18【YumiMETAL】My Heavy metal journy

When I was a high school student, I listened to pop. One day I heard "Separate Ways" by an American band, JOURNEY. I thought it was such a cool song! After that, I got into heavy music. LA-metal was very popular in the 80s. Out of all these, I liked MOTLEY CREW best. I went to the JUDAS PRIEST show in 1987. It was my first time to watch a Heavy metal performance. Heavy guitar riff, scream and head-banging... I was really crazy about it. There were many cool metal bands in the 80s. I liked ACCEPT, SCORPIONS, QEENS RYCHE, METALLICA, MEGADETH, JUDAS PRIEST... They have been playing Metal for 40 years. Can you believe that?? That's Amazing! However, everything has an end. SLAYER announced their retirement recently. They played at the Download Festival in 2019 as a farewell show in Japan. At the end of the show, Tom Araya talked quietly in Japanese. 「コレガ サイゴノ ショー。サヨナラ、イツカマタネ。」 The 20000 metal-heads in the venue were filled with deep emotion. Also I was so touched although I wasn't a big fan of SLAYER. I was so luckey to be there. I want to go to a metal festival overseas and to talk about metal with metal heads all over the world. Anyway, recently my favorite band is CARCASS. It's a death metal band. My love for metal will continue until my carcass is burned into ashes! ————————— 🗣Do you study English? Join our club!
