CD

The seventh full-length album by the legendary American Epic Heavy/Power Metal band.
With a 28-minute opening track, slightly expanded lyrical themes and some of the best rhythmic onslaughts recorded by Manowar, "The Triumph Of Steel" is perhaps the band's finest '90s offering! While never abandoning their myopic swords-and-sorcery themed Power Metal, Manowar had evolved musically during their first decade together and the music of this 1992 release benefits from what must have been countless hours woodshedding extreme musical figures. Tighter than a tumble-dried loin cloth, the standout track "Ride the Dragon" is an exceptionally fast number that signifies a commitment toward high-speed compositions on the part of bassist/songwriter Joey DeMaio. There is absolutely no subtlety or irony to Manowar or their cartoon Metal and many listeners will have trouble taking either seriously. Their credo, "Death to false Metal" and similar messages are constantly repeated, and unlike other comic book outfits like Gwar, Manowar aren't hamming it up for laughs. They're dead serious. While it's understandable that audiences and critics refuse to even acknowledge Manowar's heavy-handed rallying cries (in America that is, while the band is often given favorable notices in the European metal press), there is also something admirable about musicians so committed to what they do, even if it is silly. Loyalty is a rare human attribute and on "The Triumph Of Steel" Manowar demonstrate plenty of it to their fans, their craft, and themselves. When considering this veteran outfit, listeners and critics fond of heavy music might pause their snickering for a moment and give Manowar a little credit. For decades the band worked for an ideal, not fashion or money. In so doing, they helped define the bizarre edge of Metal's amorphous but very real culture!
It is the only Manowar album to feature guitarist David Shankle and drummer Kenny Earl "Rhino" Edwards.

The fifth full-length studio album by legendary Swedish Black Metal band.
"Nightwing" did not offer something completely new, but its songs kept firing full blast and they did not lack of variety. Nobody could blame Marduk for delivering just more of the same.
It was recorded and mixed at The Abyss between October and November 1997.
The theme of the album was "Blood", as the band's following studio albums "Panzer Division Marduk" would be "War", and "La Grande Danse Macabre" would be "Death", forming a trilogy of "Blood, War and Death" - Marduk's vision of what Black Metal is.

"Smells Like Children" is a second full-lenght album by band Marilyn Manson. Various contributions by engineer and Skinny Puppy producer Dave Ogilvie, Nine Inch Nails keyboardist Charlie Clouser and new material by the band resulted in an eclectic and unusual combination of material. The album was produced by Trent Reznor and Marilyn Manson and represents an era of the band full of drugs, abuses, tours, sound experimentations and is also a reference to the movie “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang”. All the ideas and tracks for this EP were created and composed during the “Portrait of an American Family tour” and is also the first Marilyn Manson work that features Ginger Fish on drums. Marilyn Manson referred to this album as "An album that looks like an album for children that is not for children". On the bottom edge of the disc you can see the words "Keep this and all drugs away from small children". A number of covers are included on the album, most famous of which is the band's cover of Eurythmics' "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)", which helped to skyrocket the band into the mainstream. The other covers on the album are the Patti Smith song "Rock N Roll Nigger" and Screamin' Jay Hawkins' "I Put a Spell on You". Manson's recording of "I Put a Spell on You" was also featured on the soundtrack for the David Lynch film “Lost Highway”.
The album has sold over 1.3 million copies in the U.S.

The fifth full-length album by the German Metalcore band.
German panzer Maroon return in full swing with their heaviest, most diverse and visionary opus to date! Driven by the bands steadfast dedication to honest, vigorous and timeless Metal sounds, "Order" marks the culmination of the bands most creative and focused song-writing phase. Despite being known as a kick-ass, relentlessly touring act from tours/shows with the likes of Samael, Obituary, Arch Enemy, Black Dahlia Murder, Korn, As I Lay Dying, 2008 was a rather quiet year for Maroon in terms of live appearances. But, of course, the band did not twiddle their thumbs! The quintet locked themselves up for almost four months to invest as much time and concentration as possible into the work on its stunning new sonic bombardment!
"Order" kicks off with the atmospheric intro "Morin Heights" invoking the grandeur and tension of classic Metallica whereas the following tracks venture into melodic Death Metal territory ("Erode"), combine Doomy mid-tempo with a traditional Thrashing crunch and shredding leads ("Bleak"), include catchy mosh-anthems ("Stay Brutal") and even Black Metal ferocity ("Children Of The Next Level"). With the closing track "Schatten" (Shadows), Maroon have also written their first song featuring German lyrics. The over 7 minutes long, epic track is based upon a poem by German author Friedrich Rückert (1788-1866) who wrote over 400 poems after two of his children died of scarlet fever to at least try to cope with this tragic loss. "Schatten" is probably the darkest, most captivating and emotional song on "Order" and a great climax to the most ambitious and intense album in the bands career!!
The album debuted at number 63 on the German Media Control Charts.

The second full-length studio album by Italian Dark/Gothic Rock/Metal band.
It’s considered by band as not a full-length album, just a collection of three different EPs of the artist's unreleased material, which differ in terms of sound and atmosphere, but are united by the melancholy of Martyr Lucifer's dark soul. The collection gathers trilogy of "Shard One", "Shard Two" and "Shard Three" EPs.
Featuring members of At the Gates, Paradise Lost, Brujeria, The Haunted, Ancient and Nokturnal Mortum, this work raises points of interest not only from a musical point of view, but also from the occult and symbolic ones. The artist has accustomed us, since his solo debut, to complete works that offer not only sound, but also a complete artwork with puzzles to discover and interpret. And "Shards" is no exception.

Official re-release of the second full-length album by Swedish Alternative Stoner/Dark Rock/Metal band.
Sweden has always been one of the most prominent countries carrying out its own style of Heavy Metal. Before that album was selfreleased by the band in 2011. Band carries out a unique style of Stoner/Doom Rock/Metal that will not easily lose your attention. Exciting solo's and yet very catchy low-tuned riffs.
Mascot Parade's debut, "Deathmatch", symbolized the band's knowledge of Stoner Rock and Metal. Released on smaller-scale labels (Alabama Records / Daredevil Records) the quality wasn't optimal at the time, but that had nothing to do with the band's skill, for they had set the tone for more to come.
"Cause & Effect", Mascot Parade's second album, released on Noisehead Records, reminds of a mix between Mastodon and Kyuss. Heavy music intermixed with breath-taking solo's that alternate with the catchy hammering of the heavy riffs. Recommended for the classic Heavy Metal fan and of course for the Stoners among us, but eventually a great album for any Rocker out there! Recommended!!

The second full-length album by Philippine Death/Thrash Metal band.
Mass Hypnosia is a trio from the eastern fringes of Metro Manila's derelict urban landscape. 
Untouched by the blinding ineptitude that plagues the local Philippine band scene they guard their underground ideology with a fence of barbwired independence. Band have stocked their arsenal with an uncomprable and uncompromising barrage of hate and strife that is heard clear and precise within their riffs and the disturbingly intent nature of the band's murderous vocal screams. Slowly gaining notoriety and status on the Filipino underground music community, founder Karl Rosales kept and still keeps the fire burning despite of several lineup changes. Since their 2011 demo, "Blood Spotted Bullet Face", the band focuses on a matured, raw and gritty sound, which would become the prototype of the new direction the band is bound on.
All this cumulating in the release of “Toxiferous Cyanide” - an album full of raw and energetic Thrash Metal, which sounds as Thrash Metal should sound!
Disintegrating the fence line of vicious Brutal Thrash Metal and creative old school Thrash Metal art form, Mass Hypnosia is among the few handful of artists in Southeast Asia who had achieved a truly exemplar status in the international Underground extreme music scene!!
Uncompromising raw material in the vein of 80's Kreator, Sacrifice, and old Merciless!!

Second re-release of the second full-length album by the cult French Death/Thrash Metal band.
This is the first remastered re-release. Even harder, even furiously, even more deadly!
Massacra substantiated the world-beating Death/Thrash credentials that were hinted at by 1990's "Final Holocaust" debut with their aptly named second album, 1991's "Enjoy The Violence", which summarily grabbed that nasty sophomore slump fellow by the throat and beat him to bloody a pulp! Even though it barely deviated from its predecessor's template, Thrashy Death Metal laden with apocalyptic themes, the album boasted a slightly cleaner production at the expense of only mere ounces of the band's precious sonic ferocity, all the while bolstering its makers' reputations as incredible musicians with the remarkable precision necessary to pull off their frantically challenging songs. Just listen as vocalist/bassist Pascal Jürgensen somehow manages to juggle both the band's reliable bottom end and the inhuman growls hovering over it all; as guitarists Fred Duval and Jean-Marc Tristani fine-tune their positively telepathic rhythmic interplay while maturing immensely as stylists from solo to solo; and as drummer Chris Palengat simply steamrolls the band forward indefatigably at whatever pace is necessary, and it's evident why Massacra were reaching the peak of their powers on this outing! So much so, that picking out highlights is almost a pointless exercise, but for shits and giggles, let's go with he ubiquitous title cut, the gloriously profane "Ultimate Anti-Christ," and the more deliberate yet even more foreboding "Near Death Experience." And with minor but significant departures like the clean-picked intro to "Revealing Cruelty" and the surprisingly Doom-paced "Full of Hatred", Massacra were hinting at the broader creative horizons that already beckoned to them, slowly but surely. For now, however, the French quartet could content themselves (if content were ever a word to be associated with such a band and style of music) with the knowledge that "Enjoy The Viole nce" ranked with the absolute best Thrash-infused Death Metal ever recorded!
Anyone like rather original sounding old Death Metal in vein of Asphyx, Death, Possessed, Nihilist should really get this one!!

Second re-release of the debut full-length album by the cult French Death/Thrash Metal band.
The first remastered re-release.
Massacra started off with a few demos before they finally released "Final Holocaust" in 1990. As the bigger Thrash bands of the '80s began to go for a much less Thrash sound, Massacra did the exact opposite. They wrote some of the most intense and vicious Thrash to date. With insanely fast riffs, brutal drumming and crushing vocals, Massacra was ready to create a huge name for themselves in the Metal Underground.
This is what Death/Thrash should sound like. The classical backbone of the songs is just unbelievably kickass with the fast paced Thrash. The vocals are very aggressive and suit the music perfectly. The lyrics really remind of Sepultura's "Beneath the Remains" era style lyrics and the guitar playing is just as good.
The whole album is dark and it heavy the whole way through, and also essential to any fan of Death or Thrash Metal! There are no complaints that can be made about this masterpiece!! Massacra blends the best of Death Metal and Thrash on "Final Holocaust" flawlessly, and it shows!!!

The band started as a garage band from 1982 to 1984 and moved into Thrash Metal in 1985. Massakre is regarded as one of the first Speed/Thrash Metal bands in Chile. They have released four studio albums, and various demos and compilations. They are also known for using corpse paint in a Thrash Metal band, later imitated by others.
"Crematorium" is a return to the classic sound, comprising 10 tracks of pure Thrash Metal with some classic Death Metal influences.

The first re-release of the fifth full-length studio album by legendary American/Czech Death Metal band.
Paul Speckmann played a key role in the Death Metal formative years, with bands like Terrorizer and Entombed acknowledging him and Master as a major influence. And both Master’s first effort and the one and only Deathstrike album could be considered classics even today, thanks to their intensity and to a simple but effective songwriting style.
Master have never played Death Metal in the pure sense of the term, rather a form of down tuned heavy Thrash, and this style is to be found again here. “Let’s Start A War” has turned out to be a solid and good-class disc containing guitar-heavy Death Metal that has a little more to offer besides aggressiveness. If you can’t imagine what that is, Master can best be described as a mixture between Crowbar and Bold Thrower. “Dictators” rekindle with the glorious Deathstrike days, while “Cast One Vote”, “American Freedom” and especially “Disturbed” clearly sound like classic Master tracks. Lyrically, Paul Speckmann continues with his anti-American crusade.
Legendary Old-school Death Metal veteran Paul Speckmann returns with the re-release of Master’s “Let’s Start A War”. This remastered re-edition includes completely new cover artwork and packed in nice three-panel digipack. Also, CD contains “Follow Your Savior” /EP/ as a bonus!

Re-release of the seventh full-length album by legendary russian Thrash Metal band.
Moscow's Master has been a rather curious band over their long and distinguished career. They persevered since their 1987 self-titled debut album and is still making music alone is quite an accomplishment.
While the record it follows, 2001's "Labyrinth" has been somewhat lackluster even at best, not helped at the least by new vocalist Lexx's rather unique style not necessarily suited to some of the tracks thereon, expectations were set rather high for this one, as initial reports indicated a more straightforward, focused, heavier album than its predecessor. "33 Lives" is a marked improvement upon its predecessor, and while it is not quite the Thrash Metal, Master has been known for in days past, it is a mature album from veterans of the genre, both mindful of their roots and not afraid to embrace the values of modern production and occasional (but only so) modern influence.
While still not quite up there with their first two albums, this is easily their best album in last ten years!!
Re-edition contains five bonus tracks + multimedia video!

The first re-release of the thirteenth full-length studio album by legendary American/Czech Death Metal band.
The Motörhead of Death Metal delivers a vicious Old School Death Metal attack with 2016’s "An Epiphany Of Hate". Master gave us another viscous Death Metal offering in 2016. They have mastered what it means to produce high octane, ear drum bursting, unrelenting Death Metal. 
With a discography one can’t count on two hands, they have rarely skipped a beat in producing the fast-paced brutality we all so love and enjoy, and "Epiphany Of Hate" is no exception. Between the pounding drums, merciless riffing, and, of course, Speckmann’s wonderfully hideous vocals, "Epiphany Of Hate" does nothing short of furiously sodomizing your mind.
The ten tracks on the album almost blur together in the speed that they are thrown at the listener, and after a near 45-minute state of pure blasphemous bliss. Speckmann knows his audience well, and no Master fan is expecting progression or senseless technicality. "Epiphany Of Hate" delivers the reliable Master Death/Thrash sound that we all expected, and this is exactly why Master remains such a loved band to this day.
