Alright. Metal Odyssey hasn’t done a list in quite some time. What better time for a list, than on the very melancholy Friday the 13th? WARNING: This list contains LOTS of… METAL. This list has a theme and it’s not difficult to figure out; unless you’re an ABBA fan, that is.
MEGADETH – THIRTEEN
WEDNESDAY 13 – SPOOK & DESTROY
ANVIL – THIS IS THIRTEEN
THIRTEEN BLED PROMISES – HELIOPAUSE FLEETS
OVERKILL – KILLBOX 13
BLACK SABBATH – 13
WEDNESDAY 13 – CALLING ALL CORPSES
13 CANDLES – HAPPY DEATH DAY (Demo)
13 WINTERS – DARK PALACE OF WATERFALLS

Feel free to add your 13 cents to this list with a comment! Thankyou for spending some quality METAL time, on this Friday the 13th, with Metal Odyssey.
Emerging from their self-imposed solitude, atmospheric Black Metal entity LASTER will travel from their Dutch homeland to Germany later this year for their first ever live performance.
Scheduled for Saturday, December 21st, LASTER’s live debut will take place at Musikbunker Aachen in Aachen, Germany. Support will come from NORTHWARD, GOATBLOOD and MORAST. For more info and updates, visit the Concert Event Page.
In 2012, LASTER released the three-track EP, Wijsgeer & Narreman on Dunkelheit Produktionen. Praised for its bleak, yet hypnotic and poetic delivery, the EP is currently available on CD, cassette and digital formats. Looping lamentation and genuine gloom brought to life by songs which leave the standard of DSBM far behind. Floating riffs, melancholic and full of grace, rolling drums and pressing lyrics tell stories about pain that was lived through and artistic musicianship. This music’s pathos aspirated by an energy standing up again and again to fade within monotonous doubt and to indulge in blind despair.
LASTER (meaning libel) was founded and located in Utrecht, the Netherlands. The band consists of N. (NORTHWARD) and W.Damiaen (OMNINIHILIST, SEA OF TREES, WILLOOS, WHITE OAK). Wijsgeer &Narreman is recommended for fans of URFAUST and AUSTERE!
Within this week marking the anniversary of the horrific events that occurred in the U.S.A. on September 11th, 2001, I will be featuring songs of hope, love, inspiration, positive vibes and goodwill towards man. These songs will be pulled from the Hard Rock and Metal genres too. Hopefully, an attack like that will never happen again upon any country.
There currently is way too much conflict and suffering happening in the world today; our life on Earth is too short for such carnage and despair. War is not the answer and I cherish life, family, music and of course… Metal Buddies. Metal be thy name.
Below is the live music video that shows the super legendary TRIUMPH performing their classic hit Fight The Good Fight. This footage was filmed at the incredibly historical US Festival ’83, on May 29th (1983). This special day was also designated as: Heavy Metal Day. Just the name of this band, TRIUMPH, is inspirational!
Fight The Good Fight is a timeless song about being strong, overcoming everyday obstacles and embodying personal perseverance. Lyrically, this song also reasons that more money will not rest your soul. What more can be said about this classic song being positive? Crank it up below and always remember to… Fight The Good Fight! Metal be thy name.
Fight The Good Fight is from TRIUMPH’s 1981 studio album: Allied Forces.
