The tenth full-length album by the cult Polish Black/Death Metal band.
Given that "The Satanist" is not only the first album by Polish firebrands Behemoth in five years but also their first since frontman Nergal was diagnosed with leukemia in 2010, you might expect them to be restless at the start, to burst open in a characteristic tangle of Extreme Metal. But they begin slowly, a sinister riff cutting patiently through open air. The drums march rather than maraud, while the bass pads the pocket. It feels like the preamble of a classic Rock anthem, perhaps the sequel to “Hells Bells”. But really, Behemoth want to make sure you can hear Nergal and understand him when he opens with purely heretic invective. Rather than emerge as though they have something to prove through speed and precision, one of Heavy Metal’s most popular bands elects to return with something to say that’s as vile and startling as most any moment in their previously impious two decades. Even the precipice of death, Nergal implies, didn’t soften his sacrilege. "The Satanist" in many ways reflects a synthesis of their stepwise, two-decade journey between atavistic Black Metal, expert Death Metal and a mid-career hybrid of the two. "The Satanist" doesn’t give up on high-end recording; in fact, with its occasional exultant choirs, horn fanfares, and acoustic interludes, it’s a complex and deliberate affair. This time, the sheen only highlights what’s beneath the surface, revealing these songs’ eccentricities and thrills rather than buffing them out.
Nergal is careful to stretch his style sheet of references beyond the Devil and Christ; he folds Latin and Coptic concepts into these lines, even nodding to John Milton in one passing moment. There was some doubt, after all, if Nergal would even live long enough to make another album. And there was certainly more doubt than hope that, if Behemoth did finish a tenth record, it would stand somehow as a late-career renaissance. But "The Satanist" is a terrific coil of most everything Behemoth have ever done well, a strangely hopeful vision of hell wrested away from its very grip. A vital, crushing monster of an album, it feels as though the band is digging deep here, tapping into hidden reserves of infernal power to deliver an album of profane and powerful sonic destruction! Behemoth sound revitalized and ready to destroy everything that stands in their path, and fans should be ready to either go along for the ride or be crushed!!

The debut full-length album by American Thrash Metal/Crossover band.
Texan Crossover Thrashers BIRTH A.D. bring their first full-length after a tactical nuke of an EP and are now ready to leave the entire world just a smoking crater with this highly anticipated debut.
Full of Punk attitude, Thrash precision, and a lot of yelling, “I Blame You” is the rightful heir to great bands like D.R.I. and S.O.D., and gives exactly as much of a damn about what you think as those bands did. With famed Thrash producer Alex Perialas (Anthrax, Metallica, Testament…) behind the boards, they sound as assured as you’d expect given their formidable credentials.

The second full-length album by Croatian Black Metal band.
Containing 10 songs, including Motörhead cover “Kingdom of the Worm”, it's a manifestation of the individual presence of its creators within the Black Metal scene for almost two decades. Each track is a journey into a realm of despair and darkness, mainly due to the harsh vocals and cold & dark guitar melodies that blend perfectly together.
This is not an album that anyone can just 'whack on' in the background willy nilly. It must be listened to intently and taken in like the musical drug that it is. "Cathedral Of The Black Cult" is a flawless, yet intimidating musical experience which will open a portal to another dimension to the listener who's ready to gaze into it.
Streaming melodic riffs in extended phrases form the defining character of each song with representational distinction and progressions towards tonal and rhythmic changes, communicating the purpose of hierarchical sequence observed in nature’s ferociously necessary order of operation, reflected in the substance of the inner-self, magnified in the character of spiritual striving and agonizing existential discovery.
This is pure unsaturated Black Metal in all of its cold fury! There isn’t just grim lyrics reflecting the power of Satan and the beauty of Darkness, but the album actually draws the listener into the world beyond humanity. If you truly understand the music, you will be taken to the dark endless universe!!
This is the future and the past of the Black Metal! This is a masterpiece of Black Metal and Extreme Metal in general!! Every other word and description is pointless...
For fans of: Satyricon, Emperor, Mayhem, and all Black Metal fans in general.

Nineteenth full-length album by the legendary British Heavy  Metal band.
The album was released on 10 June in Europe and 11 June in North America, via Vertigo Records and Republic Records in the US, and via Vertigo Records worldwide. It is the first studio album released by Black Sabbath since “Forbidden” (1995), and their first studio recording with original singer Ozzy Osbourne and bassist Geezer Butler since the live album “Reunion” (1998), which contained two new studio tracks. It is also the first studio album with Osbourne since “Never Say Die!” (1978), and with Butler since “Cross Purposes” (1994).
The original lineup of Black Sabbath first began work on a new studio album in 2001 with producer Rick Rubin. The album's development was delayed because Osbourne was in the middle of finishing his eighth solo album “Down to Earth”, and the rest of the band members eventually went on to pursue other projects, including GZR and Heaven & Hell. When Black Sabbath announced their reunion on 11 November 2011, the band announced that they would restart work on a new album with Rubin. In addition to original members Osbourne, Butler and guitarist Tony Iommi, they were joined at the recording sessions by drummer Brad Wilk, of Rage Against the Machine and Audioslave, following original drummer Bill Ward's decision to not participate in the reunion, due to a "contractual dispute".
For the cover artwork for was created an 8-foot-tall "13" from wicker, which was then set on fire in the Buckinghamshire countryside. The flames were visible for miles. The image was shot for album's cover.
Album reached No. 1 on the UK Albums Chart after its first week of sales. It is the band's first album to top the UK chart since “Paranoid” (1970). Osbourne was said to be "in shock" at the album's success, remarking that the band has "never had a record climb the charts so fast" before. The album also reached No. 1 on the US Billboard 200 charts, selling over 155,000 copies in the first week. Osbourne said, "There have been so many amazing highlights in our long career. To finally have our first #1 album in the U.S. is another incredible milestone for Black Sabbath." In its second week of release, the album fell to No. 5 in the US, selling 46,000, totaling 201,000 copies, and in its third week, 13 sold over 26,000 bringing its total sales to 227,000 copies in the US. The album also debuted at No. 1 on the Canadian Albums Chart with 25,000 units sold.

The first live album by legendary British Heavy/Doom Metal band.
Despite its wide distribution, it was released without any permission or knowledge from the band, and is thus considered "unofficial" in some quarters; however, the release was legal. In the US it was available only as an import.
The album was included when the Sabbath albums were issued on CD in Europe by Castle Communications in 1986 and again in remastered and repackaged form in the label's 1996 remaster series. The vinyl version and the first CD issue feature the spoken intro of, "Will You Welcome... Black Sabbath!" which, oddly, would be edited from the remaster and "Past Lives".
All tracks were recorded at the Manchester Free Trade Hall in Manchester, England on March 11, 1973 and the Rainbow Theatre in London, England on March 16, 1973. It is not known for definite from which concert the individual tracks arose, as this is not stated on the original release and there are, to date no known bootlegs for comparison.

The ninth full-length studio album by legendary German Power Metal band.
"At The Edge Of Time" is a fairly diverse album that got influences from Euro-Folk to Classical to Progressive Rock. These German veterans have been around since the mid-’80s, and whether they are being influenced for, "At The Edge Of Time" maintains a stubbornly pre-’90s outlook - both musically and lyrically. The lyrics are strictly fantasy-based, as were so many pre-90s Metal lyrics. Blind Guardian continue to live and breath the ’70s and ’80s, reminding us that they enjoy the pomp of Queen as much as they enjoy the pomp of Iron Maiden and Judas Priest.
Some will complain that this 64-minute CD sounds dated, but then, dated is exactly what Blind Guardian are going for; they don’t run away from it, they embrace it. Besides, one man’s dated is another man’s classicist.
Maybe not quite essential, "At The Edge Of Time" is an engaging album that not only achieves a fair amount of diversity within a Power and Progressive Metal framework - it is also one of the more consistent releases that Blind Guardian have provided in the 21st century!

The tenth full-length studio album by legendary German Power Metal band.
The band's first album since 2010's "At the Edge Of Time", marking the longest gap between two studio albums in their career (being three days longer than the gap between 2002's "A Night At The Opera" and 2006's "A Twist In The Myth"). It is also their first album without former session member Oliver Holzwarth on bass guitar since 1995's "Imaginations From The Other Side", with Barend Courbois replacing him. "Twilight of the Gods" was released as a single to promote this album.
A concept album and a sequel to "Imaginations From The Other Side", "Beyond The Red Mirror" has been described by Hansi Kürsch as "A story between science fiction and fantasy. The two worlds described have changed dramatically for the worse since then. While there used to be several passages between the worlds, there is only one gate left now: The Red Mirror. It has to be found at any cost".
"Beyond The Red Mirror" is a new level of symphonic involvement, founded in the kind of orchestral placement that made "At The Edge Of Time" such an improvement over the questionable and seemingly self-allusive "A Twist In The Myth". From its majestic opening in "The Ninth Wave," the continuation of the band's recent aims are determined in an effort four-and-a-half years in the making. As such, listeners can rest assured that they are in for another album experience that has been crafted with attention down to the detail.
A wholly cohesive and organised structure is this album's greatest strength, the driving force in what emphasises consistency in a manner unlike any of Blind Guardian's preceding records; an impressive feat considering their tendency to avoid inconsistency. A number of tracks are of a prevailingly up-tempo delivery that harkens to the band's Speed Metal origins with their irresistible drive and situated within an album best demonstrating Blind Guardian's symphonically enhanced modern sound, such as those occupying the album's centre in "Ashes Of Eternity" and "The Holy Grail", as the rhythm section dominates and urges the track-list onward. A majority of the record, however, seeks close arrangement with the orchestral component to form and maintain denser compositions with a tight unison between band and the enlisted grand orchestras and choirs (two and three, respectively). The purpose of this album is to cement such a uniformity in the style Blind Guardian have come to define over their thirty year journey, spearheading the Power Metal genre in a fashion entirely their own, ever seeking to enhance themselves to deliver fresh and engaging material, of which "Beyond The Red Mirror" is no exception.
For "Beyond The Red Mirror", the band worked with three different worldwide choirs from Budapest, Prague and Boston, along with two full-scale orchestras bearing 90 members apiece. The results are as larger-than-life as the band intended, fleshing out a sci-fi and fantasy piece bridged to their 1995 album, "Imaginations From The Other Side". The record's unbroken nature provides ample grounds for refining a new focus that is all the more impressively arranged leading on from 2010's "At The Edge Of Time", and is herein more wholesomely written into the songs.
"Beyond The Red Mirror" is another carefully constructed album experience, and adds further distinctive enhancement to Blind Guardian's catalogue! It is an ambitious concept album, unearthing an all new treasure trove of magic & fantasy!!

Remastered re-release of the second full-length studio album by legendary German Epic Speed/Power Metal band.
In comparison to their compatriots, their sophomore release can be considered underrated compared to the rest of their discography. Granted, it is still an important album in the early formative years of Power Metal. On "Battalions Of Fear" they had a raw proto-Power Metal sound, taking the template from bands like Judas Priest and Iron Maiden and simply playing it faster. They took this Speed Metal sound and amplified it further on "Follow The Blind", playing furious tempo songs interspersed with the occasional Folky keyboard. The Speed Metal here is almost Thrash Metal-like, minus the aggression. According to guitarist Marcus Siepen, "When we were doing "Follow The Blind", we were listening to a lot of Thrash Metal bands like Testament or Forbidden, and that's why "Follow The Blind" was a bit heavier".
"Follow The Blind" shows Power Metal in its early hybrid stages. There is a lot of youthful vitality and energy here, which helps to balance out their relative inexperience. It is clear that this early in their career they have not reached their songwriting or lyrical capacity, but they still offer over 38 minutes of pure fun Speedy mayhem!

For the first time on vinyl, the ninth full-length studio album by the legendary American Melodic Hard Rock band.
The girls who grooved to "Slippery When Wet" back in 1986 have gotten married and bought SUVs... but Bon Jovi is back to Rockin' with "Have A Nice Day", and if he can continues to deliver such good material in the future - these girls will back to grooves!
"Have A Nice Day" was originally recorded in the summer of 2004 and planned for release in early 2005. However, due to misunderstandings between the band and its record company, the album was delayed. The band wanted to write and record more songs, remove others from the original track list, and in the process, altered existing album tracks.
"Have A Nice Day" ranked number one in its debut, in 15 countries. The album also ranked No.2 in both the US and UK. In the US, it sold over 202,000 copies in the first week, making it Bon Jovi's best first-week sales in the band's history at that time. The album was certified Platinum by the RIAA.
If you're a fan of Jon since "Runaway", then don't hesitate to buy this album as you won't be disappointed! If you don't know Bon Jovi yet (but is that really possible??), "Have A Nice Day" is as good place as any to discover this band that puts one of the best Hard Rock songs you can ear on Radio!! If you're into Hard Rock/AOR, then this album is for you! Catchy and melodic to the bones!! Two thumbs up!!!

The second full-length album by the cult Norwegian Progressive Viking/Folk/Black Metal band.
This album marks the beginning of Borknagar's transition to a more Progressive Viking/Folk/Black Metal Sound. This is also their first to feature English lyrics. The Musicianship is excellent here. The albums lineup features some of the most recognizable names in Black Metal: Garm (of Acturus and Ulver) - vocals; Oystein G. Brun (of Molested) - guitars; Ivar Bjornson (of Enslaved) - synth; Kai K. Lie - bass and Grim (of Immortal) - drums. This would be the band's last studio album to feature Kristoffer Rygg (also known as Garm, Trickster G. Rex or God Head) on vocals. It is also their first album to feature Kai K. Lie on bass, replacing Infernus.
"The Olden Domain" is an impressive, highly musical Black Metal outing; the typical Norwegian blasts of sound are largely eschewed in favor of detailed arrangements employing electric and acoustic guitars, keyboards, piano, and vocals that range from the typical growl to an almost James Hetfield-like quality. Echoes of Metallica and Mercyful Fate permeate the record, but Borknagar is undeniably carving out its own territory.
The opener, "The Eye of Oden", starts the album with some Psychadelic effects before blasting into the music with some well-played music from all parts and Garm singing (not screaming, singing like his work in Arcturus). This song combines awesome melody parts along with some screaming tremelo picking with awesome singing and screaming from Garm. Awesome song.
The next song, "The Winterway", fades in with some slow tremelo picking, which is followed by some strummed acoustics, making for an awesome combination. This is broken with some awesome melodies between the keys and guitars here along with some quality singing from Garm, this song also switches between Extreme Black Metal and Melodic Metal. The chorus to this song is full of energy; you will love this song!
The instrumental, "Om Hundrede Aar Er Alting Glemt" starts with some nice keyboards going, the music being played here fits very well with the whole atmosphere of the album. Soon enough the guitars fade in, making for an awesome sound. The guitars and keys blend perfectly. Towards the end, the keys get more and more obscure, but it sounds awesome. Solid Song.
The next track, "A Tale of Pagan Tongue" starts with some good Black Metal and stays that way throughout the song, adding in some symphonic elements along with some brief interludes of Garm singing, this compliments the music very well. 
"To Mount and Rove" starts slow compared to the rest of the album, but still a nice tune nonetheless. The verse here is interesting, symphonic stuff, slow and with an effect on Garm’s whispered vocals, awesome combination by the masters. The song then picks up with some incredibly awesome sung vocals by Garm, his vocals right here define this entire song. The song continues to shift back and forth between the obscure and, well, the less obscure. Shifting in and out of slow, Doomy, Viking passages between Black Metal is what they do best and it shows here.
"Grimland Domain" starts off fast and aggressive before slowing down into more melodic parts, this song shifts between melodies and raw aggressive riffs well, combining in some obscure, Emperor-like keyboards. Garms vocals are not spared here either, he boths sings and screams here. This is a solid track.
"Ascension of Our Fathers" starts with an obscure distortion guitar riff along with some nice synths to compliment the music; this is followed by a slow-mid paced guitar lead. This song is about 4 minutes of a guitar lead with synths/guitars in the background.
The closer, "The Dawn of the End" starts with some fast Black Metal, keeping melody all the same. The song much like the others interchanges between slower, melodic passages and faster, more aggressive ones, hearing Garm sing is a nice touch. After a long acoustic passage, the music picks up one more time with Garm singing the lyrics 'I close my eyes...' as the album ends with a nice little solo behind it, an awesome way to end an awesome album.
If you don't like Garms voice on the Arcturus albums, then you will not like it here, but who loves Garm's voice to death - grab this CD!
This is by far one of the best albums Black Metal has to offer musically wise!!

The ninth full-length album by the German Heavy/Power Metal band.
Whatever its title may suggest, there's nothing about Germanic Heavy Metal band Brainstorm that would imply a spur of the moment decision; the band's timeless regeneration of traditional Heavy Metal is evidently arranged, performed, recorded, and produced with meticulous planning and attention to detail. But whatever the band may lack in spontaneous combustion, they rather make up for in clinical efficiency, which may not impress unconverted observers much, but is clearly something their established fan base has not only continued to support but very much come to expect: that's right, the expected. Be that as it may, since nothing is ever guaranteed where memorable songwriting is concerned, Brainstorm deserve much credit for keeping things relatively interesting within the confines of their limited musical range.
Imperial opener "Below the Line" really outperforms its mundane title; energized fist-pumping anthems like "In the Blink of an Eye", "Still Insane", and "Dark Life" seamlessly wed biting staccato riffs to double kick drums, yet never exceed their mid-paced speed limits. And even classy late-album offerings that finally threaten Power Metal velocity - "Where Your Actions Lead You to Live" and "A life on Hold - stop quite short of losing any measure of control. Surprises? None whatsoever; so, again, don't let the title fool you: "On The Spur Of The Moment" finds Brainstorm acting like their predictable yet reliable selves. Hey, someone has to toe the line in Heavy Metal, why not Brainstorm?

The third full-length studio album by American Heavy Metal/Hard Rock band.
Cardiac Noose was born out of the ashes of the New York Doom act Lost Breed, a band that had Wino from Saint Vitus on t he vocals until they signed to the defunct Hellhound Records in the 90s. Two of the members in Cardiac Noose, Eric Baestlein and John Rapp, has not only played with Lost Breed, but also the New York 80s Heavy/Speed Metal band Blind Legion. When Lost Breed disbanded in the late 90s (with an unreleased album under their belt), they called themselves Vengeance Brothers for a short time before changing name to Cardiac Noose. Two private pressed self-released albums was released, "Bled To The Bone" (2007) and "Get Back Home" (2009), before it got rather quiet around the band. Then, in 2013, the band returned with their third release, "Girl Named Misery".
This album is a step forward in songwriting, and it's an album that not only should please the old Lost Breed and Blind Legion fans, but any fan who wants their Rock honest and really heavy. "Girl Named Misery" features twelve great songs of whiskey-drenched Southern Metal, with the classic Hard Rock academy of the 70s in the back. Think Lynyrd Skynyrd and UFO, through an Alabama Thunderpussy filter, and you might get the picture!

The third full-length studio album by Portuguese Heavy Metal band.
High class pure Heavy metal from Portugal!
Don't be fooled because of the cover. Released in 1999, it's a very hard to find album. It has remained unknown through the years because of the ''new wave'' looking cover artwork.
Check it, and you wouldn't be disappointed!
