Ferocious "Melodic" Death Metal with a great amount of Black Metal-esque atmosphere and chords. This is angry and pained extreme metal. Jul 22, 2023


Much better than the previous "Sick Society," but it still ranks among Chastain's less inspired work. Jul 22, 2023


Another massive drop in quality for Brutal Truth. Noisy Grindcore with some experimental parts, none of the great riffing found on their debut. Jul 22, 2023


Stoner Metal with some Drone influence, the songs are decent, but repetitive with little intrigue to offer. Jul 22, 2023


Nu Metal with a crude sense of humor. Performance, especially the rhythm section here is quite good, but there aren't any real keepers even across the 15 tracks. Jul 22, 2023


Another strong Edge of sanity record, though this one is definitely less focused than previous efforts. Jul 22, 2023


Beautiful masterpiece. If you don't like ballads, stay far away from this album. It contains some of the most graceful, bittersweet compositions known to humanity. Definitely lacks a bit of energy/heaviness though. Feb 14, 2023


One of Vinnie's weaker albums. The playing and songwriting here are subpar. Feb 14, 2023


Great covers by the Polish Death Metal masters. Not as good as their original material, but great homages nonetheless. Feb 14, 2023


It's decent folk, but not enough going on here to capture my attention. Feb 14, 2023


Bloated and full of filler, but still one of the best Christmas albums and a wonderful concept story to go with it. Some incredibly touching material here. Feb 14, 2023


Decent album of covers, all the best songs are at the beginning though. Feb 14, 2023


Stunning album that popularized the beauty and beast vocal style that became integral to Gothic Metal. Fantastic keys and atmospheres. Feb 14, 2023


Stratovarius play straightforward Neoclassical Power Metal, some really great tracks here and there, some weaker songs, great album overall. Feb 13, 2023


A rather boring and mediocre Grunge album. One track I really like - Tighter & Tighter, some great emotion to that one. Feb 13, 2023


Slayer's worst album on account of it being a covers album, but it's still great. The original track Gemini is one of their best songs period. Feb 13, 2023


Insane nose-dive by Sepultura here. There are practically no riffs, just rhythmic one-note picking along to tribal drumming. Feb 13, 2023


Sentenced go full Gothic Metal here, with a healthy dose of Heavy Metal as well. Pretty great, but doesn't hold a candle to the prior albums. Feb 13, 2023


One of the band's weaker albums, but it's still got some good tracks on it. Feb 13, 2023


Top tier Black Metal, a rare case of mostly classic Black Metal sound but with really great musicianship and technical songwriting. Feb 13, 2023


Uninspired and the mixing of the drum machine is pretty bad, but some of the songs have good riffs and nice aggressive energy. Feb 13, 2023


Amazing album! This is how you do Industrial Metal right. Plenty of Sympho Black keys and spacey atmospheres, melodic leads, great rhythm... It's got it all. Feb 13, 2023


Solid Melodeath album, very consistent front to back. Nothing too memorable, but all the musicianship is quality. Feb 13, 2023


Very repetitive, to the point it gets grating. Lyrics are also sub par. Only the bass is good. Feb 13, 2023


Standard Rage, so you know it' great. But not too great. Feb 13, 2023


Awesome ideas here, but the mixing is weak, the guitars are forced back, and the songs have totally lost their power. Still, the compositions alone are just great. Feb 13, 2023


This one is quite great, they create some awesome spacey atmosphere here. Feb 13, 2023


Quite a weak album by Overkill. Mostly Groove Metal, with some odd parts (like the opening track) that really drag it down. Feb 13, 2023


Possibly Opeth's best album in my opinion. The only weakness is the production is sub-par, but that's no issue for me. All players are top notch, even the bass is super audible and impressive here. Lyrics are moving, atmosphere is tense and dark... just phenomenal. Feb 13, 2023


Beautiful, stunning Progressive Gothic Doom. Amazing atmospheres here, it's quite repetitive at times, but the band uses that to good effect in building soundscapes. Feb 13, 2023

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. 4 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
