, subjective love really goes out to SF, SG...SW & it has remained my favorite for like ever!!! That's funny. Dimension Hätrøss is the only album I ever owned by them, and...it remained impenetrable to me for all time, lol. Voivod eludes me.

[@analogarchives]

VOIVOD is def an acquired taste for sure. Dude again one of the records (sfsgsw) it took me years to get into because I just wrote it off at the time. My mistake, has some of the darkest riffs Dave has ever written imo. Cheers man!

[@This-Is-Music]

Cool picks... and you're forgiven for not liking Helloween. :D No, man, we like what we like. End of story, right? I don't get why adult men get so offended and angry if you don't like what they like. It's just childish. I need to grab that Cerebral Fix album. That Pac-Man Fever record loos like it's good fun. Love that Adam And The Ants album too. There's a ton of great Duran Duran songs out there. I like 'Wolverine Blues' despite the fact that I got hit by a 4x4 off-roader while listening to it. Best of luck in the draw.

[@analogarchives]

I agree man, people hear things differently and latch onto what they enjoy and believe me I've tried over the years with Helloween and it just doesn't do anything for me. Dude you gotta hear that PAC MAN record it's so damn catchy especially if you like old school games. You got hit by 4x4 wtf ? hopefully you were okay, shit.

[@This-Is-Music]

@@analogarchives Miraculously, I escaped pretty much unscathed, so now it's just a funny story I tell people whenever they bring up that album :D

[@thegrimmfluencer]

Killer shirt, Acephalix fucking rule. Agreed about Helloween, love Blood Incantation. So Far So Good So What isbone of my favourites, killer record. Voivod are one of the greats. Shocked me with the records you wouldn't be expected to like, fucking awesome! Wolverine Blues is cool, but not in my top Entombed albums. Great video Dennis!

[@analogarchives]

Thanks man, def a big fan of Acephalix just a killer Bay Area DM band that I've seen many times. Glad someone agrees with me about Helloween , hahah. Cheers brother always appreciate your insight and comments!

[@thegrimmfluencer]

@analogarchives I take it you know Vastum and Draghkar? Other bands with Acephalix members. Thanks Dennis!

[@analogarchives]

@@thegrimmfluencer Love Vastum and have heard Draghkar but never spent much time with their releases, def need to re visit. Thanks for reminding me.

[@thegrimmfluencer]

@analogarchives No worries Dennis! All three murder, especially Acephalix. I'd give my right bollock for the chance to see them live, the singer's a nutter onstsge!!

[@analogarchives]

@@thegrimmfluencer Yea dude he gets crazy!

[@n0s0luti0n]

I like Blood Incantation but you aren't wrong. The hype is very annoying. Marty lives 3 hours north of me, but I could still hear him screaming when you disrespected Helloween, haha. Hendricks gin is excellent, I go club soda instead of tonic. Cheers Dennis!

[@analogarchives]

I know Marty is probably screaming at me but that's okay, he doesn't like stuff I like so it's all good. haha Gotta try the Club Soda soon sounds like a good combo for sure, Hendricks is so damn good dude. Cheers

[@marksantucci4230]

I like your La Kings hat!!! I want to say that the first question sounds like somebody asked 6 years ago 1. on your side Helloween keeper of the 7 keys 2. Frealon 3.. Megadeth So far so good so what 4. Vovoid 5 what you mentioned up top 6. Pack Man Fever, Adam and the Ants , Duran Duran , Loverboy, Commodres , Blondie , Toto Asia, 7.. entomb running blues 8. Marylon death fest 9 10 11. favorite drink Gin and Tonic my answers 1. would be Slayer, Pantera everybody likes them and I don't 2. A band that I discovered by accident I can't think 3. is also hard a band or album that I use to dislike but now like I have to think I got one Wasp. I never really like them along time ago but now they seem to be a very good band 4. Metallica 5. again very tough questions 6. I can't think 7. Judas Priest - Ram it down 8 nothing for me 9. nothing appeals to me 10 11.. Beer. questions 1. which albums do you like the best Walls of Jericho , the album i'm missing or keeper of the 7 keys? 2 what are your thoughts when Kiss released Dynasty and Judas Priest released Point of Entry and Turbo did you like them when you first heard them? 3. do you have any favorite players for the Kings? 4. how would you rank these albums from your least favorite to favorite? Judas Priest Turbo Metallica ST Anger Kiss Dynasty Judas Priest - Point of Entry Judas Priest - Ram it down

[@analogarchives]

Whoa dude bonus questions!! hahah. My fave Helloween is the EP total speed metal classic. Point of Entry kinda blows and so does Turbo not super familiar with Dynasty, honestly not a huge KISS fan but own all the old shit. Not a fave player on the KIngs but Anze is a obvious choice. In order and like I said don't recall Dynasty but Turbo, St. Anger , Point of Entry and Ram it Down.

[@marksantucci4230]

@@analogarchives 1. Not a Helloween fan 2. I wasn't the smartest person about music I guess I thought it was an ok album Dynasty pretty good I thought Hot Rockin was a very heavy track and I like heading out to the highway better. as far as Turbo goes and that time I recorded music off the radio or borrowed somebody's tapes I never got Turbo until I got some cd's. 3. I like Marcel Dionne and a few years ago Jeff Carter 4. 5. would be St Anger 4. Ram it down 3. Turbo 2. Dynasty 1. Point of Entry

[@savagebrutality1]

I'm in same boat with Blood Incantation & Frozen Soul, meh seen both live, Frozen pretty cheesy

[@analogarchives]

Dude Blood Incantation live was one of the most boring shows I've ever seen. Frozen Soul to me just sounds like Metalcore kids that just discovered Bolt Thrower to me , oh well just my opinion.

[@savagebrutality1]

True at both, Frozen Soul didn't even know who Vader was when my homie on tour with them mentioned the legends lol@@analogarchives

[@analogarchives]

@@savagebrutality1 I'm really not surprised.

[@savagebrutality1]

Live they ordered everyone to do pushes by the guitarist who they call Sgt. of metal i was like dude don't even know who Vader is lol @@analogarchives

[@spencergrady5501]

Blood Incantation are way better than Frozen Soul in my humble opinion.

[@analogarchives]

I agree with that statement.

[@oldschoolpunkandmetal]

Totally agree with you on Helloween, never understood why people like that band. Super boring and generic "speed metal". Glad to say, that I don't own one of the records as I would not pay more than 3 bucks for it. Personally never got into Megadeth and Voivoid either, just not my cup of tea.

[@analogarchives]

Ha , yea never understood the hype on Helloween either. Like Megadeth and VoiVod but can def see why people wouldn't. Cheers

[@billconway4860]

not a fan of Helloween but i like voivod

[@analogarchives]

Exactly... except the first EP , that one rips

[@mazeoftorment805]

Don't get the BI love either. Boring on record and boring live. Way better bands doing something kind of similair out there but without the stupid "we wroship sapce" shit.

[@bschuler6216]

Space Chaser 😂🤣🤣

[@analogarchives]

Yea who knows man, I think they just hit the scene at the right time right place and then got way over hyped and they actually believe it.
