I’m feeling like we need more ’80’s hair metal here on Monday Metal so I’m giving you Poison by Alice Cooper:

Monday Metal: Wooden Pints by Korpiklaani
It should be well known to regular readers at this point that I’m a huge fan of folk metal. As I write this I’m drinking a beer and listening to Korpiklaani so this week’s Monday Metal is the song I’m currently listening to, Wooden Pints:
Monday Metal: Silicon Messiah by Blaze
After the departure of Bruce Dickinson from Iron Maiden the band hired Blaze Bayley as their new vocalist. He only recorded two albums with the band after which he had to depart and Bruce returned to his previous position. I wasn’t the biggest fan of the The X Factor, the first album put out by Iron Maiden after Blaze Bayley join, but their second, Virtual XI, is one of my favorites. Blaze Bayley now fronts his own band named Blaze and does some pretty amazing stuff. Blaze’s first album was Silicon Messiah and this is the title track from that album:
Monday Metal: The Trooper by Iron Maiden
It’s Monday morning which means it’s time for your weekly dose of metal. This week I’ve chosen one of my favorite songs by my favorite band, The Tooper by Iron Maiden. I’ll let the song speak for itself:
The Most Metal Beer Ever
Amon Amarth have come out with their own beer. It’s called Ragnarok and is an imperial porter. Why do I bring this up? Because when I’m not bitching about the government, shooting guns, or writing code I’m head banging to death metal and being a pretentious beer snob. Imperial porters/stouts are my favorite type of beer so combining one of my favorite bands with my favorite styles of beer is nothing but pure fucking awesome.
This is getting ordered.
Heavy Metal Fun Time Activity Book
Do you have kids? Are you trying to introduce them to the metal lifestyle? If so the Heavy Metal Fun Time Activity Book may be what you’re looking for.
I do think the coloring exercises will be a bit difficult when the only crayons in your child’s box are black though.
Monday Metal: Phantom of the Opera by Nightwish
It’s Monday morning which means it’s time for your weekly dose of metal. This week we’re venturing back into the realm of operatic metal with Phantom of the Opera by Nightwish:
Monday Metal: Band You Head (Metal Health) by Quiet Riot
I’m in a hair metal mood right now so that’s what you guys are getting for this week’s installment of Monday Metal. Today’s song is a classic from the ’80’s (the album this song debuted on was released in the same year I was born which is pretty awesome) which you’ve likely heard before. It back, relax, and bang your head:
Monday Metal: Orion by Metallica
Before they turned into complete talentless assholes (I’m sorry their last two albums sucked indescribably amounts of ass) Metallica was an amazing band. Even though they started suing their fan base after promoting music piracy through the copying of their cassettes (that’s how they became big actually) I won’t hold that against their old music. One of my favorite things about Metallica’s earlier stuff was their use of the guitar, I just flat out enjoy it. Thus I’m brining you a little lesser known song of theirs titled Orion. It’s entirely instrumental and awesome so sit back, relax, and listen to some amazing music.
