I bought this album a looooong time ago called Unstoppable Force by Agent Steel.
The guitar licks were good, and the vocalist was incredible. I know they have
3 or 4 albums out. But... the inside cover was completely black...I *hate*
that. No info...no lyrics...didn't even say who the members were....*sigh*

So...

Can anyone tell me who the members of Agent Steel weere (I heard they broke up

Forgive those of us out here in the boondocks of Buffalo (NOT!:), but what's
this about Dave Lombardo leaving Slayer?  I'd like some *concrete* material to
back this up, because I've seen/heard all of the
"Kerry-King-joins-Megadeth-or-maybe-it's-Pantera"-type rumors before.

Also, is this the European Monsters of Rock or the American MoR?  If it's here
in the good ol' U. S. of A, does anyone have any tour dates?  I saw Slayer at
the Clash of the Titans show at Darien Lake, NY, and though they said after the
show they would never come back here (assholes in the audience throwing plastic
drink bottles up on stage; Anthrax had to stop their set on more than one 
occasion to try and stop the assholes), I wouldn't mind going to see them
somewhere close by (did someone say, "Toronto"?).

So, what's the lineup, folks?

  This is such a load of shit I can't believe it. This is their bread and
butter (their lives!) so they should be putting in 100% and then some on
every song. Segovia was 97 years old and still playing shit 10 times more
strenuous on your wrists! Any jazz or classical player would teach you a

shitty uninteresting slow ballads! The worse thing you can do as an artist

difficult to get it back and you will lose interest.

Excuse me!?!  What does this mean?  He puts a lot of energy and emotion
into his playing yet he is not good?  Hmmmm...  doesn't make any sense 
to me.  As far as I'm concerned any musician who plays with energy and
emotion is definitely "good".  And Cliff was definitely GOOD if not one

A while back i was watching a show on what i think was a community t.v.
station , when they started doing an interview of a musician who made
his own instrument. It was like an electric violin with a shoulder    
harrness attached to it ? Anyway from the sound of his music it reminded
me of an Yngwie/Blackmore/whoeveryourfavoriteguitarist classical metal
type stuff.
I could not believe my eyes (or ears) how fast this guy could pick(oops
i mean uuhh... stroke or i mean uuhh.. drag well whatever you do to a
violin ) amazing , really fu**ing fast . 
But what i'm asking is , has anyone heard of or seen this fellow . I
think his last name is Wood or something close to that . ( I was so 
amazed that i couldn't get my jaw off the floor to get a pencil to 
write his name down )                  
from what i remember from the interview he was kicked out of Juliard 
(sp?) for being to wild.

please help , I really want to find his full name or an album title.

Almost correct. But didn't all editions include lyrics sheet ?
From the sheet:

COUNTESS BATHORY (Lant / Dunn / Bray)

Wellcoming the virgin's fair,
to live a noble life
In the castle known to all
The Count's infernal wife

She invites the peasants
with endless lavish foods
But, when evening spreads its wings
She rapes them of their blood

Countess Bathory
Countess Bathory

All day long the virgins sit
Feast on endless meals
The Countess laughs and sips her wine
Her skin both crack and peel

But when nighttime fills the air
One must pay the price
The Countess takes her midnight bath
with blood that once gave life

Countess Bathory
Countess Bathory

(Countess)

Countess Bathory
Countess Bathory

Living in her self-styled hell
the Countess dressed in black
Life so distant, death so near
no blood to turn time back

The castle walls are closing in
She's crippled now with age
Welcomes death with open arms
The Reaper turns the page

Countess Bathory
Countess Bathory

Apparently Scott Columbus (drummer) has left the band for family reasons.
(I think a certain family member is sick)  
This means that only 2 of the original members remain - in what has always
been a consistent line-up.
Needless to say, the new album (if there ever is one) will be delayed.

Just in case anyone got the wrong impression from what I posted, I DON'T
believe in this ridiculous concept that backwards/subliminal messages 
can influence people.  I've read about the research debunking it, too.
Anyway, it would be completely illogical to think a group like Judas Priest 
(or any others for that matter) would put messages to make their fans 
to commit suicide, cause then there would be less people
to buy their records!!!  

I could say much more about this but I think I will try to watch that 
documentary and post more late.

Slayer. Especially the early stuff, Show No Mercy and Hell Awaits. Your
taste sounds pretty similar to mine, so you will probably like these.
You could try Sepultura, but they are a Slayer copy and IMHO boring in
comparison.

The only similarities between Saxon and Maiden are:
	1) quintet
	2) NWOBHM
	3) formed 1976
	4) one of the greatest bands in the history of heavy metal

(last one being my opinion)

They are sort of a cross between Maiden and Leppard, doing subject matter 
within the realms of both bands and sometimes being more tasteful than both.
They do the stereotypical heavy metal "let's rock-n-roll" kind of songs, my
favorite being "And The Bands Played On" (what should be the NWOBHM anthem).
They do mushy songs, slow and fast. Of the fast ones, "Out Of Control" is my
favorite, and for slow ones I can't decide between "Northern Lady" and "I Can't
Wait Anymore." They do those "get up after you've fallen" type songs a lot.
On their DESTINY album they leaned towards a bit of social consciousness, with
"For Whom The Bell Tolls" and "Red Alert." They also do several songs about
alien invasions, including "Lights In The Sky" and "Fire In The Sky" (they
sound nothing like each other at all, despite the similarity in titles).

Any Saxon album is representative of the band (although DESTINY is the only one
I know of with guitar synths). I would suggest WHEELS OF STEEL (1980) mostly
because "747," "Satnd Up And Be Counted," "Suzie Hold On," and "Motorcycle Man"
are such great songs. My first album was ROCK 'N' ROLL GYPSIES, but get that on
CD because it has two extra songs. I hear THE EAGLE HAS LANDED and STRONG ARM
OF THE LAW are their best albums. DENIM & LEATHER is OK, but you would do 
better I think with ROCK THE NATIONS. SOLID BALL OF ROCK was I think much 
better than any of the albums released by their still existing NWOBHM counter-
parts in 1990.

Sorry, my editor cut the rest of your line. You should learn to

But of course I know Tribute and it is indeed one of the best and 
most honest live-album in the metal-sector. Of course the songs 
are pretty good in itself and the performance is absolutely 
great. But in my opinion the studio outtakes of Dee are the 
greatest. You can hear what a perfectionist Randy was. When you

"It's getting smoother now".

I was really hoping Jason would have more input in the songwriting.  He seems
to be the "lost" member of Metallica.  He doesn't write, and you rarely see
him saying anything of importance in interviews...generally leaving it all
to Lars or James.  What gives?  Doesn't he feel like he's part of the band,
