[taintedegotrip]

@5150pb zeppelin would eat their asses for breakfast lol

[ZZombyWooff]

I try to open this song from my favorites, and youtube puts Saber Rider theme song on.. cursed..

[kevil665]

wow,a great song made the year i was born,i want this!!!! where can i get it,who has it i need it!!!!!!

[jaganjacfan]

can someone get me lyrics for the song? there's none on the net...

[chimpyviolence]

intro riff sounds like the old xmen cartoon theme tune haha. or the other way around

[nathanoman1]

this sounds nothing like opeth...but i dont know where this band came from im drunk but it s been kickin my ass1!

[nathanoman1]

fuck Opeth

[bangermetal09]

hahaha i was thinkin in something more like "the exorsist" xd

[tokenXsk8]

@bangermetal09 ya me to man

[nathanoman1]

[nathanoman1]

night sun-mournin

[designerhell]

nnnyyyeeeeaaaa, theyll never amount ta NUTHIN! nnnyyyeeeaaaa, kids these days dont know NUTHIN bout NUTHIN! why when i was in my soft moss, we had REAL music like....petey and the plumbers. er yankee hank and his twangmen. these kids now...dont know baking powder ta soda! nnnyyyeeeaaa...(shuffle)

[themadhouse209]

There must be a few bands called possessed

[themadhouse209]

TThere

[ptola]

wow! crazy stuff... i'm a big fan of prog rock of the 70s, but this is the first time i hear about this band... sick stuff!

[TourettesOrc]

I cant help but wonder if this band influenced Opeth...

[HunterJiron]

@TourettesOrc I was thinking the same thing. I hear so many old bands that sound just like certain Opeth things. Opeth is amazing and I love finding the bands that probably influenced them.

[lugapan999]

I guess Jeff Beccera from Possessed got this Record from his Mum when he was young...hihihi.

[eurorocker79]

Their end was a terrible tragedy... what a sad story...

We are lucky they left us with a great album, but man, how awful...

[AylesProductions]

@eurorocker79 What was their "end"?

[eurorocker79]

@AylesProductions

Band members died in a highway accident.

[AylesProductions]

@eurorocker79 Oh.. wow. that is horrible. :/

[jonntoadonly]

plus the main riff reminds me of I wanna f#ck myself" by GG Allin, but it's probably a coincidence...

[rebelmisft]

@jonntoadonly Hah! I don't really hear it though.

[marcoelvikingo]

This Possessed is really good!

[TheSamuel213]

YEAH!! jebáááá..

[pickitupdlux]

this is really cool. one of my favorite "genres", to use the term loosely, is old obscure 70's hard rock/metal that puts a whole new spin on the early days of metal, especially stuff with fantasy or occult overtones. so much music like this is probably sitting in someone's basement or attic and we might never hear it

[InfernalNightlord]

@pickitupdlux Yes, the internet, and especielly Youtube gives many chances to search for unknown music from the early days of (heavy) rock music. I already found some awesome bands,i never heard about. Check out Dust, Hardstuff or Sir Lord Baltimore: awesome music!!!

[CodyRicheson]

@pickitupdlux, amen to that my friend. As much as I love extreme metal, the brutality can get old. It's refreshing to hear older metal, particularly if it's the rare stuff.

[chazfusionmetal]

Hey, this is neat stuff... sounds much different from the "Possessed" that I normally listen to... haha.

[VITRUVVII]

@chazfusionmetal LOLLLLLLLLLL

[mustaineisgod4sure]

@chazfusionmetal death metal possessed?

[chazfusionmetal]

@mustaineisgod4sure Yes sir.\m/

[anarchobands]

@chazfusionmetal I know the possessed you mean buy yeah this shit is great!

[factoryworker222]

this cant be the same band as the Thrash /Death group from the 80's!! they just share the name. I doubt the 8os group even knew of these guys

[saddylicious]

@factoryworker222

it's not the same band. 

[DaleMcMutt]

@factoryworker222 I don't think they did, but I'll be sure to mention this to Jeff. I think he'd get a kick out of it.

[LianLessa]

awesome band!

[therealnapster94]

funky

[pablotepa13]

There is another Possessed? great!

[Vidiosmokes]

@pablotepa13 its the same band just difrant members

[pablotepa13]

@Vidiosmokes THE DEATH METAL BAND?

[Vidiosmokes]

@pablotepa13 yea! they formed some time in the 60s by diffrant members then they converted to death metal some time during the 80s

[pablotepa13]

@Vidiosmokes JAJAJAJAJA NICE STORY MEN.

[blues4soccer]

@Vidiosmokes this is not the same possessed :P

[SadusKreatorPriest]

Dude them dying the way the did is tragic. True heroes rock or otherwise will never die. Possessed for ever.

[humornegro7]

@SadusKreatorPriest how do they died?

[Abrohill]

la raja, en algo me recuerda a Yes

[MrMikonen77]

[StayStrangeAmerica]

God bless Possessed and Lee Dorian for reissuing this on rise Above Relics]and Rise above records in general!
