A Night of Terror Overcome
level 15 Cosmicism   75/100
Of course just a demo, but really decent, and it closes out with a fantastic conclusion. Placing the logo on that part of the cover photo though.........   Oct 15, 2024
Nordic Gothic
level 15 Cosmicism   85/100
This supergroup got together for a change of sub-genre. Though it's in the good-not-great range for me it is, at least, fully gothic metal. So much music in recent years is a bunch of other genres with a tiny bit of gothic metal in the mix, leaving a truly great style in a forgotten past. Cemetery Skyline came to our rescue in that regard with this really solid release.   Oct 15, 2024
Disease Is Relative
level 15 Cosmicism   80/100
Very very rough around the edges, but the in-your-face punkiness of this hardcore album comes through earnestly, and I can enjoy it on that level. The last track hits hard, and track 4 is a surprise funk song.   Oct 15, 2024

level 15 Cosmicism   70/100
The instrumentation is pro, and I see why some people enjoy this album, but the commercial feeling, the cringey cloying corniness, and the laughably terrible lyrics drag my score way way down. Before you even start paying attention to the words, just a look at track 4's title let's us find this album guilty of criminally low IQ and failure to care about how well written the songs are. On balance, the bad writing and good playing turn into a 70/average I guess.   Oct 15, 2024

Their 1997 album made me remember their name, and I loved this album even more. Heavy as all Hades and fully genuine. Strongly recommended.   Oct 15, 2024

level 15 Cosmicism   65/100
This one has the right title in the worst way. I find it painful how all of the very good deathrock songs on the album are followed by extremely annoying babbling spoken-word and pointless noises. I like Lovecraft too, and I noticed a reference to Poe in there, but this is terrible. Actually, it's about 60% good music and 40% unlistenable garbage. I was really disappointed.   Oct 15, 2024
Skeptics Apocalypse
level 15 Cosmicism   85/100
I'm trying to get a better feel for the beginning of speed metal, and with this album I found an enjoyable way to broaden my horizons. The worst thing I can say is that the tones and the feelings in the vocals get a bit samey. Still good music by this LA band.   Oct 15, 2024

I find their first album substantially better, but this album with its famous title was better than I expected, still good riffs and quite streamlined songwriting. I now find I have a good reason to celebrate the album that made the words 'black metal' so important to music history.   Oct 15, 2024

Solid from start to finish, these songs are well written and loads of fun. There was a certain genius element about how this stuff surely made pathetically closed-minded old people shake in fear and imagine ridiculous conspiracies of all teenagers transforming into murderous satanists, when the whole thing was actually uses very good humor.   Oct 15, 2024

그간 발매된 Cavalera 의 리레코딩 앨범들을 들으며 상기한 것은 역시 전성기 시절 오리지날 앨범에서 막스의 보컬이 매우 취향이었다는 점과 세풀투라 초기앨범들을 좋아하는 이유의 반 이상은 된다는 점.   Oct 15, 2024

level 15 Cosmicism   75/100
It's pretty good. The first 2 songs, really good and reminiscent of AC/DC, had me really excited. I found a lot of the rest of the album just mediocre though. On the painfully corny 3rd track, the singer's approach to vocals just doesn't work. Not the best side of glam metal, despite the massive commercial success.   Oct 15, 2024

The attitude & irreverence are tons of fun, and the music itself is quite good. Some like this a bit more a than me, but I agree this album gives a much better impression of glam metal than generations after the 80s tend to have.   Oct 15, 2024

I was really blown away by this excellent album. The band has a long history and started off this great with their debut but I never even knew they existed. I get the feeling this is seen as an essential for 80s thrash, and I fully agree.   Oct 15, 2024

Ken mode surprised me with this early album - I like it slightly more then their good 2022 & 2023 ones. The singer knows how to scream bloody murder at the right time and then just shut up when we don't need vocals. So many vocalists should finally learn this lesson.   Oct 15, 2024

I'm really looking forward to the new release next month, so I had to listen to something by Djevel. I was not disappointed. This album sounds as great as the cover art. I'm picking up on some 1st wave influences mixed in to the mostly 2nd wave soundscape.   Oct 15, 2024

신화 속 폭력적인 이면에 대한 감정적 해석의 전달. 에픽한 소재들을 다루면서도 그것에 매몰되어 주객이 전도되지 않게끔 느낌과 표현에 철저히 집중한 듯하며, 그런 면모가 감정적이되 냉철하게 와닿는다.   Oct 31, 2024

85-90, 예전에 빽판으로 즐기던 음반. 운이 좋게 다시 시디로 구입하게 들어보게 되었다. 지금 이 시점에서는 좋게 들렸고 시원시원했다. 녹음은 거칠긴 하나 가끔 너무 갑갑한 믹싱이 되어 있는 메탈음반이 많은데 차라리 이런 식으로 만드는게 낫다 싶다. 1,2집도 언제인가는 구해지지 않을까 생각해본다.   Oct 30, 2024

어쿠스틱 기타, 첼로, 플루트 등을 이용하여 녹음한 어쿠스틱 사운드의 작품이다. 그러나 표현하고자 하는 사운드의 방향성 자체는 무겁고 진지하다. 멜로디가 약간 서늘한 냉기를 품고 있다. 더운 여름에 들으면 시원함을 느낄 수도 있지만 대체로 가을의 분위기에 잘 어울린다. 커버아트와 음악의 매칭이 절묘하다.   Nov 4, 2024

90-95. 이 시기의 블가 앨범들은 다 좋은 듯. hansi의 보컬을 더 느끼고 싶어서 사모으기 시작한 앨범인데 그렇다고 나랑 맞는 음악을 하는 밴드가 아닐 수 있었지만 지금까지 몇번들어본 결과는 만족스러운 행진 중이다. the eldar같은 곡은 지금의 나에게는 최고의 곡. 인트로+본곡 같은 스타일로 중복이 되는데 큰 단점같지는 않다. 조화롭게 잘 넘어갔다.   Nov 8, 2024

라센은 일본 빅터에서 받아 동일하게 12번 "Rainy Nights"이 더 들어가 있다. 앙그라 초기는 의외로 많이 듣지 않아 생각보다 익숙하지 않은 면이 있다. 현재는 이 정도 점수를 주고 다음에 또 감상하면서 고쳐보도록 하겠다   Oct 28, 2024

Their most representative album of the eighties, full of innovation and class, with forceful themes and a benchmark in style for the hard rock genre, in fact it is their best-selling work to date! My personal precise rating is (94/100) Faves: Criyng In The Rain and Don´t Turn Away!   Oct 30, 2024

80-90. 메킹 커멘트를 보고 얼라이브를 베스트 대용으로 해도 된다는 의견에 2,3를 사게 되었는데 1,3에만 rock and roll all nite가 있다는 것을 다시 여기서도 알립니다. 이번에 사게된 앨범이 일본반 shm-cd 규격인데 음질이 나쁜게 아니지만 2보다는 살짝 거친게 아닌가 싶다. 아직까지는 얼라이브 시리즈+일반 스튜디오 베스트 조합으로 끝낼 생각.   Nov 6, 2024

훌륭한 데뷰. 1집을 꼭 사야 할까라는 생각으로 살다가 이제야 얻어걸린 느낌으로 사게 되었다. 물론 1집을 필수라고 여기지 않았지만 후회도 없다. 보컬이 멤버들보다 나이가 10여살 많은 걸로 기억하고 게디리의 좀 더 듣기 좋은 버전이라고 생각이 든다. 다만 믹싱이 마음에 들지 않아서 살짝 밋밋하다. 보컬과 드럼이 살짝 뒤로 간 느낌.리믹스가 절실하나 과연?   Nov 7, 2024
