MTR #4

What are we currently listening to???

Mike - Metallica - “Kill ‘em All” - Motorbreath

“I always dug the main riff. It was one of those first things you learn on guitar for the first time. There’s nothing like wielding the power of Metallica on your fingertips! Recently I was watching Shorts on YouTube and came across Dave Mustaine saying how a good majority of those riffs off of Kill ‘em all and how he contributed a lot of those ideas in the initial Metallica beginnings. It gave me a newfound appreciation for Dave Mustaine. I recommend checking out any of his videos on his guitar playing. Metallica was definitely a big influence on my music development and songwriting, but Rush takes the cake.”

Ron - “Been FINALLY giving my Turnstile ‘Glow On” LP a spin and I regret waiting this long to do so. I’ve heard soooo much about this band and I finally get the hype. This album is currently on heavy rotation. Highly recommend. I really like the hardcore-punk inspired take but with really unique, no-nonsense arrangements that take you in and out of the musical ideas they project.”
