AURA NEGATIV “Aura Negativ” /CD/

A brooding wind sweeps down from the North. Music tends to be the one thing that can separate you from the drudgery of life, and especially so, the majesty of grand Ambient atmospheres. Aura Negativ offers this imaginative possibility, and is a new side-project from Eöl, the Spanish musician and soundsmith behind Numen and Elffor.
This debut self-titled effort is comprised of a handful of tracks that were recorded around 2005 and eventually gathered together for their release here. These six untitled tracks are a combination of majestic Ambient structures and harmonious swells the lull over grand sweeping melodies and curiously distorted vocals and samples. It is hard to describe this album without using overly ambiguous words, but that is primarily for the fact that it is such a grand experience that words are simply not sufficient enough to describe the intricate emotions and sensations that seep through every melody and every sound of this album. Even though this album is far from unique in its shape and sound, it has been crafted so bloody well that it deserves high praise for the atmosphere that was obtained alone. It feels like a soundtrack to some grand, void-born adventure, and although the tracks all differ substantially from the one another, they also individually retain a unique and powerful sound.
The combination of a heavy atmosphere and distorted vocals meld together exquisitely to bring both intensity and an overwhelming other-worldliness to the song. The rhythm here has been crucially structured and never takes up more space than it needs in order to amplify the superb minimal melodies of the song, yet it remains like a beating heart all through the track.
Aura Negativ might be a trunk of odd bits and ends from Eöl’s past, dug up and crafted together into a release in the latest months of 2013, but it will blow you away in its potent gale. This album might well be the grail for seekers of a soundtrack to the void between the harsher Black Ambient and the more melodious atmospheric shapes of Classical Dark Ambient.

AUTOGRAPH "Sign In Please" /CD/
- Product Code: PCD1-5423
-
€ 11.90
- Price in bonus-scraps: 119
Despite their long-haired, pretty-boy image and the occasional hot guitar solo, Autograph was one of the more mainstream Hard Rock bands associated with the L.A. Metal scene. And though it spawned only one hit (the MTV favorite "Turn Up the Radio"), their 1984 debut is a solid collection of hook-heavy tunes. The album also featured other minor hit, "Send Her to Me". Both songs had accompanying videos.
Singer Steve Plunkett has a knack for catchy choruses. He leads the band through a number of memorable melodic rockers, among which "Cloud 10" and "Friday" are clear standouts. "In the Night" is a top-notch power ballad, and while puerile frat-house anthems like "Night Teen & Non-Stop" and "My Girlfriend's Boyfriend Isn't Me" come off rather forced, the band excels at classy, mid-paced rockers such as "Thrill of Love" and "All I'm Gonna Take".
Anyone expecting ridiculous aggression should stick with Mötley Crüe, but for those who prefer a sleeker Hard Rock sound in the vein of Night Ranger, this album will certainly satisfy!
At 1985 the album reached 29 place and Billboard 200 and was certified Gold in USA by RIAA.

The album featured their signature song, "Turn Up the Radio", and their other minor hit, "Send Her to Me", both of which had accompanying videos.
"Turn Up the Radio" was featured in a variety of media in the coming decades and is regarded as an '80s Metal staple. "Turn Up the Radio" was featured in "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City" and "All I'm Gonna Take" was featured in "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories" games respectively.
According to lead guitarist Steve Lynch, the album took 30 days to record and master: "We were seasoned musicians in the studio so worked very fast and were always well-prepared". He also noted that its major hit, "Turn Up the Radio", was recorded at the tail end of the "Sign In Please" sessions and that RCA didn't find it suitable enough for inclusion. However, after stern insistence, the band was able to get it on the album. Neither party, however, expected it to gain such critical success that led to the album's Gold status in 1985.

AUTOPSY “All Tomorrow’s Funerals” /Digibook CD/
- Product Code: CDVILEF365
-
€ 12.90
- Price in bonus-scraps: 129
This great digibook contains all of Autopsy's EPs and rarities remastered by the band as well as some new and exclusive cuts (1-4 tracks) for a combined total of 22 tracks, resulting in over 73 minutes of sickness! Everything from "Retribution For The Dead" to "The Tomb Within" is presented with all original artworks and liner notes from the band!!
Doomed up, mud'n'guts Death Metal, most of which compiles previously released out of print EP material, remastered and repackaged in a terrific hardcover booklet with righteously reeking artwork from Matt Cavotta.
"All Tomorrow's Funerals" includes the remastered versions of songs from early '90s EPs "Retribution For The Dead" and "Fiend For Blood; "Horrific Obsession" and "Feast of the Graveworm" from the "Horrific Obsession" Single; "Funereality" from the "Peaceville Vol. 4" compilation; the five cuts that first appeared on "The Tomb Within" EP, which includes one of the most nefarious Doom licks Autopsy has ever recorded on "My Corpse Shall Rise"; four new cuts, including a title track, "Broken People", "Maggot Holes" that pick up right where the phenomenal "Macabre Eternal" left off, and an appropriately creepy/bizarre close to the proceedings called "Sign of the Corpse"; and he aforementioned "Mauled to Death", which is a 1987 demo track resurrected for this release.
If you already own most of the previously released material, you could make the argument that "All Tomorrow's Funerals" is for that reason alone not all that essential. But you'd be totally dismissing the impact of the remastering, the first-rate packaging, and the new songs. Besides, the original recordings offered much in the way of compositional value to begin with. None of it comes close to unacceptable. This is one case where remastering adds immense value to the oldest recordings; much like the production on "Macabre Eternal" was of a high, modern standard that didn't sap the filthy essence of Autopsy.
The commentary contributed to the booklet by guys like Bob Bagchus (Asphyx), Ted Skjellum (DarkThrone), and Dopi (Machetazo) is well worth the read. All are long-time fans that are intimately familiar with the Autopsy material and offer insight into the band's influence and impact on the genre of Death Metal. Collectively written comments from Autopsy are also included.
The real story told through all that blood-gargling and sewage riffing is how Autopsy managed to get better as players and songwriters with the new material (as already proven by "The Tomb Within" and "Macabre Eternal"), while staying true to the form perfected by the band all those years ago. It is impressive how cohesive "All Tomorrow's Funerals" sounds during front-to-back-listens. The reanimated and the newly formed fit together snugly, the result a compilation that flows damn near as well as a proper studio release.
"All Tomorrow's Funerals" is 73 representatively morbid minutes of music from one of the greatest Death Metal bands of all time!!!

Both records are long out of print and very hard to come by, meaning this collection will be warmly received by fans of the bands more widely available third album "O’Funeralia" (2009) – and those fans may be many as all three albums were very well received by fans and critics alike upon their original release.
From the very start of debut album "In Loneliness of Two Souls" it is apparent what subgenre we are dealing with here, as images of early My Dying Bride and Anathema are instantly evoked.
"By The Candles Obsequial" is indeed a progression in the band’s sound, with more variety of elements, especially the addition of occasional female vocals, which, although a bit of a clichéd way for a band of this ilk to diversify, is tried and tested and certainly works. Certainly the keyboards are a cut above those found on the debut, really standing out rather than being a bit of a background/textural element. The general level of both song writing and production also seems improved and really puts "By The Candles Obsequial" up there in the elite category within the genre.
All in all this has to go down as an absolutely essential release for anybody into this kind of Melodic Death/Doom Metal who does not own both albums. Sadly the band have released nothing new since 2009, but perhaps the renewed interest generated by this release will spark something. We certainly hope so!

- Price in bonus-scraps: 99
If you like Axel Rudi Pell or if you just like to listen to great Heavy Metal, "Live Over Europe" is a must! In Europe, Axel Rudi Pell's live shows are a hot attraction because they so faithfully replicate the experience of '70s and '80s Metal gatherings. "Live Over Europe" is full of 21st century performances that do everything possible to give audiences a '70s/'80s-like Metal experience. The first DVD focuses on Pell's 75-minute appearance at the 2007 Rock Hard Festival in Gelsenkirchen, Germany, while the second DVD is billed as the "Official Bootleg DVD" and was filmed at several different events (including festivals in Sweden in 2004, Germany and Belgium in 2005, and the U.K. in 2006).
In terms of visual quality and sound quality, there is an obvious difference between DVD one and DVD two; Pell's Gelsenkirchen set was filmed professionally, whereas most of the footage on DVD two was filmed from within an audience and has a home movie-ish appearance. The overall quality on DVD two isn't terrible, although it certainly isn't audiophile quality either. But the performances are inspired on both DVDs, "Live Over Europe" is a captivating example of how much live Metal performances of the 2000s can feel like live Metal performances of the '70s and '80s!
The magical atmosphere of Axel Rudi Pell's music, laying sophisticatedly on his smart-influenced Blackmore taste, has raised his reputation to a respected level worldwide.
"Live Over Europe" is an amazing DVD, really this is a must for all the people who like Heavy Metal and great musician skill of course. The Axell Rudi Pell band is a great combo full of amazing musicians, so if you like great guitar soli and catchy songs, please check this release, you'll not regret it!!

For over 25 years, Axel Rudi Pell has counted as one of Germany’s most versatile guitarists. With over a dozen studio albums, he has a record of brilliant productions, loved by his fans and greeted with respect and praise by the press.
Axel Rudi Pell is a well-known virtuoso, alumni of Ritchie Blackmore's style. He started to make solo albums and only after a long time he managed to get an image of his own. Of course, his influences are clearly traceable. A bit of Sabbath, a lot of Purple and Rainbow, some bits of Dio and Judas Priest. But here after some goods ("Nasty Reputation", "Between The Walls") and not-so-goods ("Wild Obsession", "Eternal Prisoner") he actually became "Axel Rudi Pell" and not just another Blackmore-esque virtuoso shredding just for the sake of self-appraisal. A great thing in this album is precisely that it finally gave an identity to Axel Rudi Pell.
Another high point for this release is the exact amount of "Power" within the Metal. This album has that precise and magic touch. When we listen to other more successful bands in the mainstream Metal world, like Sonata Arctica or even late Stratovarius and their fully-made-of-synthesizers-and-keyboards tracks (with no riffs at all in some points) we understand how the heavy Metal can be shattered and get lost. Axel Rudi Pell shows us the other face of the Power Metal genre: the one with the riffs. The guitar's essence and brutality, mixed with talent and melodic behavior.
The riff is the essence, Axel Rudi Pell knows that, and, with riffs, he takes his victory at the end of this album, the finest he ever made. In "Black Moon Pyramid" ARP starts a legendary couple of follow-ups ("Magic" and "Oceans Of Time") which remains his magnum opus period.
This album is highly recommended for the people who wants to know how Power Metal should be made. If you want to survive in this business of Metal, you must have some talent and you need to know how to reflect yourself in an original way, respecting your own influence. Axel Rudi Pell figured this out and made a high shot! If Blackmore was his teacher, well, Axel learnt all the lessons. Masterfully!!

This is Pell’s fourteenth studio album, excluding "Diamonds Unlocked" cover album, and his eighth with Hardline vocalist Johnny Gioeli and journeyman drummer Mike Terrana on board.
Axel Rudi Pell is nothing if not dependable, and in addition to knocking out a new album every two years fans can always count on each new album sounding almost exactly like the albums that came before it. The formula goes something like this: start with a short instrumental introductory track (for Circle of the Oath it’s “The Guillotine Suite”), then blaze right through a couple of high octane Hard Rockers (“Ghost in the Black”, “Run With the Wind” and “Before I Die”). After that it’s time for a sweeping epic that clocks in somewhere around the ten minute mark (title track). Then do it all over again, with a couple more rockers and at least one ballad, before closing things out with another epic (“World of Confusion”). Another brief instrumental is optional. As for lyrics, just throw everything Ronnie James Dio ever wrote into a hat and pull lines out at random until you have enough to fill an album.
Now, if you love that formula then by all means pick up a copy of this album. You’ll get Pell’s dynamite guitar work, Terrana’s very steady drumming and, perhaps most notably, a powerhouse vocal performance by Gioeli.
Overall, Axel Rudi Pell’s newest effort “Circle Of The Oath” is sheer testimony to the fact that there is no end in sight for this brilliant guitarist, and yet again, he has churned out an excellent set of tunes!

"Diamonds Unlocked" is a cover songs album that consists of 10 cover tracks and 1 self-written introduction track. Axel Rudi Pell attempted to make cover versions of tracks from typically "non-Metal" artists including Phil Collins and Michael Bolton in order to show how these songs would be done in his signature Melodic Rock/Metal style.
"Diamonds Unlocked" is hardly the first example of an established rocker putting together an album of covers, and it certainly won't be the last. Some Rock critics say that they hate cover albums on principle, but truth be told, there is nothing wrong with cover albums as long as the artist makes an effort to put new spins on familiar songs. In other words, a good cover album isn't going to sound like the work of a run-of-the-mill cover band - and Axel Rudi Pell pretty much avoids that on "Diamonds Unlocked", which employs Johnny Gioeli (perhaps best known for his work with Hardline) on lead vocals. Gioeli's performances tend to have a Jon Bon Jovi-ish quality, but none of the songs on this 2007 release are Bon Jovi songs; actually, about half of the tunes originated outside of Hard Rock and Metal.
Pell and Gioeli turn their attention to Hard Rock favorites like the Who's "Won't Get Fooled Again", Montrose's "Rock the Nation", and Free's "Heartbreaker", but they also embrace songs ranging from Phil Collins' "In the Air Tonight" to U2's "Beautiful Day" to Michael Bolton's "Fools Game". Pell and Gioeli make "In the Air Tonight" and "Beautiful Day" Rock harder - not in a full-fledged Heavy Metal way, but certainly in a Hard Rock/Arena Rock way - whereas their equally intriguing take on Kiss' "Love Gun" does just the opposite: it rocks less hard than the original version and is transformed into a moody ballad.
"Diamonds Unlocked" won't go down in history as one of 2007's masterpieces, but despite hitting the occasional speed bump (most notably, the Bolton cover), "Diamonds Unlocked" has more ups than downs and demonstrates that cover albums don't have to be predictable or devoid of surprises. After all, you probably already know all the songs featured on this CD, but damn, that's cool to listen to those Metal versions! It's fresh and extremely fun to listen to such covers and you'll like a lot to listen to this album!! "Diamonds Unlocked" is a really nice break in the musical discography of Axel Rudi Pell!!!

This is the first Axel Rudi Pell album with Jeff Scott Soto, acclaimed vocalist of Malmsteen’s Rising Force fame. Unlike the rather dramatic vocal theatrics of Rob Rock, Soto’s vocal approach is a more straight forward mix of passion and Sleaze. He has lost none of his power since his incredible work on Malmsteen’s brilliant opus “Marching Out”, but the music on here gives him a chance to really explore his vocal capabilities, as Axel Rudi Pell likes to emulate the lyrical storytelling of Ronnie Dio.
Although this album recorded after “Nasty Reputation”, unlike its predecessor it’s contains some tracks that are more comparable to AXEL RUDI PELL’s Glam Rock style. To prospective buyers, although this album has its quasi-80s cheese moments, it’s a great listen with plenty of the classic Axel Rudi Pell devices that have since become standard on his various opuses.
If you like Black Sabbath, Rainbow, Deep Purple, Dio, and Malmsteen then this album is an essentially buy, not to mention a necessity for any fan of guitar driven Metal!!
