The instrumentation sound pretty pro. As for the songs, they sound all right to me, but I have a feeling this one might be more for really gunhg ho brutal DM fans.   Nov 20, 2024

Positive all around, but a few songs like track 9 stand above the rest by being more original.   Nov 20, 2024

My pick of the day from yesterday. I loved how it focused only on the harshness, heaviness, technicality, & atmosphere but held back on the melody. Then when everything became melodically focused later on, it really hits the emotional center with force. Well planned, well made.   Nov 20, 2024

With the harp it's rather unique, and there's a bunch of great vocals by the guest performers.   Nov 20, 2024

The new singer is more than decent. I wish more of these songs were as good as track 6; a lot of them are just so-so. There's also too much chatting between the songs. It's supposed to be funny, but it's just filler.   Nov 18, 2024

Great again from Nekus. It has that feeling of deep enclosed caverns just like their 1st album. I also get a real caveman feeling and a lot of gusto. Still extremely dark, of course.   Nov 18, 2024

Friday was a fantastic day for new releases, and with this bizarre work of art, Veilburner keeps the quality as high as their other recent albums, even with the constraints of the 7-track 7-minute pledge they made for their 7th album. I loved it all.   Nov 18, 2024

I was looking forward to this for months, and it's every bit as good as I hoped. All the tracks are good, but what they did on that massive final track is going to be mentioned as a major event in black metal history. This album stole my heart.   Nov 18, 2024

Good & powerful funeral doom with some jazzy elements. Unorthodox and unique, especially for a first full-length.   Nov 18, 2024

A fantastic and deep sadness fills this album. Good depressive BM & doom by Elysian Blaze.   Nov 18, 2024

Good Death Doom. Glad to learn of this band.   Nov 18, 2024

10 years into their career and there is no decrease in energy and passion. Good work by The Cult.   Nov 18, 2024

Old Forest should get a lot more recognition for the great work they've been doing since their early days. Good rough & visceral sounds on this compilation.   Nov 18, 2024

Part 2 is just about as good as Part 1.   Nov 18, 2024

Good evil nighttime music.   Nov 18, 2024

It's pretty good at some parts, but just so-so overall for me. No part was particularly bad for me, but this is nothing compared to some later work by this very good artist.   Nov 18, 2024

I hear some real commitment to having good melodies and proficient playing on this album, but the cringey tones and the embarrassing lyrics make me feel just a bit negative overall. Not mad at Disturbed for this, but I don't like it.   Nov 18, 2024

Respect to Disturbed for releasing this album. Commercial but still good. Tracks 1, 5, & 14 stand out to me. A lot of the more so-so songs are so similar to the better ones. Some trimming could make this a better album, not complaining though.   Nov 18, 2024

I was curious if it was terrible. It's pretty good. Of course it's corny, but the major problem is that the whole album is stuck in real rut - only one mood for the whole thing. The vocals get a bit bad a couple of times, but in terms of instrumentation and composition it's all right.   Nov 18, 2024

The intro is funny only once. The actual music is pretty good.   Nov 18, 2024

It's a kind of music that just begs you to deride it, but it's listenable and humorous. Pretty good.   Nov 18, 2024

Man, that 2nd song really blew me away. No particularly weak track here, but track 2 really emblazoned itself on my memory.   Nov 18, 2024

A good melodic BM album.   Nov 18, 2024

I knew I was facing a long album, but it's just impossible for me to quit after a few tracks; I needed to keep the harsh & hypnotic music coming. One listen is also not enough. This reminds me that when you use the word captivating, it has a literal meaning. As good as all the snobby people say it is. Real inspiration and it's genuine.   Nov 18, 2024

Nice album by Moonsorrow. The intro track didn't feel necessary to me. That's the only negative thing I can say; Good viking & folk metal.   Nov 12, 2024

Solid all around, Acoustic and clean folky segments don't turn into filler, I was extremely pleased to find. Good epicness, emotion, & atmosphere.   Nov 12, 2024

My mission was to have a viking metal Monday. I expected I'd be rolling my eyes every so often, but I actually didn't. This passionate album was the highlight of the day. Yeah, it's about half black metal, very 2nd wave, but I liked the viking parts as well. Absolutely, I can recommend this. Dark, evil, dramatic, rousing, so many good aspects here.   Nov 12, 2024

This one comes in with a great opening song, and the instrumental closing track is really moving. I think the phrase 'instrumental closing track' sounds like filler to a lot of us, but that's not the case here. Overall very good.   Nov 12, 2024

Very spacey feelings with Japanese folk grooves in the mix. Great collaboration by these guys. I can't wait to hear the first album now.   Nov 11, 2024

게임 매드무비에 넣을 곡이 더 생겼다 밴드 연주 작살난다 보컬리스트가 러셀 엘런같이 노래 개 잘한다 빠른 멜로디인데도 노래를 단단하고 웅장하게 잘 부른다. 있어야 할게 다 있는 파워 메탈의 정석   Mar 15, 2025

언제 들어도 좋은 심포닉 파워 메탈계의 명반   Mar 13, 2025

아무래도 이 1집에서는 많은 이들이 Sweet Child o' Mine을 꼽겠지만, 내게 있어서 이 앨범 최고의 곡은 절대적으로 Nightrain이다. 밴드의 정체성, 색깔, 연주력 등을 한 번에 대변해주는 곡이랄까. 심지어 가사까지 말이다. 같이 늙어간다는 말이 어울리겠지만, 그때의 열정 속에서 Nightrain을 외치고 연주를 하던 그들의 모습은 정말로 젊음의 영웅이자 양아치였다.   Mar 19, 2025

다시 살아난 폼은 떨어질 줄 모르고, 진짜 좋은데.. 정말 좋은데.. 짙게 드리운 어둠이라기에는 너무 명징하다. 컨셉에 맞는 분위기와 강약 조절을 좀만 더 했다면 명반 반열로 올라가는건데, 듣기 좋아서 더욱 그 한끝이 아쉽다.   Mar 30, 2025

I'm pretty sure this is the best debut in history. Sonata Arctica immediately does what they do best and the result is amazing. "FullMoon" is a great song.   Mar 11, 2025

Great album but not at the level of the debut in my opinion. The band tries a bit of progressive direction with pretty good results, although some songs are quite weak. The end of the album is great. Good job Sonata!   Mar 11, 2025

DT caught my attention with their previous album and this one confirms my thoughts on them. I´m not so fond of their old stuffs but these 2 keep me on my feet and I will go back to them regularly.   Mar 12, 2025

Awesome album one of my favourite thrash albums.   Mar 30, 2025

모던 파워 메탈 특유의 대중지향적이고 댄서블한 면이 분명 있으나 선을 넘어버린 다른 밴드 만큼 과하지 않고 적당하다. 앨범 후반부가 좀 아쉽긴 하지만, 그래도 이들의 앨범 중에선 이 앨범이 가장 마음에 듦.   4 days ago

Wintersun combines about 10 different genres with great success on this album. A perfect album, in the top 20 of all time.   4 days ago

Like "Silence", only 1000 times better. The band's absolute best album. Not all the songs are masterpieces, but the best ones are incredible and the atmosphere of the album is epic.   Mar 11, 2025

그 나이에 이게 데뷔앨범 이라는게 믿기지 않는다...다만 이때 모든 힘을 쏟은 것일까...ㅠ   Mar 12, 2025

모든 사운드가 사악하다.   Mar 12, 2025

Probably Judas Priest's most commercially successful album, and it's extremely good. The song material is brilliant, and if we forget the existence of "Pain And Pleasure" and "Fever", it's perfect. The "Hellion/Electric Eye" duo is still one of the greatest opening tracks in metal history. The production is tuned to exactly the level that a band of this class should have. And then there's Rob Halford. Absolutely phenomenal, a top-3 Priest album for me.   Mar 13, 2025

이시기에 나온 데스메탈 앨범들을 생각해보면 이들은 진짜 못해도 혼자서 20년을 넘게 앞서갔다.   Mar 13, 2025

90-95 이미 3집부터 이들의 음악은 헤비하고 꽤 프로그레시브의 주제의식을 가진 앨범들로 발전해갔다. 앨범커버는 dc 코믹스와 마블에서 유명한 Ethan Van Sciver의 그림이라고 한다. 일본반은 2번의 어쿠스틱 버전이 더 들어가 있다. 윙어의 진가는 이미 전작부터 보여줬고 깊이 있는 음악을 보여주는 것이 딱 내가 원하는 그런 밴드이다.   Mar 13, 2025

슬로바키아의 세풀투라. 89점.   Mar 13, 2025

Rainbow leaves classic hard rock behind with their second album and begins to create the beginnings of the genre that would later be called power metal. The song material is practically perfect and the album features perhaps the strongest band line-up in history. The last two songs are pure masterpieces. If melodic old-school heavy metal with incredible vocal performances interests you, now you know where to look. Legendary!   Mar 15, 2025

Excellant Amorphis album.   Mar 15, 2025
