AMORPHIS “Under The Red Cloud” /2LP/
- Product Code: NB 3211-1

€ 34.90
- Price in bonus-scraps: 349
The twelfth full-length studio album by legendary Finnish Melodic Folk/Gothic Metal band.
Founded in 1990 in Helsinki, Melancholic Metal masters wrote music history, incl. classic albums like their debut "The Karelian Isthmus" (1992), their breakthrough "Tales From The Thousand Lakes" (1994) and "Eclipse" (2006) - their first album with the new vocalist Tomi Joutsen, which marked the beginning of a new era in the band‘s history.
Now Amorphis kicked off the celebrations for the band's 20th anniversary of "Tales From The Thousand Lakes", which delights the masses even today. Regardless of their relentless touring schedule, they secretly returned to the studio to write and record their forthcoming, twelfth record, with famous producer Jens Bogren (Soilwork, Kreator, etc.) at his Fascination Street Studio in Örebro. The result of this two-month recording session is once again a heavy, melodic statement, called "Under The Red Cloud". During the recordings, the sextet was joined by some famous guest musicians: Chrigel Glanzmann (Eluveitie) played flutes on "The Four Wise Ones", "Death of a King" and "Tree of Ages"; Martin Lopez (ex-Opeth drummer) played percussions on "Death of a King" and Aleah Stanbridge (Trees Of Eternity) sang guest vocals on "The Four Wise Ones", "Sacrifice" and "White Night".
A perfect example for the variety and feel is the first single "Death of a King". It starts with an oriental melody & crashing drums, and has a lot of dynamics. The follow-up "Sacrifice" is more upbeat and relies more on the soaring lead melody, like the opener "Under the Red Cloud", which starts with a tension-creating piano intro. The title track flows over into the double bass-dominated and one of the most aggressive songs on the album - "The four Wise Ones".
"Under The Red Cloud" stands tall as its own album. Everything fits snugly together, and there’s a real sense of confidence exuding from each band member in their respective craft. Amorphis have risen yet again to the challenge, and show no signs of backing down soon. If this is the standard that the band holds itself to right now, it’s astonishing to ponder where they’ll be going in the future. Furthermore, each member of Amorphis continues to improve and fire on all cylinders with each release. Vocalist Tomi Joutsen transitions from clean to harsh vocal styles almost effortlessly, accompanying the musical shifts from soft to straight up heavy. Guitarists Esa and Tomi provide rhythms, riffs, and solos that can easily be sung, which are accompanied by aggressive, yet almost gentle low end from bassist Niclas Etelävuori. Santeri Kallio’s keyboard complements the music in a way that is crucial, a great addition to Folk-inspired Metal. Rounding out Amorphis behind the drum kit is Jan Rechberger, whose drum parts provide the solid foundation that each song requires, never overplaying and always finding an ideal balance between groove and flair.
Elements of Folk have always been an important part of the music that Amorphis creates, and this remains unchanged to this day. One of the best examples of this element on "Under The Red Cloud" is heard in songs such as “Death of a King”, as well as “Enemy at the Gates” and “Tree of Ages”. Solid Metal with folk influence peppered throughout, a recipe for great music. Other tracks, such as “Sacrifice” and “Dark Path” undoubtedly contain more of these elements, but more specifically focus on steady, hard, and heavy flow.
Any substantial album would not be complete without a solid closer, and "Under The Red Cloud" is no exception. The album concludes with “White Night”, which combines emotional melody with aggressive attack to perfection. The addition of female vocals on this song works extremely well, and the album finishes on a high note, signaling the end of yet another release from a band that only seems to improve with time. "White Night" marks a kind of summary of the album, because it contains some trademarks of other songs like an oriental feeling or driving double bass drumming at the end. So it’s a worthy last chapter of the story, Amorphis are telling us this time.
Amorphis is back, and "Under The Red Cloud" is definitely a 2015 release worthy of your time and attention! "Under The Red Cloud" is a 50-minute offering of a more varied brand of Amorphis. It features memorable moments, an edgier sound and above all, killer tracks. This new album is easily on par with their best albums to date, if not better!!

The third DVD by the legendary British Progressive Doom/Death Metal/Alternative Rock band.
The 14 concert tracks are displayed with the index so the Pink Floyd fans can jump right to the final track of "Comfortably Numb". As Floyd cover bands are proliferating, it's kind of nice to hear an actual group that is its own entity do a cover along with their other material. And they do a nice Rock & Roll job on it, not to mention the fact that their music runs a sort of parallel to big Pink.
The concert footage is wonderfully filmed and the sound is delightfully eerie. The main concert was filmed and recorded at Metalmania Festival, Spodek, Katowice, Poland, March 4th 2006. There are additional tracks of: "Sleepless", "Dying Wish", the Peter Green/Fleetwood Mac classic "Albatross", and "Fragile Dreams" from a 2004 Krakow concert. The lighting, sound and dynamics are par excellence! A real find and something that should garner the band a larger fan base!

The third full-length album by Italian Progressive Thrash Metal band.
This band have been playing Thrash Metal for close to fifteen years now, and they are produces really good quality Thrash Metal, but not as you might expect. This isn't the incredibly heavy grind of Kreator, nor is it the more mainstream Thrash Metal that a lot of people will be familiar with.
The opening track, "N.I.F. (New Interstellar Force)" has a very atmospheric intro, and then becomes almost a Crossover Thrash tune. It's really catchy and a great way to kick off this record. The second track, "…Hyperspace", is everything you'd want from a Thrash Metal song; it's fast and aggressive, but has a lot of melodic elements thrown in as well. At some points, it has an air of Gama Bomb about it. "Sea of Stars" begins with a nice acoustic intro, before becoming a full-blown melodic Thrash Metal track. Like all of the songs on this album, the guitar work on this track is pretty cool. The album's title track is, like the last track, Melodic Thrash Metal, but with a bit more aggression thrown in there for good measure. "Colonizing Asteroids" opens on a very military, marching kind of drumming, bursting into life after about half a minute and turning into a song that sounds like what Megadeth would be like if they had gone more down a Prog route. The highlight of the end of the album is "Dead Zone", which is a powerful Thrash Metal anthem.
This band don't fit into the traditional pigeon-holes of Thrash Metal. They go for a more melodic sound, which a lot of other people will like!!

"Colonizing Asteroids" opens on a very military, marching kind of drumming, bursting into life after about half a minute and turning into a song that sounds like what Megadeth would be like if they had gone more down a Prog route. The highlight of the end of the album is "Dead Zone", which is a powerful Thrash Metal anthem.
This band don't fit into the traditional pigeon-holes of Thrash Metal. They go for a more melodic sound, which a lot of other people will like!!

Re-release of the debut full-length album by Italian Thrash Metal band.
These Italians sure know their Bay Area Thrash! Ancient Dome has been working the scene since 2000, and released 3 demos prior to being signed by Punishment 18 Records. This recording experience is noticed in the overall sound of the band’s debut album.
The production is a little classic Thrash sounding. The bass is quiet and overall the mix feels very open, and overall very decent given the production of many other Thrash albums. Luckily Ancient Dome knows how to keep you interested, to listening to the album over and over. Looking forward to a couple particular tracks such as "Fall Of The Dominion" and the ultimate Testament homage, "Total Command".
For every hardcore Thrash fans who like classic Thrash Metal!!

Second full-length album by the Italian Thrash Metal band.
With their second full-length album, "Perception Of This World", band have decided to take their other influences further than they did with their 2009 debut album "Human Key". Ancient Dome don't really fail this time either. At first, the album is about speedy and simple Thrash Metal songs. They sound a lot like Bay Area Thrashings, but the band start to sound more individual, too. "Confused Certainty" includes some later Death style Technical/Progressive guitar work. This time around the performances from the musicians are better. It's great to hear, that the drums are now competent and devoid of clumsiness. The shouty vocals all the way through, sometimes reminding of Schmier of Destruction and Death Angel's Mark Osegueda. The band's biggest advantage is their style to give all those familiar influences their own stamp and turn it to sound like Ancient Dome.
Excellent technical and melodic Thrash Metal for fans of Sodom, Forbidden, Testament, Megadeth, Heathen, Metallica, Coroner, Artillery and Death Angel!!

Debut full-length album by the Dutch Gothic Metal band.
Helena Michaelsen's debut album, with her solo band Angel, is certainly one remarkable musical diary unveiling itself to all those who dare look at it. Here's the sad story of a little girl, through the misty tunes of Angel…
Beautiful looking Helena Iren Michaelsen fills our ears with beautiful vocal lines from the snowy country of Norway. She's been the singer for Norwegian Goth Metallers Trail Of Tears' first two albums but then departed and joined After Forever guitarist Mark Jansen, ex-Cassiopeia guitarist Ad Sluijter and keyboard player Coen Janssen, Gurthang and Axamenta bassist Yves Huts (a.k.a. 'Enuresor') and drummer Iwan Hendrikx of M-90's, Silent Edge and Exivious. They all formed the venturous act Sahara Dust which would later be renamed into Epica and gain immediate commercial success. Unfortunately (or fortunately) Helena left the band a year later and…In 2003 joined God Dethroned's pairing of guitarist Henri Sattler and drummer Ariën van Weesenbeek in a new force entitled Imperia.
In 2004 Imperia released their debut album while in the meantime Helena also covered Dead Can Dance's "The Lotus Eaters" for a tribute album released by the Greek Black Lotus Records. In October 2004 Helena would see to her solo ambitions in the form of Angel which signed her a deal with Black Lotus Records. Shortly after, the promotional single "Don't Wanna Run".
The music of Angel however takes a very personal look into the deepest emotions of this beautiful lady singer. She opens her heart completely on these twelve songs, and combines this emotional trip with bombastic sounds, which makes this CD a very passionate masterpiece. The music is a mix of Pop, Gothic, Wave and Rock.
So what secrets lie within Helena's diary, waiting to be discovered by your very own ears? Melodies of sorrow, melodies of nostalgia, of love and hate, of passion and anger. The entire album is one big trip through memory lane together with a little girl that fills in the pages of her diary with her thoughts, with her feelings as the years pass by and she grows up to be…a woman. That's the feeling you'll get after listening for instance to songs like "Little Princess" or "Little Girl". Soft and innocent, these songs are just like a little kid, emotion-wise...
Helena Michaelsen's got an awesome voice but most of all she knows how to sing out her emotions!

- Product Code: SGCD062
-
€ 6.90
- Price in bonus-scraps: 69
Debut full-length album by Greek Progressive/Jazz/Fusion Rock band.
This debut full-length release is 78% instrumental and certainly not a head-bang fest. Be prepared, dear listeners, for a brilliantly chilled-out collage of genres in every track. If you are a fan of Jazz, smooth Jazz/Fusion, Blues, or Progressive Metal, you won’t have any trouble finding something to like on this album, and sometimes most of them within the same track.
Playing Fusion is not for the faint of heart nor the weekend warrior musician. Multiple tempos within one track, syncopated rhythms, different musical scales and echoes of anything from Progressive Metal riffs to down-home Blues pulled out of the ethers requires Samurai-like dedication to one’s instrument and an enormous corpus callosum. Whew! It hurts my head to even contemplate dissecting the components of each track. Anchor of the trio, Stornello, is a well-known guitarist, teacher and president of the Modern Music Institute. He also has his own album release called “Jazz It My Way”. He could give George Benson a run for his money). Terenziani is also a renowned guitar instructor and bassist. Both he and Caridi are band mates in Killing Touch. Terneziani and Caridi play in various separate bands, as well. The best showcase of Terenziani’s Jazz solo virtuosity is in “Traffic Jam”. Caridi proved himself the heartbeat of the entire album.
What is so extraordinary about this album, overall, is that not once did any instrument drown out the other. It’s not been a common occurrence to hear each well-played instrument being absolutely distinguishable, giving the listening audience an opportunity to appreciate individual artistry.
This album is sure proof of how exposure to and the playing of more than one genre can broaden one’s inventiveness and technical prowess. It also shows musicians and listeners, alike, that there are some really neat toys to play within our large musicversal sandbox.
Power Fusion certainly has the credibility and song-writing skills to be more than just a one-time fun project for the members involved. However, even if they never continue on, Power Fusion will remain a power example of state-of-the-art Italian Progressive/Fusion. There’s no denying that this album should get a title of one of the best albums of the few last years!

Both he and Caridi are band mates in Killing Touch. Terneziani and Caridi play in various separate bands, as well. The best showcase of Terenziani’s Jazz solo virtuosity is in “Traffic Jam”. Caridi proved himself the heartbeat of the entire album.
What is so extraordinary about this album, overall, is that not once did any instrument drown out the other. It’s not been a common occurrence to hear each well-played instrument being absolutely distinguishable, giving the listening audience an opportunity to appreciate individual artistry.
This album is sure proof of how exposure to and the playing of more than one genre can broaden one’s inventiveness and technical prowess. It also shows musicians and listeners, alike, that there are some really neat toys to play within our large musicversal sandbox.
Power Fusion certainly has the credibility and song-writing skills to be more than just a one-time fun project for the members involved. However, even if they never continue on, Power Fusion will remain a power example of state-of-the-art Italian Progressive/Fusion. There’s no denying that this album should get a title of one of the best albums of the few last years!

- Price in bonus-scraps: 99
The second full-length studio album by American Heavy/Power Metal band.
Founded by former Manowar drummer Kenny “Rhino” Earl in 2008, Angels Of Babylon recruited strong acclaim with 2010 debut album "Kingdom Of Evil", which featured Megadeth’s Dave Ellefson on bass. Line-up changes followed, but now the potent force of Earl, vocalist Diego Valdez (Skiltron, Helker), guitarist Ethan Brosh, and bassist Steve Handel (Seventh Calling, Protest), return with the band’s new album and a powerful ear-catching onslaught it is.
With rampant rhythms and sinew-bred riffs, coursing the melodic expanses giving breath to the songs, "Thundergod" is a thoroughly enjoyable if inconsistent encounter and one, which Power and Heavy Metal fans you can only suspect will devour greedily.
The opening title track is an ode to legendary Manowar drummer Scott Columbus (R.I.P.).
If you love melodic “True Metal,” then at least check out the good stuff, because it’s pretty damn good!

- Product Code: PER 01222
-
€ 7.90
- Price in bonus-scraps: 79
The debut full-length studio album by American Heavy Metal band.
The band of W.A.S.P. former guitarist Randy Piper. It was in 1988 that the idea for Animal first crawled to the surface, then for one reason or another, nothing ever became of it.
Of course, the band's name comes off the most controversial 80s Metal song issued. "Animal (F**k Like A Beast)" marked W.A.S.P.'s risky (and eventually successful) affair with fame and fortune. Now, the title steps in for this newly formed act driven by ex-W.A.S.P. guitarist, credited in the Shock' Rock masters' first two colossal albums, "W.A.S.P." (1984) and "The Last Command" (1985).
One consolation at least for Randy, his leaving came at the right time as W.A.S.P. went on to create the weakest album of their prime, and have never really rivalled the intensity of the two guitar attack, in spite of Lawless' taking over. Now here's the irony of it all. Not only does he emerge from relative obscurity that even went so far as to include a rumour of his death a few years ago, but no, not only does Piper come back, he's brought two old W.A.S.P. buddies with him for what is essentially the blood and guts core group of their early '80s heyday.
So instantaneously, through Animal, W.A.S.P. fans from the very beginning have what they've been waiting for, with the one notable exception of course. This record smashes and scatters the remains of today's tough guy acts. Some good riffing here and there, some interesting leads and - overall - the same-titled tune itself are the 'pros' of Animal's debut creation. "900 Lb. Steam" sees another target group needed for Randy Piper. This is clear. If you're not that bored after the music over, maybe it's this style you like from now on!
