Awesome update Darcy. Glad you picked up those classic Grave Digger cds. Fantastic band. Can't wait for your ranking video. This one is definitely going to be tough. They will be releasing a new album next January. First single is fantastic. I just picked up Welcome to the other side and now my Rage collection is complete. Cheers brother 🍻.
Darcy, thank you for showing vinyl, CD, and cassette! I also collect all three formats. How do you decide what format to get for what? Also I was just at the Testament, Kreator show here in Bethlehem PA. Thanks Dave
Hi Darcy!!! another awesome CD update all great stuff, nothing to complain about and yes that "new" Ratt is so cool. Rage and Grave Digger are two bands i really need to get into, right now i only have "War Games" on vinyl and that would be it...... so watching rankings/lists is very helpful when the band has a big discography. That's a pretty cool Jerry Cantrell packaging and released on his own record label, that's awesome. MOV always does a great job, you hardly hear any bad comments about their reissues..... cheers and be well
@@metalmartymac Hell yeah brother, love Practice What You Preach. That cassette lived in my ‘89 Dodge Dakota for a full year ha ha. Hope we get some news on those Annihilator reissues soon, I’m growing impatient 😂 Cheers Triple M
Great update Darcy! The Grave Digger is an excellent album as is the Inner Sanctum by Saxon Don't have too many Rage albums maybe 10 I believe. R.I.P. Paul Di'anno.
Yes, R.I.P. Paul Dianno. Still waiting on the vinyl to arrive. I just got the cd yesterday of the new Flots. That Victory is awesome I picked up the vinyl. Anything Herman Frank you get killer stuff, so underrated. Grave Digger always good stuff, I picked up all those when they first came out. Good to see you picking those up. Rage are hit or miss for me. I remember when all those Saxon from 2000 on came out on vinyl. Nice update.
I’m with you on Herman Frank, love anything he’s involved in. Hope he does a second Iron Allies album with David Reece. Hey Kevin, do you know if Digger Strong Than Ever was ever released on CD? I need track down a copy. Really enjoying your weekly 6 pack episodes 🤘 Cheers from just across the border :))
My last few vinyl buys new and used Feanor - boundless I am free & power of the chosen one Cloven hoof - heathen cross Chris boltendahl's steelhammer Burning witches - dance with the devil & witch of the north Accept - stalingrad & rise of chaos Roadwolf - unchain the night Pounder - thunderforged
I have that Chris Boltendahl’s Steelhammer in my Amazon cart right now, might as well pull that trigger ha ha. Some great pick ups you got there 🤘 Cheers Matt
Nice update mate 🤘I have a couple of early Grabe Digger albums but I will be checking out the albums that you showed on my next long drive for work to see if I get on with them, after that I’ll need to check out all those Rage albums I don’t know
Those Rage albums I showed are pretty damn good, but for me, nothing beats the 5 album run from Perfect Man to The Missing Link. Try some 90s Grave Digger, the 5 albums from 1993 to 1999 are awesome! Cheers to long drives & a shit load of Metal 🤘
I have picked up 53 new releases this year and another handful to come. I mainly focus on new albums these days. It does make it tough doing a top end of year list though. I need to invest some time and give Grave Digger more of a listen as they are playing at Wacken next year. I want to pick up the new Flotsam on vinyl but for some reason it is more pricey over here compared to other new releases. I have preordered Practice What You Preach myself and looking forward to own it on vinyl. Great update mate😃🤘
53?? Holy ass gasket Batman 😂 That’s unreal! that would be a year end list that I couldn’t deal with. Hope you find that Flotz album for a good price. Thanks as always 🤘 Cheers brother
Yes I'd like to see an update on your Maiden ranking. I know nothing about any of this stuff. I have the Rage ones but I don't know them at all. I got them at the tail end of a big Rage kick but they are there for next time I suppose.
Great video, Darcy! "The Inner Sanctum" is actually my favorite Saxon album, so I was psyched to see it in your video! Also, the new EP from the crushing thrashers, Enforced, is one you gotta check out if you haven't already. Rock on!
Hi Darcy. I don't have much this year either, but 2025 will be challenging again. I have concluded this year and my record of the year is clearly Saxon. Perhaps Accuser can still surprise this year. Grave Digger and Rage I have a set, super bands as well as Victory and other Herman Frank bands.
Amazing time as a metalfan when Iron Maiden brought out their first albums with Paul. May he rest in peace. New for me now the new DGM italian progressive metal, the live in London Skid Row album. I am excited about the new Dream Theater song Night Terror it’s quite heavy. Rock on!
Yeah definitely trying to make smarter choices over the past 3 years. I hope you do check out the new Jerry Cantrell, it’s a breath of fresh air. Thanks as always my friend 🤘 Cheers from Planet6Strings
That's some really cool stuff you showed there darcy I'm always in the mood for German metal and this past weekend I bagged my 1st sodom album proper in M-16 and also my 1st Tankard cd Chemical Invasion also it seems somebody handed in a load of annihilator albums which my local record shop has kindly put to one side for me to collect over the coming weeks so a good weekend all round!
Those are both thrashterpieces from Sodom & Tankard, you did good picking those up! Let me know which Annihilator albums you eventually pick up, some of those aren’t easy to get anymore. Thanks as always 🤘 Stay Heavy Robert
@@joerocks7381 I’m glad to hear that, just keeps getting better & better with every listen. Joe Baresi production is top-notch! Thanks for watching 🤘 Cheers from Canada
Flotsam is one of my big four. Nice grabs. That Ratt Reach for thw Sky sounds like it shoulda been on Cellar! Stryper gets better by the year. Almost every band adds "filler" Kiss is the masterbof that lol. Rene is bad ass like yourself! Im a huge fan of the 80s Grave Digger/Digger the most. Those German bands are always so interchangeable. Who gets gets sick of Saxon??? 😂🍺🤘
F#%k dude I can’t get enough of Reach For The Sky, hearing Stephen’s voice kick in along with Warren & Robbin’s dual harmonies, just amazing! Puts me right back to ‘84, cruising on a Saturday night with my friends in my moms ‘77 Monte Carlo lol. Flotz is definitely in my North America Big 4, don’t even have to think about that one! Hope you doing well brother, I see your teams are killing it 🏈 Sending only love from Planet6Strings 🤘
Great video again can't wait for maiden ranking new ranking. Also your top 10 for 2024 later this year if you're doing one I hope love new flotsam and jetsam cheers
I haven’t heard the new Enforcer ep yet, is it good? Evile is a cd only band for me, I love both formats so I just pick my battles lol. Thanks as always for hanging out with me 🤘 Cheers Marco
Glad you mentioned Enforced! I'm loving the new EP. They're my second-favorite "new wave" thrash band, only behind Angelus Apatrida (although it's neck-in-neck).
You can’t beat 90’s Grave Digger, 1993 to 1999 produced 5 of the finest metal albums you’ll ever hear! Thanks for the kind words, always appreciated 🤘 Stay Heavy ~ Darcy
First and foremost, R.I.P. Paul Di'Anno. A fantastic singer gone too soon. Now that's a great update, Darcy! Good to see you picked up some new releases from Stryper, Flotsam and Jetsam & Jerry Cantrell. Nice to see your Grave Digger collection is growing.
Own "The Grave Digger" and have had "Rheingold" on my want-list forever. I'll probably break down and preorder "Bone Collector" even though "Symbol of Eternity" was kind of a letdown. SAXON! Keep up the good work! RIP Di 'Anno!
Yeah Symbol Of Eternity probably doesn’t even crack the Top 15 in a Grave Digger ranking. I think they are getting back to basics will Bone Collector, first single Kingdom Of Skulls is awesome! Thanks as always my friend 🤘 Cheers from Planet6Strings
Rage is just a top notch band, I discovered them in ‘87 with Execution Guarenteed, I still have a few to add to the collection from their massive discography. Grave Digger I need more of their later ones, I’ll get there 🤣 Saxon, awesome band, I just completed my Saxon collection with these 9 MOV releases, excellent reissue series, we need to get “The Eagle Has Landed II” also, come on MOV, please!!
The Eagle Has Landed II & III would be nice, BMG has the rights to both of them, so that might just happen. Yes I should have mentioned the 3 Rage reissues that are up for pre-order, I’m sure you’ll be after those. Thanks as always brother 🤘
Grave Digger have lots of great albums. Haven't listened to them in a while though. Darcy, did ever pick up those Destruction reissues on HHR? Any thoughts on those? Cheers!
I recently picked up a couple of Rage albums. I've been missing out as I definitely need more. Glad you liked that Jerry Cantrell album. He's easily my favorite musician of all-time. Flawless discography. He just doesn't miss!!! Cheers Darcy!!
@@Mr.Davidian Which Rage albums did you get? Yeah I’m loving the new Jerry Cantrell, so happy we only had to wait 3 years for a new one this time. Thanks as always 🤘 Cheers Mr.D
@darcysixstringsninelives3493 Strings To A Web and Afterlines. Both are good, but I need more time with them. Do they have any albums that are considered essential? ie. Screaming For Vengeance, Number Of The Beast etc.
You really love this german metal stuff. If you want check out the videoclip Railway- Lick it stick it here on youtube. Mid eighties german metal. Sounds a lot like Accept mixed with Ratt. The best guitar sound I have ever heard in my life. Do you know the fantastic Steeler album Strike back and Faithful Breath- Gold'n glory? For my ears the new Stryper album goes a few steps back to the more melodic style. I like it. Saw Victory a few weeks ago and the singer is so good. Sounds like Fernando Garcia. They played many Garcia songs. There are so many Grave Digger albums. The reaper, Witchhunter and Heart of darkness are my favourites.
Lots of stuff there I've always heard about, like Rage, but never listened to. The only Flotsam I really got into was No Place For Disgrace, which was fantastic, but I never followed them after that. But they seem like a good band to be into, because of what I know they really mixed up their sound a lot album to album, which I like. I hear you about taking a break from metal. That's kind of where my head is at. I have so much metal that I want to explore other stuff. More classical music. More 60-70s hard rock. More Punk. I've always been a fan of Punk. I have been listening to a lot of Killing Joke lately. I love Killing Joke. Started getting some Wardruna, because I like that. I just got Apocalyptica -Plays Metallica Volume 2.
Absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to dial it back a bit, doesn’t always need to be the heavy shit 24/7. You need to listen to what keeps you interested & happy. If you do decide to check out some Rage, check out a couple of my personal favourite albums, Perfect Man & Secrets In A Weird World. Thanks as always for checking in on me, much appreciated 🤘 Take care Greg
Buen disco de Saxon no sé si incluyeron la versión de I've got to rock Still Alive con Lemmy Angry y Andi Deris temazo 🤘 y muy bueno el combo de Metal Teutón 👍🤘💪🇺🇾
I´m not the biggest Grave Digger fan and it´s not even Chris´ vocals. In fact I only have their first two albums left, I just never listen to anything else by the band. The other side of the extreme is Rage, I follow them since 1987s "Execution Guaranteed". I just never cared for their symphonic stuff but looking back at those records they´re actually pretty good! I think I have only bought one 2024 release so far and that´s the new Flotsam.... Do you think Nuclear Blast will do the same with "Practice..."? Reissue it and six weeks later announce a remastered special edition?
I wouldn’t be surprised if Nuclear Blast did release a remastered Practice. I love the original, but I actually wouldn’t mind hearing it with a little more bottom end. Yeah it’s lots of fun getting to know the full Rage discography, 2 to 3 at a time is all I can handle! I hate when one album blends into the next and you can’t remember shit, especially at my age 😂 Cheers brother
Great stuff that you're as big a nut as me concerning German Metal. That Victory album is definitely a grower on me, i just need one more album for the entire Grave Digger catalogue, was going to post about leavign a ranking until after the new album in Jan 2025 is released but you snook it in at the end HaHa!! Great video me ode. take care
Yeah I thought I might as well wait for Bone Collector to come out in January, then we will figure out a Grave Digger ranking. If the first single Kingdom Of Skulls is any indication, this is going to be a great album! Thanks as always for taking the time to hang out with me, it’s always appreciated 🤘 Stay Heavy brother
