МУЗИКА

The tenth full-length studio album by the cult Swedish Progressive Rock/Metal/Jazz/Fusion band.
The album was recorded in early 2011 at Atlantis/Metronome Studios in Stockholm and produced by Mikael Åkerfeldt, engineered by Janne Hansson, and mixed by Steven Wilson (Porcupine Tree, King Crimson). The album signals a departure from the musical style of Opeth's past albums, being one of only two albums by the band not to feature Åkerfeldt's signature Death growls (the other being "Damnation"). "Heritage" finds the Swedish band abandoning Death Metal: no growled vocals, no blistering fast power riffs and no blastbeats.
“Heritage” is easily Opeth's most musically adventurous recording. Written primarily by vocalist/guitarist Mikael Åkerfeldt, these ten songs are drenched in instrumental interludes, knotty key and chord changes, shifting time signatures, clean vocals, and a keyboard-heavy instrumentation that includes Mellotrons, Rhodes pianos and Hammond organs (ironic since keyboardist Per Wiberg left the band after "Heritage" was completed).
Opening with the title track, a haunting solo piano instrumental, it careens into the explosive "The Devil's Orchard", with spectacular, arpeggiatic guitar work by Fredrik Åkesson and matching drums by Martin Axenrot. With a huge, swirling B-3 in the backdrop, it melds Progressive Metal to Prog Rock, with Åkerfeldt's clear, clean singing. "I Feel the Dark" marries Åkerfeldt's classical guitar to piano, flute, a droning Martin Mendez bassline, and double-timed, quietly tense drum kit work. "Slither" sounds like Motörhead meeting early-'70s Deep Purple. "Nepenthe" begins as a ballad but shifts toward Jazz-Rock in the instrumental break before finding its way back to a middle ground with sparse instrumentation and taut dynamics. "Haxprogress" draws real inspiration from King Crimson; Mellotrons and nylon-string guitars give way to Åkerfeldt's crooning, thundering bass-lines, and syncopated drums. At eight-and-a-half minutes, "Famine" is the album's most abstract cut, with guest Alex Acuña adding Latin percussion to the mix, creating spaciousness in a long intro before giving way to colliding Prog Rock at the seam where King Crimson's "Larks Tongues in Aspic, Pt. 2" meets Jethro Tull's "Thick as a Brick." "The Lines in My Hand" is the set's most aggressive cut, with a deeply satisfying guitar crunch. "Folklore," with its myriad instrumental and vocal parts, complex melody, and breakbeats, comes off as an eight-minute suite before closing with another Jazz- and Rolk-inflected instrumental entitled "Marrow of the Earth."
Love it or hate it, "Heritage", for its many excesses (and stellar conception and execution) is a brave album. It opens the door for Opeth to pursue many new directions and reinvent themselves as a band.
Album has a critical and commercial success, and sold 19,000 units in the United States in its debut week, charting at number 19 on the Billboard 200.
Approached with an open mind, "Heritage' will certainly prove a rewarding listen for most experienced fans of the band, an album containing all the signature twists & turns that has become Opeth's trademark, albeit in a way totally new for the band. "Heritage" is arguably the band's 10th magnum opus in it's now 20 plus year career and without a doubt represent the grandest vision yet captured on an Opeth album!

The debut full-length studio album by Swedish Melodic Heavy Metal/Hard Rock/AOR band.
A nice blend of Scandinavian AOR with some melodic Metal pinches and a great voice, made just for making AOR music. Some virtuoso guitar parts, beautiful melodies and heartbreaking ballads are the ingredients of this album.
"Distant Encounters" is the kind of album you like being around, digging its music or not. It has class, it shows dignity in songwriting, it's full of melodic moments for the relative base and seems to be based on neat motives and clean intentions.
The album will also appeal someone that has nothing to do with the AOR music scene, so imagine that for sure will be a great album for all AOR fans!

Black/Death Metal band from U.S. with members from Deicide (Steve Asheim!!! and Kevin Quirion), ex-Tardy Brothers (John Li) and Council of the Fallen (Scott Patrick, Steve Asheim, Kevin Quirion).
ORDER OF ENNEAD, hailing from the legendary Tampa, FL, play a unique style of extreme metal. Blending elements of death and black metal seamlessly together with emphasis on songwriting and structure. The well trained ear can also pick up the distant influence of the days of thrash. Not forgotten is the ever elusive guitar solo that at times is melodic and other times shredding. Lyrically Order Of Ennead stand apart from the typical death or black metal topics.

The debut full-length studio album by Spanish Atmospheric Funeral Doom Metal one-man-band.
The project of Angel Chicote, who has played or play in bands like Graveyard Of Souls, Mass Burial, Ad Nebula Nigra, Ultimo Gobierno, Sinergia, etc, all inside the Extreme music. Ornamentos del Miedo was born in mid-2017 as the need to strip the reality of all ornaments and mirages that we have built to adopt us, to a miserable existence across a deep and dark sound.
Ornamentos del Miedo, it is a trip to the depths of the subconscious, where truth exists naked and unpolluted by the ego and survival instinct. It is an oneiric experience where self-imposed reality fades it. Reflections on life and death. Dark and deep sound like the anguish of existing. For lovers of bands with their own sound.
The Spaniards sound very matured on this album. Nothing feels forced or rushed. Everything is patient, well-planned, and well-executed. There’s a great deal of beauty, emotion, sadness, and hatred in this music without there being too much overlap or there being chunky, awkward transitions. Musically speaking, this is a seriously impressive Funeral Doom release. The parallels that can be drawn from the subtle transitions from vulnerable to vengeful are entirely relatable in life, and the band has captured such effortlessly.
Great riffs, soaring solos, effortless control of songs, captivating atmosphere - Ornamentos Del Miedo attempt to bridge the gap between beautiful and terrifying. A must for any Funeral Doom fans out there!

The first live album by legendary Israeli Middle Eastern Folk/Progressive Metal band.
"The Road To Or Shalem. Live At The Reading 3, Tel-Aviv" is a well-produced live album, which primarily features songs from their albums "Mabool – The Story Of The Three Sons Of Seven" and "The Never Ending Way Of ORwarriOR". It is also the last professional recording of the band to include both of their original guitarists, Yossi Sassi Sa'aron and Matti Svatizky, who helped shape the distinctive sound of Orphaned Land with their mastery of innovative oriental guitar riffs. This adds an extra level of significance to the release.
The production of this show is worth praising. In addition to the band, there are several special guests (including Steven Wilson of Porcupine Tree) and various session musicians playing a variety of instruments, such as percussion, flute, bouzouki, and more. These elements are all perfectly blended with the "traditional" Metal instrumentation of Orphaned Land, resulting in a rich and diverse sound that brings the songs to life.
"The Road To Or Shalem. Live At The Reading 3, Tel-Aviv" is a quality live album featuring some of the greatest songs Orphaned Land has written. Its performances and production are top-notch, capturing the atmosphere of a live show in an authentic yet highly professional way. If you are a fan of Orphaned Land, or simply someone looking to explore something original in the Metal world, you should definitely get this record!

The second full-length studio album by cult Brazilian Heavy Metal band.
One of the first real Metal bands from the south of Brazil. They were founded in 1986, but started with playing covers, before recorded a demo in Portuguese in 1988. This demo includes also the song "Orquídea Negra", which they never released again, as it is a cover song from the Folk Brazilian singer Zé Ramalho, and they never got the permission to use it officially.
After many line-up changes, only singer Andreé Graebin was left from the original line-up. Only in 1992 they managed to release their first album, "Who's Dead?", now in English. It was released by small label Krig-há-Bandôlo Records, with a bad distribution.
In 1994, band recorded the second album, but did not find a company. In 1995 the singer, which was the last original member of the band, leaves the band. Orquídea Negra finally self-released their second album in 1996.
The third album, "Blood Of The Gods", was released by Secret Service Records and Metal Soldiers Records with various bonus tracks.

Re-release of the debut full-length album by the Dutch Doom/Sludge Metal band.
Ortega is a four-piece Sludge/Doom band from the north of The Netherlands. Four men telling a tale of the sea, musically depicted in a broad and visual manner. Ortega's sound is best described as Doom Metal balanced with spherical soundscapes, brought together with slow and heavy riffs.
Everything flows smoothly, and sounds great. It's a mix of a variety of styles, but one they've managed to master and make their own.
It’s rare to find a truly immersive experience in music that strikes a balance between credible musical longevity and pure entertainment. "1634" – it's a Post Doom, with mildly Gothic influences and maybe some Sludgy Rock elements. The end product is a hypnotic opus with using of other musical instruments like the drifting violins and plenty of repetition feeds into the feeling of undulating waves and the endless sea. 
"1634" was originally released by band in 2010 as a concept-album, packaged in a handmade cover CD limited to 100 copies. The album is now released for the first time on CD limited to 1000 copies in a spot-varnished digipack.
Either way "1634" is all too good to miss, superb, and strongly recommend! Suggest a double dose of brandy, rum or whatever else takes your fancy, settle yourself in a quiet room with the lights turned down low and prepare for the voyage!!

The third full-length studio album by American Progressive Rock band.
O.S.I.'s (Office of Strategic Influence) third album is a Prog-Metal outing that has a strong Alt Rock influence. No one will accuse "Blood" of going out of its way to sound like Dream Theater, which is ironic in light of the fact that the co-leaders on this 2009 release are singer/keyboardist Kevin Moore (formerly of Dream Theater) and guitarist/keyboardist Jim Matheos (of Fates Warning fame).
Prog-Metal often has an overt Power Metal influence; "Blood"'s approach, however, is Pink Floyd and King Crimson by way of Radiohead, Nirvana, Grunge, Alt-Metal and Alt-Rock. Instead of bright, shiny '70s/'80s-like guitars, we're talking chug-chug riffs and downtuned guitars. "Blood" has its aggressive, forceful moments, but even so, the material is quite melodic and, most of the time, O.S.I. are moody and Darkly Atmospheric more than anything. Some of that moodiness comes from O.S.I.'s appreciation of Pink Floyd and King Crimson, but some of it comes from their appreciation of Radiohead. So there is no getting around the fact that this 47-minute CD draws its inspiration from different eras and different generations of Rock.
Some headbangers, who know Moore from Dream Theater and Matheos from Fates Warning, might be surprised by how much Alternative appeal "Blood" has, but that appeal is a plus on an album that falls short of earth-shattering but is still solid and worthwhile.

The debut full-length album by Greek Hard Rock/Heavy Metal band.
Melodic Rock mostly fairly tame and predictable, the type of music that doesn't offend or offer many surprises. But when it's done correctly it can also be one of the most rewarding genres, and Outloud have done it right!
The music on "We'll Rock You To Hell And Back Again!" is huge, and the type of Arena Rock that could blow the roof off even the largest venue!!
"What I Need" and the first single "We Run" kick off the CD, and arguably represents the best one-two punch put to disc that year. "What I Need" especially Rocks with its rapid-fire drumming and soaring vocals - picture the best from Europe, Pole Position and Sargant Fury. To put everything in perspective, "Tonite" pales in comparison to those first two tracks yet would be one the best songs on almost any album put out that year!
No doubt, this CD is great from beginning to end, it's the type of bombastic sound that Bon Jovi likely wishes they could still dream up. And it's all done by a relatively new band which is amazing in itself. The story behind Outloud is that Nightwish and Firewind guitarist Bob Katsionis was teaching fellow musician Tony Kash, who was coming up with some impressive riffs. Katsionis then recruited Talon vocalist, Chandler Mogel, and his drumming band-mate Mark Cross to put together the Outloud venture. Even though the original recordings got deleted and the band had to start over from scratch, the whole project has turned out to be the work of genius. Not only do the afore mentioned tracks Rock, but also check out the killer riffs in "Search For The Truth", the unrelenting "Breathing Fire" and the epic "Out In The Night".
In 2009 Outloud have set the bar for Melodic Metal - and they've set it high! "We'll Rock You To Hell And Back Again!" is perfect in almost every sense, offering Hard Rock tracks, ballads, and a musicianship that is top-notch - it's hard to even imagine how successful this band would have been if they arrived twenty years earlier!! Taking a trip to hell and back isn't supposed to be this satisfying!!!

The twentieth full-length studio album by legendary American Thrash Metal band.
It is the band's first studio album in four years, following "The Wings Of War" (2019), the longest gap between studio albums for the band. The release date of "Scorched" was postponed on numerous occasions, partly due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The album was intended to be released in April 2021, but it was soon pushed back to the summer or fall of 2021, and then later to early 2022, and finally to the spring of 2023.
As per usual, frontman Bobby "Blitz" Elsworth offers up his happy-go-lucky, sand paper scowl and inventively catchy vocal lines. Dave Linsk's guitar leads are well-sculpted, smartly phrased and fall somewhere between guitar god shred and virtuoso juke joint sloppiness. And bass players everywhere who feel misunderstood and overlooked can continue to rally around Carlo "D.D." Verni, his ball-punching tone, prominence in the mix and the way he drives many of the riffs/songs with a thick urban twang.
For four decades, Overkill have been the trailblazers in producing some of the most signature moments in the world of Metal. Today, the New Jersey Thrash legends bludgeon your ears with their twentieth studio album, entitled "Scorched"!

The nineteenth full-length studio album by legendary American Thrash Metal band.
The band's first album to feature drummer Jason Bittner, making it their first one without Ron Lipnicki since "ReliXIV" (2005), as he had left Overkill shortly after the release of its predecessor "The Grinding Wheel" (2017).
Overkill is still relevant in the Metal scene, and their albums are always a joy to listen to. There’s no end in sight for their soon-to-be forty-year career, and their consistency is unmatched in the Thrash ranks. If you’re already a fan of Bobby and his gang, there are plenty of elements on "The Wings Of War" to enjoy. If you’re new to them, this album is quite a gateway into the realms of the band.
The album peaked at number 158 on the chart, making it Overkill's third-lowest chart position, behind "Taking Over" and "Ironbound". However, "The Wings Of War" was well-received in Europe, particularly on the German charts, where it debuted at number five, making it Overkill's highest-ever chart position.

The second remastered and the first remixed re-release of the third full-length studio album by the legendary British Heavy Metal/Hard Rock band.
The album features former Mickey Ratt and Rough Cutt guitarist Jake E. Lee, who replaced guitarist Randy Rhoads who had been killed a year earlier in a plane crash.
The album peaked at number 19 on the Billboard 200 album chart and within several weeks of release was certified Gold for over 500.000 sales in the United States. To date, it has sold over 3.000.000 copies in the US In the UK, it was the third of four Osbourne albums to attain Silver certification (60.000 units sold) by the British Phonographic Industry, achieving this in January 1984.
The album was remastered and released for the first time in 1995.
"Bark At The Moon" was re-issued again in 2002, although this version was actually a new remix of the album. This 2002 remixed version of the album has met with mixed reaction; many elements found in the original mix are not present in the remix, namely several lead guitar parts. In addition, the song "You're No Different" has an alternate ending and "Centre of Eternity" has an altered intro segment. This edition also includes the bonus tracks "Spiders" and "One Up the 'B' Side".
