Needles & Grooves AoTM /// Vol. 2 - August 2019 /// Khemmis - Hunted

Any of you metallers ever listen to Red by King Crimson. I’ve been familiar with it for years and always viewed it as a great album but I thought it was 1984, reading the credits today I see it is 1974. A real powerful rocking album.

 

[Murfocakes]

Here’s a hint:

Roy Wood confirmed.

 

[duke86fan]

hmm wizards was a ralph bakshi film

do you think the hint is ralph bakshi or is there gonna be a lot of fantasy elements in it

 

[duke86fan]

bakshi is also the first person to make an NC-17 (or X at the time) animated movie with fritz the cat

 

[Murfocakes]

I see the thrash metal band Toxik has a sample of Wizards on their albums Think This and an American Flag on their album Breaking Class. Maybe this?

 

[supahypeag]

I know one thing: this album is gonna kick some ass, whatever it is

Scratch that. Although the Toxik Think This album has acclaim it seems very hard to get a copy of.

but thats an EP so i dunno

 

[Murfocakes]

I think Sleep’s Holy Mountain looks likely. It has red, white and blue. A track called Some Grass, another called The Druid. I’m pretty lost mind you.

read sinner read

I know. I was thinking more Breaking Class but it doesn’t appear to have had a vinyl release. That cover though...

Pre 1994.

 

[Murfocakes]

I actually hope it’S your guess @duke86fan as i’ve Been looking to pick up Like Clockwork for a while. I can’t find a link between Wizards and it. Unless you count that Wizards has a character named Fritz, Like Clockwork by Philip Pullman.




King of Wishful Thinking here.



Btw - the backwards masking at the start of the Go West track could also be satanic messages. The circle is complete. With a pentagram drawn inside it.

Any chance we've misinterpreted the Grand Funk clue and this clue points toward Electric Wizard?

 

[gaporter]

Did Bakshi ever direct any music videos for a metal band (kinda like how Todd McFarlane did those Korn and Pearl Jam videos)?

 

[gaporter]

It's Filth Pig by Ministry.

 

[gaporter]

It's Filth Pig by Ministry.

My reasoning is that Ministry are American, Filth Pig's album cover has the American flag on it (red, white & blue), and Ministry had a song on the soundtrack to Bakshi's film Cool World. I'm struggling to make the "acclaim" bit match up, but it was apparently the band's highest charting album in the US.

Not sure how "legal cannabis" fits in either.

 

[High Rant District]

Based on the clues so far, I'm going with Stoner Witch by the Melvins.

 

[Goatfish]

No. It’s an American band

 

[supahypeag]

No. It’s an American band

I won’t guess Demons and Wizards then...

 

[johnpisme]

the problem is they are a british band and i dont think the color choice would work

Fuck I suck at this. I want a reason to buy it again though!
