This might be a long shot but, are there any?
Going there with my wife this Sunday.

If you're searching for something more obscure than Iron Maiden, I highly doubt it.

Haha, so I thought. Isn't Greece supposed to be the Mecca of US-Metal? Shops in Athens are supposed to be really good? Maybe in Turkey then; it's only 18 Km from Rhodes.

Where did you read that? Shops in Athens don't have anything really special, most of them are ordinary shops with common records and normal prices, the metal rarities you can find here are really few and far between.
The 'Mecca of US-metal' is a term I've never heard about Athens and is a bit exaggerated IMO. I guess it has more to do with the dedication of the fans to that particular style rather than the quantity of US metal records you find here.

Put some steel in your bathroom! At least your copy of AWOL should fit in perfectly.

I think I've heard it all when I see someone refer to AWOL as pure steel. I think what's happening on the cover is that guy is shitting out the masters for the EP, en route to where the music belongs. Not even close to being metal. Another case of rarity clouding minds. But hey, Psychotic Waltz sucks in comparison right Kuntz?

Haha, well i didn't compare those bands to each other if i remember correctly. I can't get into WALTZ at all, that's pretty much all is said. And I haven't even heard AWOL yet to be honest, so many albums waiting to be heard and i never made any statement on their music, so i don't really know what's your point??

But that's not the issue here, so please back to topic...
