An idea for a fun game: Name That Riff!

[Headache]

And it would have to be his bourbon of choice….. Blantons.

At $150 a bottle, I know I couldn't afford to play along.

Same here, but I was never one to drink much hard spirits to begin with, and I rarely drink any beers now.
Maybe once a week I will put away about 8.

My eldest can usually find it in the 80-90 range in middle of nowhere Illinois. He won’t spend a buck 50 either. It comes out only for special occasions…. Like last day of school. He’s a teacher.

I hear that ! Amen for the last day of school!

I'll give y'all some clues to, what it is? #180.

This is the 5th song off their (self titled) Debut album,
The original lead singer passed following complications from a car crash, band members have changed a lot over the years, their second singer committed suicide a few years back in 21.

This bands second album is one of my favorite albums of all time....heck, it may be my Favorite album of all time.
Founded in 1980 in San Francisco then moved to Seattle.
13 studio albums! Currently still touring.

And this band is the reason I play explorers!

The hints did it for me.

Hitman - Metal Church

Those first 2 albums were great but then I lost touch with them.

Here's a sloppily played entry. Most of the hints that @Headache provided actually apply to this song/band as well. I was originally guessing this band from his hints but realized it was of course a different song and band.

All this talk of drinking games. Blantons. Decided maybe I’d enjoy Blantons little brother Buffalo Trace.

Some of @Headache's clues for the Metal Church tune that also apply here:

- This is the 5th song off their debut album,
- The original lead singer passed (from a stroke, not a car crash)
- Founded in 1979 (not1980) in San Francisco (just outside it actually)

I love that tune and that album. That’s Metallica’s cover of The Small Hours.

It's a good one for sure!

Hello 1983!

Metal Church is my favorite heavy metal band and the band that got me into heavy metal in the first place. The first 2 albums are gold!

...and I love Hanging in the Balance, it's probably my favorite MC album front to back.

I had forgotten how good this band really is.

Apologies for the derail, I got mixed up on which thread I was in.

Been there…. Done that!!

Hey, just for the record, Metal Church makes every thread better !

It's short, but the riff goes through the whole song.
