Stop it. About every truly amazing band there were in the forgotten underground metal scene of the 80's has been mentioned. GOTHAM CITY, ZONE ZERO, TYRANT, CIRITH UNGOL = Masters of metal, and Agents of Steel alike. Period. Case closed. "Every band" is quite harsh don't you think ? all me...

and the demo is in mono and sounds bad, I think the mp3's floating around are much better sounding. Actually only their first demo was released on that new cd. Does someone have that demo for upload? I used to have it on tape but it died. Great US-demo btw I have the demos and 2 live shows (on one ...

I actually try to listen to this stuff from time to time, but I just don't dig it. Get bored and stop in the middle usually.

Didn't like Solar Eagle at first listen, but second round proved it to be quite a nice record, same for the demo. Nothing to pay more than $20 for though.

First of all I don't think any of the bands mentioned belongs in the "overrated due to rarity"-cliqué. There are far worse examples imo, like [insert US Metal top-rarity of choice here]. 2nd it's very clear that I have a very different taste than Boris. TYRANT (Hold Back the Lightning) - ...

Therion - I bought Secrets of the Runes by a mistake (found a promo paper inside which stated "similar to early Paradise Lost" - but for some another album! Not my stuff at all. And one of the most boring bands I've ever seen. Their early stuff was decent death metal, if I remember correc...

Your opinions on the following bands ...

No 80's or unknown / rare stuff here. Just want to know the general opinions about some of my most favorite releases from the last years, which I would prefer over a lot of 80's stuff. 1. Grave Digger - albums from the second half of the 90's and the 00's. I just consider these so much stronger and ...

Just expressing my opinion. Hope most people here are liberal and ready to express opinions other than their own (many "metalheads" are not, sadly). Tastes vary even among the metal fans. The last thing I would like is to anger or offend anyone, just want to make this point as clear as pos...

What do you consider overrated by the underground ?

Well, I don't know how well such a discussion would go, but I wanted to give it a try. The jubject I wanted to raise here is that there are many bands and records which are hailed by the underground metal fans, but not everyone thinks they are so great. Be it records that are blindly considered good...

Well it's a good single I think. Sure it sounds more late 80's than NWOBHM, but it's quite good. I'll upload it if you want.
Hope to get to uploads this week.

Looks like he dubbed it lately, but I still need to clear that with him. He's sort of a man of few words this one ...
