Recent Metal finds (2010 edition)

A bunch of CD's.

The Lamp of Thoth - Cauldron of Witchery (so now I'm hooked to the Lamp also! Mighty mighty stuff!)
The Gates of Slumber - ...The Awakening (I like their more recent stuff a lot more, I already have all old Saint Vitus albums...)
Picture - Old Dogs New Tricks & Live 2008 (seems a better comeback than most, need to pour down a few pints of lager whilst playing these really loud this weekend for the final judgement - easily their best stuff since Eternal Dark in any case)
Gravestone - War & Doomsday (Ok, so it's not Metal but it feels nice to be complete after twenty or so years...)
Wrathblade - War of the Titans (some really nice melodies in there - definitely above average in it's genre)

Weird. Are the pralines moulded in the shape of the happy couple's heads? That would make a selling point hard to resist, even for a non-royalist like me. Their appearences would crave some rather heavy chewy pieces I guess. On the other hand were they to make candy of our present king and queen, a crisp and light Kinder Egg-styled thing would have felt more appropriate - only it has to be without the überraschung for maximum faithfulness to the originals...

Edit: Will keep this post in it's original form (bar this comment) to confuse future historians.

That is awesome, I've never seen it before. When was it released? Pretty dumb to make only 65 copies, you know they could have sold a shitload of those things.

Cool, this has always been one that I've neglected to pick up for whatever reason.

US or German press?

Embargo - Panem et Circenses and The Red Tide. This band absolutely kills!

that looks like something i might need

Me too

But judging by that popsike listing there's no way I'll ever obtain it. $300 for a release less than a year old

German press. Scored it for a dollar (shipping was an additional $5 to Oz) off of eBay, and it was still sealed!

Ok it's time to debate about this ... thing ?!

I wonder, what version is this ? I thought to receive the LTD 1995 version, this one looks like a very well done bootleg (there are the lyrics in the booklet, very well printed).
It has even a barcode and listed on the musik samm site http://www.musik-sammler.de/media/15688

Does anybody know who did it and when ? Surely after 2003 because until I was in the heavy metal scene there was no sign of this press, only LTD 1995 and the 1999 band reissue.
