Omen - Teeth of the Hydra

[yellowraven8]

AMAZING GREEK MYTH METAL SONG !!

[dave5150ism]

Yea Metal Blade,great compilation had to buy like 3 of them killer shit.

[babis6667]

what can anyone say...I get shivers...

[LordOfNothingham]

One person fell to the Hydra.

[LaceraBathori]

Man this is my D & D song way back in middle school when me and my buds were fanatics! The Best Of Metal Blade Vol.2 was played over and over to the rolling of 20-sided die. +3 to all PC Hit Die during the spoken word segment before the guitar solo!

[LordOfNothingham]

Wow I remember this on the Best of Metal Blade!

[67caravan]

Many have tried and many have died,.............

[dungeonsarecalling]

Classic heavy metal song! :)

[kosorg]

judas is risiiiiiinggggggggg!!!!!!!!!!!­!

[TheJudoKevin]

I haven't heard this song since like 87, when it was on a Metal Blade compilation between some real early Slayer song and Lizzy Borden's Notorious.

This brings back memories, thanx.

[JMDewald]

@TheJudoKevin I have this tape, it's Best of Metal Blade vol. 2. Black Magic is the Slayer song.

[TheJudoKevin]

@JMDewald Black Magic - I used to play this song in a really shitty speed metal band around 1989. I can't believe I forgot it. What other gems were on that compilation?

[JMDewald]

@TheJudoKevin

The Slayer and Omen songs are the only two I remember, besides Thin Lizzies' Notorious. And I think most of us have been in a shitty speed metal band at some point, lol.

[LaceraBathori]

@TheJudoKevin That comp was the baddest! Hirax "Capital Punishment", Sentinel Beast "Dogs Of War", Detente (featuring the legendary Dawn Crosby R.I.P.) "Holy War", Sound Barrier "Gladiator" (this will turn you into a shameless metal nerd!), Destruction "Eternal Ban", Krank "Rented Heat", Hallow's Eve "Lethal Tendencies", Cities "Burn Forever and Sodom "Deathlike Silence" (the black metal anthem!)!!!! And a few others, but these were my jams. My tape broke twice, was taped & still plays!

[yleisjakkaralemmikki]

Why they don't do metal like this anymore?

[metz3962]

Their 3 first albums - Battle cry, Warning of danger and The Curse - are amazing.

[mauga7480]

Reminds me "Judas Priest - Judas is rising", but rocks like hell!

[JJames666male]

@mauga7480 this is just 20 years before

[pollaris18]

Amazing band!

[floatingcompassmedia]

flashback, good and sad...aw I miss these Metal days.

[CanadianReich]

classic song. Listened to this doing weights in my parents basement back when i was in HS and buffed...now im old grey and fat...and this song still kicks ass.

[TheDapack]

@Sermonized747 Agreed up to the Priest and Sabbath comments, both were great.

[lester5192]

reminds me of metal churches 2nd album but way better.

[TheGoldenPS1]

Would have wished the sound quality was better. It's too low for this song! :D I used to turned up the speakers loud when I play this in my CD player!

[tammysyl]

this song´s great, yeah!!!

[Rettke]

seventh son of a seventh son... wonder where did they get the intro

[Sermonized747]

@Rettke Yep you re right..Maiden could not write a single good song...they need to listen to Omen for inspiration,these 3 notes of this intro is the reason Maiden released Seventh Son,Omen back then had the copyrights of these 3 notes,all other bands they were free to use the other 4 remaining notes,in fact Omen is a better band than Maiden,even better than Priest and Sabbath....they should be more famous than Michael Jackson, what an underrated band... OMG

[dungeonsarecalling]

@Rettke Which band got intro whom which? Omen's The Curse was released at '86 while Seventh Son was released 2 years later at '88. Besides don't sound the same just bit alike.

[diemutha666]

Man,I had this on cassette in the 80's.Another great forgotten album was David T Chastain's " Ruler Of The Wasteland".

[sk1llblack]

@diemutha666 hellyeah mate i aggree, chastain is a genious.

Another great song! Also, if possible to share AT ALL COST, that will be great too!

Thanx!!!

[AstralDimention]

[amartinez97]

I killed that big bitch in god of war :D

[fatesrush]

One of the weaker bands that were on the Metal Blade label.

You are better off listening to Fates Warning.

[BHDSN]

Totally great old school Metal for sure!!!

[6zeroro6]

Man this song brings back sooo many good memories!!!

[cryptid77]

I agree Johnmom. Now if the so called Nu-Metal bands would get this cd and learn how to play and sing again maybe Metal will be interesting again

[Agentnoscope]

great song

[Veneficus666]

It's nice to see this here. Omen, in my opinion, was and is one of the more under appreciated bands in metal. J.D. Kimball had a powerful voice that fit the sound of the band perfectly.

[gamegodone1]

whats the name of the bassist in this band?

just wondering

[Veneficus666]

If memory serves Jody Henry played bass on this song. It has been quite some time since I owned this album however.

[Scumdogia]

Too bad those faggots left my uncle behind in some bar in Texas xD

I can't believe they'd forget about the lead singer of the band.

HAHAHAHAAH TA SPAW! gamhse to translation. TEETH OF THE HYDRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[Scumdogia]

Jon David Kimbal was my uncle, but I never really got to meet him or listen to his music before he died of cancer. Would you guys be able to brief me on the history behind Omen?

[x3cz2hf]

Formed in 1983 one of the best underground epic/power/heavy metal bands. Their 3 first albums "Battle Cry" "Warning of Danger" "The Curse" are considered cult classics and i dont understand why a band like Omen remained in the underground. J.D. Kimball is considered by many one of the most charismatic voices in the Metal Scene. R.I.P.

[Scumdogia]

Really? I knew my uncle was good, but I was unaware that people thought so highly of him. All I remember is that my dad told me that Omen accidentally left my uncle behind after they all got shit faced at some bar, and that he was fairly popular in Europe.

p.s. Thanks for filling me on that, I really appreciate it. :)
