Visigoth - Warrior Queen

Category 4, time to see what's got played during the "Hardrock Evening" that when off at the Twelfth Night, 5th of January.

1. A Band That Should Have Been Bigger:
2. Highfaluting:
3. Best Right Now:
4. Twin Guitars:
5. Best Textstrophe:
6. It Swings:
7. Afterparty:
8. Bonus:

"Twin Guitars", a pretty fun category to pick tunes from, there are many great tunes that suit into this one, as my view on "Twin Guitars" is that two guitar players play the same line at the same time, correct?

My first idea was to pick something odd but classic, but after a few spins of a few great tunes my vote ended with a typical Twin Guitar tune, thinking of IRON MAIDENs "Hallowed Be Thy Name".

Here is the lineup for Category 4

CURRENTS "Forever Marked" - Eriksdotter (Intressting tune from a band that I think I heard once)
OVÁTE "Morgonstjerne" - Sandström (Nice one)
SHORES OF NULL "Tide Against Us" - Chief Rebel (Another new one from Chief, sounds great)
SLAYER "Cronics" - Holm (Heavy piece)
CANDLEMASS "At The Gallows End" - M Öbrink (More Swedish doom, cool choice)
VISIGOTH "Warrior Queen" - Hellan (Heavy metal)
CANDLEMASS "Flowers Of Deception" - P Öbrink (Another one, cool choice)
HELLOWEEN "Pumpkins United"- Jens (A classic Twin Guitar band)
IRON MAIDEN "Hallowed Be Thy Name"- Stones

For today we pick Hellans choice, "Twin Guitars" from the Salt Lake City metal band VISIGOTH and the tune "Warrior Queen" taken from "Conqueror's Oath", released 09 February 2018, enjoy!

Helloween - I'm Alive

Category Four: 

(Nostalgia) is up for today, taken from the annual hard rock evening.

This was a pretty tricky category, hey Nostalgia, could be actually anything good from the history bank of your own life cycle. So I needed to think through this for a while, it took some time to set it. After a spin thru the record collection I found "Renegade" with THIN LIZZY witch struck me that this was actually the first record I bought with the band, I think it was around 84' or 85 when I found it in a sales bin at the Domus up in northern Sweden. Somehow the cover hooked me, the red flag and the band name THIN LIZZY with the album title "Renegade", cool cover and when I played the album I got in love with the band totally. "Renegade" is perhaps their most underrated and misunderstood album. Just listen to my choice of tune "Angel Of Death" and you will understand.

This category had a pretty mixed up line up as you can see below what the other had picked for this.

Other tunes that was played.

CANDLEMASS "Dark Reflections" - Cheif Rebel (Great Choice)

SODOM "Wachturm" - Holm (Unexpectedly)

HEATHEN "Open The Grave" - PÖbrink (Classic)

THERAPY "Screamager" - Hellan (Cool tune)

ALICE IN CHAINS "We Die Young" - MÖbrink (Another Classic)

BLACK STONE CHERRY "War" - Eriksdotter (Great Cover)

SEPULTURA "Desperate Cries
" - Sandström (Classic)

SLAYER "Necrophobic" - Sköldan (Classic)

HELLOWEEN "I'm Alive
" - Jens (Classic)

THIN LIZZY "Angel Of Death" - Stones

(Missing songs from two participants).

Today's tune "I'm Alive" by German power metal band HELLOWEEN, is taken from the second studio album "The Keeper of the Seven Keys: Part I", released in 1987.

AC/DC - Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap

Category four: 

(Evil is good, but witch record is the meanest of them all?) 

 is up for today, taken from the annual hard rock evening.

This was a pretty tricky category, the definition was pretty mixed as you can see on the tunes that got selected. I went on pure Evil, where a record is so mean that you almost gets scared when you put it down for a spin. My choice was "As I Ascend" with the Swedish Black Metal band DARK FUNERAL.

Other tunes that was played.

MORBID ANGEL - Welcome to Hell
DARK FUNERAL - As I Ascend
AC/DC - Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap
DEATH ANGEL - Voracious Souls
BLACK SABBATH - Sweet Leaf
VOLTURYON - Pile of Human
SLIPKNOT - Disasterpiece
LAKEI - Despot

(Missing songs from two participants).

Today's tune "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" is a song by Australian hard rock band AC/DC. It is the title track and first track of their album Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap, released in September 1976, and was written by Angus Young, Malcolm Young, and Bon Scott. This was Sköldans choice, can't really remember what his story was comparing the the category, be it's a freaking good tune.
