Re: Sabbat (Japan)

Anybody listen to the new Sabbat album "Sabbaticult" yet? I listened to it and it's pretty damn good. The vocals are a bit interesting compared to what I'd usually expect from Sabbat. Their newest guitarist is definitely a bit of return to form harkening back to the 90s-00s era with Temis ...

Re: SBS ( Lithuania ) - S/T LP 2024

This is definitely the best sounding Lithuanian band I've heard. I've checked out a few Lithuanian bands and unfortunately most of them were a bit disappointing. Now I can understand that you're Lithuanian so you have resentment towards Russia due to Soviet oppression, but I can't really say this ba...

Re: Bands everybody else labels as mediocre but you love anyways

Glory Bells Band is definitely one of those bands where it's somewhat mediocre, so understandable why a lot of people would rate them that way, but their good songs have really catchy hooks and great riffs. Fate isn't exactly top-shelf AOR but I like the atmosphere on their first couple albums, the...

Re: Helms Deep - Treacherous Ways (feat. members of RAVEN)

This seems super cool, going to have to listen to it later. Is this a "side-project" of Raven or is it more like John and Mike lent their playing to help the other guy in the band out?

Was browsing some old Rodney Matthews covers and came across this. Wrong kind of steel in this band.
Steel guitar? Haha

Holy shit, awesome! I love Tegen Hart and have listened to their LP a ton over the last few years, it's one of my absolute favorite Italian releases. Glad to see this exists. Will listen ASAP

Guessing based on the other posts in the thread, I'd say maybe: Crom (Finland) Crowley (Japan) Enforce (Germany; did the demo "In Search of Wisdom") Harfang Orialix Inherent Sin Insane (Swedish Heavy/Speed/Melodic Metal) Saber Tiger Steel Angel (France; probably well known I'd think but I ...

Re: Classic Speed / Power Metal bands from between 77 to 88

Hmm. It might help if you specify which exact regions/scenes you aren't as knowledgeable about so that way people who reply can specifically tell you some more insightful recommendations.

Re: Your favourite 7" sleeves?

Speaking of the Japanese Metal scene, I think "Headlight No. 1" had a really cool style when it comes to black and white 7" sleeves. He's the guy who drew most of the Gorgon sleeves of course, outside of his band Headlight. https://www.discogs.com/label/110636-Metal-Coven-Records He d...

Re: POWER CASTLE

Yeah, Mark Benson is something of an acquired taste. Much like a fine Limburger cheese, stinky but worth getting used to. Thanks for listening! His voice is like a weird combination of Messiah Marcolin and, not necessarily El Duce but what a replacement Mentors singer what sound like. But the music...
