The second re-release of the second full-length studio album by legendary Portuguese Gothic Metal band.
If an alien ever visited the Earth and asked “what is Gothic Metal?”, a peace offering of "Irreligious", Moonspell’s groundbreaking 1996 album, would have been the perfect answer to the inhabitant of a far, far away galaxy. "Irreligious" is the jewel of the crown of the style. Because of its prefect balance. Not too little, not too much, this album is the perfect pitch and absolute archetype of Gothic Metal. It is the crossroad where Metal meets Gothic and lead the way to a different style and fusion between the darkened elegance of Goth and the powerful depths of Heavy Metal. At one time modern and classic, it truly survived the test of time with the most amazing the style has ever heard, from the smashing hit-opener "Opium" to Moonspell’s eternal ode to the Moon in the shape of "Full Moon Madness". The latter is usually the closing song during almost every Moonspell concert, which over time has become a characteristic of their concerts. Before the song begins, Fernando Ribeiro often makes the sign of the circle (symbolizing Moon) over the crowd. 
The tracklist in near-perfect, with songs that are lean and catchy but at the same time rich in depth and texture, which ensures the album withstands, and in fact almost invites, repeated listens.
The production is alright, but it causes the guitars to sound thin in a few places. The guitars are midway between heavy and melodic. There are no solos but some interesting leads. The songs have a dark yet upbeat vibe to them. The overall feel is something epic and stylishly evil.
The bass does its own thing for the most part, since there was only one guitarist on this album. He follows the drums but adds a sufficient flare to keep things fascinating. The drums are creative and the beginnings of Miguel coming into his own. There are some underlying keyboards, which are mostly used as background.
The vocals are brilliant and go from a low deathly growl to a more mid-high shriek. The clean vocal is the standard deep Gothic-esq croon. There is also a female vocalist at "Raven Claws".
"Irreligious" is one of those albums that tell a story from beginning to end. The lyrics are poetic, introspective, and expansive. When combined with the highly original music, they create a moody, sexy atmosphere that works well.
"Irreligious" is a sublime album of quintessential Gothic Metal. It is one of those records that define the genre itself, masterfully combining the harshness of Extreme Metal with Dark Atmospheric Gothic Rock. "Irreligious" is a masterpiece. It’s an album that has stood the test of time and has risen to be one of the best records not only in Moonspell’s discography, but also in the genre as a whole!!

The second re-release of the third full-length studio album by legendary Portuguese Gothic Metal band.
"Sin / Pecado" became the great divider of Moonspell "wolfpack". Produced by their long time companion, Waldemar Sorychta, the songs of this “accursed” album were signs of a rebellion of the band against the sound that made them famous in the scene. Instead of wolves and vampires, Moonspell set the compass to songs filled with Electronica and Dark Wave moods that talked about the European Community or the love for a woman.
Frontman Fernando Ribeiro says: "There was true creative anguish burning inside us in 1997, after we were done with the endless "Irreligious"’ tours, that created the perfect (shit)storm that would be "Sin". It was a strange year for us. Paradise Lost, My Dying Bride were letting loose and seemed to be also under the same mood as we did, or vice versa. It doesn’t matter. Metal was turning its wheel, and we’re all on the falling side. We took the fall and enjoyed doing it anyway. It wasn’t Moses dividing the waters, but it did sometimes hurt to feel alone. Curiously, a lot of other people entered "Sin"’s mood a couple of years later, and now they beg of us to play those songs live. If you’re reading this and need another taste of "Sin", let’s indulge each other and pick up that "Second Skin" from the late-nineties deep closet!" 2019 brings us a new chance to take the sinful cup to our lips and see if that red wine has aged better or tastes sweeter than more than twenty years ago…
… Like an ageing wine that tastes better and sweeter than more than twenty years ago: the path-breaking album by Gothic Metal pioneers in a Deluxe Edition reissue!

The third re-release of the debut full-length studio album by legendary Portuguese Gothic Metal band.
In the ever Scandinavian-obsessed climate of the early to mid-90’s, album like "Wolfheart" were incredibly important, as they made a bold and defiant statement that there were bands from other countries singing about their own culture and rich folkloric history in pride and passion.
It's funny how, at such an early stage of their career, a band, from a country with a relatively unknown metal presence, can change their sound, and not only succeed, but make one of Metal's unique records. This is a vast departure from the morbid Occult Black Metal with Arabic influences showcased in their earlier "Under The Moonspell" EP, instead delving deeper into the newly-born Gothic Metal sound and its aesthetics. The black metal is still present, though, but in a more melodic form, not unlike the one of the Greeks Rotting Christ (which, casually, would start their turn towards the Gothic side of the Metal spectrum one year after this was released), in the form of tremolo-picked riffs and harsh vocals, and the Folk elements are not quite the ethnic and Arabic influences of the EP, instead using flutes and cleanly sung vocals, thus having a more native (at times, bordering on Celtic) feel. Those influences are in perpetual clash with the Goth Rock influences, like the emotional, bordering on melodramatic baritone vocal performance (with spoken parts) and the abundance of ethereal synths which are the main contributors to the eerie, Dark, Gothic-Horror themed atmosphere of the music. There are some female vocals too, but, they are used not in the obnoxious 'Beauty-and-the-Beast' way, but as background vocals, for most of the time.
"Wolfheart" is a high watermark in modern Lusitanian musical culture, and it's highly recommended for people who have an interest in actual Goth Metal, which can keep a sinister vibe! A wild (midnight) ride!!

The fifth full-length studio album by legendary American Heavy/Glam Metal band.
The last album to feature Vince Neil until his return for their 1997 album “Generation Swine”. Produced by Bob Rock, which found the process of working with Mötley Crüe difficult, describing the band as "four L.A. bad asses who used to drink a bottle of wine and want to kill each other". In order to minimize conflict and allow production of the record to proceed smoothly, Rock had each member record their parts separately. Lars Ulrich of Metallica asked Bob Rock to produce their self titled album “Metallica”, after being impressed with Rock's production work on “Dr. Feelgood”.
"Dr. Feelgood" topped the Billboard 200 chart, being the first album Mötley Crüe had recorded after their quest for sobriety and rehabilitation in 1989. In addition to being Mötley Crüe's best selling album, it is widely regarded by music critics and fans as the band's best studio album. "Dr. Feelgood" and "Kickstart My Heart" were both nominated for Grammy awards for Best Hard Rock Performance, but lost twice to Living Colour.
"Dr. Feelgood" sold more than six million copies in the U.S. and went Gold in the U.K.

Second re-release of the fourth full-length album by the legendary American Glam Metal band.
"Girls, Girls, Girls" continued Mötley Crüe's commercial hot streak. In general, the Crüe really plays up the sleaze factor on this album, trying to recapture some of the street-tough grittiness that fueled "Too Fast for Love". The production is too polished to really give the record a raw, dirty feel, but the raunchiness comes through all the same. Again, there's a bit of filler, as though the band knew they didn't have to make a completely consistent record to maintain their popularity, but there are enough high points along the way to make "Girls, Girls, Girls" an entertaining Party-Metal platter.
The album features a more Blues-influenced sound than their previous albums. The record also reflects the band's hard-living lifestyle, and pays homage to their love of riding Harley Motorcycles, drinking whiskey, drug use, life on the Sunset Strip, and spending nights at strip clubs. However, there are darker sides to the album as well, notably Nikki Sixx's song "Dancing on Glass", about his addiction to heroin, and "Wild Side", which tells of destructive lifestyles and the pitfalls of decadence. Members of the band have stated that if they hadn't managed to write two successful songs that this album would have been the end of their careers. This is because they were all fighting addictions to drugs and alcohol.
The song "Nona" is a tribute to Nikki Sixx' grandmother, who died during the recording of the album.
The album peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard charts. On the week it might have reached No. 1, Whitney Houston's second album, "Whitney", debuted at the top of the charts. The album was also the band's third straight album to go 4x Platinum, after "Shout At The Devil" and "Theatre Of Pain".

The twelfth full-length studio album, also known as a “Death Or Glory”, by the legendary British Hard Rock/Heavy Metal band.
For fans who had been disappointed for earlier Motörhead releases, “Bastards” came as welcome return to the band’s roots in the loudest and hardest-driving kind of Rock’n’Roll.
Into the early 90’s, Motörhead’s influence had spread. Terms like “Speed Metal” were being used to describe not only Motörhead’s own style but also that of other bands playing in a similar vein. Thus “Bastards”, whose tracks are featured here, seemed too many to present to a return to hard-core form. By the time Motörhead began recording “Bastards”, the band was essentially a quartet, consisting in this case of Lemmy, Mikkey Dee, Phil Campbell and Michael Burston, who was known as Würzel.
“Bastards” mixed band’s characteristically angry and intense Hard Rock – songs like “On Your Feet”, “Burner”, “Born To Rise Hell” and “Liar” – with powerful, more acoustic ballads like “Lost In The Ozone” and the thoughtful and painful child-abuse number “Don’t Let Daddy Kiss Me”. Many fans have ranked “Bastards” among the best of Motörhead’s many albums.
In the many years since “Bastards” was released, Lemmy has kept up his relentless approach to touring and recording with various iterations of Motörhead. The tracks offered here provide the fine example of the band’s staying power and commitment to its founding ethos!

The first re-release on vinyl of the fourth live album, “Blitzkrieg On Birmingham '77”, by legendary British Heavy/Speed Metal/Hard Rock band.
This album showcases Motörhead’s incendiary gig at the Birmingham Town Hall, on 3 June 1977, during the Beyond the Threshold of Pain Tour.
1977 was a pivotal year for Motörhead, seeing as it saw the release of their debut, self-titled album and also the hiring of Fast Eddie Clarke, forging what is invariably seen as the classic line up of this seminal band. The year may be closely associated with the height of Punk Rock, but the ultra Heavy Metal styling of Lemmy & Co always crossed the divide and appealed to Punk and Metal fans alike.
"Birmingham Town Hall 1977" is the first recording from Eddie Clarke's personal archive that got released. And it was the first gig on the tour with Hawkwind and also the first gig that was made after the initial recordings of the "Motörhead" album.
The 11 tracks here straddle the tracks written for that debut LP ("Iron Horse/Born To Lose", "Vibrator" and "White Line Fever") and older material such as "Motörhead", originally penned by Lemmy's previous employers Hawkwind, their cover of Eddie Holland's Motown classic "Leaving Here" and "On Parole", first recorded with Clarke's predecessor Larry Wallis in 1976 then shelved.
This live recording has cropped up in so many and varied releases on CD that it is almost impossible to keep track on. For the first time, it was officially released in 1989 on CD & LP as “Blitzkrieg On Birmingham '77”. Every time it gets re-issued, it also gets a new title.
The sound of one of the finest bands ever, just beginning to hit their stride!

The third re-release of the fourteenth full-length studio album by legendary British Heavy Metal band.
The band's first studio album to not feature guitarist Würzel, and returning to usual three-piece format, instead of four-piece on the past six albums. 
Following the extremely Thrashy "Sacrifice", Motörhead returned to their typical three-chord Rock & Roll onslaught with 1996's "Overnight Sensation".
Also, the band's most eclectic in years, its tracks range from pedal to the Metal stompers like "Civil War" and "Eat the Gun" to mid-paced groovers like "Listen to Your Heart" (featuring acoustic guitars) and the classy "I don't Believe a Word".
Always a great lyricist, vocalist/bassist Lemmy takes it up a notch with the highly ironic title track and what is quite possibly the band's greatest song of the decade, the hilarious "Crazy Like a Fox".
Despite its terrifying cover (featuring the trio's ugly mugs instead of the band's trademark iron monster), this wonderfully raw and honest record is guaranteed to please, especially older fans!

The second live album by legendary British Heavy/Speed Metal/Hard Rock band.
The album was recorded live at the Roundhouse, London, on 18 February 1978 at a benefit concert for William Wordsworth manuscripts and, due to contractual reasons, Motörhead were billed under the name Iron Fist & The Hordes Of Helldue, part of which would later be used for the name of a studio album, "Iron Fist".
Chiswick Records boss, Ted Carroll, organized the Rolling Stones mobile truck to record the event, and the rights to the recording becomes to Chiswick Records (sub-label and forerunner of Ace Records). They officially released it as a live album in February 1983 on Big Beat Records, a sub-label of Ace Records.
The album features nine songs from their mid-to-late 1970s period and includes tracks such as "The Watcher", "Iron Horse/Born to Lose", and "Leaving Here".
Lemmy is heard at the end of the concert to say "read plenty of Wordsworth" and as a result the album got its title because of this.
The album reached number 71 in the charts. Since then, it has been re-released with other titles and/or other sleeves, among others as "The Watcher" in Canada, "City Kids", "Live, Loud And Lewd", "Iron Fist And The Hordes From Hell" and "England 1978". In 2017, this concert was re-released on a 3LP box set of Motörhead's debut album, specially for Record Store Day.

The first re-release of the fourth full-length studio album by legendary British Death Metal/Grindcore band.
Along the way Napalm Death started to receive flak from their original fan base which consisted of mainly Crust Punks and Hardcore Punks that were fans of their original Grindcore sound. Unflinching from the flak, Napalm Death said to hell with those cries and went back in the following year and released a compilation called "Death By Manipulation" which showed an even more Floridian Death Metal influence than before, which sadly was whirlwind drummer Mick Harris's last output with the band due to musical differences and stress from the road. Napalm Death kept pushing forward and with their fourth album "Utopia Banished". This album proved to be their biggest success, peaking at number 58 on the UK chart.
The album features samples of dialogue from the movies “They Live” and “Full Metal Jacket”. It is the first album featuring Danny Herrera on drums following the departure of Mick Harris.
“Utopia Banished” has been remastered specially for this release and includes four bonus tracks recorded during the same period! Reissue pressed on black vinyl limited to 800 copies, with printed inner sleeve.

For the first time on Picture Disc, the sixteenth full-length studio album by legendary British Death Metal/Grindcore band.
It is the band's first full-length studio album since 2015's "Apex Predator – Easy Meat", making it their longest gap between albums.
According to vocalist Mark "Barney" Greenway, "The phrase sticking in my mind when I started thinking about the lyrical direction for this album was “the other”. You could recognize at the time that there was a rapidly growing fear and paranoia being generated about everybody, from migrating people to people with fluid sexuality, and this was starting to manifest itself in very antagonistic reactions that you felt were almost verging on violence. Not everybody resorts to such reactions, of course, but even the basic lack of understanding can become toxic over time. I’m not saying that this is an entirely new phenomenon, but it has been stoked in recent history by some particularly attack-minded people in more political circles and, as ever, I felt that it would be the natural antidote to endorse basic humanity and solidarity with all. The artwork specifically uses a white dove as a centrepiece, which of course is a commonly recognized symbol of peace and cooperation. The dove has been mauled very violently by a sterilizing hand, and in death appears particularly broken and bloodied. However, through the violence you can see an equality symbol in blood on the chest of the dove, which perhaps demonstrates – visually at least – that equality cuts through in the end. A positive amidst many negatives then, much like the album title itself being a bit of an oxymoron – the celebration of humanity even in the mangling jaws of negativity".
Metal Hammer named it the second-best Metal album of 2020.
Limited to 1000 copies, Picture Disc includes bonus track “Air's Turned Foul In Here”.

The second full-length studio album legendary the Scottish Hard Rock.
Although their music is most accurately described as "Blues-tinged Hard Rock" (CD liner notes), this record is quite far from the band's more standard fare, featuring, quite surprisingly, a number of acoustic arrangements, several songs with orchestral strings, and traditional Scottish airs. The band was known for being a pure, powerful Hard Rock band in concert and on later releases, but on this album they decided to abandon the riff-heavy guitar assault they showcased as a live act. "Exercises" is a collection of mostly acoustic tracks with lush harmonies and little sign of the driving in-your-face Rock that they showcased on their debut, "Nazareth". On tracks like "Madelaine" and "In My Time", the band comes across more like laid-back English Pop balladeers Badfinger than their real contemporaries like Deep Purple and Thin Lizzy.
There are a few strong moments on the album. "Woke Up This Morning" is a strong track that provides a Bluesy vocal performance by Dan McCafferty, driving rhythm, and some great slide guitar work by Manny Charlton. "Called Her Name" is another song where the listener will find the band hitting full stride and sounding much more comfortable. The album's "1692 (Glen Coe Massacre)" is about a real incident in Scottish history, namely, the massacre of Glencoe. The album is also significant for its Roy Thomas Baker production—only his third project, and well before his breakthrough works with Queen in the mid-seventies—and its oddly 'new wave' cover-art. An early version of the "Razamanaz" song, "Woke Up This Morning", also makes an appearance on Side 1.
Fortunately, with the help of Deep Purple bassist/producer Roger Glover, the band managed to return to their Hard Rock style and finally captured their live sound on their follow-up album, 1973's "Razamanaz", which cemented their reputation as an upper-echelon Hard Rock act of the '70s.
