AMAZING DELORES - STOP MESSING WITH MY MIND 1994 (US)

This one is just way, way out there, I cant remember this chicks back story exactly. She was the subject of one of Jacob Young's films featured in the Different Drummer series, all of which are worth checking out. She hails from Mudlick, West Virginia, around the same parts as Jesco and Hasil. Anyway I had the pleasure of actually seeing her live sometime back in the mid 90's, truly a sight to see. She did most of these songs and then totally flipped out while doing "Great Balls of Fire", almost to the point something like G.G.Allin. Very crazy indeed for a 50+ woman with a beehive. For the most part the music on this album is a little boring but the singing and lyrics really keep you guessing, just take a look at the song titles, wild shit. For the adventurous listener only.

CAMARGUE - HOWL OF THE PACK 1983 (UK)

This one is pretty obscure I think, I couldn't find out much about it. The a-side really kicks ass in a mid tempo kind of way, basically just classic NWOBHM that would please most fans of this kind of shit, personally I love it. However the b-side really stinks and sadly I think this is their only single. I doubt I will ever own this one, but who knows.
1.Howl of the Pack

AXEHAMMER - LORDS OF THE REALM 1987 (US)

Here's some seriously great fantasy based Classic/Power metal. Totally awesome vocals and some fantastic riffs. The first 5 tracks were recorded in 87 and but weren't released at the time for some reason, I don't know why, but its a terrible shame because these guys are a hell of a lot better than a ton of other bands. The last 3 are from demos. Totally Top notch shit! Tons of energy with unique and original songs. Again I really dig the super power metal vocals, this is just a really great metal record all around, too bad they didn't do more!
1. Princess
2. Lord of the Realm
3. Sands of Time

CENTURION - TWO WHEELS 1982 (UK)

Fucking fantastic shit on this one. The punky title track is one of my favorite NWOBHM tracks ever, totally awesome, motorcycles and rock 'n' roll, what else do you need. I would love to own this fucker. The b-side isn't nearly as good but it has a certain juvenile charm that I appreciate. This should appeal to anyone who loves true metal. Enjoy!

HELS - BIRTH 1985 (SWE)

Here's a very doomy and depressing piece of classic metal. This has different style and vibe than most metal from this period, but it also doesn't fit into the typical doom mold either, I really loved the demonic background vocal and the over all sound is very metal, also love the simple cover, great stuff check it out.
1.Birth

GRAVE - SCREAMING FROM THE GRAVE 1983 (SWE)

Great NWOBHM-esq single from this Swedish entity. Great shit with a lot of energy and funny keyboards, very reminiscent of Rainbow at times even, not like that's a bad thing right? Anyway great single, both tracks are rocking and entertaining enough for repeat listens. got to mention this great little cover

HELLSTOMPER - THE LAST HOEDOWN 1995 (US)

A killer piece of redneck punk here, maybe even the be all / end all of the style to be honest. You would be very hard pressed to find another band that does this shit with more backwoods anger and fury. Many have compared this to ANTiSEEN over the years and even Nine Pound Hammer, rightly so I guess, that is what this comes closest to in a lot of ways. But where as ANTiSEEN went the whole destructo rock, blood, guts and glory to the max route, so you knew they weren't purely countrified, but maybe more of a punk/redneck weirdo hybrid. While Nine Pound Hammer have always come across like they were kind of making fun of rednecks and Hillbillies really. But these dude's have a completely redneck image, hillbilly outlook and are 100% believable. There's no real tongue in cheek sentiment here per say, even though in some ways their really not being entirely serious. But the over the top shock value of songs like "If you Ain't from Georgia" and "Hellstomper", make them quite hilarious. On par with David Allan Coe's finer X-rated material and just as offensive. In many ways this truly aspires to be those classic D.A.C. albums, going as far as to bravely cover the classic "Rails", fortunately Hellstomper are more than capable of living up to their name and the giant shoes they try to fill, this single is pure proof. I cant say enough about how amazing and rocking this record is, truly a classic piece of wax. They have a shit ton of other releases and all of them are good, so if you like this one, get the rest! This is NOT, I repeat NOT for the easily offended or for those who are prone to getting their panties in a bunch!

HAP & MARTHA PALMER - WITCHE"S BREW

Here's a very interesting album for you folks today. Though at first this looks like your average Halloween record, its really a speech therapy album? WTF right? Who knew witches had teaching abilities. Don't let any of that stop you from checking it out though, because I must admit the title track is brutally addictive. When I first heard it I just thought it was goofy, but then I got the urge to play it over and over again to the point that I picked up my guitar and learned it just to sing and play it around the house! Certainly not for everyone but I'm sure there are plenty of you who will enjoy this little oddity.

HARDWARE - COMMON TIME HEROES 1984 (GER)

Here's a pretty good one from Germany, not a perfect album by any means, but there are some really good parts. Over all I really like the guitar sound and the general sound of this record. If there is anything I would change, it would be the sometimes weak vocals. Not all the time but sometimes this guys just sounds wimpy as hell. They aren't playing thrash metal or anything but still the vocals could use a lot more balls. That aside I dig this record pretty well, it will certainly appeal to fans of 80's glam and hard rock. My favorite here would have to be "On the Run". Check it out.
1.Hot'n'Ready
2.In the Night
3.Tough Lover
4.Lady Dynamite
5.Easy to Say
6.On the Run
7.Sun City
8.Breakin' All the Rules
9.Bad Toy

This is one that I had read about a lot and I really wanted to hear it. Finally I got a hold of it maybe a year ago. It wasn't as amazing as I had hoped but still, its a great piece of heavy, doomy and strange music. I would have probably bought this on the name alone, ha ha. Roll one and enjoy!

LES BAXTER - BLACK SUNDAY OST + BARON BLOOD OST

Here's a couple of obvious choices (yet I didnt have them until a month or so ago) sent to me by my good buddy Noel, thank you ,thank you. Both of these are very atmospheric and moody just like the movies. If you haven't seen either of these Mario Bava classics, do so without hast. Two totally classic scores to two totally classic films! Dig in. http://www.mediafire.com/?okgwqhznrdn
