How about Dirty Blonde? Passion & Girls Nite Out were fun but it’s Ladies in Mercedes that always manages to stick to my brain cells like music bubblegum #vinylrecords #glam #hairmetal #80sMusic

How about ‘the other’ Pretty Boy Floyd? I actually dig this Canadian bunch - their sound closer to Junkyard than Hollywood’s Glam Leather Boyz #vinylrecords #hairmetal #glam #metalsky

Feels like a good day to dust off some old and semi obscure #hairmetal gems, starting with Italy’s answer to the mighty Hanoi Rocks: the Boohoos - Rocks for Real #vinylrecords #glam #hardrock #metalsky

Here is a rather obscure #HairMetal band: Wizekrak - Baltimore’s answer to Poison (maybe not as good looking?!?) Got a bit of a buzz going but moved to Hollywood way too late. Their tunes were absolute glam pop heaven #metalsky #GlamMetal #HairMetalSky

Back in Italia for 3 hour Sunday lunch. Missed the vibes…and the wines

The new Immortal Bird is the most terrifying blend of dissonant #DeathMetal n haunting #blackmetal of 2024. This is the antiparticle to Xmas music #metalsky #DeathMetalSky

Molder - Catastrophic Reconfiguration might not make my final #AOTY list but it’s a fantastic #deathmetal record nonetheless What a great fall this was for extreme music #metalsky #DeathMetalSky

FULL FORCE FRIDAY:⚔️December 6th, 2024💢⚔️ "All those dreams and broken glass, Swept down the sewer with the rest of the trash, never to be seen again.." 💢 📢60 for the Walls of Deth!➡️Hello from the gutter…Have Riffs, Have Metal! 💢 #FFFDec6 #MetalSky Comment and RT.🤘👹🤘#KMäN

Hello #Dublin. We are back in you

I think my #AOTY is done. Had 3/4 #deathmetal albums floating close to my event horizon. Played them all a ton this week and one ultimately stood well above the others Coffin Rot - Dream of the Disturbed Sublime riffs from start to finish #metalsky #DeathMetalSky

If you ask me for a better #HEAVYMETAL album from the past 5 years, I’d struggle to come up with many picks over @spiritadriftm.bsky.social - Enlightened in Eternity My #AOTY in 2020 and a treasured part of my #vinylcollection #metalsky

Another one from the US #vinylcollection that I’ll be missing while in Europe Nocturnus - the Key An absolute #deathmetal classic #DeathMetalSky #metalsky

This is another obscure glam/sleaze act that I really liked back in the day. Discovered Denmark’s Sateria via Metal Forces as Ken Anthony was their manager Cold Beer…and a Hatful of Fun was such a great demo - total Crüe/Poison vibes #HardRock #HairMetal #metalsky

About to head back to Europe and playing some of my fave #vinylrecords that I wont see for 3 months, starting with Palo Verde by Psychlona. Not sure I’ve many #doom #stoner albums that I rate higher over the past 5 years #HardRock #NowPlaying

Before TKO and the (impossibly good) Bang Gang we had Culprit. Sound of the band was deeply rooted in early 80s Seattle power metal and far from the glam bliss of Love Sells. Throw in Mike Varney’s rough production and you have 1 odd piece of #heavymetal history #metalsky

If you like #BillyBobThornton playing a Billy Bob Thornton character in a Billy Bob Thornton series, #Landman is for you…and me

Every time I think ‘#deathmetal has been uninspiring this year’, we get Molder Recidivist Mammoth Grinder Stabwound Gutless Konkhra @ritualfog.bsky.social In a matter of weeks. Shut up, Marco 😂 #DeathMetalSky #metalsky

Who knew #deathmetal could be so effing catchy?!? And…Shall we talk about the cover art?!? Konkhra dropped a scorcher, friends #deathmetalsky #NewRelease #metalsky

New Konkhra is killer. From the first, Morbid-Angel infused riff through the end. Liked every second of it #metalsky #DeathMetalSky

FULL FORCE FRIDAY:⚔️November 29th, 2024💢⚔️ “Long ago I wandered through my mind, In the land of fairy tales and stories, Lost in happiness I had no fears….”💢 📢 71 for the Walls of Deth!➡️Was It Illusion?…Have Riffs, Have Metal! 💢 #FFFNov29 Comment and RT.🤘👹🤘#KMäN

#HappyThanksgiving all Time for Family, Food, Football n Fkkin’Riffs #metalsky

New @ritualfog.bsky.social dropped today and it’s as good as I hoped. If you’re in the mood for some old skool death+thrash a la Malevolent Creation, you better tuck in! #metalsky #DeathMetalSky ritualfogdm.bandcamp.com/album/but-me...

Another outstanding #deathmetal release from earlier this year that doesn’t get talked about enough Obscurial - Heretic Thank you @kmanriffs.bsky.social as usual 😉 #metalsky #DeathMetalSky violenceintheveins.bandcamp.com/album/heretic

Wake-up call set again for 5:30 tomorrow AM for a VC at 6. Will need another gallon of coffee and some OSDM to kick into gear. I’m thinking Cause of Death, Onward to Golgotha, Shadows in the Deep #metalsky #DeathMetalSky

Had totally forgotten how great this mix of OSDM and dissonant beats is. This is tech #DeathMetal for the new age. One of the Obscura dudes is in the band after all #metalsky #DeathMetalSky evilyndm.bandcamp.com/album/mondes...

In a world of copycats, Ecclesia managed to develop a unique blend of sounds that continues to blow my mind. Part Candlemass, part Ghost, part #JudasPriest - this is epic Doom #metalsky #DoomMetalSky #AOTY ecclesia-official.bandcamp.com/album/eccles...

My fave Stryper album since Against the Law. Title track is something special. Can’t believe M.Sweet’s voice still sounds that good after al these years #HardRock #metalsky #HairMetal

The more I listen to the new Triumpher the more I dig it. This is #powermetal the way I like it: majestic, grandiose, larger than life #metalsky

I literally cannot stop playing these 4 #deathmetal records that came out recently: Stabwound Recidivist Coffin Rot Ashen Tomb This is filthy, grimy, scary stuff #DeathMetalSky #metalsky

Animal Instinct by @tygersofpantang.bsky.social is one underrated record. One of the crispest production job and vox performances. Nice way to start the weekend #metalsky #hardrock #NWOBHM

Enjoying the fkk outta Crossbone Skully Best blend of AC/DC, Alice & Junkyard I’ve heard in a while Like Rhino Bucket with a touch of glam Might just purchase the LP today

Classic Metal: Yes Hair Metal: FOREVER Speed Metal: Yes Nu Metal: meh Gothic Metal: Yes Black Metal: Some Doom Metal: You bet Death Metal: FKK Yes Power Metal: Yes Symphonic Metal: no Industrial: no Folk Metal: mmhhh Thrash Metal: always Prog Metal: some

FULL FORCE FRIDAY:⚔️November 22nd, 2024💢⚔️ " Well it's a cold world, And I'm in the middle, Caught in the in-between, I don't belong here, So I'm writing to you, it's wrong here...."💢 📢56 for the Walls of Deth!➡️Letters from Earth...Have Riffs, Have Metal! 💢 #FFFNov22 Comment and RT.🤘👹🤘#KMäN

Brunate - Lake Como - this morning

@doomedparade.bsky.social @kmanriffs.bsky.social @nigesavage.bsky.social @hmmaniac.bsky.social @bangersp.bsky.social @holocene-epoch.bsky.social Mortal Vision, the Ukrainian thrash masters, are raising $$ 2 record 2nd album via paypal. Pls share n help if you can #metalsky [email protected]

Some OGs still have it. Sadus have been kings of death thrash for decades and still deliver absolute scorchers like their last opus #metalsky #thrashmetal #DeathMetalSky #vinylcollection

Certain to crack the 1K threshold during this upcoming #FFFNov22 drop! Tell the world. Seriously. Tell it.

Introduce yourself with 4 records

In honor of @hellrippermetal.bsky.social joining Blue Sky I decided to blast that incredibile speed rush that is the Affair of the Poisons #metalsky #BlackMetalSky

Angel of Disease by #MorbidAngel might be one of my fave #DeathMetal tunes ever. Maybe it’s the Morbid Tales @tomgabrielwarrior.bsky.social vibe #DeathMetalSky

Recovering from small surgery: Carcass comeback masterpiece seems to fit the situation tonight #NowPlaying Surgical Steel #DeathMetalSky #metalsky

Original LA Guns vocalist, Paul Black, led a great freaking sleaze’n’roll band after leaving Tracii & Co: Black Cherry. Too bad that few tunes are available nowadays but do check out Devil in You to appreciate what we missed out on #GlamMetal #HairMetal #HardRock #metalsky

Before becoming the sleaziest and most incendiary band in Hollywood since #GunsNRoses, Love/Hate wanted to be #DuranDuran so bad. Data Clan sounded nothing like the blissful insanity blasting out of Blackout in the Red Room #GlamMetal #HairMetal #metalsky

𝔉𝔦𝔯𝔢 ℑ𝔫 𝔗𝔥𝔢 ℌ𝔬𝔩𝔢- Album of the Week! 💣💢 SERGEANT THUNDERHOOF - The Ghost of Badon Hill 🇬🇧💢 TGoBH is nothing short of a sonic triumph, showcasing ST's evolution, blending their signature Stoner Rock with a richer, more focused lyrical narrative! #FITH #AOTW #KMäN

I’m positive @celestialsanctuary.bsky.social will take another huge step w/ their first album on @nuclearblast.bsky.social but raw AF debut remains one of my fave #deathmetal records of 2020 Soul Dimished deserves your attention #DeathMetalSky #metalsky

Before Hardline, the Gioeli brothers were in one of Hollywood’s top drawing acts, Brunette, and managed by none other than Bill Aucoin, the dude behind Kiss from 73 to 82 #GlamMetal #HairMetal #HardRock #metalsky

Original Jetboy lineup. Still one of the best glam bands from the golden era. Too bad label politics delayed their debut album long enough to truly damage their career #GlamMetal #HairMetal #HardRock #MetalSky

Before inventing a new sound n becoming grunge kings, the mighty #AliceInChains were a Poison lookalike in 1987 #hairmetal #GlamMetal #HardRock #metalsky

Hey #deathmetalsky - looking for an impossibly good slab of modern DM? Look no further than ReBuried - Repulsive Nature. Absolute masterclass #metalsky

Do you miss the old days of hairspray, leather, lipstick, bandannas and videos on MTV? Feel free to join in the convo. We’ll talk about old and new, as well as many that never were go.bsky.app/N7hNHJS
