Sacrilege's second full-length album combines Thrash / Doom Metal. Compared to the debut, the songs are more refined and of better quality. There are numerous traits that correspond to doom but this is still without a doubt a thrash album, just a bit slower for most of the long ride. Nov 6, 2022


combination of Thrash Metal & UK Crust Punk with female singer. The album is raw and pissed off, the lyrics are fairly political and theres no elaborate studio wash-job, just uncompromising music. Nov 6, 2022


Condition Hüman is the second Queensrÿche album with new singer Todd La Torre. The album is full of great songwriting, good melodic metal riffs, soaring vocals & widdly guitar solos. There is no doubt that Queensrÿche has a bright future so long as they continue to fill their Progressive / Heavy Metal roots. Nov 5, 2022


another high underrated album. Technical Thrash / Progressive Metal in greatest quality. Nov 4, 2022


Deception Ignored is one of the most overlooked Technical Thrash Metal albums of all time & is also huge step-up from the band previous albums. Nov 4, 2022


eleven years is quite a long time, especially in the music scene. After such a long time, some groups are no longer able to follow up on the quality of their previous albums. Fortunately, this is not the case of Dragonland who released great Progressive / Power Metal album. The music is diverse, often changing and slightly different from their older work, but overall is excellent. Nov 3, 2022


combination of old school Heavy / Power Metal. This album is all killer and no filler - highly worth getting, as it is timely even in the present time. Nov 2, 2022


I am not huge fan of Old School Death Metal, I prefer more Melodic Death Metal, but this album is great. The music is varied and at the same time so heavy with an excellent flow and a lot of energy. Oct 30, 2022


This record is a real hit-or-miss release. But I still do not understand, why is this album so heavy underrated by the old fans. The album is full of good ideas and from my point of view, it even contains better vocals than on the previous ones. Oct 28, 2022


despite several listens, album did not impress me at all. Although it sometimes contains some interesting moments Oct 27, 2022


surprisingly very good Melodic Power Metal album. The band consists of two former bandmates from the rock band H.E.A.T. Oct 27, 2022


it's not a style of music that I like, but it's listenable and the album has some decent beats. However, not enough for me to give a higher rating. Oct 26, 2022


After Messiah Marcolin left the band, Candlemass composed and recorded an incredibly strong record with new singer Tomas Vikstrom. He is really an excellent singer with some high notes & is also technically perfect. The guitar riffs are not as heavy or crushing as they were in the past, but they are still excellent. Oct 26, 2022


Music on Beyond the Crimson Horizon is an excellent example, how Epic Doom / Power Metal was meant to sound. Dark, atmospheric, melancholic & brooding. Very good album. Oct 26, 2022


Doctor Butcher was the side project of Jon Oliva (Savatage) and also featuring later Savatage guitarist Chris Caffery. Music is combination of Heavy / Power Metal and is more straightforward and harsh than their main group. Oct 26, 2022


This is a great album. I'm a big Stratovarius fan, I would even say that I like Timo Tolkki s singing as much as later Timo Kotipelto s. Dreamspace is the last to feature guitarist Timo Tolkki on vocals & this was also the first album that long time bassist Jari Kainulainen performed on. The musicians are at their creative heights and felt free to experiment with whatever they wanted to and you can hear this freedom of choice and courage on this album. Oct 26, 2022


This is not good. Weak ideas and bland music. Oct 26, 2022


Solitude Aeturnus third full length album is an great example of everything going right. The guitar riffs / solos, vocals, drums, bass, production and lyrics are great. This album brings forth a formidable ocean of emotions alongside some classy, old school Epic Doom Metal musicianship. Oct 26, 2022


it's a pity, that this great album is so underrated. Force of Habit takes a different direction, its more Power Metal than Thrash. The production is absolutely amazing, everything sounds like it should. They are focusing on slower songs with downtuned guitars and a number of experimental elements. Oct 26, 2022


Max is back. He is an icon in the Metal music & his legacy needs no explanation to the metal music fans and if you have any knowledge of Soulfly / old Sepultura you will be expecting a certain kind of aggressive music, blended with tribal beats, energy music and heavy riffs. Oct 25, 2022


Post-Black Metal with Dark Jazz influences Oct 25, 2022


One of the biggest changes on album is replacement of vocalist. Personally, I think that Coburn Pharr (later he also sang Annihilator album Never, Neverland from 1990) was a good singer, but most die-hard fans did not welcome his arrival & also a partial change of bands style. However, I also like Escape to Nowhere album and overall I rate it quite positively. Oct 24, 2022


Realm is underrated & little known Technical Thrash Metal band that has produced such solid work of technical prowess all full of good ideas, energy and power that should not go unnoticed. Oct 24, 2022


great album, I really like it. It is a high-quality release by one of the best Melodic Progressive Metal band. It is full of technical passages and contains a handful of great tunes that I have been humming to myself countless times in the current month. Oct 23, 2022


better than the previous one, but it still has some passages I don't like (Nu Metal oriented parts). Oct 23, 2022


great varied album by Soilwork. So many good ideas & fantastic vocals. Oct 23, 2022


good Thrash Metal album, fast and angry. It will kick you in the face, quite a few times. The album sounds really raw and live. The recording budget was probably low. Oct 23, 2022


Razor's music will never be well liked by the non-metal community, but that just makes it all the better. If you're a fan of Speed / Thrash Metal as I am, then you should be able to easily liked this sort of music. Oct 23, 2022


One of the best Razor albums. Although the riffs throughout the album remain fairly simple, they are catchy and fronted by very good solos. There are no intros / outros, no interludes, no ballads & no flirting with other genres. Just great old school Speed / Thrash Metal. Oct 23, 2022

헬로윈 감마레이로 입문한 저로썬 메탈 장르에 뜸해질때가 많았는데, 간만에 이런 엘범을 처음부터 끝까지 들으니 감회가 새롭습니다. 멜로디면 멜로디 구성이면 구성 정신없이 40분여가량이 순삭되는 경험을 했습니다. 파워메탈 장르가 이렇게 잘 살아있구나 하는 감동 받았습니다.. 메탈이 생소한 아내도 좋아하고 자주 듣네요 ㅎ Mar 13, 2025



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



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. 5 days ago


점차 공격성이 사라지고 서정성만을 추구하는 멜데스가 많아질수록 이 앨범은 빛을 발한다 Mar 9, 2025


잉베이의 열정적인 기타와 마크 볼즈의 절정의 보컬을 마음껏 만끽할 수 있어 이 앨범을 듣는것이 무척 즐겁다. 잉베이는 스스로의 실력도 대단하지만, 보컬 복이 참 많은 뮤지션인 것 같다. Mar 10, 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



The "Ram It Down" is a very underrated album, but in 1988 in the german Metal Hammer looked like a new classic by the soundcheck.Otherwise the "Ram it Down" and the "Hard As Iron"(with thundering riff) are great fast classic Priest songs. All in all i think only the "Love Zone" is the only one problematic song and the Lp is great.. Mar 8, 2025



LA메탈의 시작을 알리는 역사적 데뷔작. 빈스닐의 거친 코맹맹이 보컬은 아직 뚫리기 전이고 믹과 토미의 연주도 거칠다. 그런데 합주가 시작되면 니키의 베이스와 어우러져 아주 그럴싸한 곡들이 나온다. 아니, 앨범 전체 곡들의 멜로디가 좋아서 버릴 곡들이 없다. 몇개 히트곡에 의존했던 3,4집과는 수준차이가 크며 2집에도 크게 뒤지지 않는다. Mar 8, 2025


새로운 B급 문화를 만드는데 큰 영향을 준 역사적인 작품이다. 음악 자체는 강렬한 펑크와 블루스, 영국식 헤비메틀이 혼합된 난폭한 스타일이다. 녹음 상태는 열악하지만 감상을 방해하는 정도는 아니다. 서구의 평론가들이 지하감옥에서 연주하는 음악이라고 표현했는데 어쩐지 잘 어울린다. Mar 9, 2025


Fantastic classic album with the legendary Ronnie James Dio.. Mar 9, 2025
