Good ol' Thrash Metal. Lots of classic Thrash Metal albums/bands sound the same, but also are mostly good. The pros and cons of OS stuff. Aug 24, 2015


A relatively new and fresh sound! Haven't checked out these guys even though they were constantly being praised. I deeply regret my fallacy. Aug 24, 2015


Egregiously brutal and slamming Brutal Death Metal work that almost mashes your prefrontal lobe into gooey oatmeal. Cliche tho. Nothing new. Aug 24, 2015


Straightforward and deathly Deathrash record dripping with old school goodness. Frankly Pestilence is a bit more superior in this genre. Aug 24, 2015


Finger lickin' good Hard Rock album from the early days of the genre. What more can I say? It's filled with amazing songs, all a must-listen. Aug 24, 2015


Great work, somewhere on the verge between Death Metal and Grindcore. A monumental album regarding the genre of Grindcore. Aug 24, 2015


Ho-lee! Didn't expect this album to be THIS good. Really brutal and captivating. Try to enjoy this album doing nothing else. Aug 24, 2015


Amazing Technical Death work, with some experimental avant-gardeness in the vein of Gorguts or Ulcerate. Aug 24, 2015


Truly amazing pure Heavy Metal work. The riffs are simply blissful, the vocals are magnificent, and the powerfulness they pull out is darn good. Aug 24, 2015


A unique take on Thrash Metal. Haven't heard anything like this around the block. I've no idea on who Erich Zann is but man he's a great writer. Aug 22, 2015


Decent work of ???. Replacing the question marks with actual semantic words will be a pain because Deafheaven's music is something hard to define. It's... just decent, ok? Aug 22, 2015


Not exactly my cup of tea, but I'm pretty sure this album's very well made. The heavy parts are aptly presented alongside more lighter, melodic bits. (Which is what Soilwork do all the time, right? So in a nutshell, they are once again good at something they're already a master of.) Aug 22, 2015


Top Notch Melodeath Record, man! The melodies are so well written, it feels as this album is encroaching the realm of magic. Aug 22, 2015


Talk about some good thrashy Death Metal albums, this one's up on the list. Lots of top notch riffs (actually pretty intricate) showcased here. Aug 22, 2015


More of a Speed/Thrash hybrid album than Power Metal, with a bunch of excellent riffs. That's about it. Short as it is, it's a pretty accurate description of Helloween's first effort. Aug 22, 2015


This. This is Power Metal. It consolidates all the power and ardor one can possibly have, and blends it with great sing-along melodies and interesting war lyrics. Aug 22, 2015


A great Death Metal release, along the lines of Morbid Angel and Autopsy. You can expect some quality riffs on this one. Aug 22, 2015


A mindblowing release. Of course, the Deathgrindy aspects of this album is absolutely brutal and amazing. But what tops that are the overly versatile vocals. I don't know what Travis Ryan does with his throat, but he sure exploits the heck out of it. Aug 22, 2015


Amazing guitar playing by Glenn Tipton and K.K. Downing, plus the great vocals by Rob Halford. Kerry King said to a magazine the other day that this was his favorite Judas Priest album. I totally get his point. Aug 22, 2015


What insightful, philosophically esoteric lyrics! I'll give you an excerpt: "Wree wree wree wree wree, wree, wree, wreeeee..."-"Death in Acidbath". Absolutely profound, isn't it? Aug 22, 2015


A Crossover album that has a lot to offer. The humorous lyrics that throw a sucker punch at social issues and politics are just a portion of the experience. Aug 22, 2015


"The" Zeppelin Live album. Period.
The energy torrenting out from all four members' prowesses answeres the whole question of how they became the greatest band of the '70s. Aug 22, 2015


Love this album, even though there's close to no conherence. Though the songs don't make up a whole body, each of the songs are very well made. Afterall, they were Led Zeppelin. Aug 22, 2015


Another album as solid as the mineral consisted of carbon atoms forming covalent bonds with each other in the shape of a regular tetrahedron. Actually, scientific terms can't describe the amazingness of this album. Go listen to this one after exploring all three Dio era Rainbow albums. Aug 22, 2015


One of the very solid Power Metal albums of the 2000s. It feels like the melodies and guitar sounds serve as an addendum, making the powerful but high pitched vocals lot more protruding. Aug 21, 2015


The Reborn sounds like Agent Orange eta Sodom playing Megadeth songs. The old man sitting on top of a thousand nails tell you how painful it is to miss this album. Or does he? Not sure. I think those monks meditate in order not to feel pain. Whatever, man! Aug 21, 2015


A slightly different approach compared to their three releases before this one. Feels like a more mainstream Death Metal sound. It doesn't really matter though, because they advance at it once again. Aug 21, 2015


One of THE BEST brutal Thrash albums I've heard. This album just makes you nuts, and so mentally exhausted after listening. Just like how you get so tired after having the best sexy time ever. Aug 21, 2015


Brutal Slayer-style Thrash, done really good. The amazing riffs go well with the bashing drums, like two peas in a pod. Two l's in Dark Tranquillity. Two members in the Black Metal band Darkthrone! Aug 21, 2015


A buzzzzzing Swedish Death album. Be wary of lil' shrapnels bouncing off the blade, as those rascals make a giant scab on your skin. Aug 21, 2015

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. 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



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


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


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



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
