Bands you got into way too late

Triumph - folks that gush over Kiss - Alive II or Priest - Unleashed in the East should really give Triumph Live at the US Festival a listen; huge sound, great performance.

Styx - I knew a few hits for years, but once I heard Miss America on the radio a few years ago, I did a deep dive.

Demon - the NWoBHM band. Their song "Night of the Demon" just has such awesome vocals. I've been a big NWoBHM fan since my teenage years, but somehow I missed this one until decades later.

King Diamond (solo) - Even though I've been playing along with Melissa and DBTO since I was 16 or so, it took a good 15 years before I 'discovered' Abigail, Fatal Portrait, etc. Saw him live this June (and in 2016 on GMM in Belgium). Both top notch shows and sound.

Oasis. Hated hated hated them when they came out. But I was streaming some videos a few years back and YouTube autoplayed Don’t Look Back in Anger at River Plate live.

The WHOLE f’n crowd sang the whole song. I’m sure that was a crazy experience. I like a few songs now because of seeing that.

Also, Weezer.

There's one Oasis song where it sounds like they use a Univibe with the distorted guitar. I think it's called "Do Ya Know What I Mean?" I thought that song was interesting. Most of their other songs were just too overplayed on the radio for me.

Weezer? I liked their first two albums a lot. I was super disappointed with the Green Album and have never found interest in them since that turd was released.

Maladroit is a fantastic album. I suggest checking it out if you like big guitars, hooks and repeated bangers.

I was going to say that.

I gotta say Blast Tyrant and Robot Hive/Exodus are my two favorites of their entire catalog. There was something in the water on those two. Blast Tyrant is loaded start to finish with ass kicking hard rock songs, and Robot Hive/Exodus is a trippier more diverse album while still loaded with total bangers.

Agreed

Led Zeppelin
Doors
Jimi Hendrix
Rush
Pantera

The first four are the music of my early youth, and I got Cowboys From Hell right when it came out.
