One, I can’t believe this song is from 1974. Two, I’m pretty convinced Queen could’ve made a hit record in whatever genre they wanted. Here it is, Stone Cold Crazy, a 37 year-old speed metal song that stands the test of time.
Have some 3 Inches of Blood. A band so awesome even my scenester friends in college dug them.
It’s difficult to figure out where different bands fit within the Metal pantheon, but this Map of Metal is pretty legit. It’s also awesome to learn about metal on a giant map that looks like the back of a denim jacket. Or that Stone Cold Crazy is a Queen song. I bet that makes me sound uneducated.
