"Suffering Hour" all the way for me. I was particularly fond of "Butcher's Block" when I played this back in the day. I used to own the American cd but I sold it. I'd love to have this again but its $142.95 at Amazon marketplace. Ouch! Apparent there are crap bootlegs about that ...

Interesting thread. Here's a good one by one of my favorite bands (see avatar): THE RODS - "Bad Blood" actually manages to rip off 2 riffs in one song: The opening riff is Priest's "Electric Eye" and later on in the track they steal a major "Breaking The Law" riff. Then...

I think it is the other way around. I know almost every vinyl collector will wait to pick on the LP version, and very very few of the CD collectors will buy the vinyl if there is no CD release (the majority of the CD guys dont even own a turntable) As for me, you are right. I have so many cds that ...

http://www.geocities.com/sorcery_2/stuntrock.htm The dvd of this movie is getting an official release in anamorphic wide screen in Australia soon with a US version following in a few months from a company called CODE RED. I'd wait for those for anyone interested in the actual film. As for the music...

wasn't really into any kind of scene in the 80s but "speed metal" for us back then was, for example, HELLOWEEN - Walls of Jericho. SLAYER, early METALLICA etc. were labelled thrash. Thats the way I remember it too. The first time I remember anything (at least in print) being referred to a...

Razor - Executioner's Song I have this on Attic/Unidisc???? Is this not official? I also have Malicious Intent & Evil Invaders same pressing..? Far as I know - those are official. I got mine at Tower Records at the time and Amazon Canada sold them too. While nothing in this area is ever 100% I'...

Heavy Load Jap CDs are legit, but those copies of Jap CDs selling on eBay are counterfeits. First they appeared as 'Jap CD w/o obi', but now it seems like those bootleggers are smart enough to include the obi in their counterfeit CDs. Back on topic, it would be great if someone can rerelease the De...

The Japanese cds of "Death or Glory" and "Stronger Than Evil" are legit. I have both of them. The "Full Speed At High Level" cd is a boot however. I have that and its pretty low quality - it even has a "vinyl skip" on it. I've never seen the Greek HEAVY LOAD b...

I'd love to see proper re-issues of the Highway Chile albums! I LOVE Storybook Heroes (my avatar)! HIGHWAY CHILE is a great example of a band thats classic catalog has never been touched on official cd. I've never heard them (this was one of the few bands I missed out on back in the day) but I'd bu...

The First two Wild Dogs albums were officially released for the first time on CD by North Wind. Although, I would like to see "Dead To The World" finally released... Thanks for that info - I had no idea North Wind were putting these out. It looks like they have the first 3 on the cards fo...

Mike as quite the back catelog that he still has the rights for... Yeah, he does and he's been pretty uncooperative about either a) putting the stuff out himself, or b) licensing out titles at times. Luckily, we finally got the EXCITER and RODS titles he had control of after years of waiting but I'...

ADX - "Execution"

Just discovered that Amazon France had this on a budget official cd. Good stuff - even with those pricey shipping prices to the USA. Now where are the second, third and fourth albums on cd? This same label did almost the whole VULCAIN catalog so why skimp on the ADX?

I'm new here, so even though I did a search, my apologies if this topic has been covered before. Probably a crime around here :) but what I collect are cds (I do not even own a turntable) so I rely on the independent labels to put out the obscurities that I want on cd. Most of these are records that...

The album sorta pends between the HR/"nwodhm" of OY905 and the punk of Pinned On My Eyelids. I'd like to see Heavy Rocker and Tame Me added to that MySpace page asap. The best and heaviest 2 tracks imo 8) I agree about "Heavy Rocker" - its an amazing metal track. The whole album...

I went with "Painkiller" because I just dig all the balls-out aggression on it. I always love it when an older band shows the younger bands there is still some life in the old dogs. PRIEST had a few years under their belts in 1990 but they delivered the heaviest album of their career. Afte...
