Debut full-length album by Canadian Heavy Metal band.
It's amazing when local underground bands creating and writing new original material and not just slogging it out on the local bar scene doing covers. To create an independent debut album takes time, hard-work and commitment, characteristics that are sometimes hard to come by, let alone trying to pay for the thing. It’s guys like Stinger that keep the scene going.
Take a heavy dose of Iron Maiden and Judas Priest, mix it with the vocals of Chuck Billy during "Practice What You Preach", inject it with a Heavy 90s atmosphere, throw in a bit of Thrash, and shove some classic solos up its ass. And what you get is Stinger’s debut masterpiece, "Manic Depressor"!
The well-produced, eleven cuts span just under an hour of good time head-banging fun. Musically, Stinger spans a number of sounds with ease and proficiency. It’s not just a retro sound but the tone is a bit more modern at times. All those dissimilar styles blend nicely into something quite unique. There are a few slower moments, like the middle section of "Harmantra" that bleeds into some excellent soloing. Literally every single track is a magnificent example of excellent songwriting, tight musicianship and fantastic awesomeness.
This is a confident, mature debut album that will turn a few heads.  This is really masterpiece! If you’re a fan of good music, you won’t regret it!!

The second full-length studio album by Swedish Melodic Heavy Metal band.
Formed by longtime members of the Swedish underground metal scene, Stonelake presents melodic Metal, which has a distinctly melancholy edge underneath its catchy, accessible surface.
All songs contain a good dose of synths; even on the faster-paced, aggressive numbers such as "Body Talk" and "Rest My Eyes on You". The band goes all 80's on "Magic Signs" in the vein of Dokken, but the staccato riffery and drumming belies the comparison towards the middle. There are also ballads on the album: "Words Are Not Enough" and "One Love One Heart" are both punctuated by cool guitar arpeggios, soaring vocals, and ever-present synth layering.
Stonelake's main duo comprises of Jan Akesson and Peter Grundstrom. They've known each other for many years, and this is obvious while listening to the album, since there's profound chemistry between them two. This Swedish band has already released one album in prior, "Reincarnation".
Enlisting the services of Jaime Salazar on drums, "World Entry" sees the quartet flirting on-the-edge with melodic Hard Rock the Scandinavian way. Pompous keyboards, high-pitched vocals from Grundstrom and furious guitar themes by Akesson leave the band on top of trying to perform something more than just Hard 'n' Heavy music. As if TNT, Journey, heavy Boston, 80's Deep Purple and Jacob's Dream would jam on a beautiful spring day. The album features various tempos and, of course, includes a very good ballad called "Words Are Not Enough". On the other hand, tracks like "Magic Signs" will nail you down at first hearing. The solo work provided by Akesson is quite notable, while Grundstrom uses his voice with much of experience; exchanging fury and passion anyway he wants it. To hell and back again: the use of 'personality' keys in this album gradually rises to be the strong ace of "World Entry". Some will surely see enough of a Dream Theater influence in the keys' arrangement, and there seems to be a very good reason for this.
"World Entry" is not a typical album, genre-free. It bears the unique charisma of, gradually, winning over your ears. Stonelake seems to be a rather hard working band in terms of composing/recording. And the question is: do you want to get away with this fact? Even Euro Power Metal fans will like this album!

The best Hard Rock band to ever come out of Indianapolis. Jason Stonewall and Joe Joe Weekends songwriting is at its best throughout this CD.

The debut full-length album by Israeli Progressive Rock/Metal band.
Founded as a school Rock-band in 1999, Stormy Atmosphere stepped into the Progressive genre in 2002. Since then it has been self-promoted by the band members, setting shows and festivals with other local bands and several booking agencies.
Stormy Atmosphere delivered a fine debut album of the kind that should find favour amongst fans of mainstream oriented Metal such as Nightwish but with a taste and desire for material of a somewhat more sophisticated nature. Dual male and female vocals with theatrical and operatic delivery are something of a cornerstone feature, supplemented by a varied musical backdrop that touches upon ballad oriented Rock, Folk music and Power Metal in addition to accessible Progressive Metal. A band and an album well worth taking note of by those who find this description tantalizing.
The unlikely use of Folk instruments, the Progressive music, the female and male vocals, and the melodic make this album one of the best releases of the year. This is a masterpiece!!

The second full-length album by Israeli Progressive Metal band.
A story-based Progressive Metal with Gothic Metal elements, strong male vocals with gentle power of female Operatic voice, and polyrhythmic melodies with harsh Metal riffs will draw the listener into the atmosphere of the story and make him search further.
The fully conceptual album story is about a man who is put in jail for the reason that remains a mystery to the listener. To deal with harshness of prison life, the hero reads specific books, in which he finds freedom and salvation. There are six literature pieces the album is based on: “Stranger in a Strange Land” by Robert A. Heinlein, “The Count of Monte Cristo” by Alexandre Dumas, “Crime and Punishment” by Fyodor Dostoevsky, “The Master and Margarita” by Mikhail Bulgakov, “The Picture of Dorian Grey” by Oscar Wilde, and “Faust” by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.

The debut full-length album by Italian Horror/Heavy/Thrash Metal band.
Story Of Jade plays a heavy form of Thrash Metal, with some references to more extreme variants of the genre that are present throughout the album. The horror and gore themes of the music is immediately obvious right from the start, with the whispered vocals at the beginning of "Self-Inflicted Masterpiece" giving a strong hint to the lyrical direction of the album. As the first riffs begin, you'll pleasantly surprised by the grooviness in the music. This could actually have the potential to be a kickass ride ahead.
Vocalist Bapho Matt alternates between an high-pitched bark, Death growls and clean vocals, displaying his wide range of vocal techniques. In particular, the clean singing would probably charm fans of Glam/Shock rock bands such as Alice Cooper or Wednesday 13, with his style sounding like a more gruff version of the aforementioned vocalists. Throw into that the old-school feel that the band has managed to conjure with the nice blend of Heavy Metal, Thrash Metal and Rock 'n' Roll inspired guitar riffs. Apart from that, these are often punctuated with melodic Death Metal riffing patterns and pinch harmonics like on Afterlife Confusion, making the music all the more catchy and easily gets listeners to headbang to the music, despite the mostly mid-paced tempo that the band tends to move at. Songs like "Afterlife Confusion" even have a slight Iron Maiden touch, with the lead guitar lines reminding listeners of their post-reunion material, and this only serves to make things more enjoyable. The solos of guitarists Matt and A.G. are technical yet manage to retain that melodic edge, blending in nicely to the foundations upon which the music of Story Of Jade are built upon. Songs like "C. F. Virus S01" also displays the innovative use of guitar effects, with the guitarists using artificial harmonics to create a ECG sound effect. The usage of a child singing towards the end of "J.A.D.E." also provides that adorable/haunting dichotomy, messing with the listener's head. There are also heavier moments on the album, such as those on "H.M.K.M.", which include Crossover/Thrash Metal-styled shouting at the background, ensuring that the element of fun is constantly remains in the music.
If one ever wondered what 80s-styled Glam or Shock Rock would sound like if put into a more Extreme mode, perhaps Story Of Jade's "The Damned Next Door" could be the perfect answer, with the heavy yet melodic music present, and the horror-themed lyrics!

The third full-length album by cult Italian Heavy Metal band.
The cult band of 80’s Underground returns with the new album!
In the 80s Strana Officina had something like an insider status in Italy. They was one of a few Italian bands to surface in the early eighties, with a debut EP in 1984 and a couple other releases later in the decade.
Sadly, two core members of the band, brothers Fabio and Roberto Cappanera, were killed in a car crash in 1993, which of course was a serious blow to the band. However, in what must be one of the more uplifting stories in Metal, the sons of the two men (Dario, son of Fabio, and Rolando, son of Roberto) eventually joined with original members Enzo Mascolo and Daniele Ancillotti, and the band was back in action in honor of the two fathers, the sons even playing the same instruments as their dads did!
In 2007 "The Faith" album was released, a really strong effort to show the old songs new recorded with a better sound. This album is as recommended as the original albums.
In 2008 the band made the error to sign with the rip-off guy Alessandro from Molten Metal Productions/Wild Side Music for an LP-rerelease of the old albums. The owner of this "label" not only ripped off the band but also all distributors and mailorders, so this 2008 LP-rerelease is nothing more than a hard to get bootleg.
For luck Strana Officina in 2010 went back to MyGraveyard Records and "Rising To The Call" is again a great album recommended to all fans of Melodic Heavy Metal.From the vocals to the musical ability, from sound to songwriting, the album is for sure Italys strongest Metal release in 2010 so far, so all other bands have a peak to climb! Highly recommended!!

The 11th full-length album by legendary Finnish Melodic Power Metal band.
This release of Stratovarius came after a highly troubled period for the band in 2004, during which they temporarily split up following a nervous breakdown suffered by Tolkki. After a year-long hiatus, they reunited in 2005 and embarked upon a worldwide tour for the album, playing for the first time in the United States and Canada.
Stylistically the album displays a dramatically noticeable shift from the Symphonic Power Metal sound of previous albums: the songs are more hard-edged and slower, with Tolkki's signature Neo-classical Shred soloing almost completely absent. Keyboardist Jens Johansson's role is particularly restricted, as well as Jörg Michael's drumming, which features hardly any of his signature double bass playing. Singer Timo Kotipelto also attempts a different vocal approach, mostly avoiding his usual high vocal range. Tolkki has since stated in interviews that he was unsatisfied with the end result of the album, due to it being too far removed from the band's true style.
The album is the last to feature the band's longest-standing line-up which had been consistent since “Episode” (1996), as bassist Jari Kainulainen would leave Stratovarius later in the year, followed by guitarist and bandleader Timo Tolkki in 2008.
Album reached #4 on that year's Finnish albums chart and remained charted for four weeks, as well as #52 on the Italian albums chart, where it remained charted for one week.

First re-release of the debut full-length studio album by cult Brazilian Speed/Heavy Metal band.
The first Brazilian Metal album ever!
Formed in 1974 by the encounter of the future members of the band in a school, they were the first Brazilian Metal band in the world, and also the first to release an album. Their career began by playing songs by artists such as Rolling Stones, Nazareth, Sweet, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple and other similar bands. The first concert of the band, omitting various live performances for the anniversaries of the school, occurred in 1977. In 1978 the band began to work on their first piece, under the influence of Metal monsters such as Judas Priest, Saxon and Iron Maiden, sung both in English and in Portuguese, but due to the desire of the fans who wanted to understand the lyrics, all lyrics were rewritten in Portuguese.
The first album was released in 1982, called simply "Stress". The album mostly consisted of a quite heavy brand of Speed Metal, occasionally bordering on Thrash Metal, in some parts accompanied by Heavy Metal and Hard Rock influences. The release of the album followed with a major success for the band, for example the song "O Oráculo do Judas" was one of the most successful songs on radio stations in Rio de Janeiro, making the band gather many fans and putting it under the attention of Brazilian media.

First time on CD, the second full-length studio album by cult Brazilian Speed/Heavy Metal band.
Originally, the album was released in 1985 on LP only, called “Flor Atômica”.
Pure Heavy Metal from the best times, Stress is one big mix of early Judas Priest, Saxon, sometimes Classic Rock bands like Deep Purple. Add to everything a bit more speed, good solos and a high vocal, and you’ve got Atomic Flower.
Everything is played here the way it should be played- Stress serves us just a classic, simple and solid Heavy Metal. This album is a Heavy Metal to it’s core.
Everything there goes with a great production. Nice, hearable bass sound makes everything sounds more natural. And solos... that amazing solos of Alex Magnum!..
Re-edition gives to us also some demos and live material. In addition, incredible booklet includes a Stress’ history and a lot of photos, posters and materials from the time, when the band was just starting.

Debut full-length album by Israeli Thrash Metal band.
Old School Thrash Metal full of aggression, speed and unique style taking his inspiration at the 80s and 90s Metal and all this straight from the hottest point of the planet where the war never stops!
Impregnated by hot sun, perspiration and rocket explosions, the album carries a clear insatiable maximalism and aggression from the first chord.
Well dedicated rhythm section, piercing solos and riffs, screaming and demonic growl, provocative, ignorant political-correctness lyrics - all this you'll find on "On The Aim".
For fans of: Sodom, Destruction, Exodus, Punk and Rock'n'Roll!!

Debut full-length album by French Black Metal band.
Strynn’s Black Metal is cold and without concessions. It evokes pain, despair, hatred. The alternation of a curt and hoarse male voice and a deep and sharp female voice emphasize on the duality between distress and violence. The atmosphere which breaks out is therefore dark, sometimes aggressive, with no frills.
Midtempo drums and darkly melodic textures are draped across the framework of the album's opener, "Awakening". A steady, repetitive diet of hypnotic riffs populate the song's center but the drumbeat becomes a bit tiresome. "Burial" employs a similar beat, though sped up slightly to match the faster, more insistent riffs and deathly shrieks. It's reminds a bit of Kampfar and then the song erupts into intense gusts of freezing Black Metal. "Uncreation" however makes a more sinister impact in your ears as the riffs are creative and strike a delicate balance between atmospheric passages and memorably diabolical movements. "Emptiness" streams out like a fiery meteorite, exploding with vengeance during its initial section. It then settles into midtempo melodies and grim vocals that recall shades of early Samael. Frosty strumming on the guitar and frigid melodic riffing set the stage for a stormier, brooding song with Burnt. The speedy melodies return and then are folded into some midtempo riffs that bring to mind synthless Gehenna from their "First Spell" era. As the album continues forward, the songs begin to blend into one another.
"Decadence" sees Strynn feeling themselves out but not really setting themselves apart from the scene. Solid album that will leave you with a lasting impression!
