Also Paradise Jade is just typical Japanese Heavy Metal, no sucker!

Wenfflam isn't AOR, but simple Hard Rock. The ballad sounds cool, flipside typical Status Quo Boogie number on Hard Rock.

Thanks for the info Prowler, sounds like it may be far better than i'd feared.

It would be interesting to hear Pentagon. Seems to be one of those cases of ”so obscure it’s not even on YouTube”.

KIT 2025 haul. No super-rarities (except maybe one...?) this year, but mostly catching up with re-issues/later releases I've missed out on in the last decade.

Bought the B.O.2 LP too. I hoped that there would be more stuff like from their "Descarga Norte" session on the album. But seems those 2 classix are exclusive recordings.
Wonder if these demos are remastered, coz they don't sound so at all.

Some purchases from the past few months. That Infection LP is highly recommended for any Crossover fan! Outstanding HC/Thrash!!! Their previously released 7" is of the same caliber!

The one without sleeve is the Hobbit 12"

As for that Holland LP with the manhole cover, I've seen this a hundred times before and since it's was released on a major label I never gave it any attention. To my own surprise it features Michael Angelo Batio of Nitro, but Holland had a much better singer.
It features seriously quite cool US Hard Rock and mainly Heavy Metal. Any other guy who ignored the album, should give it a try...

It's quite a nice album, not spectacular but resolutely solid from start to finish. Bad Reputation Records released a digitally remastered version on CD recently. There was a demo compilation CD by Holland too called 'Wake Up The Neighbourhood' , but i've yet to hear that one.

Just some recent flea market and thrift store finds + a few from a recent hunting trip in Stockholm.

You got Majestic Ryte at Stockholm serie- & skivhandel? Might be my old copy Never really got into it, traded it in like a month ago for Devastation's Idolatry, happy with that.

I did indeed.

Some fresh items from this and last month. Still can't believe I finally scored those 3 Mexican amigos.
And I've been after that Stormbringer LP since 15 or 20 years I guess. Look at the goddamn price sticker! #dieinpain

That's a really cool haul! Very surprised the 1st Attack wasn't in your collection already??

Used to have that pressing of the Farnux LP but lost (traded) it ages ago. Should revisit and see if it's worth re-hunting..
Kicking myself for also loosing Impeccable
The Masada/Arcangel split is one of the better ones in that pic - or at least most underrated. Cool find!
Super Planet + Styl were new to me. Good stüffs?
...and Morcegos made me of corpse. What type of sleeve is that?

[Prowler]

Meh, that Attack LP is a sucker, typical German crap, so I've been waiting for a cheap copy.
Masada was actually the best Spanish band I heard for ages. Really cool Metal! It's a shame that Split LP is so damn expensive.
Same for "Super Planet", which is actually Missle from Japan. One of the best Japanese Power/Speed albums of the 80's with for Japanese conditions good, bearable vokillz.
If there's a Japanese Helloween pendant, then it must be Missle:

Morcegos sleeve is just print outs of the few handmade covers that they made back in the day.
