Of the Sun + Moon
level 12 SilentScream213   65/100
Something you might call weirdo metal. A very cult group that gets some claim to being an early prog band. Some of the compositions are really good, but many of them don't seem to go anywhere.   Apr 1, 2020
Reign of Fear
preview  Rage preview  Reign of Fear (1986)
level 12 SilentScream213   75/100
Rage is off to a good start. Very Thrashy Speed Metal here. The quality jumps around a bit, but when it's great, it hits the right spots.   Apr 1, 2020
Street Lethal
preview  Racer X preview  Street Lethal (1986)
level 12 SilentScream213   75/100
It isn't a Speed Metal masterpiece, but some of the guitar-work is really good, and the faster songs are great. When it slows down, it exposes the weakness in their song craft.   Apr 1, 2020
Rage for Order
preview  Queensrÿche preview  Rage for Order (1986)
level 12 SilentScream213   95/100
An absolute masterpiece of early Progressive Metal. It was not what I was expecting, and it took time to grow on me, but the almost poppy melodies and choruses are melded perfectly into proggy metal passages and plenty of lush keys are interspersed throughout. Every song is fantastic, even that bizarre cover.   Apr 1, 2020

Coroner's Office
preview  Post Mortem preview  Coroner's Office (1986)
level 12 SilentScream213   55/100
Very primitive and punky Thrash. Some good tracks and dark atmosphere, but most of it is very amateur.   Apr 1, 2020
In the Darkness
level 12 SilentScream213   45/100
This just doesn't do anything for me. The material is slow and boring, it wanders without going anywhere. The vocals are also really grating.   Apr 1, 2020
The Ultimate Sin
level 12 SilentScream213   75/100
I have trouble calling this the worst of Ozzy's first four, but it's definitely got more filler than most of the others. Despite that, it also has some really strong material - most notably the amazing Shot in the Dark.   Apr 1, 2020

The Force
preview  Onslaught preview  The Force (1986)
level 12 SilentScream213   85/100
Kind of an obscure Thrash album that some will swear by. It definitely does it's job, delivering punky rhythms and fairly long and complex songs full of evil riffs.   Apr 1, 2020
The Curse
preview  Omen preview  The Curse (1986)
level 12 SilentScream213   85/100
Omen keep up their constant speedy assault, but take a step deeper in the pool of melody. These songs either have energetic, crunchy riffs, or sweeping, catchy choruses. Unfortunately not often both, but a great effort nonetheless.   Apr 1, 2020

Orgasmatron
preview  Motörhead preview  Orgasmatron (1986)
level 12 SilentScream213   75/100
At this point, it was Motorhead's heaviest album. Chunky riffs and a mostly constant speed puts this a notch above their other stuff.   Apr 1, 2020
Twitch
preview  Ministry preview  Twitch (1986)
level 12 SilentScream213   40/100
Really basic Industrial with some elements of Metal and Synthpop, wouldn't call this full Industrial Metal. Not much in the way of melody or interest factor.   Apr 1, 2020
The Dark
preview  Metal Church preview  The Dark (1986)
level 12 SilentScream213   95/100
A masterclass example of how to combine fantastic Thrash riffs with more commercial Heavy Metal. Just an amazing album in terms of songwriting ability.   Apr 1, 2020

The Deluge
preview  Manilla Road preview  The Deluge (1986)
level 12 SilentScream213   85/100
It's not Power Metal, but it is expertly crafted, energetic and slightly progressive Heavy Metal of the highest order. Manilla's best!   Apr 1, 2020

Lightning Strikes
preview  Loudness preview  Lightning Strikes (1986)
level 12 SilentScream213   80/100
Loudness take a more commercial approach, but they don't lose an inch of their songwriting ability. The music is great... and that album cover rules!   Apr 1, 2020
Pleasure to Kill
preview  Kreator preview  Pleasure to Kill (1986)
level 12 SilentScream213   95/100
Intense, aggressive, abrasive Thrash. Very fast, very heavy, very good. The best of the Teutonic Thrash albums of it's time.   Apr 1, 2020

Turbo
preview  Judas Priest preview  Turbo (1986)
level 12 SilentScream213   70/100
Judas Priest go Glam! And it's not that bad. Most of the songs consist of boring vocal lines, uninspired riffs and amazing guitar solos, but tracks like Out in the Cold and Reckless are classic Priest bangers.   Apr 1, 2020

Remnants of War
preview  Helstar preview  Remnants of War (1986)
level 12 SilentScream213   80/100
Helstar upped their game from their relatively standard debut, this one faster and heavier. Overall just better stuff.   Apr 1, 2020
Stronger Than Ever
preview  Digger preview  Stronger Than Ever (1986)
level 12 SilentScream213   70/100
This one gets a lot of flak, but to me it sounds the same as the previous couple albums. Pretty mediocre metal.   Apr 1, 2020
War Games
preview  Grave Digger preview  War Games (1986)
level 12 SilentScream213   70/100
Rather sub-par metal from Grave Digger. A couple great songs, but a couple duds as well.   Apr 1, 2020
Nightmare Theatre
preview  Exorcist preview  Nightmare Theatre (1986)
level 12 SilentScream213   75/100
Very bizarre and unique release by the guys from Virgin Steele that ends up being one of the heaviest albums of it's time! Speed and Thrash with growls akin to Blackened Death. Kind of pointless concept theme going on but it's a crazy release either way.   Apr 1, 2020
Unveiling the Wicked
preview  Exciter preview  Unveiling the Wicked (1986)
level 12 SilentScream213   75/100
A step down from their previous releases, but there are still some very solid riffs to be found here. Decent Speed Metal.   Apr 1, 2020
Eternal Devastation
level 12 SilentScream213   80/100
Slower, perhaps more technical, but certainly not more entertaining than their debut. Their sound did become more unique here, but I prefer their more straightforward, faster style personally.   Apr 1, 2020
Infernal Overkill
level 12 SilentScream213   85/100
Great debut of the slightly technical band Destruction. Mostly straightforward Thrash here, but it's well done and rather melodic.   Apr 1, 2020
Praise the Loud
preview  CJSS preview  Praise the Loud (1986)
level 12 SilentScream213   75/100
Another good Heavy Metal release lead by Chastain, but nothing extraordinary.   Apr 1, 2020

One Foot in Hell
level 12 SilentScream213   70/100
Cirith Ungol develop some of their potential and deliver and more convincing album, with stronger vocals and riffs.   Apr 1, 2020
Ruler of the Wasteland
level 12 SilentScream213   75/100
Still a strong release with good riffs and vocals, but I find it much weaker than the debut.   Apr 1, 2020
Seventh Star
preview  Black Sabbath preview  Seventh Star (1986)
level 12 SilentScream213   65/100
Not bad, but nothing extraordinary here. It doesn't really sound like Sabbath because it was supposed to be Tommi's solo album, but taken as such it can be enjoyed as a more mainstream effort.   Apr 1, 2020
Tightroped
preview  Anthem preview  Tightroped (1986)
level 12 SilentScream213   80/100
Very good melodic Heavy Speed Metal, right up there with Loudness. A bit faster and rawer than their contemporaries.   Apr 1, 2020
Into the Dark Past
level 12 SilentScream213   90/100
The musicianship is phenomenal. It's far less evil sounding than most Thrash, with liberal Speed Metal influence, but the riffs are just so good. Not a single song without constantly solid music.   Apr 1, 2020

The Empyrean Equation of the long lost Things
level 13 caLintZ   90/100
군터 베르노의 부재가 오히려 곡의 diversity가 증가하는 방향으로 귀결되어 조금 변화된 VP를 느낄수있다. 그 와중에 코어는 전혀 흔들리지 않고 너무나 탄탄한 장르의 전형을 보여주는 뛰어난 앨범이다. 이들 특유의 늘어짐이 가끔은 지루하기도 하지만, 이정도 내공에 이정도 앨범을 찍어내는 이들은 결코 없으므로, 이제 당연히 명예의 전당에 입성해야 한다.   May 10, 2024

드디어 이들의 약점이었던 절제된 기타솔로가 어느정도 해금되었습니다. 지난 앨범도 만족스러웠는데 역시나 이번에도 실망하지 않게 해주네요. 나이가 들어감에 따라 내가 좋아하는 밴드들도 하나둘씩 늙어가고 멤버들도 세상을 떠나는 걸 보니 매우 슬프네요. 반덴플라스는 계속 음악활동 왕성히 해주었으면 좋겠습니다   May 8, 2024

밀레니엄 시기의 소위 '팝수성' 가득한 사운드로 청자를 타격한다. 특기할만한 것은 그 타격 지점이 RATM도, Limp Bizkit과 Korn, Slipknot도 내딛지 않았던 공간이라는 사실.   May 10, 2024

천재라 불렸던 자들은 진짜 총기가 불을 뿜는 때가 있다. 이시절의 나가쉬가 그랬다. 전작과 너무 다른 이앨범으로 전작에 버금가는 놀라운 사운드를 만들어냈다. 일렉트로니카와 익스트림을 섞어 부대찌개처럼 절묘한 융합의 새로운 맛을 냈다. 이렇게 세기말을 통과했던 이들은 너무 빨리 미래로 넘어갔다. 25년이 넘어도 여전히 미래적이다.   May 14, 2024

The Empyrean Equation of the long lost Things
level 9 ggerubum   80/100
이름값에 걸맞는 앨범. 특히 유럽 내에서 그들의 인기는 타의 추종을 불허한다. 처음부터 끝까지 단단한 구성과 강력한 연주가 여전하다. 하지만 들은 후 이렇다할 임팩트나 싱글지향적 멜로디 부재의 한끝이 아쉽다.   May 5, 2024

개인적으로 이 앨범을 그렇게 좋아하지 않는다. 이 앨범이야 말로 방향성이 애매했던 프로듀싱과 작곡으로 생각보다 안좋네 라고 생각했던 앨범. 물론 메탈 갓이 주다스의 시그니쳐로 쓰이기는 한데 이 곡도 애매하다. 브레이킹 더 로나 리빙도 맘에 안들고 물론 관중과 싱어롱할때는 좋긴 하다고 생각은 하지만 말이다. 75-80점.6번 8번이 의외로 좋다.   May 8, 2024

이 앨범 그냥 시대를 관통했습니다. 2030 고독사가 늘어나고 점점 사람들과의 관계가 멀어져 가는 요즘 시대에 살아가는 우리들에게 받아야할 위로를 이 앨범이 하나의 동화처럼 들려주기 때문입니다. 그리고 이 앨범의 모티브가 된 실화는 현 우리나라의 문제점을 그대로 나타나는 게 더 소름돋습니다.   May 12, 2024

만약 "드림시어터"의 음악으로 본 다면 이 앨범은 DT중 가장 쳐지고 가벼운 음반이 될 것이다, 만약 드림시어터의 "음악"으로 본 다면 이 앨범은 재즈,블루스 등을 잘 버무려 본인들만의 스타일을 접목시켜 만들어낸 이색적인 작품이 될 것이다. 물론 호불호가 당연히 있을것이다. 하지만 이 앨범은 망작이라는 평가를 받기에는 수려한 곡들이 가득가득 들어차있다.   May 18, 2024
