First European re-release of the nineteenth full-length studio album by the legendary American Shock Rock/Hard Rock/Glam Metal singer.
The 80s had been a bad time for Alice Cooper. Nondescript albums and failed attempts at flirting with other musical tendencies had left the Shock King dangerously close to losing most of the fanbase he had garnered in the 70s. Even the perfectly decent albums, like 1985’s "Constrictor", failed to convince or impress the fans, who longed for the halcyon days of "Killer". A comeback of sorts was made with 1988’s "Trash", an album that showed Alice revitalized and updated for the new decade, and flirting with the “in” sounds of the late 80s, namely Glam Rock. In view of that album’s acceptance and success, the exact same template was used for "Trash"’s follow-up, 1991s "Hey Stoopid". The results were, again, above average, even if this album is not as highly regarded as its predecessor.
For "Hey Stoopid", Alice takes his cues from what was still popular at the time: the vibrant, gushy, shiny Hard Rock of bands like Poison, Warrant or Firehouse. It comes as no surprise, then, that "Burning Our Bed" comes across as something Guns’n’Roses may have written at the time, or that the overall sound relies heavily on the huge crunchy riffs, sweeping keyboards and shouty backing vocals of Glam Rock, while endowing them with an extra dosage of class.
Experienced artist and master songwriter that he is, Alice surrounds himself with the cream of the Hard Rock crop this time around. His “regular” band consists of guitarist Stef Burns, bassist Hugh McDonald, drummer Mickey Curry and keyboardists Robert Bailey and John Webster. However, the album is absolutely littered with guest appearances, including: Slash, Joe Satriani, Vinnie Moore and Steve Vai, Motley Crue’s Nikki Sixx and Mick Mars (who co-wrote “Die For You”), plus Ozzy Osbourne providing backing vocals on the album’s title track. Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, provided the spoken word part on “Feed My Frankenstein”, a song co-written by Zodiac Mindwarp.
The album was produced by Peter Collins, famed for his work with Rush and Queensyrche, among many others. The album featured three hit singles: the title track, “Love’s A Loaded Gun” and “Feed My Frankenstein” (the latter was performed in the 1992 comedy film "Wayne’s World", in which Alice also starred).
"Hey Stoopid" is heavily recommended to not only Alice fans, but Hard Rockers in general.

The fourth full-length studio album by the legendary American Psychedelic/Hard Rock band.
Following up the breakthrough success of "Love It to Death", Alice Cooper back with another album released the same year, producer again by Bob Ezrin.
The band's stage show dealt with the macabre, and such disturbing tracks as "Dead Babies" and the title track fit in perfectly. Other songs were even more exceptional, such as the perennial barnstorming concert standard "Under My Wheels", the melodic yet gritty "Be My Lover", and the tribute to their fallen friend Jim Morrison, "Desperado". The long and winding "Halo of Flies" correctly hinted that the band would be tackling more complex song structures on future albums, while "You Drive Me Nervous" and "Yeah, Yeah, Yeah" showed that Alice Cooper hadn't completely abandoned their early Garage Rock direction.
“Killer” is the third-most-represented album in Alice Cooper’s concert set-lists behind “Welcome To My Nightmare” and “Billion Dollar Babies”. With "Killer", they became one of the world's top Rock bands and concert attractions; it rewarded them as being among the most notorious and misunderstood entertainers, thoroughly despised by grownups!
The album reached number 21 on the Billboard 200 album chart, and the two singles "Under My Wheels" and "Be My Lover" made the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Johnny Rotten of the Sex Pistols and Public Image Ltd. called “Killer” the greatest Rock album of all time.
Cut out from the original analog master tapes. All packaging replicated to the finest detail. Pressed with more care than ever. 180g gatefold vinyl.

The album features many guest performances including Jon Bon Jovi, Stiv Bators, Steven Tyler, as well as singer/guitarist Kane Roberts, who left Cooper's band in 1988. Songwriting contributions were also made by Joan Jett, Diane Warren, Jon Bon Jovi, and Richie Sambora.
Probably, the best Cooper’s album and one of the best albums in Hard Rock/Heavy Metal history.

The second re-release of the tenth full-length studio album by legendary Swedish Melodic Death Metal band.
After nine albums spent plundering, pillaging, and hoisting their horns of mead against the backdrop of a smoke-filled, viscera-stained battlefield, it's a wonder that Amon Amarth took so long to deliver a proper concept album. The band's first concept record in their storied career tells a tragic tale of love and revenge, backed by the Swedes' trademark melodic, anthemic Metal, which was produced and mixed once again by Andy Sneap (Megadeth, Testament, Accept). The epic original story is set in the world of the Jomsvikings, the legendary order of mercenary Vikings.
Relentlessly brutish, yet never bereft of melody, "Jomsviking" doesn't deviate from the veteran Metal horde's tried-and-true foundation of punishing double-kick drums, Iron Maiden-esque guitarmonies, and gutter-scooped vocals, but it does toss in some cinematic flair to help frame the story – the band even brought in Doro Pesch to play the Lagertha to Johan Hegg's Ragnar on the penultimate neck-snapper "A Dream That Cannot Be". While long-time fans might be a bit thrown off by some of the more melodic Traditional Metal elements throughout "Jomsviking", the music is well suited to both the concept's narrative and a natural evolution of Amon Amarth's more well known style.

The second re-release of the debut full-length studio album by legendary Swedish Melodic Death Metal band.
When a band is named after the Mountain of Doom in Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, you're pretty much guaranteed Epic Metal at its most extravagant. But despite their lyrical bent (including Dungeons & Dragons titles like "Ride for Vengeance", "Victorious March", and "The Dragons' Flight Across the Waves"), Sweden's Amon Amarth eschews the expected Germanic Power Metal usually associated with such subject for brutally intense Scandinavian Death Metal. Firmly rooted in the At the Gates school, the band doesn't really break any new ground here. But they get the job done with plenty of spirit, more than competent songwriting, and excellent musicianship - most notably from future Opeth drummer Martin Lopez. The song that bears the band's namesake is probably the most memorable, as it contains the chaotic noises of battle, the screams of the dying, and much sword-clashing to boot. Ultimately, Amon Amarth's war hymns often take themselves a bit too seriously and are bound to provoke either delirious head-banging or irresistible laughter, but what else would you expect from good Heavy Metal?

The second re-release of the debut full-length studio album by legendary Swedish Melodic Death Metal band. When a band is named after the Mountain of Doom in Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, you're pretty much guaranteed Epic Metal at its most extravagant. But despite their lyrical bent (includ..

The third re-release of the second full-length studio album by legendary Swedish Melodic Death Metal band.
The first Amon Amarth album with guitarist Johan Söderberg and drummer Fredrik Andersson, Thus completing the line-up that remained up until 2015, following Andersson's departure from the band.
Amon Amarth does one thing: Melodic yet Brutal Viking Death Metal. And they do it better than anyone else. "The Avenger" is an album that inspires one to grow a beard and take up arms against the Christian oppressors like no other. The twin guitar assault is the spear of Odin thrust into your heart, Johan Hegg's growling vocals are the battle cry of a thousand frenzied berserkers, the relentless double kick echoes with the thunderclap of Mjolnir.
There is not a single weak point over the course of the album's duration. It's looks like "The Avenger" is the best Viking Metal album ever put out. Each song is a well-constructed epic tale of Nordic folklore, accompanied most appropriately by the all best elements of the Melodic Death Metal genre. This is the album that should inspire artists to paint vast murals depicting proud Viking warriors dying gloriously on the field of battle, slaughtering the Christian dogs till their swords fall from their grasp, cursing their enemies with their last gasping breath. There is no other band that sounds like Amon Amarth, no other band that so clearly brings to mind such striking imagery.
The album’s only one fault would be it's too short. "The Avenger" clocks in at just over 36 minutes with only seven songs. It's a brief listen, though an intense one from start to finish. But considering how often these masterful architects pump out consistently great material, it’s an easily forgivable fault.
Remastered re-release contains a bonus track, "Thor Arise", a re-recording of the title track from their first demo, "Thor Arise".

The second re-release of the third full-length studio album by legendary Swedish Melodic Death Metal band.
After nearly a decade of recording and a few line-up overhauls, each contributor to Amon Amarth's previous effort, "The Avenger", stuck around for "The Crusher". Original members Johan Hegg (vocals) and Olavi Mikkonen (guitars) again joined by Fredrik Andersson on drums, Johan Söderberg on guitar, and bassist Ted Lundström.
There is nothing new on this outing to surprise fans of this band's familiar Scandinavian Death Metal. The riffing from guitar and drums is workmanlike, and Hegg's vocal rants carry all the requisite ferocity. During slower, more musically focused numbers like "As Long as the Raven Flies" and the opener, "Bastards of a Lying Breed", certain attributes of '80s Thrash and song-driven Metal create spaces that enhance the rest of this album's dense material.
"The Crusher" blends seamlessly with the rest of Amon Amarth's Metal Blade catalogue. There isn't a standout among these recordings, as their textural differences are negligible. Listeners who enjoy this kind of Metal should certainly check out Amon Amarth, and "The Crusher" would be a good place to start!

The third re-release of the fourth full-length studio album by legendary Swedish Melodic Death Metal band.
First Amon Amarth album to showcase a more mid-paced and heavy sound, unlike their earlier faster works. Band return with another terrain flattening, Viking-obsessed Death Metal platter.
Vocalist Johan Hegg alternates between a whispery low rumble and an upper-register shriek, both of which are surprisingly able to render the lyrics quite intelligible at times. What's possibly most impressive about "Versus The World" is the ebb and flow of the record; there is an engaging variety of moods, tempos and textures that is lacking from the work of many similar bands. The songs are truly songs, which are thoughtfully arranged and manage to deliver melody and even beauty, along with moments of extreme brutality.
The name of Amon Amarth ever since their beginnings stands for heaviness, mighty, pounding compositions that make you imagine the Viking warriors on their dragon ships, fighting against intruders or being out on a pillage tour; stands for grand melodies, lines, no, arches of great melodies that intertwine with the powerful and crushing rhythm-guitars, forming an all-encompassing machine, towering over you, shadowing everything in its monumental size; stands for a forceful sound that definitely can blow you against the wall and hold you there with ease.
Amon Amarth seem to be incapable of doing a weak album and with their trademarks they not only managed to create another high quality masterpiece, but they definitely also have their own sound within the much crowded Death Metal scene, as the title implies, these five Swedes take on the world, with an album like "Versus The World", the odds are damn good that they will conquer it!!
In 2005, "Versus The World" was ranked number 413 in Rock Hard magazine's book of The 500 Greatest Rock & Metal Albums of All Time.

Amon Amarth seem to be incapable of doing a weak album and with their trademarks they not only managed to create another high quality masterpiece, but they definitely also have their own sound within the much crowded Death Metal scene, as the title implies, these five Swedes take on the world, with an album like "Versus The World", the odds are damn good that they will conquer it!!
In 2005, "Versus The World" was ranked number 413 in Rock Hard magazine's book of The 500 Greatest Rock & Metal Albums of All Time.

The fourteenth full-length studio album by legendary Finnish Melodic Folk/Gothic Metal band.
The longer a band’s career is, the higher is the probability of something fails in music. There are infinite examples that can be a proof of such words in music’s history. But, there are bands that refuse to work in a way that their best can’t be presented in their works, as they want to create a line of continuous classic albums. And one of these bands is the Finnish sextet AMORPHIS, because since their debut they’re delivering excellent albums, and their latest album, “Halo”, is another masterpiece.
Their musical formula isn’t easy to explain in few words: it’s a fusion between aggressiveness and melancholy (the vocals contrasts between clean and growl can depict such thing clearly), Metal elements with lysergic/Psychedelic influences of Hard Rock and Progressive Rock from the late 60s/early 70s (elements that can be clearly heard on “Northwards” due the keyboards and solos), good technical level with good taste and catchy moments (pay attention on the rich arrangements of “The Moon” to check such aspect), always with a deeper and excellent set of landscaping musical ambience.
The set of 11 songs that are presented on “Halo” was chosen between 30 songs, and it’s the kind of album that you can put on repeat for hours, days, months, centuries, eons… you’ll never get sick of it! There is something new to discover in this record every spin because across these songs, there are so many extraordinary details that spice things up a bit, but essentially really make a difference. Whether it’s extra spicy guitar licks, subtle keyboard melodies, or the often groovy bass lines and polyrhythmic drums, this album is truly dynamic and altogether an interesting rollercoaster to the attentive listener.

First re-release of the eighth full-length studio album by legendary Finnish Melodic Folk/Gothic Metal band.
After the release of the very good "Far From The Sun" in 2003, AMORPHIS faced the very difficult task of finding the proper replacement for Pasi Koskinen behind the microphone. Koskinen had already linked his voice with the band's second era after the prime Doom/Death Metal releases through the early 90s. This era was quite successful for the Finnish sextet and was characterized by albums like "Elegy", "Tuonela" and "Far From The Sun" that had distinct Gothic Metal additions. After many auditions, the band chose Tomi Joutsen as the new singer, who made his debut album appearance two years before, in "Eclipse". Although the album was pretty good, it raised some complaints, saying that Amorphis have chosen a more commercial sound and drifted further from their past works. "Silent Waters" clear away all the clouds of doubt that were gathered around Tomi Joutsen voice and performance in "Eclipse". The band had to search inside and bring some sounds from the old days for the new album.
The lyrics are English translations of Finnish poems written by poet Pekka Kainulainen, who wrote them based on the character of Lemminkäinen in the Kalevala.
Amorphis has gone through many changes and have progressed into a friendly territory on "Silent Waters". The songs here are accessible and very melodic, even when compared to albums like "Elegy" and "Tales From The Thousand Lakes". The band still has a distinctly Folk flavour, but doesn't have nearly as many Death Metal-influenced passages as they had in the past. The result is an album that is crystal clear, addictive and heart-warming.
Once again, Amorphis are over the top creative. The two sides of the band, light and dark, fusion perfectly on this melancholic and intense output! "Silent Waters" is one of Amorphis' stronger efforts, and it's recommended to any and all Metal fans!!
In February 2008, the record was certified gold in Finland, having sold over 15,000 units.

The fourth re-release of the second full-length studio album by legendary Finnish Progressive/Folk/Gothic Melodic Death/Doom Metal band.
"Tales From The Thousand Lakes" is a concept album based on the Finnish national epic, Kalevala. The album was an influential release in the development of the Melodic Death Metal genre, predominantly mixing the genre with Death/Doom and Gothic Metal, compared to the band's Death Metal debut. The album's song structures are considered to be progressive. The album also has elements of Psychedelic music and Folk music. The music is considered to be less extreme than other Melodic Death Metal releases, incorporating Heavy Metal singing in addition to Death Metal growls on some tracks. The instrumentation draws from Neo-Prog. This showcases a more melodic sound for the band, with hints at their later, more Progressive direction. The album also introduced synthesizers and clean vocals to the band's sound, though the latter was used sparingly.
"Tales From The Thousand Lakes" is the first Amorphis release to have an official keyboardist, Kasper Mårtenson, as any previous of the band's releases had the band's own drummer, Jan Rechberger, provide the empty keyboardist role until the band decided to have a keyboardist and also to find one being Mårtenson. With Mårtenson in the band, it is the first time the band's original lineup changed by having an additional member. Jan Rechberger would leave the band after this album but rejoin the band for 2003's "Far From The Sun".
The influence of Amorphis’ second album can be heard in countless branches of the history of Metal. The Finnish band’s incorporation of their homeland’s native melodies and lyrics based on epic poetry had a clear impact on the development of Folk Metal, while the kinetic riffs of “Drowning Maid” and melodies of “Black Winter Day” laid down foundations for the then-burgeoning Melodic Death Metal genre.
"Tales From The Thousand Lakes" is the most commercially successful Relapse release, selling over 100 000 copies to date.
Limited Edition to 2133 copies, Custom Galaxy Merge Vinyl.

Third re-release of the debut full-length studio album by legendary Canadian Technical Thrash Metal band.
Annihilator's brand of technical, thinking man's Thrash Metal garnered many fans with this fine debut, arguably the best release of the band's career. A brief acoustic guitar piece called "Crystal Ann" introduces the excellent title track: a psychological murder thriller supposedly based on a disturbed young girl's true story.
Leader Jeff Waters takes himself a little too seriously at times (see the Edgar Allan Poe-influenced "Ligeia" and his ridiculously erudite commentary on each song's lyrics), but he is equally prone to refreshing flashes of humor on "Word Salad" and "Schizos Are Never Alone". The spectacularly named Randy Rampage proves himself to be a versatile vocalist on "Wicked Mystic" and "Burns Like a Buzzsaw Blade". The careening closer "Human Insecticide" is magnificent for its sheer speed.
The album is full of technical riffs and solos from guitarist and songwriter Jeff Waters that are sure to please any fan of Thrash Metal. "Alice In Hell" features very few dull moments, as each of the songs are very powerful in their own way, and would not look out of place on a record from any of the big four of Thrash. Somehow the band did not gain the same popularity as some of the other Thrash acts, especially in North America, which is unfortunate, as the band put out some very quality material. "Alice In Hell" ranks near the top of the band's discography, and is definitely an essential Thrash album!!

Second re-release of the second full-length studio album by legendary Canadian Technical Thrash/Speed Metal band.
As the highest selling Canadian Metal band, it would be fair to say that they have achieved a large amount across their long and fruitful career, having put out two absolute pillars within Thrash Metal in their first two albums. The band is renowned for the high level of technical proficiency across each instrument as well as their complex and catchy riffs and jumps between fast and slower sections in the blink of an eye. It was this formula that made such songs as "Alison Hell" from their debut album "Alice In Hell" so good, which would continue onto the follow-up.
"Never, Neverland" being a step up from their fantastic debut. The title track, "Road To Ruin", and "'The Fun Palace" are regarded by many as being some of the best tracks the band has ever put out, featuring some memorable vocal lines and spectacular riffing. The bass playing on these tracks is flawless, whilst the drumming is the stuff of legend, with some really Groovy lines. The sheer cohesiveness of this entire release is almost untouchable, and what is even more amazing is that the band's vocal work not only fits in with the other instruments, but actually adds to it. Coburn Pharr has a rather awesome slightly high-pitched shout and sneer that he uses for many songs, occasionally leaping between even higher shrieks and some lower notes to make for the complete vocal performance. "The Fun Palace" kicks this album off in spectacular fashion with some of the best flowing guitar work in Thrash Metal history. Whilst people such as Kirk Hammett just shred as fast as they can and abuse the wah pedal, Jeff Waters scatters various techniques throughout and lays down some beautiful melodies in his solos. This can be found on various songs. "Sixes And Sevens" shows great effect with a chorus that you will roar along to and stamp your feet in the most defiant way possible upon hearing a few times...
Comparable to Metallica and Judas Priest at their heaviest, "Never, Neverland" is a blistering gem that takes no prisoners. Much heavier than the many Pop-Metal units flooding the market in the late '80s and early '90s, it was one of 1990s strongest Metal releases. The true icing on the cake for "Never, Neverland" is its crystal clean but aggressive production job. The guitars have more bite than a pissed off Rottweiler, whilst the drums pound away incessantly without ever completely overbearing the mix. The bass is consistently audible, and the vocals are well-placed right at the centre of the production. This is one of the best jobs in Thrash Metal and really is the last nail in the coffin for almost every other Thrash album attempting to compete with this. If you are a Metal fan, and you have not heard "Never, Neverland", kindly do yourself a favour and listen to this, as it is a masterpiece of Thrash Metal!

As the highest selling Canadian Metal band, it would be fair to say that they have achieved a large amount across their long and fruitful career, having put out two absolute pillars within Thrash Metal in their first two albums. The band is renowned for the high level of technical proficiency across each instrument as well as their complex and catchy riffs and jumps between fast and slower sections in the blink of an eye. It was this formula that made such songs as "Alison Hell" from their debut album "Alice In Hell" so good, which would continue onto the follow-up.
"Never, Neverland" being a step up from their fantastic debut. The title track, "Road To Ruin", and "'The Fun Palace" are regarded by many as being some of the best tracks the band has ever put out, featuring some memorable vocal lines and spectacular riffing. The bass playing on these tracks is flawless, whilst the drumming is the stuff of legend, with some really Groovy lines. The sheer cohesiveness of this entire release is almost untouchable, and what is even more amazing is that the band's vocal work not only fits in with the other instruments, but actually adds to it. Coburn Pharr has a rather awesome slightly high-pitched shout and sneer that he uses for many songs, occasionally leaping between even higher shrieks and some lower notes to make for the complete vocal performance.
