Seem to be leftovers from years ago..dont know if they've written anything together since they reformed but if they did imagine how bad it is if this is getting picked ahead of it

Quote from: Thorn on September 17, 2025, 07:25:23 AMTokyo Blade - Time Is The Fire 8.5/10
You certainly get bang for your buck these days with Tokyo Blade, for the second album running they chalk up well in excess of 70 mins, sounding more Sunset than Salisbury these days it's got to be said, the band really working those melodic sensibilities throughout these fourteen tracks and bringing all their 40+years of experience to the fore. This one has been hanging around the stereo a lot these past few months. Fair fucks to 'em.

Undergang - Indhentet af Doden 8/10
Five years now since the last full length, this one was the 2010 debut from these Danish Death dealers and it's a veritable cesspool of dank, grimy, bottom heavy Death that made quite a ripple in the sewers of the underground at the time. Get that new one out boys.

Hypocrisy - Obsculum Obscenum 8/10
1993's second one from Hypocrisy when they were  still more U.S. brutality than the alien baiting, infectiously melodic stuff they would soon make their own.

Unleashed - Fire Upon Your Lands 6.5/10
Fifteen albums in now for the (once?) mighty Unleashed and the blueprint remains the same, riff heavy, simple structured, festival friendly Swedeath,..decent album but VERY formulaic.

Helloween - Giants and Monsters 6/10
New one from the vast collection of musicians known as Helloween these days and it's business as usual but not all that many standout tracks. I preferred the last one. And another cover art from Kantor whose lofty style is completely at odds with the band's light hearted Pumpkin aesthetic. Oh well..

Annihilator - Remains 4/10
Picked up the new reissue of this having not even heard it back in the day. Baffled now why it warranted a repress , the world doesn't need to hear Jeff Waters doing White Zombie or Pantera that's for sure.  I saw this on Amazon about 7pm one night, pulled the trigger and it was on the door mat the next morning. What the fuck, like, were they waiting around the corner with it knowing I'd be suckered?

New Primal Fear album is surprisingly far better than the Helloween one..Like yourself i preferred the last Helloween album
