CD

The fourth full-length studio album by legendary Finnish Operatic/Symphonic Rock/Metal singer and she’s band.
"Colours In The Dark" is riskier than Tarja’s previous three solo albums. The album is a huge panorama of Operatic Metal, where some artistic experimentation is attempted, but repeatedly crushed under the album’s bombast. The dramatic scope of the strings and choirs, guitars and woodwinds, arrangement and high-gloss presentation is truly wondrous.
Tarja Turunen’s voice is a force of nature, dominant and dominating. The former lead singer for Nightwish fills her lungs and turns "Colours In The Dark" into the fury of the four winds. From the bombastic opener “Victim of Ritual” to the exquisite closer “Medusa”, in which she shares her hurricane-proof microphone with Blue October’s Justin Furstenfeld, "Colours In The Dark" is a colossal battle royal of operatic soprano, keyboard orchestra and Alex Schlopp’s ENGL amplifier madness. 
On "Colours In The Dark", the guitars are to die for, so to speak. The rhythm section is perfection and above all, Christian Kretschmar’s keyboards are magical. There are many instances where the orchestral emulation invokes the old question, is it The Hamburg Philharmonic or is it a bank of Access synthesizers?
The name of the album, as the cover image, came as a metaphor from the idea that life has a large range of colours and the dark absorbs all of them, containing every colour. Titles of the album's songs were revealed from times to times through Tarja's blog, like she did with "My Winter Storm" (2007). The album's name came out of the song "Until Silence". This is the third time the album's name came out of one of the songs. The artwork and some promotional pictures for this album were taken mainly in India during the What Lies Beneath World Tour in 2011. 
This is definitely one of the brightest albums in Rock in 2013 and proves to be a milestone for Heavy Symphonic Rock.
The Special Edition includes a download code for the studio version of "Into the Sun", special designed slip case, hard-book cover and 40-page booklet.

The sixth full-length studio album by legendary Finnish Gothic Orchestral/Symphonic soprano singer.
It’s also the second classical and Christmas album of Tarja.
While Tarja Turunen is well known for wedding the Operatic to Symphonic Metal, she forgoes the latter entirely on "From Spirits And Ghosts (Score For A Dark Christmas)". Right in time for the holiday season, Tarja delivers the soundtrack to a darker Christmas – an exploration of the other side of Christmas - the Christmas of the lonely people and the missing ones.
Recorded during the summer of 2017 in the Caribbean, mixed in Texas, and mastered in New York, the set includes 11 classic carols and other songs associated with the season as well as a new track recorded in the same manner. Turunen produced the collection with the American, Emmy Award-winning film score composer Jim Dooley (who also handled arrangements), and British producer Tim Palmer (Pearl Jam, David Bowie, U2, the Cure, etc).
Though Turunen's voice is characteristically crystalline, the Gothic orchestral treatments of the traditional holiday material, beginning with downright spooky album-opener "O Come, O Come, Emmanuel", are sometimes akin to the gloomy and monumental atmospheres created by Dead Can Dance. This feel saturates other tunes here such as the heartbreakingly lovely "Pie Jesu", the wildly dramatic "O Tannenbaum", and amazingly enough, the album's greatest surprise "Feliz Navidad". The melancholy in the relatively sparse charts on "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" creates an even greater sense of intimacy, while closer "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" is drenched in echo and electronics aside a celeste and chamber instruments, creating an eerie feel to send the album off. "Together," the lone new track, is a bittersweet seasonal song with Turunen fronting a full chorus, as triangles, swelling strings, and tympanies fill up the space behind and around her – it's as lovely as it is sad. The outlier is the hymn "Amazing Grace", stitched together with pulsing synths, low-end brass, and reverb before the entire orchestra floods the foreground.
Somehow, Turunen's aesthetic principles shoehorns the tune to fit seamlessly into the mix. Given the absence of Metal on "Spirits And Ghosts", it was interesting to see how it sits with her legions of fans. At all, the album has been warmly acclaimed by critics and fans alike, who have noted the dark twist Turunen achieved on the album and the combination of different languages.
With the album release, comes also Tarja Turunen's first graphic novel, "From Spirits And Ghosts (Novel For A Dark Christmas)". The 40-page novel is about the world of dark Christmas, scripted by Peter Rogers with accompanying art by Conor Boyle. The "novel for a dark Christmas" revolves around Tarja's two characters, the dark and light one, bringing together lonely souls during the festive season.

The second live album by legendary Finnish Operatic/Symphonic Rock/Metal singer, and she’s band.
As we all know, Nightwish and Tarja decided to break up. The Finish singer with the enormous voice decided to continue releasing solo albums - four up till now. Next to those long plays, she also had two live releases for now.
Knowing that her husband, Marcelo Cabuli, is from Argentina, it isn't a too big step to understand that this country became almost a second home for Tarja. And what is also more obvious than recording a show in Buenos Aires. The concert from this live release took place in 2011. It was March 27 when Tarja performed a show in the Luna Park in Buenos Aires
"Luna Park Ride" is a documentation of Tarja's live skills, and is definitely a collector's piece. Tarja performs her songs sovereignly live on stage. Whether they are solo songs like the powerful "I Walk Alone" and "I Feel Immortal" or even some Nightwish songs like "Stargazers" or "Wishmaster" - she always gets the crowd going with her flesh-crawling voice and this record might be also of interest for old Nightwish fans who still mourn her leaving of the popular Finnish Symphonic Metal band as she remained in a similar field musically, being more Rock and less Epic than the band that made her famous, though. 
If you've ever been to a Tarja live show and loved it, this is a great way to keep the memories alive. "Luna Park Ride" consists of two CDs, featuring a recording of her live show in Buenos Aires' Luna Park and recordings of various festivals she performed at in Europe. It was mixed by Tim Palmer, who has found the perfect balance between keeping the recordings organic and polished. These two CDs makes something special and exciting for fans of Tarja and female fronted bombastic Metal.

The second full-length studio album by legendary Finnish Symphonic Metal/Rock band.
Tarja Turunen is the exceptionally gifted singer who rose to prominence as the voice and the face of Finnish outfit Nightwish. With her unique tones and striking stage presence having played a key role in making Nightwish a major, multi-platinum success. The gifted Finnish vocalist and multi-instrumentalist unveiled her wildly-anticipated solo debut CD/DVD set, interfusing the worlds of Metal, Hard Rock, Opera, and Atmospheric soundtrack.
This is the first album to consist mainly of new and original songs specifically written by or for Turunen. The album was released by Universal Music on 19 November 2007 in Finland, on 2 January 2008 in South America and on February 26 in North America and in the United Kingdom was also released a special version limited in 300 copies.
The album was recorded with the collaboration of various artists, including cellist Martin Tillman, guitarist Kiko Loureiro and composer James Dooley, with Turunen also playing additional keyboards. The album contains several music styles including Alternative Rock and Classical music, and it was recorded in different studios in Finland, Brazil, Ireland, USA, Spain, Switzerland, Germany and the Czech Republic.
"My Winter Storm" has sold Platinum in Finland and Double Platinum in Russia, and also reached Tarja's first Gold Disc in her entire career in the Czech Republic; the album spent two and a half months on the Official Finnish Albums Chart, reaching the highest position right during the first week, also spending four months on German Top 100, two months on Swiss Top 100 and also a full month on the Austrian Top 40, ending 2007 at 11th position on Billboard's Top 100 European albums with more than 500 000 copies sold.
To promote the album, Tarja played the Storm World Tour that took place from Berlin on November 25, 2007, to London on October 19, 2009.
Limited to 2000 copies worldwide, Deluxe Edition includes 3 Extra Sons & Bonus DVD.

The first studio mini-album by legendary Finnish Operatic/Symphonic Rock/Metal soprano singer and she’s band.
“The Brightest Void” is the second part of the sixth full-length album, “The Shadow Self”, although, chronologically, it was released before “The Shadow Self”. It has to be considered as prequel because, musically speaking, it carries on from where the second full-length left off, keeping the same vibe of diverse sounds and featuring more guest vocalists, such as Michael Monroe (ex-Hanoi Rocks) and Chad Smith (Red Hot Chili Peppers) playing drums.
“An Empty Dream” is the highlight of the album, with an ethereal arrangement contrasted by Tarja’s warm, emotional vocals. The album also includes a new mix of Tarja’s duet with Within Temptation, “Paradise (What About Us)”, but the absolute surprise of this release is definitely the cover of James Bond’s “Goldfinger”, originally sung by legendary singer Shirley Bassey. The arrangement is absolutely fantastic, and Tarja’s voice shifts from lower notes to the heavier moments of the song with great confidence.
Overall, Tarja demonstrated that she is not bound by genre labels and that she can elegantly put her own spin on anything she sings. This release is a challenging work that never gets boring or repetitive; a treat for fans and a statement for anyone who ever doubted Tarja’s skills.
Beside Within Temptation, album guests list features: Michael Monroe (ex- Hanoi Rocks), Chad Smith (Red Hot Chili Peppers), Toni Turunen, Mike Terrana, Alex Scholpp (Sinner), Max Lilja (ex- Apocalyptica, Hevein), Julián Barrett (Asspera, Barilari & Lörihen), Kevin Chown (Edwin Dare & Mike Terrana), Doug Wimbish (Living Colour), Torsten Stenzel (York, ex- Tarja), Peter Barrett, Christian Kretschmar, Bart Hendrickson, Guillermo De Medio, Luis Conte, Mervi Myllyoja, Fernando Scarcella, Tim Palmer, Nicolas Polo, Jim Dooley, Miguel Ricardo Borzi.
Track "An Empty Dream" is originally Main Theme from "Corazón Muerto" ("Dead Heart");
Track "House Of Wax" is originally by Paul McCartney;
Track "Goldfinger" is originally Main Theme from "James Bond".

The eighth full-length album by the cult Finnish Heavy/Power Metal band.
The follow-up to "Crows Fly Black" from Nightwish bass player (and singer) Marco Hietala and his brother Zachary!
Finland, like Sweden and Norway, is known for having an abundance of Death Metal and Black Metal, as well as plenty of Folk Metal, Gothic Metal, Doom Metal, and Alternative Metal. A variety of Punk-influenced Metal styles that either didn't exist before the '90s or didn't fully blossom until the '90s can be found in Finland, but Sweden's neighbor to the east has its classicists as well - many of them Power Metal revival bands. However, it would be inaccurate to describe Tarot as part of Europe's Power Metal revival movement because they were around before so many of the headbanging retro-classicists who emerged in the '90s and 2000s. Tarot have been banging their heads since 1982 (back when they were called Purgatory), and a strong '80s mindset prevails throughout "Gravity Of Light" even though this 49-minute CD is a 2010 release. "Gravity of Light" is stubbornly oblivious to post-‘80s developments in Metal, opting for a melodic but Hard-Rocking Power Metal approach that recalls the glory days of Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, and Ronnie James Dio. Tarot have been accused of being Judas Priest clones; lead singer Marco Hietala does, in fact, sound a lot like Rob Halford. But listen to "Caught in the Deadlights", "Sleep in the Dark", or "Satan Is Dead" closely, and you won't hear an exact replica of Judas Priest's songs. Elements of Maiden and Dio are present as well. So even though Tarot are derivative, it's a mistake to think they are making a conscious effort to sound exactly like Judas Priest or anyone else.
Overall, this is a decent effort - not a masterpiece, but an appealing example of Tarot's ability to combine melody and aggression. And even though "Gravity Of Light" isn't trying to reinvent the wheel, Power Metal diehards should at least be aware of this long-running but underexposed Nordic band!!

The fourth full-length album by Russian Death/Black Metal band.
TarthariA are a Russian band who has been around for a dozen years with 10 releases, including four albums.
The new studio album of TarthariA mingles powerful sound, drive and high quality of sounding together - all that listener needs. This is the album, where Death, Black, Thrash Metal finally met and started hating each other...  Tracks are notable for variety, you will not find of the same kind. Eight combative charges, which will blow your mind and mutilate your ears...
Very good and very solid album from this band, probably the best album of TarthariA for today. Recommended for all fans of Death/Black Metal at it best way!!

Re-release of the twelfth full-length studio and the fourth live albums by the legendary American Hard Rock guitarist/vocalist.

The name of “Craveman” album is a portmanteau of the words "crave" and "caveman". The album continues the trend, started in the mid-1990s, of Nugent returning to the rawer, Harder-Rocking sound that made him famous in the 1970s. This stands in sharp contrast to the Synth-Pop of his 1980s work, and the romantic AOR power-ballads of his early 1990s band Damn Yankees. This album also contains some material from an unreleased Damn Yankees album. This is his fiercest effort in decades and certainly his heaviest ever. "Craveman" arguably constitutes the first truly worthy new entry to the Ted Nugent discography in well nigh 20 years!!

"Full Bluntal Nugity" was recorded on New Year's Eve (12/31/2000) at Ted Nugent's annual Whiplash Bash in Detroit, MI. Like "Double Live Gonzo!" recorded over 20 years before it, "Full Bluntal Nugity" is a concert recording that features the Motor City madman's biggest and best '70s Arena Rock hits. Recorded live in the guitarist's hometown of Detroit, this collection also includes plenty of Nugent's fast-talking concert banter. Not only is Nugent in fine performance form, but his accompaniment - courtesy of drummer Tommy Aldridge (Whitesnake, Ozzy Osbourne) and bass player Marco Mendoza - is also top-notch. The recording is clean and the performances are surprisingly energetic. Listening to Nugent as he blazes his way into the fifth decade of his performing career is a bit of a wonder, as songs like the epic "Great White Buffalo" and "Wang Dang Sweet Poontang" sizzle with the man's hard-edged guitar crackle and type-A vocal blasts. Classic records like "Free for All" and "Cat Scratch Fever" from Nugent's peak '70s solo era are perhaps the best source for new listeners looking to get into the man's music. But hardcore fans and especially completists will get plenty of kicks out of "Full Bluntal Nugity"!!

The thirteenth full-length album by the legendary American Hard Rock guitarist/vocalist.
Kicking off with a classic Nugent riff and a basic, but enjoyable, chorus on the title track, one can hear what a fine job producer Jack Blades, in cooperation with Nugent, has done with the release. Good instrument separation and a biting guitar tone make a big difference. This time with bassist Barry Sparks (Blades plays some bass as well) and drummer Tommy Clufetos, there are numerous, up-tempo boogie scorchers, this time with a decidedly old R&B feel to the guitar work on several tracks. The driving and catchy "Still Raising Hell" and the frantic tempo and typical Nuge lyrical fare of "Funk U", as well as "Aborigine", "Bridge Over Troubled Daughters", "Stand", and "Broadside" all burn with Hard Eock fire and plenty of Nugent guitar histrionics. As for "Girl Scout Cookies", the down 'n' dirty rhythm is tolerable, but the lyrics are absolutely horrible. The 40-year-old tune is given a heavy makeover, but still sounds as melodically stimulating as the original. Rather than being butchered, the new rendition works exceedingly well. With a stuttering, R&B shuffle and a catchy chorus, "Geronimo & Me" is a keeper, as is the light 'n' bluesy "Spirit of the Buffalo". Always a master of the instrumental, the creeping tempo and slide licks of "EagleBrother", and the straight, slow-burn blues of "Lay with Me" rounds out the batch.
This is the same old Hard Rock that Nugent has been cranking out for over three decades now, and it sure sounds like he's been doing it that long, as the riffs are recycled, the production is too clean, and the performances too professional. All this sterile Hard Rock only draws attention to what Nugent is saying, and this collection of bad sex, hammy patriotism, and Wild West rhapsodies does indeed act as some kind of grenade - it explodes the myth that Nugent is some kind of reformed red state hero, revealing him just as the dirty old man he's always been!
Album sells 3600 copies in its first week, landing it at #186 on the Billboard 200.
For all his lunatic rants and self-delusional, right wing diatribes, Ted Nugent can still play a mean guitar in a way that only he can. Fortunately, he woke up some years ago and started realizing that an improvement in songwriting was necessary to make his albums anything more than guitar wankery with slapped-together songs. The bottom line is that "Love Grenade" is a good Hard Rock release!!

Re-release of the eleventh full-length album by the legendary American Hard Rock guitarist/vocalist.
This album marked the return of Nugent's original sound of Hard Rock and not Pop Metal. "Spirit Of The Wild" ranks as one of Ted Nugent's finest moments because it cuts away the filler and keeps the wildman's tendency for indulgence in check. A fair amount of the material does concern itself with the wilderness, which fits right in with his '90s reinvention as a conservative family-values spokesman. That doesn't mean that it's a tame record - it means that Nugent sounds committed again, since that passion for hunting and family flows throughout his performance.
"Spirit of the Wild" is the theme song for Ted Nugent's hunting TV show Spirit of the Wild. "Fred Bear" is a tribute to the bowman Fred Bear.

Re-release of the seventh album ‘2001 from this cult Colombian Gothic Doom Metal band.
Invoices we’ll find an excellent effort of pure doom metal, plenty of strength and melody, sounding mature, personal and very well played and arranged; for this recording even they used a hall orchestra and the album has been mastered in New York at the Sterling Sound Studio by George Marino (Metallica, Aerosmith, Type O Negative).
A conceptual album with a history of love and war that goes around ten chapters of passion and misery, in short music full of life. Here we have brand new artwork, one live track, one video clip and two live videos as extras.
Among their influences we could name to diverse bands such as Moonspell, Metallica, Paradise Lost, Rammstein, Pink Floid or Black Sabbath. If you are into doom or melodic rock-metal in general don’t miss this, cause is an album worthy of being near the classics of the genre.

Official re-release of the debut full-length album by the American Drone/Doom Metal band.
Disturbing, gritty, utter heavy and dark Extreme Doom Metal.
This offshoot of the brilliant Ice Dragon dwells in the Lovecraftian abyss. 11+ minute opener “The Blackness of My Soul Will Be So Great as to Make the Night Weep” sets the mood immediately with lo-fi menace, tortured vocals and repetitive riffs that recall a slow death march. The songs never get boring because they suck you into the world they have created. Psychedelic flourishes weave their way throughout with bottomless reverb and echoes from another dimension.
This is the musical equivalent of a morbidly bad trip, but if you’re going off the deep end the soundtrack might as well kick ass! Now be very afraid!!

The third full-length album by Dutch Raw Black/Death band.
Raw Black Metal with great wealth musical and deliberately unstructured riffs.
Terdor is a two-member band from the Netherlands, which exists since 2005 and they have released until today two EPs, two splits and three full length albums. "Levi II".
The first of the four tracks that are contained in the album, begins with a melodic introduction played by the piano, peaceful and melancholic, without portending what is going to follow. In the forty minutes that the album lasts, the band unfolds its war-talent by presenting harsh, frozen, violent and more than anything else warlike Black Metal, clearly inspired by the Scandinavian scene. The riffs mainly are of fast speed, harsh and frozen, tremolo riffs, but of course with the passages of medium and slow speed being present too, some of them heavy and harsh, else more atmospheric. The sound that Terdor puts out as also the style of their compositions is warlike and violent sometimes it reminds of Immortal, some other times of Marduk but it has the personal elements of the band and that makes the result very interesting.
The tracks are long regarding their duration exemplified by the epic "Levi II" which last nineteen minutes. Despite their size, the tracks are very interesting and not tedious at all. The most important thing in order to achieve that is the structure of the tracks, with the changes in the riffing, in the speed and in the atmosphere they achieve not to tire the listener and to maintain his interest at the same level throughout the entire album. The guitars have a harsh but clean sound and they put out the passion and the intensity of the compositions. The bass is clearly audible, it has beautiful lines and it fills the sound well. The drums mostly hold the pace but without lacking in powerful turnings, fast outbursts or technical moments. The piano is used only in introductions and passages, it doesn’t participate actively into the compositions, but there also has been done a very serious work. The vocals are harsh whispering Black Metal vocals, quite monotonous, without many changes, they become somehow tedious in some parts. Very good production and mixture. All the instruments are audible and the sound is thick and solid.
"Levi II" offers forty minutes of well-played and inspired, warlike Black Metal. The band has worked enough for its compositions and has achieved to deliver a quite good result. The band shows its passion for music and for sure its talent by creating compositions that on one hand they don’t hide the band’s influences but on the other hand they have a personal identity and character. "Levi II" is a quite good album and it worth to listen and buy it!!

The debut full-length album by the Polish Modern Progressive Metal band.
Terminal play an ambitious style of Progressive Metallic Rock with Industrial sounds, Fragile Pop hooks and big choruses. While executed with typical Polish flair and finesse "Tree Of Lie" sounds too calculated and market conscious to be labeled as spontaneous or enthusiast.
Obviously the instrumental skill of this outfit is high and advanced, but beyond this skill Terminal comes from the wrong background to break into mainstream market. For the mainstream Pop market this record will be too difficult to comprehend, for the Progressive Rock market this is too Metallic and Underground and for the Metal market Terminal just isn't extreme and brutal enough.
The album features guest appearance of Virgil Donati (Planet X, Derek Sherinian Band) on drums. Several songs also include saxophone, violin or cello sounds.
Cover artwork was designed by Mentalporn (Deathstars, Behemoth, Darzamat). CD version will be released in digipak format.
Fantastic Prog/Nu Metal hope!
