Debut full-length album by Post Dark Gothic Rock/Metal band from Italy.
The band follows the great tradition of bands like A Perfect Circle, Katatonia, Anathema, Isis offering with their debut a wide range of emotions in some moments more refined and psychedelic, in others very aggressive. The great impact and evocative vocals, the dreaming progressive tones of the rhythmic session and the graceful and powerful at the same time sound of the guitars lines are the main elements of their wonderful artistic expression.
Featured Frank Default (Katatonia and Bloodbath)!!
For fans of Alcest, Isis, Anathema, Cynic and Katatonia!!

The third full-length studio album by legendary American Glam Metal band.
Released in 1991, the meticulous production gives the album a sound typical of the period - a full sound, with lots of background harmony vocals, layered guitars and additional keyboard tracks.
The album starts in a more somber note with "Over the Edge", which was used in the film Point Break, but the bulk of it consists of standard Hard Rockers, such as "Kiss My Love Goodbye" and "My Koo Ka Choo". The band aims for the ballad hit several times, in "Crystal Eyes", "It's Over Now", and the 1950s-style "I Found You", attempting to repeat the earlier success of their major single "The Ballad of Jayne".
While no track from the album topped the charts (and the band's success declined soon afterwards as their style fell out of commercial favor), "Hollywood Vampires" presents various shades of the band and is representative of the late 1980s - early 1990s Heavy Metal scene, with riff-laden songs and big choruses on every song.
Rare first pressing edition with slightly different track listing. Track 11 is "The Ballad Of Jayne" (a shorter version than the one that appeared on the "Cocked & Loaded" album) instead of the song "I Found You" which appeared on other pressings.

The sixth full-length studio album by legendary American Hard Rock/Glam Metal band.
Produced by former Guns N' Roses guitarist Gilby Clarke, "Shrinking Violet" is a harder-edged return to L.A. Guns' roots in Sleazy, crunching Glam Metal a la Kiss and Mötley Crüe.
Every track on this CD is a winner. Seriously, its really good! This is not the raw garage band that L.A. Guns has become known as, but largely sounds like a band trying something new because they have nothing to lose.
The songwriting is actually quite consistent overall; the end result is a surprisingly focused and effective album by a band that appeared all but spent as a creative force. New singer, Jizzy Pearl (ex- Love/Hate), brings a nice raw sound back to the band, as does Clarke's restrained yet muscular production. Gilby Clarke also provided additional guitars on the track "Dreamtime".

Second full-length album by Italian Space Rock/Progressive Metal band.
The Italian outfit La Sfera is a special band. They're a combination of Progressive Rock, Alternative Pop and classic sixties Pop. That’s the best and easiest to describe them. Daniel Pucci has a strong and clear voice, one which will fit in a lot of genres. He’s supported by snarling guitars and Heavy Metal drums with a lot of synths. There’s been twitching around in the music as well, but in a good way. They alter the music by adding something to it, not taking something away. The music is catchy, almost too good to be true, but there’s also this ridiculous side to it. The tracks are diverse and don’t repeat themselves too much. Although they combine a scale of different genres, each song stands on its own.
"Where Man Breaks" is a difficult album to describe, because it’s so wide and special. Try combining "Dust In The Wind" with "Master of Puppets". Does that sound good? Then you might give this album a try! Not your thing? Then you might have an incredibly bad imagination, or this thing just might not be for you.

4th full-length album by Italian Gothic Rock/Metal band.
More prominent Middle-Eastern sound compared with Lacuna Coil's previous releases. The album is considered a blend of classical and modern rock, which is notably heavier and more metallic than previous releases.

500,000 copies of “Karmacode” have officially been sold worldwide. In Italy the album sold over 20,000 copies, earning the album a Silver record. In the United States, the album was sold around 200.000 copies.

The seventh full-length studio album by cult American Groove/Metalcore band.
The final Lamb of God album of original material to feature drummer Chris Adler before his departure from the band in July 2019. Also, it's the first album after lead vocalist Randy Blythe's manslaughter case and a brief hiatus after finishing the "Resolution" touring cycle. 
For the past three and a half years, Lamb of God has gone through some fucked up shit. With Randy Blythe being locked-up and accused for murdering a fan some years ago, most fans probably thought that was the end for Lamb Of God in 2012. Three years after Randy's ultimately brief incarceration and freeing, band are back with probably their most anticipated album ever. Fans waited a long time for this album to hit the shelves, just to hear the result of the band's recent struggles. On top of it, their last album, "Resolution", was a bit mediocre, so this album also had to prove that Lamb still is in the game.
The production job is clean and heavy. The band's now long-time producer Josh Wilbur once again handled this album, and you will be satisfied with his work. This album is certainly not as over-produced as "Ashes Of The Wake" or "Sacrament" were (both of them were produced by Machine), but it's cleaner than "Wrath" and better mastered than "Resolution", which had some annoying digital clipping.
The band really brings out the best of themselves this time around, both playing-wise and in writing/arrangements. This album is ultimately a very strong effort that feels like an actual band product, rather than a cocktail with a bit of everyone here and there, like the previous album.
The album was included at number 20 on Rock Sound's top 50 releases of 2015 list, while MetalSucks voted it the best Metal album of 2015. Also, it was honored with a 2015 Metal Storm Award for Best Thrash Metal Album. “VII: Sturm Und Drang” has sold over 100,000 copies in America.
Lamb Of God has really topped itself this time, and "Sturm Und Drang" really is one of their finest efforts!

The debut full-length solo-album by American Progressive Power Metal singer.
Lance King is world renowned in the Underground as “The Voice” in Metal, singing on over 25 worldwide releases over the last 21 years. Known best for his voice on five albums with Pyramaze and Balance Of Power, what is truly special about Lance is his ability to morph his voice to fit any mood and intensity of a song, he’s proved this over the years by adding a very "special something" to every album he has been a part of. Said to have the golden touch, Lance’s voice just seems to connect the dot’s making head banging Metal also into a good song.
On the last day of June, 2011 Lance decided to invite some of his musical friends to co-write songs with him as he ventured into his first solo album. An act of faith only knowing their work, never working with them before creating music. In just two months, those involved had created an epic masterpiece and in under three “A Moment In Chiros” was mixed and mastered and off to the presses! This album was meant to be out by 11/11/11 Nightmare Records, and own label of Lance King, and is destined to stand the test of time.
The album's concept is based on the 11:11 time prompt phenomena happening to over 75 million people around the world, Lance is one of these people, and has dived in deep to find more about what it’s all about. This album is one man's journey as a seeker of truth looking for answers to the world's greatest mysteries. 
The album features amazing musical contributions from past and present members of: Bruce Dickenson, Beyond Twilight, Anubis Gate, Thought Chamber, Jorn, Spheric Universe Experience, Darkwater, Phonomik, Myrath, Wuthering Heights, and Avian.
Produced by Kim Oleson (Anubis Gate) & Jacob Hansen, (Volbeat, Heathen, TYR, Amaranthe, Communic, Mercenary, Onslaught, Rob Rock, Blotted Science, Raunchy, Pretty Maids, Cryoshell.
Even through slight familiarity for this legendary Metal vocalist, "A Moment In Chiros" is a perfect summation of an illustrious career of immense musical integrity. The music is perfectly composed just as a great movie soundtrack. The lyrics and vocal form of King fits great and provides each song just what it needs to take it to the top. Production wise the record sounds amazing!
Etheric Progressive Power Metal for fans of: Redemption, Dream Theater, Symphony X, with the nod ad greats Led Zeppelin!!

Remastered re-release of the debut full-length album by American Progressive Groove Metal band.
The re-release of Last Crack's 1989 debut shows the completely raw energy of what was to come of this great, but seldom heard of Mid-Western band. Recorded at Prince's famed studio, Paisley Park in Minneapolis, Last Crack were able to make their Heavy Rock, Groove laden, tongue in cheek humor into a reality. "Funkhouse" is first of all a very fun and loose record. Singer, only known as Buddo, makes sure of that. One of the claims to fame for Last Crack was the album cover art for this debut. Back in 1989 this cover was very controversial. A fully naked Buddo in somewhat of an archery type of pose, did serve them well and caused a buzz for the band.
As silly and fun as Buddo is with his John Bush (Armored Saint/Anthrax) with a bit of Phil Lewis (Girl/L.A. Guns) themed vocals, guitar duo Don Bakken and Paul Schluter, play their guitar wizard roles as serious as a heart attack, filling this record with great solos and rifferage throughout. While the rhythm section of drummer Phil Buerstatte and bassist Todd Winger set the table for Last Crack's often intricate and Groove filled Metal.
Last Crack obviously had a good sense of humor to go along with their musical chops. Song titles like "Gush Volcano Crush" and "Blood Brothers of the Big Black Bear" are not used if you can't back them up. And while cutting their teeth on this first major release, songs like "Slicing Steel", "Terse" and the downright Funky "Saraboyscage" all show how diverse and menacing they are capable of being.
While recorded at a world class studio like Paisley Park, the production of this debut sounds just that, a debut. Very under produced, probably because they weren't given much of a budget to record with. Remember this was 1989 and not like today with the "Pro Tools" generation of making a million seller CD in your bathroom.
Last Crack is a band to check out. The songs on this debut don't sound dated, but the production does. So listen with an open mind. The talent is there. If you like bands like King's X, Mindfunk, Icon and Armored Saint then you should dig Last Crack!!
Re-edition includes two bonus tracks.

The fourth full-length studio album by legendary American Pop/Rock singer.
The album peaked at number 71 on the US Billboard 200, though it fared better internationally, reaching the top 10 in Sweden and Switzerland, and the top 15 in Norway.
The album's lead Single, "Spanish Eddie", earned Branigan her sixth top-40 entry in two and a half years, peaking at number 40 on the Billboard Hot 100, and was moderately successful outside the United States. Subsequent Singles "Hold Me" and "I Found Someone" failed to make an impact, peaking at numbers 82 and 90 on the Billboard Hot 100, respectively. Nevertheless, "Hold Me" reached number 39 on Billboard's Hot Dance/Disco Club Play chart, while "I Found Someone" reached number 25 on the Hot Adult Contemporary chart.
The track "When the Heat Hits the Streets" was used in a television advertising campaign for the Chrysler Laser, with Chrysler serving as a sponsor for Branigan's 1985–1986 Hold Me tour (a Chrysler Laser was prominently displayed in the "Spanish Eddie" music video).

Liv Kristine has once again finally found her classic vocal verisimilitude. And the EP is more Metal than the band's two full-length releases (not heavier, but the sound is more accessible and more straight-forward). There was also more use of male vocals than "Vinland Saga". He actually appears in all songs, but he only sings a few lines here and there. Listening to this album makes you feel like you're out at sea during a storm. It really embraces the Viking theme much more than "Vinland Saga" did. This album has no fillers, and every song deserves a 10/10. Every track is unique and different from the previous.
This is a perfect album that its only flaw is that there aren't more songs!
Limited Edition to 5000 copies were released with a blue cover and are signed by all the band members.

The debut full-length studio album by legendary Norwegian/German Symphonic/Gothic/Folk Metal band.
The band was formed by Liv Kristine (ex- Theatre of Tragedy) and the entire line-up of Atrocity. Almost all vocals on the album are by Liv Kristine, but there are also some death growls by Alexander Krull (Liv’s husband at that time) of Atrocity. Alex Krull also produced the album.
"Lovelorn" is undeniably a Metal record, but it seems to be split between two main moods: Gothic/Symphonic Operatics, and a warmer Folksier slant, complete with acoustic instrumentation and Atmospheric world music focus.
Liv Kristine finally gets the chance to unfurl a bit and show off her singing chops. She still has that iconic breathiness that she eventually learned to not do so much. She handles her own vocal melodies and lyrics with much more confidence and gusto than anything else she's done before, and the instrumentation meets her power quite well. The band essentially adds rhythm and girth, but the real draw to this record is the melodies. Lead vocals, harmonies, and various layers of keyboard and piano frills, etc. This is where most of the appeal and drama lives in this album.
The material on "Lovelorn" is generally strong. The atmosphere is rich, and the melodies are strong and catchy, and the inclusion of the Alexander's beast to Liv's beauty on some of these songs adds harshness to balance out the ephemeral tone of the album. Every song does include the twanging of the Folk acoustics, but it doesn't infringe upon the darker soundscape that they've made, it just adds texture.
"Lovelorn" is a strong and pleasant record; it doesn't do anything radically new or different, but it was a successful launch of Liv Kristine as the face of a new band, in which she took more of an active role in the music she was singing. It was also a successful launch of this band as a whole.
Enhanced CD includes media section with video clip “Into Your Light”.
