The third re-release of the fifth full-length studio album by legendary British Heavy Metal band.
The first Saxon studio album with new drummer Nigel Glockler.
After enjoying their first brief hiatus from the endless tour/record/tour/record grind, the members of Saxon reconvened in late 1982 to begin working on their fifth studio album.
Certainly one of Saxon’s greatest moments in the early 80s, perfecting their solid steel formula of writing songs that are of the highest order in British Metal. Like any of their early discography, add this one to your list!
The album peaked at #15 in the UK Albums Chart. It reached No. 1 in the Metal charts in Sweden, Norway, France and Germany, selling over 1.5 million copies worldwide. It was their first album to enter the Billboard 200 in the US, peaking at #155. In 2005, "Power & The Glory" was ranked number 376 in Rock Hard Magazine's book "The 500 Greatest Rock & Metal Albums of All Time".

The third re-release of the second full-length studio album by legendary British Heavy Metal band.
Band's first album to enter the UK Albums Chart, peaking at number 5, and is their highest-charting album in the UK Albums Chart to date.
After finding themselves a qualified Heavy Metal producer in Pete Hinton, the members of Saxon recovered from their disappointing debut in fine form with 1980s career-defining "Wheels Of Steel". As well as effectively setting the template for the band's most successful efforts, the album's songs positively gleamed with a bright, Metallic sheen similar to that exhibited by the chrome eagle hoisting a motorcycle wheel on its iconic cover!
The album eventually went on to achieve Gold status in the UK.

The second work by Ukrainian Post-Hardcore band.
"Leave" combines piano's lyricism and incendiary heavy guitar riffs. Track pays tribute to the canons of Metal music, but also brings something new to the genre. Electronic music supports bursting extreme vocals, giving both melancholy and rapture.
The main topic of the song is a betrayal. It draws an analogy with God and abandoned children. The message, which is carried by lyrics, is to understand that you need always stay strong and overcome all adversities. This all helps to look inside yourself and find a solution that will let you stand on your own two foot.
Recording and mixing were made by Amaze Studio, known for its work with many Ukrainian Post-Hardcore and Metalcore bands.
For fans of: Asking Alexandria, Blessthefall, Eskimo Callboy, Of Mice And Men, Down And Dirty, Memphis May Fire, and Capture The Crown!!

Official re-release of debut mini-album + remastered tracks from the first split-release of the Brazilian Thrash Metal band.
A Metal thrashing holocaust by these Brazilians (Sao Paolo natives) guarantees to kick you motha-f**kin' ass!
Scars started their career back in 1991! Through the years the band has managed to play along many respectful names. Their debut 3-way split release was out in 1994, called "Ultimate Encore"...
"The Nether Hell" is essentially a tribute to classic Thrash (think Exodus and Slayer) at their peak with a bit of German Thrash (Destruction, Kreator, Sodom) and a trace of Death tossed into the mix. The music is competently and energetically performed and the production is surprisingly good for an independent release. The guitar sound shines through and the vocals are some good, serious Thrash vocals sort of like Sepultura. The riffs will have you banging your head and the fast parts will melt you. The average song length is quite long, because the 6 songs have a total length of around 30 minutes.
Recommend to every Thrash Metal fan out there, the music you'll hear will shock the crap out of you! This mini-album is worthy for many reasons for example the incredible music, the layout, the songwriting, the solos, etc. even the lyrics are interesting to read!A really good find!!
Re-edition contains remastered versions of the songs from "Ultimate Encore" split as a bonus!

Second full-length album by Finnish Death Metal band.
The Finish from Scent Of Flesh play brutal and quite fast Death Metal however full of melodic moments (nothing to do with the Swedish school!). The vocalist has a deep and “clean” growl which sometimes reminds the voice of the Obituary frontman, covered with spider web, mixed with Polish Christ Agony’s vocalist voice. Musically stuff is quite eclectic – there is something from Death or Severed Savior, some elements of our Vader, or even echoes of early Napalm Death and Carcass. A varied mixture, but very, very convincing. If you love Death Metal, don’t even think about hesitating… buy or die!!

Second full-length album by the cult Italian Thrash Metal band.
Prime movers of the Italian Extreme Metal scene together with Bulldozer and Necrodeath!
Schizo have finally come out from the Underground Metal scene and have become a big name in Metal, probably the best Italian Metal band around, and really deserve to be called so, because now Bulldozer and Sadist have split up, and Necrodeath and Disarmonia Mundi have really sold out, Schizo remains one of the few big Italian bands that can really call themselves "Metal".
Listen to this CD once and you'll immediately realize this is a bad ass band, under every aspect. Every band member in fact plays a really big part in the CD and every instrument sounds ferocious and quick paced, although Schizo can master very well tempo changes, ranging from fast guitar riffs, with crushing drum blast beasts and very complicate bass parts, to instant slow down, with the drums just keeping the tempo, the guitars making plain harmonics and with a plain melodic voice. Schizo also can create wonderful intros.
The singing and drumming play the lions part, and are simply breath-taking.
In fact, Nicola Accurso's vocals are every time aggressive, and are very particular, because they are halfway between plain screaming and Tom Araya's aggressive singing tone, but are much quicker and aggressive and never drop a tone or look weak. Accurso can really sing in a wild sounding scream, and makes a wonderful impression on the listener.
The drums are even better: their sound is crushing from start to end, and they honor the Thrash/Black Metal genre. The blast beats play a big part, both because they are the main drum parts in the songs and because they're always quick and tough. Double bass is also used very well and even the tom parts are creative and complex, always playing in fast tempos.
With artwork by the legendary Lorenzo Mariani (Darkthrone, Mayhem) and arguably decent production from Peter In De Betou, Schizo's second effort is admirable enough! "Main Frame Collapse" might have been compelling enough to rival the mighty Necrodeath back in 1989, but Schizo might have been consigned to the Underground by a higher power a long time ago. Future serial killers, however, should look no further…

The fourth full-length album by cult Italian Thrash Metal band.
Schizo have been pioneers of the Italian Extreme Metal scene together with Bulldozer and Necrodeath. Band was founded in 1984 and symbolizes one of the most important brand in Italian Extreme Metal scene. Chuck Schuldiner, mastermind of legendary Death band, was asked to join the band for the recording sessions of “Main Frame Collapse” in 1989; however, due to the intense activity with his band, Schuldiner was forced to deny the request. Schizo was on hold between 1999 and 2005. Their 2007 waited come back release, “Cicatriz Black”, has been extremely well received by critics and fans. In September of 2007, founding member Alberto Penzin decided to leave the band due to musical differences and personal problems with the rest of the band. Then, Dario Casabona was named as new four strings player. Band released the third and last full-length album in 2010, “Hallucination Cramps”.
The fourth album, “Rotten Spiral”, gives us intense, perfectly timed, beautifully executed melodies and harmonies, with some of the most cleverly mastered combinations between the instruments and vocals. “Rotten Spiral” is a real fast paced and head moving album from start to finish. If you remember the old school greats in Metal you’ll love this, with the track "Skeptic Flesh", and those melodic sections delivering power so intense it’ll blow your head off.
The solos are brilliantly crafted, from the dive bombs and pitched harmonics to the tremolo picking. The title track is brilliant, a real head mover throughout. Speed, ambience, power, riffs to melt your mind, vocally driven, and the solos to send shivers through you.
Overall, this is an incredible album, which would appeal to all Metalheads looking for something more from their Metal!
