Pretty standard early Nu Metal. PArt of that first wave, but the album doesn't stand on it's own very well.   Oct 16, 2022

Straightforward OSDM with generous Thrash influence. Not unique, but plenty good!   Oct 16, 2022

I actually liked Dead Infection's earlier material a lot, as it had a focus on great riffs and plenty of Death Metal influence. This one dissolves into total chaos, and there's very little substance to any of these short tracks.   Oct 16, 2022

Darkthrone have always been a bit overrated to me. This album is good, but quite generic, and nothing too memorable.   Oct 16, 2022

The Gallery, a legendary staple of old school Gothenburg Melodeath. While this one falls just short of The Jester Race in my opinion, it's still a fantastic, slightly Neoclassical take on the genre that will forever be a classic.   Oct 16, 2022

An interesting release, I don't know if this is truly Melodeath or more so... Death Metal that is melodic. Either way, a great album that sounded quite unique when it dropped.   Oct 16, 2022

Step down from the last release, losing their Doomy influence, this one is closer to pure Sludge Metal.   Oct 16, 2022

The band moves away from Death Doom further into Gothic Metal. This release is less gloomy and emotional, and therefore does less for me.   Oct 16, 2022

Not actually Doomy, Cathedral move on to full Stoner Metal here, and unfortunately the music is much more lackluster because of it.   Oct 16, 2022

Below average Atmospheric Black Metal made even worse with a few really bad interludes.   Oct 13, 2022

Is this considered Sabbath's worst album? It's not that bad. I'd definitely put it above Never Say Die, for example.   Oct 13, 2022

Some consider this among the worst albums ever released. It's bad - in fact, it's very rare I give such a low rating to a Thrash album - but it's nowhere near bottom of all time territory.   Oct 13, 2022

A very fun concept album. Not very consistent, but has plenty of great moments, and is one of the first "epic fantasy concept story" albums in that vein.   Oct 13, 2022

It ain't Thrash, but it's okay Groove Metal, on par with the last album. Not as bad as some claim, but not great either.   Oct 13, 2022

A couple good songs here, but overall it's too lethargic and boring. Not enough mood, atmosphere or emotion to justify the minimal sludgy songwriting.   Oct 13, 2022

Solid Death Metal. No more no less here.   Oct 13, 2022

Miserable collection of material. Many aren't even proper songs. The one "Sweet Dreams" is killer, nothing else here is worth your time.   Oct 13, 2022

Honestly? Wasn't a big fan of this one. Previous two LPs were fantastic, this didn't really do much for me. The covers are weaker, but even the original track, while an impressive feat, doesn't really justify over 23 minutes.   Oct 13, 2022

Solid EP from a band who never missed. Short but sweet.   Oct 13, 2022

Very mediocre Melodeath. I'm not impressed with their emotionless bland of melodeath filled with generic melodies so far. That doesn't make it bad... but among one of my favorite genres, weak.   Oct 13, 2022

Music here is good, but the production is terrible. Still a fine start for a demo.   Oct 13, 2022

Odd shift to technical Groove Metal. It's alright, but very one-note. Voivod are known for changing sound each album, but this bares no resemblance to any of their former incarnations.   Oct 13, 2022

Solid mix of Speed and classic Heavy Metal, but the Speed songs are the best. Also Power Metal influence running throughout.   Oct 13, 2022

Trouble unfortunately getting weaker with age. They've left behind their somber doominess in favor of stoner groove. I guesss they got addicted to drugs :(   Oct 11, 2022

Interesting piece. Tears is a worthwhile addition to any collection. The rest of the tracks are alright, but not really necessary.   Oct 11, 2022

Nasum are too noisy and chaotic for me. This EP in particular is a step down from their debut.   Oct 11, 2022

Opens with the best song of their career so far, but it's got too much pointless filler packed on the end.   Oct 11, 2022

A bit of an odd mix of Groove, Thrash, and Alternative. Not as bad as it's made out to be, but pales compared to their older works.   Oct 11, 2022

Substandard Blackened Thrash, some good riffs, but the production and songwriting aren't fantastic.   Oct 11, 2022

언제 들어도 좋은 심포닉 파워 메탈계의 명반   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

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.   6 days ago

평점을 안달았다니 이런. 데스메탈갓의 데스메탈, 앞으로도 추앙받을 진정한 마스터피스.   Mar 8, 2025

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

Awesome album one of my favourite thrash albums.   6 days ago

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

귀에 팍팍 꼿히는 순도 99,9%의 헤비메탈 깔끔한 믹싱 때문에 더 좋게 들린다.역시 앤디스냅!   Mar 8, 2025

현재 보유중인 유일한 브투털 데스 음반이다. 정확히는 그루브 브루털 데스 광폭하면서도 리듬감이 살아있어서 그나마 귀에 들어온다.   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

기계적이고 수학적인 연주에 감성이 첨가된   Mar 10, 2025
