An absolute Metal Legend! I know Thrash took off and became the biggest Metal subgenre of the 80s but over the past few years I've came to really appreciate Speed Metal as something that's equally valid and has it's own style and energy.
Exciter's 80s records stand toe-to-toe with ANY of the Thrash bands.
I say that Thrash packs more CRUNCH, but Speed packs more PUNCH!
The first metal show I ever went to was megadeth and korn opened for them back in 95 when no one knew them. I loved megadeth but didn’t know korn I was 14 and korn left a impression on me I was so high on shr00ms too haha
Speed and trash are the same thing. Megadeth used to have a shirt around the time of Killing is my biz that said “State of the art speed metal” on the back. People obsess over sub genres too much
@@thadood4373 Not true, speed metal can be also heavy speed, power speed etc.
@@thadood4373 The reason Exciter are underrated is because Speed and Thrash are not the same thing, Speed was a sub-genre that was the half-way stepping stone between Heavy Metal and Thrash Metal.
The problem is - after 1985/6 - Thrash dominated so much that a band like Exciter had a sound that was viewed as outdated by some.
Even Metallica have payed respect to their Speed Metal roots with their newer song "Lux Æterna".
Listen to the difference between that song and a song like "Battery" which is pure Thrash.
The first 3 Exiter records are classics!
Dan seems like an awesome fella, excellent interview.
He needs to bring EXCITER to Australia.
Exciter is by far one of the most important bands ever! Love those guys!
Interviews have become my favourite part of this channel, jdawg is a natural talker, no BS, gets the anecdotes from almost all the interviewees, dope!
I'm glad that they are still touring!!! Exciter are legends.🤘666🤘
Dan is the coolest dude in person. Got the chance to drink and party with him at Hells Heroes this year. Legend!
This is so awesome!!! I saw Exciter in San Diego... I believe it was 1984, and Megadeth was the opening act. The show was held in a roller rink, and there were as many punks as there were metalheads in there. I'm an "old head" and let me say that the 80's were magical years to be a young metalhead looking to find something besides lame ass hair metal. Horns up Devils!!
Horns Up!!! 1987 for me. "Taken by VIOLENCE AND FORCE"
I had one hell of a time back then. We were witnessing something very special. Ideas were fresh and unlimited. Glad we were a part of it. Hail!!!
Scarygoat. It was a slammin scene, metal/punk crossover. Lotsa local gigs. I'm east coast canadian and the scene was all over Canada/ east coast states, DIY. Truly a FKN Brotherhood! Hail!!
@@timbeck6726 I still live in San Diego and with Los Angeles right up the freeway, we had so many choices, and the scene was pumping!!! With Hair Metal dominating most of the clubs, we just had to pry a little deeper to find the extreme stuff. What a grand time it was!!! And yes... the fkn brotherhood!! Glad to see the Old Heads can still unite from wherever we are!!!
Awesome interview with Dan the Man! I saw Exciter in 1985 (Megadeth and Exodus opened). Great to see that he's still a "Heavy Metal Maniac" and "Pounding Metal" 40 years later! Long Live the Loud.
Missed them in Chicago but happy to have shared the stage with them at Blades of Steel Metalfest. Damn did they level the place.
That's awesome dude congratulations on that \m/ . . . Do you guys still record with Dan kline ? I've worked with him a few times, but haven't seen or talked to him in years.
@pudendalneuralgia yes it is.
@@Hoyafyahboyacoya thanks man. Yes we have on the Parallel Dimension of Despair album
That we have not, we are on the diy approach. With the one after and the upcoming new album
@pudendalneuralgiaIf you don't know Cardiac Arrest and you like badass old school death metal, buy some of their records. Trust me.
I wonder if J-Dawg realizes that 'Young Buck' Daniel Dekay is also from BangerTV? 😂
I dont think he'd be offended by that video but you never know.
Ahh. I knew I recognized the name from somewhere.
I thought that name was familiar
Speed Metal Maestro's! This interview is gold. Learned so much! Totally old school vibe throughout. Again , keep up the outstanding work!!! 🤘🤘🦇
Feel the Knife is a badass song and they just threw it together in half an hour lol great interview. One of the few drummer vocalist out there and super fucking talented.
Speed metal ideally put together quick🤘
Killer man, Exciter steamrolling pooooooooooooosers since 1980. People don't realize how hard it is to tour a band in Canada compared to the States. I live in Canada and only saw Exciter once.
Proud to be from Ottawa, home of Exciter and many other great bands.
Mercyful Fate, Motorhead and the almighty Exciter. Now you're speaking my language.
I gotta say, the dawg is great with these interviews. I think it’s because he comes at it from the perspective of a fan instead of a media person.
Daniel Dekay works for BangerTV and plays in Diemonds as well.
Saw that, came to the conclusion he must be the least poser there XD
@@SuicidalGrind Been a while since I've watched any of their videos, but if I recall there were a couple of people there who legitimately were into underground metal and didn't just limit themselves to bigger bands. I think it was Blayne, Sarah, and that Bradley guy.
@@Poser_Metal_Records I just know I hate the guy who did the Kingdoms Disdained vid brah brah
Best interview I've seen on the channel!
Saw them with Hirax in San Diego way back in the day
Whoo EXCITER! Heavy Metal Maniac!
Dude said "God bless them!" While wearing a 666 shirt. Lol. Just had to point that out. Not taking anything away from the band, just thought that was funny.
Yeah noticed that too. Guessing it's just a force a habit from his youth.
A 666 shirt while also having a cross necklace, it's all a bit silly.
@@SuicidalGrind Black Sabbath wore crosses too, and they had 666 on the sabbath bloody sabbath artwork, who cares it's just symbols.
@@SuicidalGrindWhat's silly about it??? They are both created by Christianity. So was Satan for that matter. If you want to be evil, you got to first get rid of the Christian created concepts. Quorthron figured out how silly the whole Dark side of Christianity is. That is all Satanism is . Pagan ideas are the only way to go
And I tried to nail an Interview with them In Montreal on the 19th of OCT.....
Ohhh well. Great Stuff on Justin for nailing interview with DAN the Original EXCITER 😁👍
Great interview. I've never seen this band live, but have been a big fan for a long time. Eric Adams of Manowar once told me how much he thought Exciter was a great band with an awesome drummer. 🤘
I seen you guys in 1984 Phoenix az. At mason jar exciter violence and force tour with flotsam & jetsom with Jason opened up . Still have photos of you guys wearing your metal studs pounding metal I had the tour shirt with the switch blade on it. Memories I was 14 teen .
Killer interview once again J-Dawg. Can’t wait to see Exciter In SF in a few weeks 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Great interview J-dawg! Thanks for the content
EXCITER see ya on November 4th!
It all comes down to NWOBHM and UK82 (with that comes '77 wave)
British *
Dan is awesome. My wife meet him in Philly. Had no idea who he was. They were chatting about Coroner. I almost dropped my beer when I see them chilling at the bar. The guy was friendly, super shy but a real down to earth guy.
Amazing band. Met all of them back in the late 80's, autographs, talking to them, the best band to talk too, amazing band, brilliant people, genuine dudes, full respect to them. Seen them 3 times now, they play again in the UK, I WILL BE THERE. An Honest, genuine, Metal Band. RESPECT SIRS.
A true old school guy, only does it old school because it's the only way he knows. A lot of "WE'RE BAAAAAAAACK!" bands sure could learn a lot!
Also helps that the tuneskis are killer aaaaaaas fuuuuck, Exciter is definitely on my list of bands anyone into Metal should almost mandatory pick up at some point.
I like when J-Dawg yells “It’s been yeeeaaarrrssss!”😂
outstanding interview
For a second I thought Bobby Blitz finally has made an appearance
Justin hit it on the nail with the Witch Cross example.. I was thinking the same thing.. Thank goodness this sounds like hope that a new Exciter would not lose its Exciter magic and sound
Great interview, super nice Dude. Bummed I didn’t go that show.
@2:10 I thought Justin was gonna say "canooooe!".
I bought violence and force and heavy metal maniac when they were new at the only store in dfw that sold combat at the time and saw the tour with fate and Motörhead in 84, skipped school that day and waited for fate to show up at the same store to sign shit, still have the ticket and will always remember like it was yesterday, one of those life changing events
Wonderful interview - thanks J-Dawg and Dan!😈🤘
Next Monday for me in Philadelphia. I can’t wait.
I actually like the fifth self titled Exciter album, has the song Playing With Fire on it!
Heavy Metal Maniac is a classic metal album a plus for any metal head
SUP Devils!
@@Leave_The_Hall_69 Sup guy who controls half the accounts that post on every one of J Dawg's videos!
Great interview! Legend!
Absolute top interview
Got to meet this legend at the Rochester show. Super nice guy!
Exciter was my favorite metal band in '83-'84, (until we discovered Overkill in '85) I saw them on that '84 tour with Motorhead and Fate in NJ, and I was effing pissed because we got lost driving out there from LINY and ended up missing half of Exciter's set. But that's always been my problem with shows, the opening bands are often the ones I want to see the most. But man he looks old now, he's a few months younger than me but he looks old AF.
Good lookin out on free CD. Should have been more specific, couldn't add the free compilation and couldn't figure out why. Appreciate it either way!
Been into Exciter since 1983. Saw them in Brooklyn this past Saturday night, and it was one of the best shows I’ve ever seen.
Unveiling rules. Die In The Night is one of my favourite tunes to pump iron to.
EXCITER FUCKING RULES!!!! Love those guys!! EVIL SINNER!!!!!
Altar. Great shirt. My first gig ever was seeing them in 1994.
Youth Against Christ !!!
Hell yeah this is great 👍the dawg got heavy metal royaltyright now, Hail exciter. I've been jamming metal maniacs on cassette in my 96 Nissan altima for the past week \m/
Not jamming 7 Churches yet, I see? 🤣
@LaylaLover90 😬 . . . Give me a break brah brah I'm working on it 😆 🤣 😂 😹 \m/
@@Hoyafyahboyacoya God dammit to think a young buck might skool you on owning Seven Churches first....shame
@@LaylaLover90 I listened to Seven Churches today, it never gets old.
@@SuicidalGrind 😢 , I have a boot that I may or may not have gotten dooped on . . .
Goddamn. Altar - youths against christ. Thats an Ill shirt
Hell yea ! I am a fukkin maniac !!
Saw Exciter at Hells Heroes earlier this year. Fucking great set.
Saw Dan & Exciter headline the Cabaret Metro in Chicago in '84. The first underground metal show I ever saw. They don't get the props they deserve for being at the forefront of an emerging genre. Kinda like their Canadian brethren Anvil.
Sup devils
Devils hour
Crush canoes
back in the day Raven Tank Anvil was underground then Venom that sarted shit up and the Rods no trash that was under ground metal
Those first three Raven albums are some wild, raucous shit!
@@jefflawson3574 true they are really
Oh yes, Raven are amazing and truly influential. I liked how King Fowley said previously on the channel how he wasn't impressed with Kill 'Em All because he was already into Raven's Wiped Out and Venom's Black Metal when it came out.
Seen them in Pittsburgh on Sunday. Hell of a show. And it was the first time they ever played here.
Dude fuck yes iron dogs baby
Iron DAWGS*
It's a shame they didn't get their recognition at the time. Maybe they have some of it now.
Brah brah
BRAH BRAH!
For some reason TH-cam has a “Translate to English” option under “brah brah”, and when I click it all it does is make the capital letters lowercase. J Dawg has officially broken AI and the algorithm. Checkmate Zuckerberg!
iron DAWGZ
Seen them live in august was right at the front I’ll tell ya dans drums felt like I got steamed rolled cuz that shit was loud as fuck
20:00 strict limitations are necessary to encourage and enforce creativity. when you think you have unending time and unending options it usually turns out to be a total Lulu-esque mess. disjointed and bizarre in a bad way, an experimental way. and time limits are truly one of the best limitations.
Old Skool 🤘🏽😃🤘🏽
that's a good old metal band great live
So rad!!!!!🤘🤘
It's strange as to why certain cities are better than others as far as Metal Goes...
Hell yeah brah brah
Heavy Metal maniac 🔥🔥
Heavy metal will never die
Fuckin awesome. Great interview
Nice shirt big dog
i bet exciters return will be more in the vein of Satan rather than Witch Cross's demon in the mirror style.
Good shirt brah brah
I must admit, I am not the biggest Exciter fan but this interview changed that. Great interview J Dawg! Banger!!
Great band and a cool name exciter👍
L E G E N D!
Nice 81 shirt
Dan bee glee is the man!!!!!
Cool shirt, youth against Christ
Totally snubbing Kill After Kill. They got 5 great early albums, not 4. Not consecutive, but still.
So modest and humble. What a great dude!
F*ck I NEED that Altar shirt 😮
Altar of jesus ????? I dont get it
It's a band called alter
🤘🏻
Tell dan to get rid of the cross, gotta be down with the devil brotown, darkness and evil!
I’m famous now. Ha ha. 25:35
Finally some true metal instead of all the death metal bullshit.
Saw Exciter open for Venom in 83 and they were loud as fuck. Venom were dreadful.
A 666 shirt and a cross. Eff Dan, I used to kijw Exciter but hate satan
Fantastic interview man. Dan is such a cool dude. A living legend and hero of true metal.
