Slaughter in the Vatican
level 9 Kildneybean   85/100
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
Scarlet Slaughterer
preview  Magnus preview  Scarlet Slaughterer (1989)
level 9 Kildneybean   80/100
Straightforward and deathly Deathrash record dripping with old school goodness. Frankly Pestilence is a bit more superior in this genre.   Aug 24, 2015
Demons and Wizards
level 9 Kildneybean   90/100
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
Gatecreeper

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
Growth Without End
preview  Pyrrhon preview  Growth Without End (2015)  [EP]
level 9 Kildneybean   90/100
Amazing Technical Death work, with some experimental avant-gardeness in the vein of Gorguts or Ulcerate.   Aug 24, 2015
Symbol of Salvation
level 9 Kildneybean   95/100
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
The Music of Erich Zann
level 9 Kildneybean   85/100
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
Roads to Judah
preview  Deafheaven preview  Roads to Judah (2011)
level 9 Kildneybean   70/100
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
Figure Number Five
preview  Soilwork preview  Figure Number Five (2003)
level 9 Kildneybean   80/100
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

Prophecies of a Dying World

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
Walls of Jericho
preview  Helloween preview  Walls of Jericho (1985)
level 9 Kildneybean   85/100
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

Heroes

level 9 Kildneybean   90/100
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
The Ten Commandments
level 9 Kildneybean   85/100
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
The Anthropocene Extinction
level 9 Kildneybean   95/100
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
Stained Class
preview  Judas Priest preview  Stained Class (1978)
level 9 Kildneybean   90/100
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
Cybernetic

level 9 Kildneybean   80/100
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
America Must Be Destroyed
level 9 Kildneybean   85/100
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
How the West Was Won
preview  Led Zeppelin preview  How the West Was Won (2003)  [Live]
level 9 Kildneybean   90/100
"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

A Flame to the Ground Beneath
level 9 Kildneybean   90/100
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
preview  Risk preview  The Reborn (1992)
level 9 Kildneybean   90/100
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
Odium

level 9 Kildneybean   85/100
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
Inheritance
level 9 Kildneybean   100/100
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
Hobbs' Angel of Death
level 9 Kildneybean   90/100
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

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

Appetite for Destruction
level 20 똘복이   90/100
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

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

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

Screaming for Vengeance
level 2 TELIA   90/100
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

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

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
