The 9th full-length album by legendary American Technical Death/Groove Metal band.
One of the world's biggest Death Metal acts is still a commanding force of sonic destruction! Powerful, musical and yet distinctly Death Metal. What makes “Undead” work is a balance between the tooth grinding intensity of its blasts and the bone-strewn muck of its down-tempo bits.
It is their first album to feature drummer Kevin Talley and guitarist Rob Arnold who quit touring with the band and was replaced by Ola Englund the day the album was released. Rob Arnold recorded the bass on this album as Jeff Hughell joined after the recording sessions. This album marked the transition in the band's sound from a more traditional Death Metal sound to Technical Death Metal.
If you're into throat-grabbing riffs and groove-oriented extreme music...”Undead” is right up your alley!!

The fifth full-length studio album by Italian Heavy Metal band.
"The Serial Healer" is without a doubt for fans of old school Metal acts such as Judas Priest, Accept and Grave Digger, who will appreciate the continued dedication this band of northern Italian bards has for the genre.
With a long history in the Metal scene, "The Serial Healer" being band's fifth release in twenty-two years, it is not surprising that the Skanners have been able to hone their skills and craft solid Metal soundscapes. Band are led by two original members, guitarist Fabio Tenca and vocalist Claudio Pisoni. Claudio is graced with a voice that can only be compared to Metal God, Rob Halford. Like Rob, Claudio is able to grab a song with his voice and carry it to another level. Fabio’s guitar work is solid and extremely well performed throughout the album. Also, rounding out the foray are returning members, guitarist Walther Unterhauser and bassist Renato Olivairi, as well as newer drummer Kranauer Christian.
It does not get much better than the first five tracks of "The Serial Healer". From the heavy opening riff of "Soul Finder" through the gallop of "Iron Horse" it show that these guys have an undeniable passion for great hook laden traditional Metal. They keep things at a more controlled pace with "The Dream", bring to mind some slower Priest moments, before returning to their familiar onslaught with "Flash Razor" and "Beyond Darkness". "The Serial Healer" wraps up with the acoustic driven "Immortality".
It always surprises when a band of this talent seems to get overlooked by the Metal community. Claudio is an amazing vocalist and should be mentioned alongside the great vocalists of this form of Metal. If you get in the mood for some older styled Metal do yourself a favor and check out Skanners, even though they are not breaking new ground they are without a doubt building upon the solid foundation poured by the forefathers of Metal!!
Enhanced CD features bonus video "The Serial Healer Report".

The only Single release by Finnish Funeral Doom Metal band.
Skepticism are considered as pioneers of Funeral Doom Metal genre. Given their previously exposed penchant for lengthy, Ambient-tinged, deliberately composed works, it seems almost inevitable that the band would eventually choose to make a release composed of a single track. It's actually more surprising, that of their discography "Aes" is the only record in such a vein. That being said, it's good enough that the band probably doesn't need another such release under their belt. Of all the overambitious, massive releases in the history of Metal, "Aes" is one of the best, and one of the few that doesn't collapse under the weight of its own ambitions. "Aes" reached uncharted melodies and the music is bludgeoningly heavy and brutal for the amount of heart crushing feelings it brings with each listening.
Skepticism is a respected being by an open-minded group of elite Funeral Doom people that will very much be attracted to the appeal of this unique release. Innovative use of clear paper packaging and obscure layout make this pleasurable to your eyes as well as ears and mind.
Skepticism is one of the most truly neoclassical projects in Metal today, and "Aes" makes this clearer than possibly any of their other releases. If you're interested in something Progressive - you should absolutely acquire this disc and listen to it closely! With "Aes", Skepticism have achieved a level of compositional elegance and intelligence rarely matched elsewhere in modern music as a whole!!

Re-release of the third full-length album by Italian Ambient Black Metal band.
Fine cult Heathen Ambient/Folk Black Metal in the old Bathory style from ex-member of Opera IX! This is really a project of artist with the pseudonym M., who otherwise mainly relies on a session musicians.
The album combines Black Metal with Epic structures and dynamic atmospheric parts. Varied emotions and moods are translated into professional music. Four songs feature quite a variety Metal style from somber with acoustic guitar, that are done beautifully before the band picks up the pace with icy, raw guitars. The drumming is done extremely well with slow to mid paced drums. M. vocals show a range of emotion mainly using the Black Metal shrieks but there are also some deeper Death growls used in a few songs and even some clean vocal patterns and chants.
Raw Black Metal with melody, primeval chanting and ancient Folk influences. Atmospheric songs take the listener into the ancient world of myths and legends. "Grisera" is very solid Ambient Black Metal album that indulges only slight flaw that it is much too short. Definitly worth the price if you’re a fan of Folkish Black Metal!!

The thirteenth full-length studio album by cult British Folk Metal band.
Skyclad often referred to as “the originators of Folk Metal”. Formed in 1990 by Martin Walkyer (Sabbat) and Steve Ramsey (Satan/Pariah), the band gained extraordinary attention from both, the press and the public, with the now legendary debut album "The Wayward Sons Of Mother Earth" (1991) and, since then, has built up a solid reputation which led them to take part in some of the most important international Metal events (such as the renowned Dynamo, Wacken, Gods of Metal and Tuska Festivals) and share the stage with some of the most respected artists of their time.
"In The… All Together" mixes the usual Thrash/Speed Metal influences with the extraordinary Folk melodies that made the band famous all around the world, maintaining a fresh and dynamic approach which gives a strong live dimension to the new songs. This album was recorded completely by the band members. There are no 'guests' or orchestras etc. This was a deliberate move to try to keep the recordings as 'live and fresh' as possible, and one aimed at taking the band into the studio 'all together'. This wasn’t exactly a 'back to basics' strategy, as the songs on the new album are far from basic, as the band continues to experiment with odd timings and tunings. Another benefit of this approach is that Skyclad will be able to play more of the album songs live.
Another Skyclad album, which is reasonably filler-less, because even the 'iffy' songs are somewhat interesting, and they definitely can't be accused of being boring or forced, and after the last notes of "In The... All Together!" you're left with a hunger for more and keep repeating this CD's highlights!

Debut full-length album by the Russian Melodic Death/Black Metal band.
Skyfall was formed in 2003 by two talented musicians, Alexander and Nocturne.
They started playing following the canons of Sympho Black Metal. Hints of Death Metal could already be heard in their first demo-CD, and this trend continued with their subsequent albums. Their current style is a form of Blackened Death Metal, with shattering bass, tough guitars, fierce vocals and thundering percussion. Aggression, anguish, power and drive are the integral components of every note that this band produces. Professionalism at the highest level is evident in the quality of every performance. While listening to Skyfall lyrics, one finds oneself with a sense of melancholy, while the subconscious explores the hidden depths of despair. The lyrics complete the picture of the band's art, creating a sense of inevitable retribution.
If you in Death/Black Metal - this is for you!

Remastered re-release of the debut full-length album by American Alternative Hard Rock superband.
The superband consisting of Brother Cane and Queensrÿche band members, and was formed in 2000.
In 2000, the band Queensrÿche went on a break after finishing a 6-month tour in support of Q2K. Drummer Scott Rockenfield and guitarist Kelly Gray, who played in Queensrÿche at that time, were discussing what to do. Gray had worked with Brother Cane on a project, and remained close to singer and guitarist Damon Johnson and bassist Roman Glick. He called Johnson in the summer of 2000, and suggested him to give Rockenfield a call. Rockenfield knew of the band, but never met them. The name "Slave To The System" describes the effect of corporate minds on an artist's music, and hints at the band members' dissatisfaction with the record industry. The name was coined by Gray even before the band members first met.
The band sent demos to various record labels trying to negotiate a record deal. In 2002, they decided to release the album on their own. They independently released the album "Slave To The System" in 2002. The music consists both the old and new schools of Rock and Metal, including Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Thin Lizzy, Audioslave and Velvet Revolver influences.
The band played one show in Tennessee and another Seattle after this release. In February 2004, Heard left for undisclosed reasons, and they continued as a four-piece.
Eventually in 2005, the band got signed to Spitfire Records. The original release was remixed and remastered by Spitfire, before they released it on February 21, 2006. The re-release included two new songs, "Cruise Out of Control" and "Ragdoll", featuring Gray on vocals. It received radio play and its sales got the album up to number 25 on the charts.

The debut full-length studio album by legendary American Thrash Metal band.
Slayer’s debut is still regarded as a milestone for a new way of doing Metal. This new way was a start of the real Thrash Metal. This album is, along with “Kill ‘Em All”, “Killing Is My Business… And My Business Is Good” and “Bonded By Blood”, an important sign of the new growing scene. Slayer, grown up with Venom and true Heavy Metal, created a piece of history, a must for every Metal kid. And the story begins right here… Four guys, that wanted to play fast and brutal, join together and, after few demos, they recorded the first album, “Show No Mercy” - ten tracks of pure Speed/Thrash Metal.
Brian Slagel signed the band to Metal Blade, after watching their performing of the song "Phantom of the Opera" by Iron Maiden. The band was forced to self-finance their debut album, combining the savings of vocalist Tom Araya, who was employed as a respiratory therapist, and money borrowed from guitarist Kerry King's father. Touring extensively promoting the album, the band brought close friends and family members along the trip, who helped backstage with lighting and sound.
The album was recorded & mixed in November 1983 at Track Record Studios and released a month later. It took only eight hours to record (!!!), to cut down studio costs, which explains the poor production quality. Although criticized for poor production quality, "Show No Mercy" became Metal Blade Records' highest selling release!
Nothing commercial, nothing accessible - just pure Thrash f***ing Metal of the highest order, with a steroidal injection of NWOBHM.
