Good grief, Golden Earring have been a band since 1961 and it's still fronted by it's two founder members.   :cool:

The other two current members are johnny come latelys having joined in 1970 and 1967.

"If you can play a guitar and harmonica at the same time, like Bob Dylan or Neil Young, you're a genius. But make that extra bit of effort and strap some cymbals to your knees, suddenly people want to get the hell away from you."  --Rich Hall

Working my way through The Black Crowes back catalogue -  'The Southern Harmony And Musical Companion' - this album has a real nice 'feel' to it.

It's truly history geek metal, I love it. They do a series of history video clips now!  :lol:

I like metal but I could never get into Sabaton. I think it's mostly the vocalist's voice.
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

I love the one about Charles XII coming to power. It really underscores the existential horror of handing a teenage boy absolute power.

For history metal I prefer Ex Deo. Here is their little ditty "Cato Maior: Cartago Delenda Est!" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qHuScUSFaV8

And one about the Battle of Actium: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qcfaltp8CL0
