The second compilation album by legendary German Heavy/Speed/Power Metal band.
German Power Metallers celebrate their 30th anniversary with the release of a unique collection of songs from their outstanding back catalogue, including all available rare and unreleased tracks!
What better way to celebrate their anniversary as by diving deep into their own history, spanning three decades of an incomparable and an unbeatable Metal career – from the humble beginnings in the early 1980s, with their debut attempt "Prayers Of Steel", and back then calling themselves Avenger, through the flourishing 90s, that peaked in their 1996 classic approach "Lingua Mortis". All the way to the most recent years, which also featured Rage coming in third at the Bundesvision Songcontest in 2009, carving a quarter of a century in stone even more so!
Garnish all this with 21 albums released to date and add in some line-up changes, and you not only get your average German Metal combo, but a gathering of brilliant musicians that keep reinventing their own sound with every new creative vision to come!!
"The Soundchaser Archives" is an interesting and entertaining collection of tracks covering this iconic band’s journey through 30 years, displaying not only their ideas and influences, but also their work outside of Rage as well. This compilation is a real gem for die-hard Rage fans, and collectors of rare and unreleased works. Your hard-earned money worth to purchase this!!!

The fifth full-length studio album by legendary British Hard Rock band.
The first album to feature Bobby Rondinelli on drums and Joe Lynn Turner on lead vocals (the third and final vocalist), after the departures of Cozy Powell and Graham Bonnetrespectively, following the release of "Down To Earth" album.
The album marked the further commercialization of the band's sound, with Blackmore once describing at the time a liking for the Rock band, Foreigner. It became the band's highest-charting album on the UK Albums Chart, where it peaked at number three. "I Surrender" became the band's highest charting Single in the UK, reaching No. 3.
Allegedly, the album's cover (designed by Hipgnosis) had originally been proposed for use on Black Sabbath's 1978 release "Never Say Die!".

The third full-length studio album by legendary British Hard Rock band.
Released in 1978, it's the last album to feature original lead vocalist Ronnie James Dio, on which he went out on a high note.
While the material is not quite as strong as on the previous studio effort, "Rising", "Long Live Rock 'n' Roll" maintains the momentum the band had built up.
"Kill the King" had been previously heard on the live "On Stage" record, but here it sounds more fully realized. Also, the title track from the album stands as one of the best songs the band did, not to mention a noble sentiment. The chugging "L.A. Connection" is another highlight.
As with all of their first four albums, this one was produced by Martin Birch, and he really knows how to get the best out of the band by this point. The result is that the songs couldn't sound any better, so even if some of the material isn't quite up to their best, the album is still very cohesive, steady, and, ultimately, satisfying. This would turn out to be the last great album Rainbow would ever make, although they did enjoy a great deal of chart success in the post-Dio era.

The first live album by legendary British Hard Rock/Heavy Metal band.
Breaking with '70s Heavy Metal tradition by releasing a live album after only two studio efforts (you're supposed to have three before the live one), Rainbow served up this double platter in 1977. It was recorded live over several German and Japanese dates in late 1976, during the Rising World Tour.
"On Stage" is full of great songs and playing, it's one of the best live albums ever recorded. The production is very good. Produced by Martin Birch, who was responsible for much of Iron Maiden's production.
Going without saying, one should be sure going into this, that there's gonna be a lot of ingenious guitar licks being composed, adding a lot of life to tracks like "Catch the Rainbow" and "Sixteenth Century Greensleeves". Those tracks in particular are both on the slower side in comparison to many on the debut, but have an excellent delivery when performed live. Dio's untouched live vocal performance crossed with the unstoppable Ritchie Blackmore showcase some of the greatest moments in "live record" history. The help of Jimmy Bain on bass and Cozy Powell on drums, although less famous at the time, assist driving home and backing many of Blackmore's tangents. This would set the stage for what we should expect from those musicians on future releases.
The covers performed on here are pretty great; while "Mistreated" may seem redundant due to being taken from Blackmore's previous band, it's a nice touch hearing Dio sing it instead. Toney Carey on the keyboards obviously isn't too different from Jon Lord, but still pretty great. "Still I'm Sad" stands out as a unique one here, as it was originally just an instrumental cover on the studio album. But on this, we are given vocals and more intensity, in turn churning out a track that has more suspense, and you can't really hear it anywhere else...
Great release, with some unique output that you won't hear anywhere else!

The second full-length studio album by legendary British Hard Rock band.
On their second release, also known as “Rainbow Rising”, Rainbow not only avoid the sophomore jinx; they hit a home run. After replacing the entire band (except Ronnie James Dio) immediately following the recording of the first album, Ritchie Blackmore and the "Rising" line-up (Blackmore; Dio; Tony Carey - keys; Jimmy Bain - bass; and the late, great Cozy Powell - drums) had plenty of time on the road touring the first album to get the chops and material together for their second.
In particular, "Stargazer" really came together on the 1975 tour and featured stunning keyboard work from Carey. The material is uniformly strong, with "Starstruck" and "A Light in the Black" standing out in particular. Ronnie Dio turns in a great vocal on the stunningly direct (under three minutes!) "Do You Close Your Eyes". All six songs on the album are up there with anything the band has done, before or since. The playing has a very tight, colourful feel to it, which was lacking a bit on the first record. This album can legitimately be mentioned in the same breath as classic Deep Purple!
The album was an instant critical and commercial success upon release, and even half a decade later was being voted the number one Heavy Metal album of all time by the readers of British Kerrang! Magazine, remaining in the genre's fundamental canon unto the present day. After all, in its grooves, Blackmore and Rainbow managed the seemingly impossible feat of infusing Heavy Metal’s monochromatic shades of black with every colour of the Rainbow!

The sixth full-length studio album by legendary British Hard Rock band.
The record is an unexpected return to form from the journeyman Hard Rockers. Just a record before, Rainbow sounded as if they were verging on Billy Squier territory, but here, they reverse course and deliver a solid, no-frills Hard Rock record. It isn't just that the material is stronger, though it certainly is, it's that Roger Glover abandoned his smoothed-out, radio-ready production that marred "Difficult To Cure". The band line-up was the same as had recorded the previous "Difficult To Cure" album, with the exception of David Rosenthal, who replaced Don Airey on keyboards.
Vocalist Joe Lynn Turner sounds more comfortable with the group, and the entire band just seems to gel, turning even the generic numbers on the album into enjoyable, straight-ahead Hard Rock. There may not be any specific showcases for Ritchie Blackmore, but his playing is better heard in this setting, where he's not only soloing, he's propelling the band with his powerful riffs. As always, he's the driving force behind the band, but this is truly a band effort, which is one of the reasons why "Straight Between The Eyes" is one of the strongest albums the group ever cut!
In 2022, "Straight Between The Eyes" was named #5 of "The 25 greatest Rock guitar albums of 1982" list in Guitar World Magazine.

The eighth full-length studio album by legendary German Alternative/Industrial/Dance-Metal band.
Like many other artists around the world, a postponed tour during the COVID-19 pandemic forced the band back to the studio to funnel their creative juices into a new album, erasing any fears that it'd be another decade before hearing a follow-up to 2019's self-titled album.
Much like that catalogue triumph, "Zeit" is yet another step forward in artistic growth and maturity; it might even be Rammstein's most thoughtful and poignant record to date. 
The cover art for "Zeit" depicts the members of Rammstein walking down a staircase connected to the Trudelturm, a monument dedicated to aerial research, located at Aerodynamic Park in Adlershof, Berlin.

Released in 1983 by Neat Records, it was their last album outside a major label. Produced by Michael Wagener and Udo Dirkschneider, it didn't quite measure up to their classic debut, "All For One", but is a marked improvement over the second album, "Wiped Out". Largely credited with sowing the seeds of Thrash Metal along with fellow New Wave of British Heavy Metal trio Venom.
For those more familiar with the N.W.O.B.H.M., standout cuts such as "Break the Chain", "Take It Away" and "Mind Over Metal" help make this disc quite a treat!

The fourth full-length studio album by cult British Heavy Metal band.
It is the first album recorded in the United States for the major label Atlantic Records, after the British band had passed under American management.
Although considered a very important contributing force to the emergence of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, Raven's grip on musical (and lyrical) credibility was always tenuous. Pure energy and enthusiasm is what saved this band, and they still were an influential, but limited, Metal band.
Even with its highly mainstreamed feel and pop appeal, this album still packs enough killer, and less filler to warrant your praise. These guys had more individuality than countless others, and more talent. Get this if you are a fan of the band or style!
"Hard Ride" is a re-recording of the song from Raven's debut album "Rock Until You Drop".

Re-release of the second full-length studio album by legendary British Heavy Metal band.
“Wiped Out” was released just a few months after Raven’s acclaimed debut “Rock Until You Drop” in order to ride the wave of success for this power trio of NWOBHM.
A blasting collection of 12 new songs that maintain the freshness of their Judas Priest inspired debut. If you're a Metalhead who has never experienced the bombastic, Judas Priest-influenced pleasures of Raven, it's best to cut to the chase and go directly to the British headbangers' most essential and enduring output. That means skipping Raven's inferior Atlantic work and starting out with its early recordings. 1981's "Rock Til You Drop" is Raven's best album, but 1982's "Wiped Out" runs a close second. When guitarist Mark Gallagher, drummer Rob Hunter, and the Rob Halford-influenced lead singer John Gallagher rip into such blistering, ferocious classics as "Star War", "Fire Power", "Battle Zone", and "Live at the Inferno", you're hearing a band that was very much in its prime and had yet to lose any of its freshness, imagination, or vitality.
"Rock Til You Drop" and "Wiped Out" are definitely the gems to start out with!
In 2005, “Wiped Out” was ranked number 495 in Rock Hard Magazine's book of “The 500 Greatest Rock & Metal Albums of All Time”.
