by **Taliwakker** » Thu Sep 22, 2005 11:59 am

My AOW is Vagabond - s/t. Given it a few spins (after quite some time) and i like most of it...a few clunkers in there though.

by **Bobbi Flekman** » Thu Sep 22, 2005 7:04 pm

One of the few good bands from the LA Scene at the time... Ratt - Invasion Of Your Privacy.

My AOTW for this week is:

Shy - Sunset & Vine

Nuno: Schizophonic!

AOTW is Judas Priest - Angel of Retribution

by **doggy** » Thu Sep 29, 2005 8:04 am

ATOW is "Runaway Brides" by Brides of Destruction, it takes a few listens to get into it, but its not a classic like their 1st.

Strangely enough, I'm going mainstream for my AOTW. My friend burned me a copy of Disturbed "Ten Thousand Fists" which I thought I was gonna hate (I heard the singles from the album. I wasn't impressed.) But when I heard the album, I was surprised! There's actually some decent rock stuff that goes beyond the usual angry screaming! In particular, they do a pretty rockin' cover of Genesis's "Land of Confusion."

I never thought I'd ever say that Disturbed was good, but I am today. :oops:

Mine is Paatos-Kallocain. A cross between the Gathering and Portishead. Mellow stuff.

and shame on you JB :lol:

(ps i actually have the first 2 Disturbed albums...so i can't really talk)

by **Bobbi Flekman** » Thu Sep 29, 2005 6:37 pm

Mine is either the new Sheryl Crow ("Wildflower") or Vanilla Ninja ("Blue Tattoo"). Haven't decided yet.

I need to choose between Lande/Allen, Symphony X - The Odyssey and After Forever - Remagine... They are all good, but very different from eachother. Out of all these albums the song I was most taken with was by After Forever; Being Everyone. So I'll go with them this week.

Lande/Allen-The Battle

by **Jonny B** » Wed Oct 05, 2005 12:03 pm

AOTW goes to an almost-forgotten classic: Lillian Axe "Love + War." There was a lot of copying and formulizing in the 80's, but Lillian Axe were one of the few that sounded different from the others. Vocal melodies & harmonies are almost 90's-esk, so they sounded ahead of their time a little. I feel that these guys would've been the next big thing if grunge had never set in.

Speaking of the Axe, where are they now? An announcement of a new album, then nothing since...will it even be worth listening now that their original singer is gone?

I´ve been enjoying Symphony X ........ a compilation

Need I say more?

Well, since you're asking... I suppose you could explain why I first need to ask you about a Lita cover you didn't post, while you singlehandedly post a cover with a guy on it... wearing a, what is it he's wearing btw??? Is there something I should know about? :lol:

Well, now I post something for the girls, and it's not okay either.... Damned if you do, damned if you don't. By the way, I posted covers before. Remember Lizzy?
About what he wears.... Do I care? if it's in the female form I hope it is next to nothing..... But guys, nah.... If you want I can start a thread about girls..... :wink:

I never knew Pat Travers was a gay double amputee

Um, that's my point... I think.

AOTW = Queensryche - "Operation Mindcrime"

by **Penny** » Sun Oct 09, 2005 11:22 am

Blind Guardian - Touched by the Crimson King.

I like the album a lot, but I really think that bands should STOP covering Led Zep.

by **Taliwakker** » Thu Oct 13, 2005 9:36 am

Sieges Even-The Art of Navigating By the Stars....brilliant comeback album...its taken a few listens to fully grasp but was well worth the effort

by **Jonny B** » Thu Oct 13, 2005 10:03 am

Gotta go with a keyboard klassic this week: Giuffria "S/T" is my AOTW. The ultimate wet dream for keyboard fans and keyboardists alike.

Here's to hoping the next House of Lords and Giuffria comebacks are just a pompy as the originals.

by **Bobbi Flekman** » Thu Oct 13, 2005 7:24 pm

The album is Van Halen's 5150, but I do have to satisfy my sweet girl with the posting of a picture so here goes

And while we're at it.... When are they gonna be re-released!

Well, I wouldn't say satisfy... :lol:

The picture is reassuring though. You probably realised that the 5150 cover would get you into even more trouble, didn't you? :lol:

by **doggy** » Fri Oct 14, 2005 8:23 am

ATOW is "Rescue You" by Joe Lynn Turner.

by **Taliwakker** » Fri Oct 14, 2005 9:59 am

I'd like to thank Bobbi for redeeming himself by not gaying up the thread any further.

by **Kenny** » Fri Oct 14, 2005 2:45 pm

I'll join Doggy in a bit of Joe Lynn Turner, except my AOTW is 'The Usual Suspects'.

by **maidenman77** » Wed Oct 19, 2005 9:59 am

by **Kenny** » Wed Oct 19, 2005 2:31 pm
