#while Slayer was severely overshadowed by Metallica Megadeth and eventually Anthrax

[fierykitten2]

Y’know, between me being obsessed with their covers of Delivering the Goods and Never Say Die (even though I listened to the originals first somehow despite getting into Megadeth a year before I got into Black Sabbath and Judas Priest and still vastly prefer the originals), thinking about Sleepwalker while watching a YouTube video about Redditors sleepwalking and today listening to Elysian Fields, I think Megadeth may have to be my fourth “focus band” for this year (don’t ask why I’m calling them focus bands the term came to me and I gave up on trying to think of a better term this happens also I swear this has nothing to do with the item of the same name in Pokémon) which I guess works, when obsessing over the Emo Quartet in 2022 and the Thrash Metal Big Four in 2023 I had four “focus bands” seriously how did I not realise I was using the name of a Pokémon item until making this post but this year I currently only have Black Sabbath, Judas Priest and Iron Maiden so adding Megadeth to the mix would be an interesting idea even though it means I’m even less likely to listen to Black Sabbath songs (oops, Black Sabbath seem to have been given the Slayer treatment (rarely listen to, genuinely would be surprised if I listened to them at any point unless it’s Sabbath Bloody Sabbath or Never Say Die) while Judas Priest seem to have been given the MCR treatment (almost always listen to, genuinely would be surprised if in a single day I listened to music but didn’t listen to any Judas Priest songs) and Iron Maiden is somewhere in between)

Also you know I’ll obsess over at least Metallica, Anthrax and MCR again later this year anyway
