I think W.A.S.P. could very well be the most consistently good metal band ever, behind only Motorhead.

Can't think of a tenth...then again, I tend to listen to a few bands for long periods of time before even getting into new ones, so meh.

I programmed keyboards/Drums for this band! So I got to go with this Remember Us Alive.

It's great they finally found a Keyboardist and a Drummer so I dont have to help these guys out anymore.
