Description

Remastered re-release of the second full-length album by the cult German Gothic Doom Metal band.
Bavarian quintet Darkseed have successfully married modern Death Metal with elements of Progressive Rock, 80's radio Metal, 70's riffery and Gothic overtones. It's a winning combination that makes for one of the most satisfying Metal albums in recent memory.
One of the first things you notice about Darkseed is their unique combination of vocal styles: clean, high-pitched male vocals give way to growling and thunderous bombast, followed in turn by a counterpoint female interlude. This arrangement is laid on top of some very complicated, very mature songwriting, which moves from acoustic guitar to keyboard to Metal guitar with fluid ease, and then back again. The lyrics are dreamy and ethereal, and are written with the flair of high poetry.
While Darkseed is certainly not the first band to add Gothic keyboards and female vocals to Heavy Metal, they may be the first to do it so well in the short-song format. These are three to four minute tunes, each of which carries the majesty of a church organ taken over by a madman and his guitar-wielding friends. Especially notable are "Self Pity Sick," a brilliant choice for the "Death...Is Just The Beginning" compilation, and "Senca", a strange song with a bizarre climactic vocal interplay. "Be Ever Heard," aside from an opening that makes you fear that someone has slipped a Ted Nugent disc in your player, features some vocals that you would swear belong to Geddy Lee.
It's a terribly diverse album, with a varied sound that makes it interesting to listen to countless times over!!

Description

First European re-release on CD of the seventh full-length album by the cult Norwegian Black Metal band.
Darkthrone began in the late 80's as a Thrash/Death Metal act and progressed through Technical Death/Doom Metal experimentation to become legends of the Black Metal world and one of the original leading bands of the Norwegian scene.
"Goatlord" is the title of what was to originally be Darkthrone’s second album. It was a rehearsal tape recorded instrumentally, between "Soulside Journey" and "A Blaze In The Northern Sky", containing songs which were scrapped after the band changed direction from being Death Metal to Black Metal. The vocals were added in 1994. Although Fenriz claims the album was released in 1997 (in the liner-notes on the LP version released in 2002), it was actually most likely released late in 1996.
The style followed very much in the vein of the debut, "Soulside Journey", with a mid-paced melodic Death Metal style. After the recording of the tracks in 1991, however, Darkthrone’s focus shifted towards Black Metal and the album was shelved, while work commenced on what was to be the Norwegian Black Metal milestone, "A Blaze In The Northern Sky", which did actually incorporate some parts from the "Goatlord" tracks.
This 2CD re-edition includes the bonus track "A Blaze in the Northern Sky" in its original form (1991 version) and a bonus commentary disc with Fenriz and Nocturno Culto reflecting on the tracks and their inspirations at the time of writing the material. Also features new cover artwork, as selected by the band, which they feel better represents the band’s vision!

Description

Remastered re-release of the second full-length album by American Christian Heavy Metal band.
Christian metal bands intentionally modeling their sound after that of their mainstream counterparts is not a recent phenomenon. The concept dates to the late eighties and Whitecross, who often invited comparison to Ratt as a result of Scott Wenzel’s gritty Stephen Pearcy-like vocal abilities. Trytan was next in line, highlighting a Rush influenced sound in which vocalist Larry Dean proved a near dead ringer for Geddy Lee. Finally, X-Sinner brought a strong affinity for AC/DC due to the vocal delivery of Dave Robbins closely resembling that of Brian Johnson. The trend continued into the nineties with David Benson, whose main calling card was a “Christian alternative to Ozzy”. True to form, his signature vocal style closely mirrors that of Ozzy Osbourne. The artist has released three albums: “Holy Psychotherapy” (1994), “Purpose Of The Cross” (1996) and “Premonition Of Doom” (1997). The David Benson back catalog, as one might imagine, has been out of print and hard to find for some time (“Holy Psychotherapy” was recently offered for $150 on eBay). Hence, a re-issue was long overdue, with Intense Millennium stepping to the plate in the spring of 2011 and making “Purpose Of The Cross” - re-mastered and with new album artwork - available on a limited basis (only 1000 copies printed).
“Purpose Of The Cross” is straight on Metal with some heavy Doom-ish Black Sabbath and early eighties Ozzy influences. Musically, there is a lot to like here. However, the key deciding factor comes down to not the fact the artist sounds like Ozzy but whether or not the songs are any good. And this is where Purpose Of The Cross succeeds in that at its best its songwriting is top notch and in no way “second rate” in comparison to the original.
Expanded re-edition contains new artwork and three bonus tracks from the artists 2002 session work with guitarist Mick Rowe (Tempest).
This CD is total musthave for all fans of Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbatn!!

Description

The third full-length album by British Progressive Black/Death Metal band.
De Profundis is a London-based band with a worldview firmly set within darkness and despair. They are very passionate in following their mission statement of fusing multiple sub-genres of Metal into a coherent whole. The core of "The Emptiness Within" is primarily based on Progressive Death Metal but there’s an abrasiveness to it that recalls 90s Death Metal, distinguishing it from the overly polished and quantized form that Progressive Metal bands are often tempted to take. There are also Black Metal influences lurking in the background, infusing the entire album with a Gothic atmosphere and coming to the fore in the blast beat and screech powered midsection of ‘Silent Gods’. At the same time, the band are willing to bring in elements from outside of metal like the piano and bass-led jazz interlude at the end of "Release". De Profundis handle their collection of disparate influences well, forging an approach that manages to contain surprisingly few internal contradictions.
The other side of the coin is that "The Emptiness Within" is surprisingly hard to listen to. Each track is full of impressive passages, but you need to push past the fact that they are all long, unconventional pieces of music before you can appreciate them. "Twisted Landscapes" stands out by being by far the most accessible song on the album, proving that the band can write simpler and catchier if they feel like without compromising their signature sound. It’s a triumph that the band resisted the urge to simplify the rest of their album in this manner, but it is also the factor most likely to turn listeners off their undoubtedly fine work.
Arran McSporran’s basswork is probably the most distinctive part of De Profundis’ sound. Rather than being a slave to the rhythm guitars his basslines are complex, exploring the entire fingerboard and regularly harmonising with the lead guitar. It’s a really interesting approach that adds a lot to the album, the three-guitar harmony midway through "This Wretched Plague" is proof enough of that.
De Profundis have been very successful with their third album despite being obviously limited by their budget. Intricate, Experimental and Progressive in the truest sense of the word, "The Emptiness Within" is hard work to begin with but rewards tenacious listeners with a dark, powerful experience that you would have to look hard for to find elsewhere!

Description

Re-release of the second full-length album by the cult Italian Thrash Metal band.
Apart from their debut full length album, Deathrage sees their sophomore (and final) full-length album getting reissue treatment as well by Punishment 18 Records. With the Italian Thrash outfit’s debut "Self Conditioned, Self Limited" leaving a rather deep impact with the speed and their references to classic Thrash bands such as Sadus and Dark Angel, it would be nice to hear the band’s progression and evolution that came with the introduction of new vocalist, Alex Nicolini.
Along with the inclusion of Nicolini, on "Down In The Depth Of Sickness", Deathrage ditches their classic Thrash Metal sound for one that is somewhat more Progressive than their previous material. For one, the band has taken down the speed by a notch, and from the melodic approach that is on opening track "D.I.T.D.O.S.", it sounds almost as though the band had taken a more traditional Heavy Metal route instead on "Down In The Depth Of Sickness", upping the heaviness for the reduction in speed on the album. From "Nobody Was Here" onwards, Nicolini’s vocal approach takes some getting used to, with his vocal being less gruff that that of his predecessor, with the aforementioned track even seeing him use a spoken style, though for the most part his vocals sound like a rather frustrated shout. Tracks such as "A Price Too High to Pay" further reinforce that touch of Heavy Metal with the riffs and the lead guitars, at the same time showing the light-hearted side of the band.
Deathrage has this time included some rather Progressive elements into their music, and this could be heard from the numerous rather sudden shifts in pace and tempo throughout the album. Furthermore, "Down In The Depth Of Sickness" also introduced a darker sound to Deathrage‘s music than before, and aside from the overall slower pace and heavier sound that the band utilised on the album, there is also the inclusion of sound and spoken samples at the background to create a lingering haunting atmosphere.
That said, there are still elements that are still reminiscent of their debut, and tracks like "Suicide Age" has a rather heavy Punk edge to it, with that simple single, repeating riff that lasts the entirety of the album and the gang-chants that accompany the track.
Re-edition features seven bonus demo tracks, and while the album tracks themselves might disappoint Thrashers that liked "Self Conditioned, Self Limited", these demo tracks manage to provide some salvation, having a sound closer to the band’s debut!
