Cheers for the feedback guys! Agree w/ 'kit about the B-sides - they're way better than what bands usually put on the flip of EPs. I do like the A speedsters a lot though, since, well, it's really early Speed Metal so the spirit is there 100%. Playing faster than Those 3 Other Bands In Town = Extrem...

...because who doesn't need 3 different pressings of the Swiss Stormbringer, really

Cool selection as always. What's that alternate Noisehunter version?

The Market might be thin this year. Unlike most of the audience :-D Hey, don't look at me, I'm still skinny as fuck. :? I can confirm this. Khnud is Slenderman in human form. Instead of the long band-by-band review (because lazy) I'll just post The Highlight here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wP...

Cool to see you guys shared my infatuation with the Elightened Chaos issues ...and Praise Hail Janne Stark for lending me the originals for scanning! Yeah it would be super to add an interview with him to the site, so if anyone (octmetal?) wanna pick his mind about it, I'll gladly share my private e...

Not the Main , but hand-on-heart probably the 2nd reason I wanted to hunt down this US Metal classic was because it was strangely missing in the old Metalpage legacy archive. How bloody cool that it turned out to be an absolute Pearl of ye olde (19-bloody-84) US Power Metal then! https://thecorroseu...

I couldn't help adding yet another Singapore obscurity to the site since this is such an underappreciated pearl: https://thecorroseum.org/rev/hirescovers/selsius-sejarah-sebuah-cinta-front.jpg This is the 2nd album by the band VICTIM under a new moniker, but srlsy it's SOOOO much better & Heavie...

Another cancellation I'm afraid: Andy Preisig ...meaning one of the better record peddlers will be missing from the Metal Market :( Apparently this year's KIT collides w/ the Record Planet Mega Fair in Holland.. Rumour has it he's going to try to be at both. :| :mrgreen: Would to wonders to my chan...

Does this mean you're not coming? ...or are you selling for friends?

Would have been cool to see since I missed out on their small, borderline "secret" gig in Stockholm a few years ago, but not a complete disaster. Can we have SATAN'S HOST as a replacement co-headliner pleeeeeeeaase??

No comments necessary, but it is fascinating how some of these bands just shamelessly nicked a Big Classic Metal-Riff and then went their own way with it. There's plenty more examples from this particular scene for sure...

Thank you for sharing this - its been on my radar since the East Euro sampler/feature. Great to finally hear the b-side too. The quality of this rip is also a significant improvement over the sampler as well - almost a completely different song. Yeah, I had to "cheat" when adding this tra...

My exact reaction first time I heard it. Cool you liked it guys..

Now THAT is some Proper HM-Collector Pron!! :shock: To be 100% honest, I think this is a new world record in Most Obscure Top-Rarities Compiled In A Handful Of Pics, on this forum or elsewhere. That's some impressive work tracking all of those down... I can't help being especially impressed by how y...
