+1

Yeah! Very good band indeed. The Unisound CD maybe it is n't too classy and "luxurious" but at least it is easy to find and legit.

Excellent stuff!! Unfortunately much better than anything they released in the future.
Yep! This one was another surprise released in a year when classic Metal was practically dead! But wasn't it released before 1995?
It was in 1995. As far as Drizzit concerns I wasn't so thrilled. I think i gave it away almost immediately.The Metal Inquisitor 7" is a different story, though. One of the highlights of the 90s. I still regret i didn't get it back then. :(
I didn't like the Metal Inquisitor 7", nor their demo so much, Drizzit was better. I wanted to get rid of the MI 7" once but then I saw what people are paying for it so I thought I'll better keep it :wink: ... though the EP was better than the demo for sure!
But Puls, yezz ... that 7" was a total smoker! One of the best czech Metal bands ever!

Yeah, a great album for sure! I also like Panic a lot, sometimes I think it's even better than DWTW. Anyway, really underrated albums both. Death SS lost their spirit with Humanomalies album really, I think. 7th Seal was a bit better but still I never listen to it..

But if I am not mistaken all Lordian Gurad songs were written in the 80s...

I am sure that they match what msp was looking for ("Metal on vinyl 1995 to early 2000's").

yes, that Lordian Guard is indeed great! This is one of the few releases on which I like that there are no rhythm guitars during the solo parts....gives it a special feeling.....
I must admit that I also liked some songs on the Sinergy album, and the first Primal Fear releases are good as well....

yep, hardly anybody took notice of the Hellen reunion....I think half of the copies were distributed in Czech Republic....indeed a nice release....
I was also quite surprised with the first Metalucifer album, it has indeed some very fine songs. About Gorgon, I never got into the vocals, sounds too much amateurish for my taste....
Anybody listened to Metal King? Is it good? I have slow connection at the moment, so I cannot check them out myself.....

Power/Speed Metal with retro edge naturally and blackish vox. But this 7" sounds a hell better than the advance rehearsals I've here for this under their former name (which I cannot remember right now).

Found some more:

The Midnight 12" was extremely limited, less than 100 copies. Also Arson, Elegy and The Heritage deserve to be mentioned even though they are all from 1994, but it's Grunge/Groove-free Metal ...

Not mentioned yet:

After All / Double Diamond split 12" from 2002. Steelhunter Records.

Dawn Of Time - A Force Of One 7" from 2000. Underground Loudness.

Falconer / Nocturnal Rites split 7" from 2005. Swedmetal Records. (Do NOT buy this from the label directly, the owner is a fucking rip-off and should not be supported)

I might try to take some photos of them later.
