But you'd have to listen to the whole album you make up your amind about that.
More than Adramelch, I think this sounds like russian / eastern european metal, which isn't bad at all! Great discovery, is the rest of the album as good as this track?

And as great as this album is, it reminds me more of Helloween than anything else (which is obviously good).

It is possible I can make a new good rip since I have the lp, do you have anything you can offer in a trade that is worth the energy right now to do it(I have little energy to spare lately). send me pm in the meantime.

The whole album is glorious, but not an easy find. Check out this thread for more info: http://thecorroseum.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=8564

There is no band with similar sound to ''Irae Melanox''. The sound in that album is so unique.

I don’t know how we forgot to mention it since it is the most obvious resemblance!
Irae Melanox singer Vittorio Ballerio and later Adramelch guitarist Fabio Troiani participating should be enough!
Anathema released a demo that I am aware of called Salem Lunacy in 1989. I now see in metal archives they had another one in 1988 that I’ve never heard of. I would love to at least listen if anyone has it!
They play a similar style to Irae Melanox but a little harder. To my ears and to the (metal archives reviewer too) it sounds like Irae Melanox #2! Majestic!
Enjoy!

Oh yeah, definitely VERY Adra-ish. Great too. There seem to be an earlier demo as well. For those who read Italian:

OnT: SEXIT and TEGEN HART each bear similarities to Adramelch - in their own separate ways I should add...

Thanks DaN, those were really spot-on recomendations! This is why I love this site - I'd never ever bump into that SEXIT LP elsewhere and if I did I'd probably pass it by anyway "thanks" to the cover art.
