Well, if you're going into joke bands such as Nanowar or Judas Prost, you always have Massacration from Brazil:

They signed that Nu-Metal band and released the album! Among many other such bands they were signing at the time. Talk about attitude, consistency and integrity!

I certainly don't see it as central to Metal, but it certainly plays or can play a part. I laugh a lot with Carnivore and Macabre, to bring up two names that were mentioned. 'Kraf dinner' (also mentioned) is in my opinion a perfect example of an amazingly killer song totally ruined by stupid lyrics,...

I have a lot of old Earache records back from the day, but ever since they started shitting on Metal and trying to dictate the new fad in "heavy music" each year or so, they were dead and gone to me. And this happened a long time ago. They have since sunk deeper and deeper as far as I am c...

I can understand that people who don't get their stuff feel bitter. On the other hand, I find it rather uncomfortable to write asking for something to be sent without even having to pay postage! I'd gladly pay for their stuff in order to support the band. I also find it interesting that so far I hav...

I was beginning to wonder what this gay lover talk was about as I had seen it previously around here. Mystery solved.

Let me further test the forum: Metallica Pantera Cradle of Filth

edit: Nothing. I wonder why you overlooked these.

Pagan Altar - 'Lords of Hypocrisy'

Is it just my dirty mind or is the dragon humping the E?

I do understand and I have nothing but praise for your efforts. The Ritual CDs are the only release from Shadow Kingdom I got that had problems. I acknowledge and enjoy the quality of the stuff you release, both physical and musical. I am thrilled with the re-edition of stuff like the Old Yron album...

Got the following on vinyl today: Quiet Riot - Metal Health Steeltower - Night of the Dog Hardline - s/t (Mausoleum edition) Accept - I'm a Rebel pic LP Disharmonic Orchestra - Expositionsprophylaxe pic LP and the Xero - Oh Baby 12" whose story I didn't know but here it is from Encyclopaedia Me...

And how would I be let down, pray? Would I have any pleasure in there being a problem with the CD? I don't believe this could be assumed mainly if we consider I buy nearly all of your releases and feel pride in supporting labels such as Shadow Kingdom. It just so happens I have an mp3 rip of 'Widow'...

And why not mention Nekro-torso - 'The Amazing Xmas Jingle Of Torso Family'.

I bought the CD and it's great. But there's a jump in the track 'Never for Evil' at 2 minutes 15 seconds. A damn pity.

The tape is killer, but I don't find it to be actually better than the 'Into the Undergloom' tape. Pretty much on the same level. I'm very looking forward to their next LP. I hope I get it!
