Probably nobody cares at this point, but whatever.
I have recently acquired every single Motorhead studio release. No, it's not in the attempt in trying to show off. I am simply a completionist by nature. 15 years ago, I owned every single SquareSoft OST from Final Fantasy I to Front Mission 4. Having broken away from the VGM scene in the late 2000s, I gradually became more enthralled in British/American Rock bands.
From 2015 at the earliest, I begun to acquire Black Sabbath and Dio (The Band) albums. I wasn't expecting to get on a third group, but Motorhead truly struck the right chords with me. Something about Lemmy's distorted bass and his cigarette/whisky soaked voice, plus the various drummers and guitarists that joined through the duration of the band.
Last, but certainly not least, is a soundtrack to a film you might have heard of by chance, Arachnophobia. Scored by Trevor Jones (of Dark Crystal and Labyrinth fame), it was the perfect mix of orchestral and synthesized music. The film itself, which I might have alluded to before (I forget) and is mainly responsible for my current infatuation with anything spider-related (save Spider-Man).
So... currently, here is what I possess. (To anyone interested.)
20 Black Sabbath albums.
Black Sabbath (1970) - 13 (2013) (19 albums) + The Devil You Know by Heaven & Hell (2009) (It had Ronnie James Dio, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Vinny Appice, who gave us Mob Rules and Dehumanizer, so it counts !)
10 Dio albums
Holy Diver (1983) - Master Of The Moon (2004)
22 Motorhead albums
Motorhead (1977) - Bad Magic (2015)
Final Fantasy VI OSV by Nobuo Uematsu
Arachnophobia Film Soundtrack by Trevor Jones
Not bad for a music collection, right ?
