Ok I’m just gonna say I think the second Saracen LP has a few actually killer songs. Honestly the only really bad song on here to my ears is Love On Sight and Cheatin, which isn’t totally terrible either. I guess if you can stomach some Styx and 80s Heep/Rainbow with the heavier bits it’s pretty goo...

No Milano no S.O.D. same here. No Biafra no Dead Kennedys No Lemmy no Motorhead You're putting Billy Milano alongside iconic figures like Jello & Lemmy? Even Billy's own mum wouldn't put him in that bracket. :lol: It's a just a bootleg curio, a bit of fun recorded during lockdown. Nothing to ge...

Is Tysondog post NWOBHM? I always thought that Shoot to Kill 12" ep and the LP Crimes of Insanity were pretty under rated Yeah they would fit. Haven't listened to those releases in ages so cheers for the head's up - added to the subway playlist :) IMO the 12” EP and the LP I mentioned are way ...

Staying on Conquest Records (partly), it's time for a real oddity: https://thecorroseum.org/rev/hirescovers/blood-se-parare-nex-front.jpg I'm really curious to hear if someone else shared my obsession with the song "Incubus" that was featured on the Metal Inferno comp? Edit: https://www.y...

Just an idea I thought would be cool for the site. You've got your inserts and fanzines so it would be kind of cool to include some old promo materials if anyone has them to scan/upload? Maybe some vintage pins or patches if they're olde/kvlt enough? Wouldn't be mad if you weren't into this idea but...

Demon & Wizard - Evil Possessor (1982) France https://i.postimg.cc/fT22Dw5D/CAPA.jpg The band name, album title, artwork, year of release & song titles all point to this being a worthwhile listen but that's sadly not the case. Instead it's some weird combination of folk guitars & dronin...

I've never been to the store but i am aware of Armand Schaubroeck's recording career. He made some very odd records under the name 'Armand Schaubroeck Steals' in the 70s, the pick of which is probably the ultra-sleazy 'Ratfucker'. It's not Metal or even Hard Rock, more Lou Reed-like in nature. Hey,...

Nothing too rare on my part but on a recent trip to my hometown(Rochester NY) I took a trip to an old standby for record/tape memorabilia pillaging, Armand Schaubroecks House of Guitars. You might recognize the name cause there’s lots of pics of people from Exodus, Slayer, Motorhead, Van Halen, Han...

What criteria do punk/hc bands have to meet to be included? Would love to see some info on Boskops, Upright Citizens, Porno Patrol etc. I at least think Boskops brought some metal into their sound later on and they always had some heavy riffage and solos going on.

https://youtu.be/JaPlYtoNiCk GINBAE. This shit totally rules. Its like one foot in the lo fi Japanese heavy psych vibe of Flower Travellin Band, Blues Creation, Shinki Chen etc and one foot in Sad Wings/Sin After Sin era Priest I think. Either way really heavy and gnarly for 1976.

This ones more punk oriented, but it’s a vintage leather I got on the cheap that’s apparently from the early 70s and I added a bit to it. I think it might actually be the same style of jacket Bruce wears in the Iron Maiden “Aces High” video. 5575C72D-8965-4F63-94C7-CDE215F9A987.jpeg 5669BEF2-7C5E-4B...

Pleasantly surprised how good this LP is compared to their debut(which is still ok) and the English language LP they did afterwards(Strike, which was kinda lame). Love that intro hook on the first track.

Danava. They definitely have a FWOHM/NWOBHM sound on their later records. Earlier stuff has more prog/psych going on but this stuff definitely has Judas Priest, Diamond Head, Riot etc all over along with some lingering 70s vibes. https://youtu.be/VBxhaiUNGIw

Your badges reminded me that i found some of my old favourites last week after not seeing them for many a year. The Anvil & Hanoi ones are rusted to frigg, but the others have survived pretty much unscathed. https://i.imgur.com/fTC3Ri5.jpg I love those old badges with the enamel and the sparkly...
