DCGNR Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Just recently got a hold of a few tunes and am really impressed. Sounds like Lynard Skynard meets Metallica or something Any fans here - I see they've got a few albums out there - any recommendations on which to start with?Thanks a lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceman24 Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 I own the best of album and a Promo Single to the song "Concrete Jungle".I like them. The songs "Crazy Or High", "Sold My Sould" and "Demise Of Sanity" are fuckin' ace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaddisonmoore Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 i have mafia i dont listen to it much but the guitar work is insane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunkyMonk Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Love them. Zakk fucking kicks ass all over the place. Get 1919 Eternal or Blessed Hellride . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F*ck Fear Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 BLS are fucking killer.Start with The Blessed Hellride, and go backwards with Stronger Than Death, 1919 Eternal and Sonic Brew. Hangover Music is also a good acoustic album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moreblack Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 And if you're really in a Zakk mood, check out his other band Pride & Glory, and his solo album Book Of Shadows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDRM Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Best beginner album? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Axl Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Best beginner album?IMO: Mafia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Boy Sixxx Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 personally i think GNR should have nodded this way to progress. i dont mean copy but some inspiration at least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F*ck Fear Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Best beginner album?IMO: MafiaMafia is an ok album, but many of the songs have similar riffs. The Blessed Hellride on the other hand, is a fucking solid album, that can be heard start to finish.I'd go with Hellride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoon87 Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 I really want to hear Hangover Music, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. Seems good to hang out and just relax to it from what I've read... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems good to hang out and just relax to it from what I've read...It's a great album for hanging out, and just listening to.I think Zakk said something on the lines of, Hellride being made for having a party, and getting all fucked up, but when your hung over the next day, it's the album to listen to. He also compared it to GN'R Lies, as it was a collection of songs he put together, so the fans would have something to listen to as he made his next studio album.

New Rose Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 Sounds like Lynard Skynard meets Metallica or somethingYou should try Corrosion of Conformity if you wanna hear something like that.I like BLS, but not as much as I used to. Zakk's solos bore the shit out of me, a couple of bends to start with, ultimate shredding, bend and a harmonic. Pretty much every solo is like that. The songs aren't that complex either, the build starts to bore you.Hangover is my favorite record and 1919 Eternal after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axl_morris Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 Never heard them but they're playing with Ozzy in Wembley next month and im going. Zakks the guitarist in both bands, that's a long show for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zakks the guitarist in both bands, that's a long show for him.He does that quiet often too. Workaholic.BLS are far better live than Ozzy. I can't get into Ozzy live as he uses a backing tape for his vocals nowadays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
