Scorpions - Humanity Hour 1
Saxon - Carpe Diem
Iron Maiden - The Number of the Beast

I'll vouch for these!
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

I'm listening to this now..




Holy shit, this album is freaking cool as shit. Metal thrash! Vocals are a bit...kind of a mix between Alexi/Chuck/King Diamond/Mike Muir.

Musically, it's kind of F&J meets Suicidal.

Well, I listened to my first Slash featuring MK and the C's. I bought their live album a few years ago, but I don't think I've played it in its entirety.

Anyway, I think this earned a second listen. That said, I should like this more than I do. Has a cool sound and vibe. But there's something about Miles Kennedy that I can't put my finger on. I really don't warm up to his voice for some reason.

Fall Back To Earth is fantastic. Holy shit. Just needs a different singer IMO.

My 2011 re-listen has been a good one (though, there's been quite a few duds that I'm culling from my library).  Here's some of the highlights.  I'm just finishing up the Rs right now, listening to Time Machine 2011):

I think this is a good album (but I love Miles Kennedy), however it isn't anything special. Personally, I feel World on Fire is by far the best solo Slash album. All the rest have some good songs but overall aren't that strong.

Listened to Judas Priest’s Firepower today. Damn, that’s a good album. I think it may have now won my album of 2018 after the fact. Although, Tremonti’s A Dying Machine is still such a strong album.

Katatonia - Mnemosynean. I knew this band as a death metal band back in the day and avoided them like the plague. This is something else entirely. I loved it.

Exactly my opinion, World on Fire is AMAZING from start to finish!
If you are interested to see the whole new album played live, in studio:

Firepower was one of the biggest musical surprises of the last few years (quality-wise, not style-wise, of course). Such a quality album. For some reason, JP sound truly rejuvenated on it, and I didn't expect they had such a strong collection of songs still in them.

The live shows from 2008 with Doug Aldrich from the Whitesnake Unzipped box set.   My GOD can that man sing.  His voice is VELVET.  (He's funny too; the CD has just the music, the DVD has the between-song banter and he's hilarious).  I can't imagine going through life with that much charisma.

Coverdale.  Aldrich is good, but I preferred the shows with Adrian Vandenberg, though I'm not sure I could articulate why.
