Still Got the Blues
level 12 SilentScream213   60/100
Very good Blues album driven by strong vocals and nice guitarwork. Moore’s more soulful tracks like the title track do a great job of what Blues are supposed to do; give you a sad song to drown your blues in. The more energetic tracks are sometimes saved by the decent guitar riffs, but Blues are not supposed to be uplifting.   Feb 12, 2021
Heaven Can Wait
preview  Gamma Ray preview  Heaven Can Wait (1990)  [EP]
level 12 SilentScream213   75/100
Neat little ep with some more eclectic material from Gamma Ray.   Feb 12, 2021
Heading for Tomorrow
level 12 SilentScream213   80/100
Solid Power Metal album from ex Helloween guitarist. Like Helloween, it's just fun material. Nothing too serious, but definitely some great energy and melody to it.   Feb 12, 2021

Impact Is Imminent
preview  Exodus preview  Impact Is Imminent (1990)
level 12 SilentScream213   85/100
Better than Fabulous Disaster, at least all the songs are pretty serious this time. Disregard the awful cover art, this is a straightforward thrasher.   Feb 12, 2021

Excalibur
preview  Dionysus preview  Excalibur (1990)
level 12 SilentScream213   75/100
Completely unknown outside Korea, Dionysus were actually laying down some of the first pseudo-Symphonic Metal here. Nice touches of Neoclassical and Power Metal throughout.   Feb 12, 2021
Lock Up the Wolves
preview  Dio preview  Lock Up the Wolves (1990)
level 12 SilentScream213   75/100
More by the numbers Dio, as he's been doing since Sacred Heart. Not really any weaker than the previous two.   Feb 12, 2021

Cracked Brain
preview  Destruction preview  Cracked Brain (1990)
level 12 SilentScream213   90/100
Insanely underrated album from Destruction just because of lineup changes I imagine. Lyrics are pretty awful and the music is simplified a bit from their previous Tech Thrash days, but otherwise? Some of the meanest Thrashing around, fantastic riffs and vocals.   Feb 12, 2021
Tortured Existence
level 12 SilentScream213   90/100
Some amazing music here, insane riffs and awesome vocals. Would be a perfect DeathThrash album, but the production sucks. The drums in particular are quite ruined, but still the amazing music saves it.   Feb 12, 2021
Act III
preview  Death Angel preview  Act III (1990)
level 12 SilentScream213   80/100
The most consistent and safest of Death Angel's original run. Interestingly, they add some acoustic Thrash in there, other than that it's pretty straightforward material.   Feb 12, 2021

Spiritual Healing
preview  Death preview  Spiritual Healing (1990)
level 12 SilentScream213   95/100
I prefer this to the previous two, oddly enough. More melodic, the riffs are top class, the vocals are great and the lyrics are a huge improvement to some of the nonsense on the previous albums.   Feb 12, 2021

Danzig II: Lucifuge
preview  Danzig preview  Danzig II: Lucifuge (1990)
level 12 SilentScream213   55/100
Danzig just doesn't impress me. Elvis vocals over really generic Hard Rock/Heavy Metal. The riffs are uninspired and simple, and the vocals aren't exactly catchy or anything.   Feb 12, 2021

Opera Decima - the World of the End
level 12 SilentScream213   40/100
Not actually any Doom Metal here... or Rock of any kind, for that matter. This is a purely Ambient/Experimental Paul Chain album, and it's some 2 hours or more of dreadfully boring material.   Feb 12, 2021
Vanity / Nemesis
level 12 SilentScream213   70/100
Not great, but certainly not too bad either. Pretty middle of the road.   Feb 12, 2021
Tattooed Millionaire
level 12 SilentScream213   60/100
Bruce's solo album is mostly anthemic Hard Rock/Heavy Metal. Truly uninspired, somehow not only is the music obviously worse than Miaden, but Bruce just doesn't have the same flair either.   Feb 12, 2021

Tales from the Twilight World
level 12 SilentScream213   90/100
Blind Guardian hit their stride as a Power Metal band here. The Thrash influence is fading, and the songs get more epic. In all honesty? I prefer the Thrashy debut, but this is still fantastic.   Feb 12, 2021

Underrated as hell, this oddly epic Black Sabbath album has their most passionate material yet. Just a ton of classic Heavy Metal here, and god damn Tony Martin's vocals are absolute top class all over this thing.   Feb 12, 2021

By Inheritance

Fantastic album full of intense, melodic thrashing, but also plenty of mid-paced material that almost touches on arena rocking. All done very well though.   Feb 12, 2021

Persistence of Time
preview  Anthrax preview  Persistence of Time (1990)
level 12 SilentScream213   70/100
Anthrax slow it down to almost Groove Metal on this one. Some of the songwriting is better than the last few, but honestly it gets boring to hear Anthrax at mid-pace. I prefer straight and simple Thrash from these guys.   Feb 12, 2021
No Smoke Without Fire

Quirky and crazy Crossover Thrash. Some of it is a joke, but the riffs are seriously good in many parts. One of those funs albums that occasionally rips.   Feb 12, 2021

X Japan give us our first taste of their ability to write the greatest ballads of all time. And also, a ton of fantastic Speed/Heavy metal.   Nov 1, 2020
Control and Resistance
level 12 SilentScream213   90/100
Just as good as the debut, a work of madness that could be the most technically impressive album of the entire decade. Watchtower released just two albums in their career and they remain the backbone of hyper technical metal.   Nov 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

간만에 듣는 수작 프로그레시브 젠트 앨범. 개인적으로 프록을 좋아하지 않음에도 불구하고 리프가 살아있고 복잡한 연주보다는 분위기나 리듬이 강조되어 듣는 재미가 배가 되었다. 보컬이 그로울링이었더라면 취향 100점 짜리 앨범이 되었지 않을까라는 생각도 드는 앨범.   Apr 29, 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

Long Live Rock 'N' Roll
level 13 metalnrock   100/100
리치가 베이스를 1–3, 6를 연주했다. 그 외의 스튜디오는 밥 데이즐리 연주. 어렸을 때에는 1,5를 굉장히 좋아했었는데 문제는 5를 라센 시기에는 듣질 못했었다. 지금은 오히려 4번 같은 곡이 애청곡이 되었다. 앨범으로 기준으로도 1,2집보다 더 좋아했던 기억이 있다. 8번은 역시나 디오의 또 다른 보컬 맛을 느끼기 좋은 곡. 디오 재적시의 앨범은 영원할 것 같다.   Apr 20, 2024

3인조 코로너의 전 앨범 특히 2,3,4집을 좋아합니다. 옛날에 3집을 LP로 구입했었는데 속지에 시계, 스위스, 큰 글자로 '그로테스크' 라고 적힌 기억이.. 이후 90년대 중후반에 걸쳐서 전 앨범을 시디로 하나씩 모았죠. 30년간 신보를 안 내고 재결성 후에 아직도 활동하는 것도 특이한데, 그만큼 고정팬들이 많다는거 거겠죠.   Apr 25, 2024

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.   7 days ago
