super-righteous songs with that samba-rock thundering galloping horse rhythm like barracuda by heart or the immigrant song by zeppelin

Make sure to plug some decent outboard speakers into your computer, especially if you have a laptop.

basically this stuff and Thin Lizzy (do TL have any songs that fit in this thread? hmm) kind of describe the kind of hard rock and early metal i like, stuff that's fast and driving but still kind of swings. are there any modern/cool/underground metal bands that do that kind of thing well?

I guess The Darkness and Jet were playing in this kind of mode. I don't know if they are considered metal though.

Super-righteous songs with thundering galloping horse rhythms that sound nothing like Barracuda or Immigrant Song

Oh sweet jesus that solo in "Keep Yourself Alive". I think it may be my favorite Queen song ever!

ehhh, they're both more indebted to the more rigid 4/4 riff rock style of AC/DC, which i also love but is a completely different thing.

Kiss - I was made for loving you has this going on iirc

Stevie nicks 'edge of seventeen' is kind of a steady, cool, hinged take on this theme, eh?

You need to hear Slade's super righteous "Run Runaway" if you are into gallop-wave.

oh yeah, "Crazy Horses", that's a riff...there's another clip of this on the Youtubes, where the Osmonds are decked out in the craziest pimp outfits ever...

I love how the audience just sits there during the Nazareth performance...the whole thing feels like performance art...

I love Keep Yourself Alive. it's a shame I like so little of the rest of Queen I.

It's also the only samba-rock thundering galloping horse song with a kazoo solo.
