Fight - War of Words



While I was in high school, Toni, a friend of mine, handed me a cassette with loads of tracks from different bands which I had the chance to discover from that tape: Iron Maiden, Anthrax, Mötley Crüe, and many more.

One of them was Fight, with two tracks: "Nailed to the Gun" and "War of Words", from their album of the same name, "War of Words". Just a couple of weeks ago, I searched for those tracks in Grooveshark, and looking for some more info in the net, found out that:

"Fight was an American heavy metal band assembled by Judas Priest frontman, Rob Halford, after his departure from that band in 1992. He took with him from Judas Priest and Racer X drummer Scott Travis, though Travis also continued to drum for Judas Priest. The line-up was completed by Russ Parrish on guitar, Brian Tilse on guitar and keyboards and Jack "Jay Jay" Brown on bass guitar." - taken from Wikipedia.

No wonder why I liked the singer`s voice so much, hehehe. Check out the album: War of Words

Anthrax - Worship Music

I wanted to write this post earlier, but never made the effort to do it. It is quite important for me because, being a great thrash metal fan since the beginning of my musical taste development, is strange that I never got into one of the undeniable Big 4 from the birth of thrash metal Anthrax!! Also, couple of months ago, I went out with my wife and some friends and they liked the music a lot when I asked the DJ a track from their latest album at full blast!!!

But I found their video from the track "The Devil That You Know", from their latest album "Worship Music", and the sound was fresh, strong and vigorous!! So, obviously, I wanted to listen the rest of the songs.

The tracklist is as follows:
1. Worship - 1:41 
2. Earth on Hell - 3:11 
3. The Devil You Know - 4:46 
4. Fight 'Em 'Till You Can't - 5:48 
5. I'm Alive - 5:37 
6. Hymn 1 - 0:38 
7. In The End - 6:46 
8. The Giant - 3:47 
9. Hymn 2 - 0:44 
10. Judas Priest - 6:24 
11. Crawl - 5:29 
12. The Constant - 5:21 
13. Revolution Screams - 5:01

Check out their video, wicked!!!

Ewan Dobson

Hi there!!! Well, I haven't touched the guitar for ages now. I really don't have any excuse, but would like to say that I am up to other things right now. If I would like to start the workout, would have to do it from scratch... once again :( That doesn't mean I don't like the guitar anymore, no way!!!!

As I usually do, I want to put this video, which I find amazing, to keep the inspiration flowing. It's from guitarist Ewan Dobson, master of classical and acoustic guitar, which I got from my little brother ;) Hope you all enjoy:

 

Take care!!!
