CVLT Nation is fucking way stoked that Sonic Cathedrals Vol. LXX Curated by Hooded Menace goes live today! Lasse, their guitarist, did the honors and selected all of the songs you are about to hear. He wrote an in-depth introduction on why he picked these tunes below. I will say that this volume rocks & is some bonafide classic material!!!
Here’re some of the songs that were in hard rotation in my room’s tape deck or vinyl player from early 80’s to late 80’s. Of course I still listen to all this stuff. As much I might liked to be a couple of years younger, I’m happy I grew up in the 80’s during the most exciting era of heavy metal. This mixtape is my musical upbringing in a nutshell and I’m glad to share it with you although many of my choices are quite obvious. I included some of the first rock songs I remember getting into like “Jailhouse Rock” by Elvis and “Anarchy in the UK” by the punks of Sex Pistols. Hassisen Kone, the best Finnish rock band of all time, was also extremely important. They even came from my sleepy hometown! Amazing!! Stray Cats were probably the first band I can say I was a really big fan of, so naturally they’re included as well. I tried to put the tracks more or less in chronological order at least up to the days when tharsh metal came in the picture.
Enjoy!Lasse / Hooded Menace

Awesome that Lassi included some finnish music also, referring to Hassisen Kone. This is awesome, really nostalgic list, I’m having a lot of fun listening to this.

You & I must be the same age because you basically posted my entire 80’s record collection! Putting WASP, Cryptic Slaughter, and AOD in the same mix – brilliant! This is the best & most honest Sonic Cathedral yet.
