if some of you guys have a similar taste in music, could you let me know what else you listen to?

Also, Led Zeppelin *think 70's Davo*, wtf I can't think of ANY good 70 rock groups??

You might like Pink Floyd.

thanks, i like a little bit of black sabbath(iron man, warpigs) and stairway to heaven by led zeppelin(but i wouldn't listen to it in the car)

i found a few other songs i like:
mushroomhead - solitaire unravelling
mushroomhead - crazy
mushroomhead - born of desire

i think i like some 80s rock and weird sounding metal/rock lol. i suck at figuring out genres... :loser:

thanks for being culturally educated enough to listen to music, and not noise :D maybe theres still hope in the world

i think this Kiss qualifies as noise. :biggrin:

other than that, everyone covered your question. any 80's hair/metal band will suffice, though i havent seen judas priest mentioned, you might look into them

Megadeth is probably your best bet if you like Iron Maiden

hammerfall very much like maiden, megadeath is more metallica like, mostly cause the guitarist in megadeath played in metallica before :P

lol, yeah, i hate stupid "ROOOOOAAARRR BLAH BLAH WOOOOOOOOOOOOO (drums) RAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWRRRRR DIIIE DIE MOTHERFUCKER BRAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRR" kinda music. heh. (read: cradle of filth) my sister listens to that stuff. shes retarded.

i've got "hearts on fire" by hammerfall. thats a great song, it is a lot like iron maiden :grinyes:

megadeth's "hangar 18" is cool too.

im going to try and compilate a cd with nothing but the REAL GOOD songs that i can listen to over and over. lol. so far i've got:

mushroomhead - "crazy" :ylsuper:
iron maiden - "mother russia" :ylsuper:
megadeth - "hangar 18"
megadeth - "holy wars"
hammerfall - "hearts on fire"
hammerfall - "blood bound"
hammerfall - "crimson thunder"
hammerfall - "eternal dark" :ylsuper:
anthrax - "madhouse" (you know, from GTA: VC?)

i need about 80min to fill a cd.

though Cradle of Filth isn't 'Roaarrr die motherfuckers BangBang' music, its black metal, and the base of death metal/black metal is iron maiden like bands, just look at the texts, its midieval, fantasy lyrics with no connection to reality. 'Die motherfuckers' music is more like Nasum, or Mastodon or whatever all that crap's called.. i believe the main reason u dont like cradle of filth then is the singing style.. still.. its not 1/100 as good as the real metal bands ;) Maiden, ACDC, Metallica, Thin Lizzy and Led Zeppelin.. earorgazm :ylsuper:

EDGUY, thats a close as ur gonna get to maiden. unless ur lookin for maiden cover bands.

I dunno if its exactly like Iron Maiden by "Smiling Like a Killer" by Motorhead is pretty good, so is "Overkill" Lemmy sure has one unique voice

Also some good 'Deth tunes would be Symphony of Destruction, Peace Sells...But Who's Buying? just to name a few

Mushroomhead...good ole cleveland boys...

Anyways if you like Slipknot, try some stuff like Trivium, Arch Enemy, Soilwork and Chimaira (another Cleveland band...prejudiced??? you bet!)

Die motherfuckers' music is more like Nasum, or Mastodon

Just a question, but have you ever actually listened to mastodon, and looked at the lyrics? Please think before spouting. thanks.

and yeah.. I was wondering when someone was going to mention Trivium. good stuff.

a few songs you might like

Metallica: No Leaf Clover (has orchestra in it); fade to black; One

Hammerfall: Dragon lies bleeding (awesome song :D)

try Machine Men

the singer sounds exactly like bruce
killer stuff!

You gotta check out Iced Earth, think a much heavier more technical iron maiden. Some good songs are "dragon's child" , "the reckoning", and "jeckyl and hyde".
