Reflection (Germany) - Made In Hell (2004)

Artist : Reflection
Country : Germany
Release : Made In Hell
Year : 2004
Genre : Heavy Metal
File Type : mp3 VBR

Info:

Reflection was formed in 1992 in Dortmund, Germany. Like their country mates Kreator and Destruction, they play thrash metal.
With their album 'Made in Hell' Reflection were called "one of the best German Thrash-Newcomers" by big German metal-magazines. Thrash Metal the Bay Area way, but more technical. The vocals have something from Gerre from the TANKARD. Razor sharp guitars and lots of breaks. Sometimes,they also drift into Progressive genres.

Rotting Christ - Non Serviam (1994)

Artist : Rotting Christ
Country : Greece
Release : Non Serviam
Year : 1994
Genre : Heavy Metal
File Type : mp3 320

Info:

I enjoy some Black Metal but not all. Many of the earlier Black Metal from Norway is just too primitive and scratchy in the production department, and they held onto that for a lot longer than many other groups. Rotting Christ does have a objectionable name which looking at their lengthy history, was a name picked up in the earliest days of the genre, and even though Rotting Christ changed their musical format, decided to keep the name. However their music is the most accessible style of black metal anyone could ever encounter, and has shown in over 2 decades of accomplishments that Rotting Christ is always cutting edge, creative and innovative. After a couple debut-ish albums comes 1994's Non Serviam. The recording and production is the perfect blend of black metal style bad production and and absolutely clear instruments and vocals. It doesn't have a perfect sparkly sheen of a production like 1996's Triarchy of the Lost Lovers. The instruments are flatter and a bit more scratchy and there is no clear air space like the next album, BUT every instrument is at the front, and perfectly listenable, which is what I feel made this album so fantastic. The Fifth Illusion starts the album off excellent with RC's trademark unmistakable riffing. Then comes Wolfera the Chacal, which is quintessential Rotting Christ, and is perhaps the greatest Black Metal song ever. Then comes the thematic Non Serviam. This is just a powerhouse of a black metal album. Their next album, Triarchy of the Lost Lovers is their masterpiece and I feel one of the best extreme metal albums, but Non Serviam absolutely needs its place right next to Triarchy. This is a must have.

Holy Moses (Germany) - Finished With The Dogs (1987) [Remastered]

Artist : Holy Moses
Country : Germany
Release : Finished With The Dogs [Remastered]
Year : 1987
Genre : Heavy Metal
File Type : mp3 320

Info:

Holy Moses has been around since 1980, amazingly, and is still putting out quality thrash (not like some other 80s thrash bands I could name). This album is their first classic, though. It's got that Teutonic brutality we all know and love, but it's ramped up here from Destruction or Sodom. Seriously, this is some brutal old-school thrash. A listen to the title track will tell you that. The riffing is tight and heavy, all the instruments are tight but just loose enough to get that rough edge. Killer riffs here. This is more straightforward and brutal than some of their "newer" albums like Disorder of the Order - it's going to beat your head in and you're going to love it.

Shadows Of Steel - Second Floor (2002) [Japan Edition]

Artist : Shadows Of Steel
Country : Italy
Release : Second Floor [Japan Edition]
Year : 2002
Genre : Heavy Metal
File Type : mp3 320

Info:

Shadows Of Steel is yet another Italian symphonic metal band that has come along in recent years. These guys are not new to the scene though, having released their debut album in 1996. Since then, they have released a double mini-CD and in fact recorded this particular album in 1999-2000. Unforseen problems resulted in the release being delayed until now, with only the single, Heroes seeing the light of day before the release of this album. The lead vocalist, Wild Steel, performs wearing a rather pointy version of a Phantom Of The Opera mask. This mask-wearing gimmick was originated in the 70's with Peter Gabriel and revisited again, briefly, by Fish from Marillion in the 80's. The band also consists of Ice Reaven and Yackson, guitar, Steve Vawamas, bass, and Frank Andiver, drums, previously with Labyrinth. Technically, this band is very, very good. The guitar playing is top notch as is the drumming and keyboard playing. They play a very fast, old Helloween -like power metal with symphonic textures and some progressive elements. Most tracks are very fast with very fast double bass drumming and shredding leads.

With Andreas Mislin, Roland Jost and keyboard player Manuel Wagner they soon had a team of musicians together that were sharing the same vision and were ready to push and establish the group.

Overdrive (Sweden) - Angelmaker (2011)

Artist : Overdrive
Country : Sweden
Release : Angelmaker
Year : 2011
Genre : Heavy Metal
File Type : mp3 320

Info:

If you’re a fan of Overdrive’s classic ‘80s albums, you will absolutely not be disappointed by their new material. Angelmaker is a very strong traditional heavy metal album, and one that should appeal to fans of classic metal (Dio, Riot, Iron Maiden), modern traditional metal (Wolf, Enforcer, Cauldron) and even melodic metal (Pretty Maids, Jorn). It’s good to see that after so many years Overdrive can still “let the metal do the talking.”

Mago De Oz - Finisterra (1998)

Artist : Mago De Oz
Country : Spain
Release : Finisterra
Year : 1998
Genre : Heavy Metal
File Type : mp3 320

Info:

Finisterra is perhaps one of the best heavy/power albums out there. Even if you don't understand Spanish, it is musically stupendous, stemming from Mago de Oz's boundless creativity and a quirky mix of Jethro Tull, Iron Maiden, and traditional baroque/folk music. Lyrically, Finisterra is a book of poetry, universal and apocalyptic in scope. A must have for any classical, metal, or folk fan.

Harry Hess - Just Another Day (2003) [Japan Edition]

Artist : Harry Hess
Country : Canada
Release : Just Another Day [Japan Edition]
Year : 2003
Genre : Hard Rock
File Type : mp3 VBR

Info:

Harry Hess is better known as the lead singer for Canada's classic melodic rock band Harem Scarem. Scarem pretty much releases an album every year, and they are always outstanding, so how Hess found time for a solo record I'll never know. Anyway, his melodic gift is in full force here, and the tunes are pretty similar to the Harem style with a bunch of random pop influences thrown in. A good buy for anyone familiar with Harem, as well as any melodic rock fans who don't mind a little bit of pure pop mixed into their hard rock. Probably one of the top 5 pop rock tracks of the year with "Look Right Through Me," also.
