Fritos are better with bean dip than with salsa

And

Iron Maiden is better than Metallica

As you were......

Yep

Your first statement is correct.

Iron Maiden is different from Metallica. Both are good.

Yes and absolutely not

Metallica rocks. Louder the better

Louder is better..... then you prefer Manowar to Metallica ??

Old metallica is far better than new metallica. They lost it when they cut their hair.

Loud is only better if the music is good to start with.

Nothing would make fritos good, just putting lipstick on a pig.

What? Huh?

Agreed

Agreed

Strongly disagree..... Fritos could be considered one of the worlds greatest food achievement. Great with bean dip and even greater dumping them into a big bucket of chili. Worth the couple thousand steps to work the carbs off

Metallica and Iron Maiden together would make your ears bleed. I'd be in.

Definitely bean dip but JP over both those punk bands...imo...

I’ll take Motley Crue over either of those two...and Fritos rock with anything, especially an RC Cola and a moonpie!

Nothing wrong with British Steel Grumley !!

I thought Yoo-Hoos went with Moon Pies ?? Crue — needs to be Girls and before for me

This is what I pictured when I read the op. lol

Motely Crue is nothing but an overgrown boy band.

Outstanding Hobbie.....but no LOL


Wanna Be — you gonna take that ?? After some serious thought— Shout at the Devil is my favorite Motley album

I will agree Shout at the Devil was a decent album, but they went downhill from there.

Specifically from screaming for vengeance and earlier..

Things went really south right around Theater of Pain...... commercialization wrecked them for sure.

Agreed!

Grumley— I vote for Defenders of the Faith as my favorite

I think I was 16 or 17 when that song came out and still listen to them during my workouts at 53. One of the young therapist next door to our gym was in with a patient and pulled my ear buds out wanting to see what an “old man” listens to while they workout...she was quite surprised, lol. I like AC/DC and Molly Hatchet for workout songs as well.

Working out needs aggressive music for sure. Five finger death punch, disturbed and avenged sevenfold for me. Throw in sabaton for cardio.

Its a good one, British Steel is another...the riff in Metal gods is hard to beat, even better live. I've seen almost all the bands mentioned in this thread, I'm getting old...lol

Similar story here..... the owner of the gym here looked at my phone..... then wondered how a guy listening to Helloween and Motörhead could move so slow on a treadmill. !! LOL

Even 50 here by the way—and seen most everybody mentioned as well

Gotcha by 5..

Never listened to Sabaton or Avenged Sevenfold....... check them out tomorrow

Since opening this thread I've got Run To The Hills stuck in my head.

You can thank me later Trapdog. !!! LOL

I’m out fellas—take it easy

Ummm metallica is better don't ever spout such heresy again

Darn youngin....

-Fritos are fit for nothing more than fire startin in a pinch

-Both Iron Maiden and Metallica are for men who were gender confused as preteens lol

I'm an oldin' and I'll take Metallica too.

If you think Metallica was for gender confused teens, what about Cinderella and Ratt?

Yeah, the train kind of ran off the rails when the glam rockers showed up in the mid eighties..

I grew up on glam rock. I love that music still.

Epic vocals and screaming guitar solos.

Metalliqueer was a sell-out before it was a thing. Corporate Mtv rock. Nuthuggers.
Iron Maiden is a socialist, commie band...despite "run to the hills" being a low-key
fave of mine, but only for the drumwork, insane.
Bean dip is for pillow-biters, what was the other thing?

I you're gonna workout, then you need some Pantera! You're welcome! (Better than both, btw!)

Amen and hallelujah.

The ONLY good thing about Iron Maiden was the posters, album covers and T Shirts. Those were kind of cool. Their music however shouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence as Metallica.

But, I do agree with the comment above that Metallica dropped off big time with the haircuts.

I'm a consumer of all types of music, 60's on up and even some of that poppy glam rock..

Set the bar for metal

AC/DC was earlier and thrashier.

And JP was earlier yet...

... not sure what band Cinderella Rat is.. but if I had to guess I’d say they’re for men who had handsy uncles when they were growing up

Earlier sure... i said set the bar. Ac/dc = 4/4 simple beats... then repeat. Dynomite

I eat fritos as they come out of the bag. Never listened to Metallica on purpose. Guess I am --Stuck in the 60's.
Tom

Nothing wrong with that 60's music to me..some good stuff.

Yeah, and Pavoratti or whatever his name was, was fancy too. Some dudes dig that.

Cheetos are purdy good with sour cream and chives beside a ham sandwich and Geo Striat is the King.

None of yall will ever change my mind and if Chris Ledoux was still around he might tell ya the same. I think Strait was still recording a few cowboy songs when Ledoux passed, but he sure hasn't lately.

Crunchy Cheetos not those puffy things for "men" who drive Outbacks and pee pee sittin down

Yep Fritos with Bean dip

Maiden and Metallica are both good but I prefer the Scorpions

The Zoo, great tune.

Yessir

I concur.

Probably won't be able to listen to that song again.....uffda.

Well after wading through this mess this morning I’ve made a couple of conclusions:

1. I think Savell probably paints his toenails and reads poetry to flowers at the Park
2. Leftlane is some sort of food terrorist—sour cream on Cheetos .... you need help

3. Nearly all off us can agree that older music from most of the bands mentioned is better than the newer material —.

Like Grumley, I listen to nearly everything with the exception of rap and hip hop.

Oh, Big City Nights gets my vote for best Scorpions tune— World Wide Live best album

Tostitos Dippers were made for salsa. I make my own salsa and I add sugar.

Before there was Metallica, Iron Maiden, and fancy dip for chips..........

Who is this supergoose character? I thought I was the only goose around here.

Scorpions are one of the few bands that I think did not get worse with time. Their sound changed, but it was still great.

Alien nation is one of their later songs, one of their heaviest, and one of my favorites.

Loose, been here a long time. Seldom have much to say— as you can tell from this post !!
I do more reading than typing.

Scorpions got even better when Mickey - Dee took over the drums

For a concert band Iron Maiden has it hands down. They actually run real close to beating out Alice Cooper for a stage show.

Pure energy in concert Maiden again. Metallica got a lot better with the addition of Trujillo.

Pure aggressiveness. Metallica.

Song content. For me it's basically a tie. Maiden got more into the social injustice end of things if you listen closely to the lyrics. Metallica touches on a lot of mental stuff.

With all that being said... If I'm driving down the road to go hunting or fishing and pick up 2 CD's I'm putting in a Metallica one. Nothing like pulling into a packed parking lot with "Creeping Death" cranking and watch everyone turn and look at you funny.
If I'm just out tolling around I'll put in Maiden.


If you have a chance take a listen to Iced Earth's song "Gettysburg". It's a long long long song that basically go through the whole battle. It's amazingly done.

Now I must admit--I have listened to Nugent. But then again he started in the 60s Journey to the center of the mind--when he was with Amboy Dukes. Very good song.
Tom

Must be a Kids on the Block fan.

Well done Sir !!

iron maiden puts matallica to shame over 40 years together and still touring and putting out music,matallica is used up years ago. fritoes are good for starting fires with. banchee

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh....lmao. Thats funny there...and it was Vanilla Ice. Lmao!
I just couldnt get into but a few Metallica songs, but i digress...
They brought it out.

I always forget how many great songs the Scorpions had. Im better with songs than artists.
Edit...and bean dip is gnarly, just had to add a nutkick as well.
Cant get into beans. Not good with stuff that looks that it's already been passed.

I listen to all types of music from bluegrass to bock except rap and hip hop. But always play the old black sabbath and led zeppelin at work. Metallica and maiden are right there to. I get funny looks when somebody comes up to me with metal playing in my shovel with my grey hair and all.
