There is still a beating heart in metal as long as King Diamond, Halford, Dickinson, and Owens are around IMO.

[@kaugummigeschmacke6905]

We have so many new candidates for future headliners on the horizon (Riot City, Traveller, Venator, Blood Star, Enforcer, Lucifer and so on). People just don't make an effort to discover them. The greatness ones who started it all is unbeatable but they will all end their careers within the next decade and people need to understand that this doesn't mean that metal will die.

[@TS-hi8vo]

@@kaugummigeschmacke6905 very true, but it’s also how they are embraced in the music industry that will determine their future. If they don’t “click” the way the lamb of gods, slipknots, and currently sleep tokens of the world have been, they won’t survive. It’s a different world now, sadly.

[@yuriyv4239]

Hetfield also to the list

[@jessiesratrods1210]

This is what I miss about metal. The unrefined "Band in a Garage" sound. Like they threw the entire band in a Highschool theater stage and recorded it all at once on tape. Every pop of the tape and imperfection of the band shows ever so subltly in that early era. It was like you were there in the room with them as they made art. Loud, nasty, badass, heavy, unrefined, and full of the heart and soul of the band. 🤘

[@kaugummigeschmacke6905]

There are still so many bands (yes, also new ones) that embrace that sound. Try listening to bands like Midnight, Axetasy, Bütcher, Interceptor, Vulture or Phantom G.D.L. just to name a few. It's not like they're not there, it's just that people are somehow allergic to discovering new bands, esspecially in metal.

[@kal9673]

Well, this is a live record...i saw them last nbight here in Chile, andthe sound was incredible, bur not like "garage band" in my opinion, its more laike a modern or repowered Black Sabbath! ImI

[@daveromick1]

This sounded heavy and evil as fuck live!

[@Tchernobog]

people upset that it isn't a studio version are forgetting that an appeal of some of the greatest early metal songs is that they sound like they were recorded with the worst equipment and shrouded in background noise

[@BlackieNuff]

Agreed... otherwise known as "demos" and/or "bootlegs", lol. How quick they forget...

[@8bitakvids]

I don't want any super polished stuff from MF. I like it raw and gritty and shitty if at all possible 🤘

[@culcune]

Venom's first few albums

[@BlackieNuff]

_"an appeal of some of the greatest early metal songs is that they sound like they were recorded with the worst equipment and shrouded in background noise"_ Not for me. I like clean and pristine. I can accept that a demo is a demo, and a bootleg is a bootleg, and the sound quality of those will not always (if ever) be very good. I have a couple of live MF bootlegs from the early 80s, that I hated the sound of at first, but now I've come to accept them for what they are, and despite how awful they sound, they've grown on me. Though I did run them through a bit of my own editing and audio enhancing magic so they sounded a _little_ better, but the source material is what it is, and there was only so much I could do to improve it. Given the choice, though, I will take and always prefer a professionally recorded studio recording any day. The production quality can vary, from too much bass and "muddy" sounding to not enough bass and sounding "tinny" (that I can usually fix through my own editing and remastering), as long as it sounds better than your average bootleg or homemade demo recorded in the garage or basement. I honestly cannot fathom why some people think "garbage" quality sounds "good"? All this "oooh it sounds gritty and dirty and raw and nasty, blaahhhhh!" shit is just a bunch of stupid posturing. Trying to come off as some kind of cool "rebel" that is "edgy" or something, claiming to like something that virtually no one else with proper taste for audio would ever consider remotely listenable - that's just weak. You're not edgy ; you're tone-deaf and have been listening to too many shitty MP3s at less than 160kbps.

[@BlackieNuff]

@@culcune YES!! I dunno if you just mean the first 3, but I include everything from the 80s, even 1987's Calm Before The Storm, despite the stylistic changes. There's some good "classic Venom" tunes on there. At least Cronos is still frontman. But most definitely, those first 4 albums and the "~ Assault" EP(s), and even the live albums (bootleg and official alike) are all must-haves in any Venom library.

[@shelleyclark6459]

Reminds me of dead again with and old school Melissa feel, Love it.

[@donaldboggs2553]

Played a 40 year old copy of Melissa on tape earlier today cause my phone was down for a while but it's up and running now and to my surprise I find a new m.f. tune how cool is that

[@carloscoelho659]

Exactly 40 years ago I discovered this top Danish band in a music magazine. M.Fate or King D. Both Awesome Metal sounds.🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠

[@stanleybroniszewsky8538]

When I first heard Merciful Fate, I immediately fell in love with the music, but I never saw how King looked in makeup. I was initially surprised but it grew on me fast. But after seeing King without the makeup on, I was thinking he looked like a guy who works at a dealership fixing Harley Davidsons. I was like, this dude is so cool.

[@gackolusj.s.764]

MERCYFUL FATE forever, forever and ever. Amen

[@dj_tika]

Amen? You mean Shemhamforash? 😉🤘

[@derek5628]

The fact that it’s recorded with this sound quality almost makes it sound like the first two albums lol it’s actually pretty cool when you think about it

[@MohamedAkhbar]

This is the live performance not an actual studio recording

[@derek5628]

@@MohamedAkhbar I’m aware. That’s my whole point.

[@mehurar]

This is life!! Oh my fucking God, sooo good!

[@Joybuzzard]

I just realized why the old albums were better, the normal way to record used to be having the band all play at the same time and then overdub lead guitar and layered vocals after, these days everything is recorded in isolation with click tracks and sequencers and the quest for 'perfection' which kind of hollows out the music. Live albums were always my favorite.

Better than Don't Brake the Oath or anything from the 80s? Surely you jest! That or you're into some really heavy drugs.

[@lucagrigoli7453]

No Dantres i am not into drugs. Ok this is a row recording but ideas, the alternante dooms and ballads parts, the solo very inspired like inspired vocals i like so much. To me the best things of fate goes from in the shadow to into the unknown. There is in my opinion the maturity super ispirate songwriting and recording. @@MrDantres

[@MrDantres]

yeah... don't take offence by my comment, this is the silly Internet. I see where you're coming from, we have clearly distinct tastes. For me, that period you mentioned in their career can't hold a candle to their earlier stuff, but to each their own, right? Peace! @lucagrigoli7453

[@lucagrigoli7453]

Don't worry Dante's i wrote only my opinion no hard feelings with you. You say an interesting thing when you say we know where you come from. What doe it means? Maybe you think that the musical feel, perception of an European is different from for example an american'''? No hilarious or polemical in my question is really interesting. @@MrDantres

[@MrDantres]

oh no, I didn't say that based on some theory or something like that. I only said it because the Mercyful Fate phase you love the most is clearly delineated in their sonority, imo from In the Shadows onwards, while before that album they had a different sound. 2 different reincarnations, kind of like Maiden's two Bruce eras.There are many more fans who prefer the 80's and then there's a smaller bunch who prefers post Brave New World stuff. btw are you American? I'm Portuguese, and judging by your nickname I'd say you're Italian lol@@lucagrigoli7453
