    Default "Let's Rock..." Part XXI H&H Game

    Let me tell you now, about a friend of mine. He tried to shoot them lights, with whiskey and the wine. He didn't get so far, ah his gun was wrong. Now my sweet friend, where's your song? Shoot out the lights, shoot out the lights.

    So, with that said, let's get the thread started with the rules of the game:

    - We start off with twenty bands, each having twenty points. All forms of ROCK/METAL go head to head (be it Grunge, Thrash/Speed Metal, what have you.)

    - The point of the game is to drain points from specific bands, while healing your own. For each one point that you heal a band, you remove two points from another. Example: +1 Metallica, -2 Children Of Bodom. The last one standing is the winner.

    - You may not make more than one consecutive post; IE: you must first wait for another person to post before you make yours. Also, one post per day, per poster.

    - You can vote for a band you haven't heard, or have heard very little of, on the premise of protecting a band you enjoy.

    - Black Sabbath(Or Heaven And Hell) is OMITTED due to the fact that we're on a Black Sabbath site, and we don't want votes to get one sided. Also those already entered in the Hall Of Fame are now OMITTED as well because they already won their respective games.

    - If a player decides to cheat by voting on another account with the same Email and IP Address, the player will be BANNED from the game and the board.


    One person can nominate one band. Once we get twenty bands, the game will begin. You all know the drill.

    Rainbow are already in the Hall of Fame, so you'll need to pick another one (see the images at the start of the thread for the acts already there)

    There's some more nonmetal for ya, RP. I'll post some links later, but Gov't Mule are an Allman Brothers Band spinoff band I think surpasses the original. They're definitely southern rock, but have tons of other genres thrown in, including some early hard rock/heavy metal. One of my favorites.

    Ron I'm gonna take out Dokken, not because I dislike them, but because it's too early to call in second nominations.

    Let me tell you now, about a friend of mine. He tried to shoot them lights, with whiskey and the wine. He didn't get so far, ah his gun was wrong. Now my sweet friend, where's your song? Shoot out the lights, shoot out the lights.

    Here's 'Heathondom' by Memento Mori, a great epic that maintains interest throughout:

    And here's 'Sixteen Tonnes', a cover that shows Memento Mori got the best out of Messiah Marcolin - you can hear him having fun:



    That's my attempt at an advert Hope someone at least checks 'em out, if you've not heard MM before you may be pleasantly surprised. Or not

    There are a few images in the video, at least one of which is indeed the one used for Blood Fire Death.

    Great to hear you already know this brilliant band! They kinda slipped under the radar back in the day, which is a big shame - as you say, Messiah was really at his peak here, and it's some of Mike Wead's best stuff too

    Got the 4 Albums on CD .
    The 2 first are fantastic ; the Wead/Marcollin/Shaw association could only create premium stuff

    The cover of " Lost Horizon " on " Rhymes of Lunacy" is just perfect . Michael Schenker is the Wead 's Idol . We could hear that easily
    very underrated Band ...
    good challenge with Celtic Frost

    I've got the 4 too, I love them all, even the non-Messiah one. Totally agree about 'Lost Horizons', it's a perfect cover - I was listening to that very song when I thought of nominating them for this round.

    I love Celtic Frost too, everything up to Into The Pandemonium is pure brilliance, totally essential! I do love Monster Magnet too, so there's plenty for me in this round

    8Bit, it might be worth allowing second nominations in now, I think most of the regulars have nominated, any who haven't probably don't intend to.

    I'm not intending to nominate a second, but I am eager to get the game going.

    We'll wait for your blessing though.

    Let me tell you now, about a friend of mine. He tried to shoot them lights, with whiskey and the wine. He didn't get so far, ah his gun was wrong. Now my sweet friend, where's your song? Shoot out the lights, shoot out the lights.
