[Eoin McLove]

Darkwoods My Betrothed- Autumn Roars Thunder.

I saw someone on YouTube describe the vocals as sounding like the Swedish chef from The Muppets, which is actually not far from the truth  that or Okoi Jones  I would have laughed at this in the 90s I think for that reason, I would never have given it a chance. I like it now, though. Great epic Bathory-ish music and I have a much higher tolerance for, and interest in, quirky singing voices. Cool album cover as well. Again, I think I would have found it retarded if I saw it as a teenager but I like it now. Made by Alex Kurtagic of Supernal Music and Benighted Leams "fame".

Sabbat- Envenom.

SCORPIONS - World Wide Live (1985)

It's just one song, but Helmet + David Yow covering Zeppelin's "Custard Pie".

Brilliant.

ANGEL WITCH - Angel Witch (1980)

30th Anniversary edition.

This is one of those albums like The Who 'Live At Leeds' where each expanded reissue is more and more brilliant and essential. 

Funnily enough, I recall a time, when I was just getting into metal, when these guys were mocked. When 'Cliff Em All' came out and the band (I believe it was Mustaine?) name checked them in an interview, the reviewer in Kerrang thought it was hilarious that anyone would even mention them, as if they were some sort of joke band.

They seemed to be regarded as laughable at that point by a lot of journos actually, who had the same contempt for the NWOBHM bands (outside of Maiden) as someone like Joe Elliott, who has always loved shitting on the likes of Saxon and Witchfynde, trying to distance himself from that era and metal generally, as if 'On Through The Night' doesn't even exist, not to mention early photos of the band decked out in Priest and Rainbow shirts.

It really is, and I find I listen to it more and more as the years pass. That, and the Satan debut.

How are you finding the new Brucie album?
