I am following ’s initiative and having a #metalweekend. Of course, every day is a heavy metal day but on weekends we have that extra chance to annoy our neighbors.
Here’s a choice of metal songs. New songs, old songs, songs that I hear and love.
So, here we go. Bang your heads.
And since I recently visited Berlin the theme for this week will be German bands.
Diamantis Picks of the Week
Accept – Midnight Mover
One of the first and best German heavy metal bands. Their sound defined the 80s and their albums is a must listen for every fan. Track comes from 1985 album “Metal Heart”. Funny story. I was able to see them live with the original line back in 1996. I was waiting for the show to start and suddenly the singer Udo passed in front of me. And I thought to myself. This dude is way shorter than me. And I am no way tall. Anyway , that was a fun memory. And that show was great.

Kreator – Death Becomes my Light
When you think the top3 thrash metal bands, Kreator will always be one of them. From 1982 this is what they do and they are one of the best. Track comes from their latest release “Gods of Violence” (2017). Don’t let acoustic guitar intro fool. This is a thrash holocaust.
Helloween - Power
After a lot of drama and animosity between members vocalist extraordinaire Michael Kiske left the band and was replaced by Andy Derris. Derris is not at the same level , very few people are , but he gave the band stability and peace. Track comes from the second album with Derris “Time of the Oath” (1996). Cash … eeehhhh I mean time heals and now band tours with original members.
These are my picks for this week .
Listen to music , listen to HEAVY METAL !
Play loud and STEEM ON !!!
