Apart from the obvious SLAYER, METALLICA etc... the others I can think of that released great albums & then lost the plot are: HEXX (well not really, but not great), SABBAT (UK - let's face it 'Mourning Has Broken' was not good), E-X-E (terrible image change), CELTIC FROST (Cherry Orchards=blurr...

ah...forgot to answer the topic of the thread after all that!

A t-shirt I would really love to have is a DESEXULT shirt! My fav logo ever!

(besides classic Voivod )

This is by far the worst ever Slayer t-shirt! http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-SLAYER-T-Shirt-concert-tour-motley-crue-RARE-88_W0QQitemZ250088563565QQihZ015QQcategoryZ28022QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Everyone I knew had one of these in the late 80's ...arrrgggh horrible!

I would recommend 'MESSIAH FORCE - The Last Day', from Canada! Tis truly outstanding melodic speed metal! Perhaps a bit like Warlock/Znowhite, maybe not as aggressive as Znowhite??!?? ...& please do seek out all ACID releases! GODLY female-fronted metaaaaaaaaaaaal! :twisted: Cannot stress enough...

Some of those early HR/HM-with-very-small-hints-of-glam can be awsome. Some personal faves would be CRISIS - "Armed to the Teeth", ALIEN - "Cosmic Fantasy" and PERENNIAL - "You're the ones". How does it compare to these? HELL Yeah! ...and AXATAK, LE MANS, HAWK, HIGH TE...

Has anyone heard this album BTW? Looks like crossover stuff??

I have a couple of SHAH albums that are quite good.

BLESSED DEATH - Hour Of Pain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fuck, I love this band!

Typical aussie/british slang bullshit,I can understand it just fine, but I don't want to see those annoying words on my screen, I'm sure you've been banned from other forums for being an annoying "cunt" as I've saw here. Not exactly the best use of the English language in the last sentenc...

I don't consider many bands having a full catalog worth owning, I've heard of people buying shitty albums from bands just to "complete a collection" or whatever else I don't believe in that. One shitty album I will never buy to complete my collection is Celtic Frost - Cold Lake! Awwwwful ...

I will only buy a re-issue if it has bonus tracks & extra liner notes or has never been released on CD etc... yesss the Karthago, Axe Killer & High Vaultage re-issues are exceptional. All have great sound & quality booklets. I recently acquired most of the Roadrunner/Metal Mind re-issues...
