"metal from hell" fucking owns you all, period. as for the 'production', who cares?! i'll gladly take a recording with a unique vibe and feel over today's sterile powerless slick metal, BAH! :evil: that said, has anyone on here heard the followup 'midnight winds'? is it as good? a buddy is...

not too many, off the top of my head: CRYPTIC SLAUGHTER - stream of conciousness AVENGERS - discography on CD records VLAD TEPES - war funeral march EPITAPH - seeming salvation TOXODETH - mysteries about life & death SoRe ThRoAt - and we don't care ADRENALIN OD - wacky hi-jinx & humungousfun...

does THEORY IN PRACTICE count? they're definetly techy and proggressive, but pretty brutal musically and vocally...they even do a SPARKS cover!

cheers for the upload though

Isn't there a link to the "Scared to death" demo??

shit, i just now caught that; all i saw was "NY christian band" ontop...

thanks again!!

i checked around but couldn't find it, anybody on here know where to look (or can upload this?)

yeah, i've never considered CANDLEMASS a full-on xianmetal band, just a few subtle lines here & there; it's not like they had a church-going agenda or anything like that, haha...

i never caught any pro-god lyrics in MANILLA ROAD, guess i'll need to re-listen...

SACRED DEATH from Satan's Revenge II. i would kill to locate their 6 song demo! best bass tone since "severed survival"!

lots of good names mentioned, couple other forgotten gems: DIRGE - soulstorm (overlooked outfit on the late ANTHRAX records; ragin speed-pickin attack w/ gruff Lemmy vocals) PSYCHIC POSSESSOR - toxin diffusion (sweet stuff from brazil, has the drummer from VULCANO; sounds like one giant mosh part, h...

me too...'mindwars' pretty much obliterates it.

INCUBUS's 'serpent temptaion' was one of thee most brutal xian deathrash albums ever...

didn't CANDLEMASS have some cryptic xian lyrics too?

I first heard Nocturnus when I saw them open for Napalm Death way back in '91, I think. I saw them on that tour too. Great band, for sure. I feel like they were a bit overshadowed by Napalm Death and Godflesh on that tour (people kept referring to them as "that band with the keyboards"), ...

SACRILEGE B.C.?

debut's a ripper, followup's slower and more typical chugga-bayarea crunch, but it's grown on me...

most BayArea thrash is too tame for me, but POSSESSED, VIO-LENCE, ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENT (killer crossover!) and 'the ultra-violence' still gets regular spins 'round here..

About Pretty Maids though pity they went in the more poppy direction with each new release. Am still to hear the s/t MLP but it's at the top of my list. How does it size up to Red, Hot and Heavy? i think the EP is the best thing they've done! nice raw recording w/ a touch of that AOR sound; be sure...

man...you didn't listen...you didn't read! AT ALL! as if I was comparing Endorama to Kreator's discography and I'm hating them because of it! if you fail - give up! :mrgreen: fair enough, i've certainly given ppl crap in the past for choosing the 'wrong' albums by established bands...i think anothe...
