don't look at me like that !

Never heard the Blut Aus Nord album. Sounds interesting. Monotheist is damn good though.

i always thought he was quite a blatant Motley crue fan

In all honesty I have actually never heard a single Motley Crue album. I have heard the songs they play, but never actually have i listened to or bought a single motley crue album. I may be a closet fan and not even know it.... you guys just may be right. However, I do not think I will be crossing that bridge anytime soon and will have to live with the thought I may be a fan and not even know it... . you guys win... I show my white flag and will live with the knowledge you are snickering at me... but at least I know why now.

However, I will admit I think Dr. Feelgood is a pretty kick ass song. 80's cheese is much better in hindsight than it ever was when it was released. Like Europe and "The Final Countdown"... I can just laugh at it now.

They were easily the best out of a bad bunch of hair metal bands. Too Fast For Love is sleazy sounding garbage-therefore a good listen:) But they reached their creative heights with the Dr.Feelgood album and I have to say its a very good album, easily the best album along with Slave to the Grind by Skid Row, to ever be put out by a hair metal act.

Alright on further reflection I have to give it to Blut Aus Nord. This album takes the generic "Evilness" of black metal and twists it into something genuinely disturbing. When I listen to this album I get a feeling of low grade paranoia and anxiety that can be quite unsettling over time. If you're a bit of a misanthropic nihilist, this is pretty much required listening. Not to mention, I think the album is worth the price of admission just for "Inner Mental Cage" alone.

Blut Aus Nord - 1
Celtic Frost - 0

Listened to the Blut Aus Nord album and agree about its nihilistic feel and ambience. I read that its known as a third wave of black metal abum, considering my knowledge of black metal at the moment is limited, I had no other black metal acts save Burzum etc. to really make a good comparison with. All that aside, its probably a better album than the Celtic Frost one due to its unique feel, but its largely an instrumental which is something I normally don`t really dig. For nostalgia I`m still going with Celtic Frost here and my prefence for their overall sound.
