Artist : Northern Insomnia Project
Country : Finland
Release : First Cut Is The Deepest
Year : 2013
Genre : Heavy Metal
File Type : mp3 VBR

Info:

Northern Insomnia Project delivers a completely diverse sounding metal release
with “First Cut is the Deepest.” I personally like consistency when it comes to my Metal
music, but I understand that this project was trying to capture different styles of Metal by
using multiple vocalists. Listeners are given the opportunity to hear five distinctive
sounding metal tracks and take away the elements that they find most enjoyable on this
EP. I recommend this album to those who enjoy uplifting well written Heavy Metal with a
diverse sounding quality that changes from song to song.

Artist : Danny Vaughn
Country : USA
Release : Standing Alone [Reissue]
Year : 2003
Genre : Hard Rock
File Type : mp3 VBR


Info:

From the beginning of his career Vaughn, the Tyketto & former Waysted vocalist, had always been the token acoustic guitar player who added a little extra flavour to the sound of the bands with which he was involved. The idea for Standing Alone came about following a UK tour which saw Vaughn taking to the stage alone every night to play a song acoustically. Such was the reception that these interludes received that soon after he invested in some home recording equipment and Standing Alone began to take shape. As Vaughn states: "The idea was to see how some songs from my near and not-so-near past would sound reinterpreted". And the result is nothing short of spectacular. Emotional and honest Standing Alone is the sound of vocal and guitar working together at their best, the simplicity of the arrangements proving just how good Vaughn's songs truly are.

TRACKLIST:




Artist : 38 Special
Country : USA
Release : Live At Sturgis
Year : 1999
Genre : Hard Rock
File Type : mp3 320

Info:

If you love .38 Special (which I'm sure you probably do if you're reading this), then this CD will not disappoint you at all. Sure, as previously mentioned, not ALL of their great songs are represented here, but the ones that they do are done very well. When I purchased this right here on Amazon.com, I was a little concerned since it had been so many years since I heard these boys play live, but on first listen my worries were totally disspelled. Don Barnes's voice, although it has clearly aged a bit (he doesn't hit most of the higher notes he used to reach, plus he doesn't sing lead as often on here) is still in fine shape, and Donnie Van Zant still has that great bloozy Van Zant voice. (You know what ah'm talkin' 'bout!)



TRACKLIST:




Artist : Amorphis
Country : Finland
Release : Elegy [Reissue]
Year : 1996
Genre : Heavy Metal
File Type : mp3 320


Info:

The songs are metal-driven yet somewhat peaceful and melodic. One thing I think is quite amazing is their use of 2 vocalists, one vocalist uses standard deep death metal growls, while the other one has more a Layne Staley (Alice in Chains) type of voice. The instrumental skill of this band is also quite amazing, from the guitars, drums, and harmonious keyboading this CD will blow your mind, it is a must get.

Fast forward a decade in the colorful Pretty Boy Floyd story and you would find the arrival of glam veteran Lesli Sanders, who became one of the bassists in the band's revolving door line-up. Today Sanders is promoting a new band called The Prophets Of Addiction -- a band that has a hint of his old partner's image, but a much different sound.

TRACKLIST:




Artist : Grendel
Country : Finland
Release : A Change Through Destruction
Year : 2008
Genre : Heavy Metal
File Type : mp3 320

Info:

The Finnish band Grendel has released their latest album A Change Through Destruction. These guys describe themselves as a melodic death metal band, but I absolutely don’t agree with that. Want to know why? Continue reading!
The album starts off with 'One Desire', a speedy melodic death song which immediately catches the attention. Up next is the more down tempo 'A Change Through Destruction' which on its own is a pretty good track, but because of the slower drums, the introduction of the clean vocals, the prominence of the keyboards and a lot of repetition of the chorus, feels like a cold shower after 'One Desire'.
Grendel maintains down tempo during 'Dialog with Pain' and by the time the first tunes of 'The Deaf Cult' come out of my speakers, I’m starting to believe this is more of a doom band than a death metal band as they seem to have misled me during the first track. 'The Deaf Cult' by the way is definitely the girl song of the album, look at for instance the following line of the lyrics: “No one hears you. There's no one to talk to. No place to go now. There's no one to show you how.” Cute, don’t you think? But it’s not just the lyrics that makes this song so sweet it’s almost annoying; the slow, melodic guitar solo has a pretty big impact on this view as well.
To my surprise 'Another Link in the Chain' and 'Trapped Inside' are more up tempo as well, which to me feels out of place. I think it would be good for Grendel to decide which direction they are heading and on a personal account, I would advise them to concentrate on the slower songs, since this obviously is their stronger side. Nice melodic riffs and amazing clean vocals make A Change Through Destruction intense, despite the three tracks which shouldn’t have been on this album.

TRACKLIST:



Artist : Wardog
Country : USA
Release : Scorched Earth
Year : 1996
Genre : Heavy Metal
File Type : mp3 320

Info:

Wardog's new album, Scorched Earth has a certain heaviness to it, and is definitely very much guitar-oriented. The title track, which comes first on the album has a very Iron Maiden-sounding feel to it. Overall the intricate, fast-alternating guitar riffs and the higher-pitched vocals have a bit of an 80's flair. However, the music is definitely not cheesy or wimpy at all. It is basically very well played uncompromising classic metal. The guitar really stands out with excellent highly technical pounding riffs and solos throughout the album and with an excellent spanish guitar-influenced melodic acoustic passage injected into the mix as well -- look for it in the middle of track 9, "Tomb Of The Slain". The drumming is very potent and very effective as well, a relentless, fast, rhythmic pounding that keeps you locked into the album.




TRACKLIST:




Artist : Sword
Country : Canada
Release : Metalized [Remastered]
Year : 1986
Genre : Heavy Metal
File Type : mp3 320

Info:

Sword was formed in Canada by brothers Mick Hughes (vocals) and Dan Hughes (drums), guitarist Mike Plant, and bassist Mike Larock in early 1985. Signing with local Aquarius Records, the band cut its solid, though hardly groundbreaking, debut Metalized in 1986. The band's sound was a muscular brand of classic metal with tasteful riffs and solos by Plant and infectious shout-along choruses. The band never made much headway south of the border, however, and split up soon after recording their sophomore album Sweet Dreams the following year.
* Classic metal comparable to Overkill, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest.

Info:

 Home demos were made for early song ideas, though a second album was only in the infancy stages. These demos have erroneously turned up as the never-released second album, which was to be called New York Times, though against the band's wishes or approval. The band broke up in April 1992 when Roxie returned to Los Angeles to become the guitarist for Alice Cooper. Shane, Jonathan, and John returned a few years later, sans guitarist Ryan Roxie who was replaced by Richard Tressan and with the addition of John Ceparano, as The Loveless, releasing A Tale Of Gin And Salvation in 1995.

The Electric Angels, again without Roxie, reunited in early 2000 for a one-off radio appearance on WDHA's The Tour Bus.

One of their first New York shows was opening up for the British band Dogs D'Amour and Mother Love Bone, which soon became Pearl Jam. Their self-titled debut was recorded in London in the autumn of 1989 by David Bowie and T.Rex producer Tony Visconti and released in February 1990. They were reviewed favorably as a cross between The Replacements and Hanoi Rocks. The band let their contract with Atlantic expire in 1991 due to poor promotion on the part of the label.

Artist : Megadeth
Country : USA
Release : Killing Is My Business...And Business Is Good! [Remastered]
Year : 1985
Genre : Heavy Metal
File Type : mp3 320

Info:

After being dumped across the country by his former band mates in Metallica, Dave Mustaine was, understandably, pretty angry After all, he had the most writing credits on the band's first album and Metallica was doing exceedingly well in the metal underground. Oh and he was stuck in New York. He vowed to get revenge on his ex-band mates (somehow), and as luck would have it, Dave found himself a new band. The band was to be called Megadeth and which eventually included Chris Poland on guitars, David Ellefson on bass guitar, and Gar Samuelson on drums. 1985 rolled around and Megadeth released its debut album, Killing is My Business... Poor production qualities plagued the record, but it was fairly successful none the less. Fast-forward some 17 years and here we have Dave Mustaine, agreeing to fix the mistakes of the band's past and remastering the album.

Country : Canada
Release : Hard Rock Story
Year : 2011
Genre : Hard Rock
File Type : mp3 320


Info:

Helix is a Canadian hard rock/heavy metal band. They formed in 1974, and are best known for their 1984 single "Rock You." The original lineup was formed by drummer Bruce Arnold, and consisted of lead vocalist Brian Vollmer, guitarists Ron Watson and Rick "Minstrel" Trembley, keyboardist Don Simmons, and bassist Keith "Bert" Zurbrigg. Their most well known lineup, however, and the one that recorded "Rock You", was the 80s version of the band: Vollmer on vocals, accompanied by guitarists Brent "The Doctor" Doerner and Paul Hackman, bassist Daryl Gray, and drummer Greg "Fritz" Hinz. The history of the band has been marked by many lineup changes, with Vollmer being the sole constant member and only remaining member of the original lineup. Although guitarist Paul Hackman was killed in a tour bus accident in 1992, the surviving members of the 80s lineup reunited in 2009 for an album and continue to tour in 2011.

Artist : Amorphis
Country : Finland
Release : Skyforger
Year : 2009
Genre : Heavy Metal
File Type : mp3 320

Info:

I have been a long time fan of Amorphis since the early Death Metal days. I knew there was something very different about the band when I first heard Tales From The Thousand Lakes. I have watched Amorphis slowly grow artistically and prove that there is more to Heavy Metal than shock value and screaming. I was very excited when I heard that Amorphis was goig to release Skyforger as I have been more and more impressed with every album since the early '90s. I'm very pleased to say this is by far the best album I've heard in the last decade at least, maybe longer. I put the CD in my player and listened from beginning to end without skipping a single track. If I had to pick two favorites they would be Highest Star (I never thought a flute would fit with metal so perfectly) and Course Of Fate (It just rocks there's no other way to explain it). If you've never heard Amorphis before this is an AMAZING example of what Progressive Death & Folk Metal should be. Beautiful melody, raw power, real feeling, and pure love of music.

Artist : 38 Special
Country : UK
Release : Wild-Eyed Southern Boys
Year : 1981
Genre : Hard Rock
File Type : mp3 320

Info:

38 Special never quite made it on their southern rock roots, despite having a lead singer name Van Zant, as in Donnie, younger brother of Lynyrd Skynyrd vocalist Ronnie.
The band regrouped and shifted away from a more traditional country rock sound and plugged in a tad more distortion and became a hard rockin’ southern delight.
After a smidgeon of success with 1980's Rockin’ into the Night, the band released Wild-Eyed Southern Boys the following year and it went Top 20, and sold Platinum. The next year Special Forces went Top 10 and sold another million plus albums making 38 Special rock stars.
Now, BGO Records has released a CD that has both classic albums on one disk. The hits are all over this sucker including from Wild-Eyed Southern Boys there is “Hold on Loosely,” the title track and “Fantasy Girl.” Special Forces continues with “Caught Up in You,” “Chain Lightinin’ and “You Keep Runnin’ Away.”
