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.

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!

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.

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.

BRAM STOKER - SCHIZO-POLTERGEIST 1972

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!

THE DEVIL RIDES OUT - THE FILM MUSIC OF JAMES BERNARD

Great soundtrack to a downright essential movie. I cant stress how into this movie I have been over the years, a near obsession at times. This is another one Noel sent me recently and I know he has always loved this movie too. Thanks man! Anyway to me its just totally classic in like every way. This soundtrack is fucking great too and it really adds to the movie. If you haven't seen it, certainly make sure that you do. You wont be disappointed.

HORSE - 1971 (UK)

Yet another lost classic, this one is uber heavy and mean, I love the guitars, but I really love the lyrics. The first song is an instant classic. I absolutely loved this record start to finish.

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

ICECROSS 1973 (ICELAND)

Wanted this one since the first time I seen the cover, which is totally awesome. This doesn't quite live up to the weird cover image, but its pretty damn cool, strange and depressing. These guys seem totally backwards at times and then really progressive too. Very creative stuff, but not hippie rock or jam rock really. These dudes seem rather angry to be frank, this is very anti religious, which is pretty bold for 73. I love the fuzzy, sloppy guitar sound and all the songs are early metal sounding. This is definitely heavy and different. Check it out.

OSCAR BRAND AND HIS YOUNG FRIENDS - TRICK OR TREAT 1979

Alright here's some great Halloween shit for you today, had this album for quite a while before I got around to listening to it, man what was I waiting for, this is fantastic. Very folksy sing along songs that explore Halloween and various other weird themes performed in a storyteller style, with the kids even get in on the fun sometimes, which I love. Kind reminiscent of the Kay Lande and Wade Denning Album I put up a while back, but not quite that brilliant. If I had this one when I was kid, I'm sure I would have worn it out, just killer stuff. Of course I really like this cover also, all the cool library stickers make it even cooler. Would love to own this one someday. I know at least a few of you are really going to like this, you know who you are. Also I cant go without mentioning that this guy has written like hundreds of weird songs, spanning almost any and every topic, fucking crazy, you know this dude has got to be strange. Check out his Wiki link..Enjoy!

DAEMON - ENTRANCE TO HELL (UNRELEASED DEMO LP) 1970-1971 (UK)

WOW, here's another just blazing heavy rock record. Post-Atomic Rooster, Pre-Hard Stuff. Great heavy guitars play upbeat downer rock classics. How can an album this energetic be doomy, I don't know but that's just what this is. Again the guitars sound so great, the solo's and playing are top notch and the songs are all very well written. It would be hard to put these guys into just one category for sure. There's a lot of different shit going on here, but it's all hard and heavy. Fantastic stuff!!

WIKKA - WIKKA E.P. 1988 (CAN)

Great metal E.P. here. Great riffs and guitar sound, also dig the vocals a lot, kind of sleazy but kinda power metal. Pretty behind the times for 88, but that's OK with me! Most of these songs are slower and heavy, with a few upbeat moments. Sort of reminds of some the mid period Death S.S. from the late 80's also. Sometimes this has thrash vibe but the songs are very well written and well played. This is their only release which is pretty surprising considering the great music on this E.P., All around a really cool record and unique band... I love that logo..Totally profound!

TOTAL METAL FORCES ATTACK VOLUME TWO

Here is volume 2, also from the cassettes I made for some friends years ago, there are some really great songs here, some rare stuff and some basic shit too. Lots of great bands also, my personal favs here would have to be Prisoner's "Backstabber" (what a masterpiece and I love the fucking vocals, a totally intense and ponderous headbanger ) Hellion's "Don't take No for an Answer" (this band should have been so much bigger, this track is almost perfect rock metal) and Stormwitch's "Heart of Ice" (this is a pretty poppy song but I just love it, great sing along type shit). Their all good tracks though. Just all round good metal. Thanks to everyone who got the last one, hope you dug it ..Enjoy!
1.Prisoner-Backstabber
2.Black'N'Blue-Kiss of Death
3.Gravestone-The Real Death

P205 1976 (GER)

Here's a weird one for you folks that dig heavy rock and psychedelic shit. Personally I loved this one. This is a little late in the game by 76, but still this is a very unique album and certainly a must have for fans of the shit. Sometimes upbeat rock, sometimes weird as hell. I don't know anything about these German space rock weirdos, but this is a good album and a very different listening experience. Very heavy, very moody and doomy stuff, check it out.

STITCH - DEVILS DEAL 1982 (SWE)

Man what a great little single, just fantastic. Great vocals, great riffs and a ton of upbeat energy. Certainly in the NWOBHM vein. But this early example of full on Swedish metal is a little rawer and meaner. The b-side is the real catch here, but the a-side kicks like hell too. I love the logo and the truly metal looking photo cover, totally killer! This band has some later recordings that really suck it though, so watch out.

THRUST - FIST HELD HIGH 1984 (US)

Here's some more great metal for you this time its Chicago's Thrust. I first heard these guys on a weird comp that I pick up for a dollar or two somewhere called " Solidarnosc Rock for Poland". I have no idea what that title means, does anyone?. There are only two bands on the comp and none the less Thrust was easily the best. I have included that comp track here also. This great high energy fun/party metal type shit. Any real metal head will dig this for sure. Great music all around. Though sometimes this guys attempt at King Diamond are a little terrible, otherwise a great piece of wax.

THE HAND OF DOOM - POISONOISE 1979 (GER)

The one is so unreal, where the fuck did this record come from, its just flat out killer. If your as obsessed with this kind of music as I am, Its so hard to wrap your mind around a record this good existing without your knowledge. I mean were always finding new music and bands and now thanks to the Internet, its all actually able to be heard no matter for the most part how obscure it is. But still ever once in a while a record comes along that really reminds you why you dig so deep. First of all this is not a doom metal album, its actually some very heavy rock/punk/metal sounding insanity from Germany 1979. One of the best records I have heard in years. My friend Fenriz turned me on to this one last year on a comp he sent me, featuring the song "Rock 'n' Roll Close to the End of the World", great title right! That and every one of the other tracks here are a prefect mixture of caveman metal brutality, punk delivery and a completely bad attitude. Got to say the vocals are so fucking good!, from punk and straight metal to beyond Lemmy style to almost death metal growls. At times this could be compared to some of the meaner early Motorhead material, they don't sound like Motorhead really but this certainly has the same vibe at times. Very very heavy for 79. Lots of high energy riffs, all with a weird rock 'n' roll punk edge, its sort of like these guys are playing a weird party, don't get me wrong this record actually sounds really really good and not like a live album at all, still there is that special something, I just cant put my finger on it that makes it come alive. The guitar sound itself is pretty fantastic as well, very 70's but a little rawer. Anyway nothing short of essential. Get this one for sure. There is a reissue of this out on CD and vinyl that adds about 11 more tracks, well worth it I think.

FINAL WARNING - PDX 83-85 (US)

Goddamn this is a great punk record from these Portland weirdos. Very metallic but not crossover. A damn mean sound though and some really great songs. A little in the Exploited/G.B.H vein, but at the same time pretty original stuff. This record features Poison Idea members Glenn Estes and Charlie Nims (aka Myrtle Tickner) on bass. These guys got a lot of good shows with bands like Dead Kennedys, Scream, Dr. Know, The Exploited, G.B.H., Hüsker Dü, The Minutemen, D.R.I. and Mercyful Fate, but they never played outside the Pacific Northwest. To fucking bad. Totally essential hardcore punk!
