Livin' For Tonite



Just whipped this up for a friend of mine. Various flavors of metal (including false, power, death, speed and meta-metals), indiscriminately assembled for maximum bludgeon. It's great for working out!


accept - living for tonight
maltese falcon - metal rush
destruction - reject emotions
mercyful fate - doomed by the living dead
heathen - open the grave
death - born dead
nuclear assault - technology
voivod - helldriver
tony macalpine - wheel of fortune
crimson glory - eternal world
thrust - posers will die
savatage - washed out
hallow's eve - metal merchants
zno white - turn up the pain
champs - thor is like immortal
saxon - eagle has landed

(Eastern Recording Co., 1662 7th. St.) Where Could I Go

So one of these doesn’t really belong (can you guess which?), but it's lyric inspired our title, and it's awesome and pretty unknown too. Many of the 45s were purchased recently, other tracks have been long time favorites. All apologies for the condition of the instant-cut disc that opens and closes (go find me a cleaner one, haha). In my eagerness to share new finds, this is more thrown-together than the usual fare, but at least the narrative is a little more clearly stated. As always, hope you enjoy (and please let me know if you do!).
