How have I not had Black Sabbath on Metal Tuesday? I’m rectifying that with one of their more famous songs.

I love the beginning rift, and Mary’s Blood is quickly becoming one of my favorite bands.

This week, we’re celebrating the 35th anniversary of my favorite cartoon – Robotech! Not really sure whom to credit for this rendition of one of my favorite Robotech songs.

I’ve been really getting into Avantasia lately, so this is one we haven’t heard yet.

This is a good example of how Kissin’ Dynamite is just a fun band.

Dragonforce has been doing some excellent metal covers of notoriously non-metal songs. For example:

Another strong song off their latest album. And I do so love anime music videos.

Let’s see. I love Babymetal. I love Sabaton. I love Alestorm. Let’s take the lead singer of Sabaton, have him on a Babymetal song. And just for fun, make it sound like an Alestorm song.

Avantasia is one of my favorite bands, and I love how “punchy” their songs can be.

I’m not a huge Avenged Sevenfold, but I do like some of their stuff.
