HOLY SHIT! This thread turned CRAZZZZEEY good! I'm going to have to make two posts due to my ADD, as I queue-up some BAD-ASS music!
First on the agenda--METAL, but more important: 𝗣𝗢𝗪𝗘𝗥 𝗠𝗘𝗧𝗔𝗟❗
This is a shout-out to [Login to see the link] -- You brought out the good stuff - Hammerfall and Manowar!

Man, I wore the "𝙂𝙡𝙤𝙧𝙮 𝙩𝙤 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝘽𝙧𝙖𝙫𝙚" and "𝙇𝙚𝙜𝙖𝙘𝙮 𝙤𝙛 𝙆𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙨" albums out!
As for Manowar, their "𝙂𝙤𝙙𝙨 𝙤𝙛 𝙒𝙖𝙧" album from 2007 is their BEST-OMG-THIS-FUCKING-ROCKS album!

As a former AD&D player (1979-1987) and former member of the Society of Creative Anachronisms (1986-1988), this song is THE SONG to make you want to go screaming into battle!
I have the mother-load of great Power Metal. One of the best singers is Tobias Sammet (Edguy, Avanatasia). I'll never forget reading a review of his singing about 20 years ago, where the critic said, "If Tobias Sammet recorded himself farting on the shitter, I'd buy it!"
𝗙𝗨𝗡 𝗙𝗔𝗖𝗧: Before I became a cripple, I taught Yuen Kay San Wing Chun Kung Fu (more violent version than Ip Man-style), Lethwei (Burmese kickboxing--more violent than Muay Thai), and cage-fighting over about a 15 year span. Most dojos/kwoons/traditional martial arts studios are dour damn places. Not at my house! I almost always had Power Metal playing in the background....you kinda needed it: I taught real-world combat before cage-fighting in my garage and outside--rain, snow or shine! 😸
