For the first time on vinyl, the only full-length studio album by German Heavy/Power Metal project.
C.O.E. was the last solo project band of the legendary Croatian-born frontman S. L. Coe, most known as the voice of classic albums like Angel Dust "To Dust You Will Decay" or Scanner  "Terminal Earth". With these two recordings, the voice of  S. L. Coe entered into the hearts of many Metal-fans worldwide. After his last release with German Reactor on their "Farewell To Reality" in 1995, the singer retired dedicating his career as sound engineer (Dust Music studio owner) and producer (1MF label owner) but found time to run this project with good friends from 2000 to 2002. The album was released on CD by Shark Records in 2000 and dedicated to the music that Coe most loves: Metal!
In Germany, S. L. Coe was entitled as "enfant terrible" and not beloved in the "scene" for his true and "straight in your face" talk. The track "Have a Drink on Me" shows clearly what Coe waited to say for long time to some guys! A biker, a Metalhead and a Jack Daniels fan, S. L. Coe sings his truth on his songs, he practised what he preaches. Here are some words on his YouTube page: "Album "Metal" failed to reach a broader audience because of the corrupt and dishonest Metal press of Rock Hard and Metal Hammer, who feature bands especially when the record companies pay accordingly for advertises and pimpled teen "journalists" who think they can judge music of veterans who are more than 20 years on the road. After a hearing damage and not willing to deal with corruption and mendacity any more, S. L. Coe in 2002 decided to ultimately leave the music business".
Out first time on vinyl, and with a new artwork, this is a true and heartfelt tribute and homage to a great singer who recorded Heavy Metal classics, dedicated his life to Heavy Metal music, and took less than he deserved.

The second re-release of the debut full-length studio album by legendary American Brutal Death Metal band.
Cannibal Corpse emerged fully formed out of Florida's famous Death Metal swamp with their debut. The first Cannibal Corpse album is a landmark album in the history of Heavy Metal and even Rock 'n' Roll. All the trademarks are in place, from the B-horror movie album cover art to the ludicrously over the top lyrics.
Metal Blade definitely signed this Buffalo, NY band, and they signed the best band of all-time! Cannibal Corpse's single-minded devotion to their cause is admirable. Incredible riffs and outstanding vocals on all the songs. The bass is impressive and outstanding as well. The drumming is nice, fast, furious, and superb. Chris Barnes growls his vocals like Satan on a diet of razor blades and paint thinner. This album was something more than average Death Metal fit. More fast, brutal, powerful and full of force than other acts such as Death and Obituary. Filled with speed and anger, Cannibal Corpse took Death Metal to another level, with the fast drumming for the likes of Death, Autopsy and Sadus, the guttural riffage and brutal vocals. 
This album really rules! It's the best debut album ever and the best album released in 1990!!

First re-release of the second full-length studio album by cult American Heavy Metal band.
The first Chastain album to feature Fifth Angel drummer Ken Mary, who replaced Fred Coury, after a suggestion by Shrapnel Records president and talent scout Mike Varney.
On "Ruler Of The Wasteland", Chastain leads his band through a set of well-penned and fairly accessible Heavy Metal tunes with such dramatic titles as "The Battle of Nevermore" and "Angel of Mercy". Lead singer Leather sounds like a female Dio - in a good way. Guitar geeks should stick with Malmsteen, but more mainstream Metal audiences will enjoy Chastain's tough, song-oriented approach.
During the same year, David T. Chastain also released two other studio albums with his second band, CJSS.
For fans of Dio, Warlock, Yngwie Malmsteen, CJSS and Leather!

The second full-length studio album by legendary American Glam/Blues Metal band.
Probably the best Cinderella’s album. With "Long Cold Winter", Cinderella started to move away from the Glam Metal music of their previous album and into a more Blues Rock-oriented direction, akin to early 1970s Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, Humble Pie, Bad Company and Deep Purple.
The album is simply excellent to listen to from beginning to end, and even the track listings for this album are flawless. Tom Keifer's vocal performance cannot be rivaled by any other singer, and his talent is shown on every song of the album. Each and every song on this album is great!
The album features four singles, which all charted in the US. "Don't Know What You Got (Till It's Gone)", which was to be Cinderella's highest-charting single, reached No. 12, "The Last Mile" reached No. 36, "Coming Home" reached No. 20 and "Gypsy Road" hit No. 51, a year after the release of the album.
Album reached No. 10 in the US and became double Platinum for selling 2 million copies in the US by the end of the year, just as their debut album "Night Songs" had done earlier. It was later certified triple Platinum.

The second re-release of the debut full-length studio album by legendary American Glam Metal band.
Cinderella makes its debut in a flash of lightning and a puff of smoke with "Night Songs". The first album by the band is easily one of best albums of all time. Why? Because Cinderella breaks new ground in many areas, and does it flawlessly. Most notably for this success is Tom Keifer, the lead singer and guitarist for Cinderella. Not only does Tom write most of the songs for Cinderella, but he also gave Hard Rock and Glam Metal a completely new meaning with his amazing falsetto! His voice has a bit of a growl to it, which at times can send chills down your spine, and also is a voice that nobody has matched.
Featuring a minor guest appearance by Jon Bon Jovi positions the band as a Pop-Metal outfit, but with Cinderella's own personality shows through at this point. 
"Night Songs" sold several million copies due to a combination of Cinderella's breakthrough single "Nobody's Fool", MTV airplay, and an opening slot on label mates Bon Jovi's tour, in support of their album "Slippery When Wet". Leadoff single "Shake Me" failed to chart, but "Nobody's Fool" cracked the Top 20, reaching #13. Third single "Somebody Save Me" went to #66. The album peaked at #3 on the US charts on February 7, 1987, and was certified double Platinum for selling 2 million copies there twelve days later. In May 1991, it was certified triple Platinum, having 3 million copies sold.
Cinderella takes Hard Rock and Glam Metal to a whole new level with their brand new, amazing sound. The sound of the album is great! Cinderella shows their talent in this album with each and every song. We love everything about this album, from the mind blowing guitar work, to the terrific drums, and maybe most of all, Tom Keifer's stunning vocals!

For the first time on vinyl, the debut full-length studio album by American Progressive Power Metal band.
Circle II Circle marks the recording return of former Savatage lead vocalist, Zachary Stevens, after a few years of silence. Circle II Circle was formed by Zak Stevens after his departure from Savatage, after recording four albums. But though this band is very much Stevens' personal vehicle, the bulk of 2003's debut was written with the help of his old Savatage cronies, and it is therefore no surprise that both groups tread quite similar paths. "Watching In Silence" featured guest appearances from Zachary's former bandmates of Savatage, Jon Oliva and Chris Caffery.
The writing for debut began in mid-2001, when Zak and Jon Oliva entered D.O.W. studios in Tampa to start some rough demos of their early ideas. Most songs included on the album were co-written with either Jon Oliva and Chris Caffery. It should be no surprise this sounds a lot like Savatage, considering who’s in the line-up, with the epic arrangements, moody passages, and Zak’s soaring vocals, it could have had ideas for a new Savatage album, being very much in the vein of "Dead Winter Dead" or "Wake of Magellan". The same kinds of vocal melodies, the same kinds of arrangements, the same type of lyrical themes. If anything, Circle II Circle comes across a tad less 'Metallic' and closer to the Melodic Hard Rock (think AOR) that was so popular in the early '80s.
After this record release, the entire band other than Stevens quit and eventually went on to join Oliva in Jon Oliva's Pain.
If you really dig the mellower bits on the last Savatage albums, you need to get this!

Limited Edition release of the first live album by cult American Heavy/Doom Metal band.
Cirith Ungol was formed in 1971, just one year after Black Sabbath released their self-titled debut kickstarting the genre. Taking influence from Progressive and the Hard Rock, as well as the burgeoning Metal scene along the way, the band formed a powerful sound, one that inspired myriad musicians. Cirith Ungol have always been their own animal with a heady brew of Fantasy-inspired lyrics and gripping Metal. They have a certain niche carved alongside acts like Pagan Altar and Manilla Road - true pioneers of pure and true Heavy Metal.
When the band released their first album, “Frost And Fire”, in 1981, they benefitted from the nascent NWOBHM movement.  As the decade progressed, though, it was as if Metal split into two distinct and opposite directions with the MTV crowd at one end and the other occupied by heavier bands.  After having a difficult relationship with their label, Restless Records, the band split up in 1992. Thankfully, though, they reunited in 2016 and have been hard at work since playing festivals across North America and Europe.
“I’m Alive” was recorded live 27.05.2017 at Up The Hammers Festival, Athens, Greece. At twenty-two tracks, this is an album well worth its price tag. The production is thoroughly live with little to no evidence of any major studio fixes or tricks. Tonally, the guitar is pure, undiluted overdriven Marshall JCM800, the staple of the ‘80s. It is a thick sound with plenty of girth and Metallic rage. The drums are captured with a very lively sound, solid and organic. Tim Baker’s vocals are as lethal as ever as he still rules over the microphone like a despotic ancient warlord from a Robert E. Howard or Michael Moorcock story.  Weatherby’s bass sounds huge. Though not particularly overindulgent, it is an articulate sound with plenty of presence that never gets buried in the mix. Few bands can really pull something like that off without sounding over-busy but Cirith Ungol are veterans, certainly members of the Heavy Metal elite! Cirith Ungol were essentially paving the way for bands like Iced Earth and their collaboration with Todd McFarland on “The Dark Saga”.  Everything about this album speaks to the professional aspect of the band. Because of that vital experience in the business, the band understands well what the fans want and caters to them particularly the die-hards. If you can find this for a decent price on vinyl - buy it!  It is not only a solid investment, but genuine Heavy Metal magic!!

Tenth full-length album by legendary British Symphonic Black/Extreme Gothic Metal band.
A more reviled, deified, and overtly controversial group has yet to come from the primordial ooze of Metallic devolution. Cradle of Filth return with a new foray into a female based concept album and the formula - akin to “Cruelty And The Beast”- appears to be a winner. From 1994 till 2008 Cradle of Filth changed their style with every album they released. You cannot state that their first album resemblances “Dusk And Her embrace” or even “Cruelty And The Beast”. There is no band’s album in this time span that should be labeled as a copy cat of another, as their music progressed in such a manner that the term “Black Metal” doesn’t suit them by far. This album is yet another concept album and like their previous album, “Godspeed On The Devil's Thunder”, it is another step toward the mainstream. This album uses more tremolo picking, rather than power choral structure, however, so it is a step back toward the early days of Cradle of Filth.

The seventh full-length studio album by Irish Celtic Folk/Black Metal band.
Band’s most powerful offering to date, and quite possible Cruachan’s strongest album in their already quite lengthy career!
Cruachan has created a record that fits in perfectly with what you would expect from such a release: it has an epic build-up of lyrics and guitar solos, yet created around a very easy-listenable and catchy frame, which goes for all of the many impressively played instruments. It is this organic feel and authentic package with the lyrics going hand in hand with the music, which sets the band apart from most of their peers and the conviction is palpable.
"Blood For The Blood God" is the second part of the ‘blood’ trilogy begun with 2011’s "Blood On The Black Robe" (a record, which saw the band return to their Black Metal roots), that contains several stories and myths pertaining to Celtic history, delivered in a classical Folk Metal fashion (which includes several Folk instruments; in this case an Irish bagpipe, flutes, whistles and violins).
Without a doubt one of the best Folk Metal albums of 2014, and it is good to see the band still going strong and pushing their envelope after all these years!
Gatefold double vinyl release includes bonus disc, which features:
- re-recording of a song with the same title from the “Pagan” album 2004 (Track 1);
- demo versions of songs from the “Blood For The Blood God” album (Tracks 2, 3, 4, with track 3 and 4 presented here under their working title);
- songs from the “I Am Warrior” demo (Tracks 5, 6, 7 - all three were re-recorded and used on the 2011 “Blood On The Black Robe” album).

The third full-length studio album by legendary American Pop singer.
The album was originally set to be released in 1988, under the name "Kindred Spirit", but was delayed until 1989 and the songs from the initial project were reworked.
On "True Colors", Cyndi Lauper began to edge her way into adult contemporary territory, but it was on "A Night To Remember" that she concentrated all of her attention on becoming a self-consciously "mature" singer/songwriter. 
Although the album is called "A Night To Remember", Lauper jokingly preferred to call it "A Night To Forget", given its poor reviews and disappointing sales, compounded by the problems she encountered with producer and boyfriend David Wolf⁠f during the production of the album.
The album sold moderately well but did not enjoy the same commercial success of her two previous albums, despite the success of the album's lead Single, "I Drove All Night", which became a Top 10 hit, her last in the U.S.A., earning Lauper a Grammy nomination. In the UK, however, "A Night To Remember" was Lauper's highest-charting album, peaking at No.9. According to the book "St. James Encyclopedia of Popular Culture (Volume 3)", the album sold half a million copies in the United States in 1989.
Although not certified by RIAA, BPI, and others trade associations, the album was certified Platinum in Australia and United Kingdom and Gold in Germany, Italy, and United States. Worldwide, the album has sold more than 1.5 million copies.
