Queen - The Show Must Go On. This is in the top 5 best songs ever.

Carcass - Heartwork

Vacant Grave - Life Or Death

Eis - Wetterkreuz

Is there anywhere I can listen to or acquire (or even "acquire") that album? I keep reminding myself to go back to it and it keeps slipping my mind.

Currently listening to Solstice and Pray by Solstice. Specifically, the Pray for the Sentencing reissue from earlier this year. It's a sweet relief to finally have these albums in a physical format, and better sounding than ever to boot. I know the opinion on remix/remasters is typically negative and rightfully so, but Jamie King and Divebomb Records got this one right. Louder and clearer, of course, but still with their natural rough edges. Not an artificially sterile job, just a once-over to get the dust off and the full-on remix for Pray brings out the riffs without sacrificing too much of the original mix's bassy oomph. Apparently King's done work a number of other reissues for the label as well so some digging is likely in order. You all likely know what this is but for those somehow unfamiliar, this is Rob Barrett's old band just prior to him joining Malevolent Creation in the early '90s. Ripping Floridian death/thrash that's usually mentioned in the same breath as Demolition Hammer with an ever so slight tinge of hardcore. Relatively short in the 32-35 minute range but not a second is wasted on either album.

Chastain-Fear No Evil

I should really get Pray and should probably find their newest one too, I've only been living of the S/T for ages. If you can call that living...

Grave - Endless Procession of Souls
Well, it's Grave. It's gonna be good isn't it? Certainly their best for many years.

Sacred Reich - One Nation

Incubus - Beyond The Unknown

Incubus - Beyond The Unknown

Dolorian - With scorn / perish

Mate, I think you can find it on Youtube, if you want, i can send you some tracks of it to your email.

Yeah but it's not funny AT ALL! LOL!

Why from (1992) Joe Satriani - The Extremist.
Nice old stuff.

Mordicus - Dances From Left

And that is fucking indisputable.

Crimson Glory - Lost Reflection, off Crimson Glory

This is one of the best portraits of insanity ever made using a musical format.

Strid - Nattevandring

I've always held Strid's "End of Life" in highest regards, it's a solitary gem in Scandinavian black metal with an ambiance of awe-inspiring, aloof sublimeness that was never reached again by Strid nor any other band since its original release; but I have, likewise, always neglected the eponymous EP - it seemed, in all respects, too severe a departure from "End of Life". Slowly, I am beginning to retract from this notion and to appreciate the record for its own unique style and atmosphere.

I still undeniably favour "End of Life" over the EP, though, but now I hope even more that the rumours about the release of the tentatively-titled "Endetid" album on Kyrck Productions next year will come true.

Baroness - Psalms Alive

...Still not too impressed by Yellow and Green. By no means bad, but rather unexciting.

Pestilence - Spheres

Maveth - Gateway to an eternity of death

Enochian Crescent - Abaiuonin

Megadeth - My Last Words

Peace Sells does not sound like any other thrash album to exist before or since... It's so different. I get the impression that even at the time, none of the band were really listening to any of their peers, or to thrash in general at all.

Asphyx - Asphyx

Common - Like Water For Chocolate

Spawn Of Possession - Incurso - Bodiless Sleeper

Julee Cruise - I Float Alone, from Floating Into The Night

Too much more of this and I will be in line for a nap.

Aborted - Global Flatline - Endstille

It's a shame that compilation reissue doesn't bring each album as a separate CD. That much along with the sound being tweaked (good or bad) kills the thought of buying it for me. I'll decide on it later on if their albums don't drop to decent prices.

As for their latest album it didn't impress me at all, a bit like Pray but even more meh. I don't think you're missing much on that one.

Hate - Erebos

I've known Hate for a long time and I had Anaclasis and Morphosis as decent Behemoth-like albums but this one is totally worshipping at the altar of Nergal. It is however much more dynamic in terms of drumming and has a sense of mid-paced groove that has eluded Behemoth's writing for the past ten years. Pretty good stuff, and dare I say better than the last two Behemoth albums.

Crawlspace - Enter The Realm Of Chaos

Misfits - Die, die my darling

Anthrax - Deathrider

Svartrit - Ondskans Redskap

No problem, I found the band's official site but the offer's appreciated! Their MA page says active but I wasn't sure to what capacity. Apparently they still do live shows but had some more lineup changes as these things go, and are now down to a trio.

Listening to the Collision Course album by Paradox now. After all that back and forth on the thread about the "Teutonic 4," it's clear to me that these guys should have more of a dog in that fight. One of the more quiet comebacks at the turn of the century, their brand of power/thrash sounds like it would come across great in a live setting and... oh, look! It's Christian Münzner!

Blasting the hell out of the new Worship album, Terranean Wake.

So far it is fucking amazing. Just as fucking amazing as Last (physical release) Before Doomsday and Dooom. It was worth the wait. Those guys are still the best Funeral Doom band out there!

Christ Agony - Darkside

Bevar Sea - Universal Sleeper
Iommi worship all the way through!

Desecresy - Arches Of Entropy

"The Crystal World-
Locrian

Those chanting sounds in the background. Wow.

Unleashed
Baphomet

Lago - Arbitrary Conflict

My Dying Bride - The Dreadful Hours
