You know what, listening to these to songs, I do hear a similar guitar riff inside of them. I'm wondering if it's coincidental or not. A strong suggestion to it not being coincidental is that Michael Amott played guitar on both albums, and he actually did co-write Incarnated Solvent Abuse. Either way, two great songs!!

Self plagiarism is rife in metal. It should come as no surprise really.

Yeah, that is true, I just thought it was an interesting curiosity.

OK, so I decided to do a Death marathon. Listened to Scream Bloody Gore and Leprosy yesterday, let's see what I can do today.

I don't think I appreciate Death enough. I have pretty much all their albums but don't listen to them much. But whenever I do I always think how awesome the music is and wonder why I don't give them more time.

Human is the best Death album imo.

Oh shit, I just realized that I didn't edit the OP to put the Stryper album there. In any case I finished my Death marathon, here's my ranking:
1. Symbolic
2. Human
3. Leprosy
4. Scream Bloody Gore
5. The Sound of Perseverance
6. Individual Thought Patterns
7. Spiritual Healing

This song is oddly addictive.

Cool metal CGI video from a non phyiscal band.

Let's paste some live works of art in the making here.

Avantasia the scarecrow live, damn this number is freaking amazing and Jorn is like the embodyment of Scandinavian metal.

This song is really amazing and Floor is the best singer the Netherlands have ever produced, also there is way toofew love for live and symphonic metal here.

You didn't honestly think I wouldn't post a Maiden song, really like the theatrics on this one and everyone already knows how bloody awesome this song is. But what's way more awesome about this song is the crowd. Reminds me of the two times I saw Maiden live it's really epic being in the middle of such a crowd. 

I hear Jorn Lande so I like this number
