I think that's all from this forum.

I've been digging a lot of Gama bands lately, especially Stormwitch and Gravestone.

You're thinking of Formula 1, a rather uninteresting, American sounding band.

Hey, that was me! $5!

I have the first one and I love that early German speed metal combined with a sort of NWOBHM sound that all those bands have. The next 2 have proven difficult to find unfortunately.

Another thing that makes the term confusing is that something's cult status depends on who you're talking to. Using the Cirith Ungol example, they would generally be considered cult but not on this forum where everyone knows them and people who don't like them are actually in the minority.

I generally check eBay, popsike and GEMM when judging prices. I need to get at least 2 different sources to consider it a worthwhile estimate.

That used to be a $50 record, but it may have come down now that there's a CD out. Anyone know if that's official, BTW?

No brainer for me too. METAL (I don't even drink.)

Awesome thread! I've always been curious about Redeemer. Does anyone have lyrics for Breaker - In Days of Heavy Metal? I don't think it ever came with any, but I figured I'd ask. I'm particularly curious to know what the last lines in the title track are that sound like "Take a ride with the ma...

Half the albums I ordered were gone too, but I still got some great deals. My stuff showed up Saturday. Of course, I live in the next state over so that helped. No problems here.

Sounds like you understood me fine, I just have a very different opinion than you. No big deal.

I also won't listen to music with blatant nazi/racist lyrics or imagery. I remember listening to Lester Maddox, not knowing at the time where they got their name, and really enjoying it until I saw they had a song called "White Power". At that point it didn't matter to me how good the musi...

Hmmm... black metal bands are unoriginal. Who would've guessed?

Here's one I remember from a while back. The one on the left is Enid's demo.

Heh, I think you forgot to look at the other 4 pages of the thread.

That's what mine looks like too. I'd be interested to see the other one.

Aragorn - Black Ice

How about this one?
