Quality Comeback Albums

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

I've stupidly never listened to Engram, and had forgotten it existed until this thread.

[Eoin McLove]

Engram is cool. It's probably safe to say that Beherit will never again be able to capture the strangeness and magical incompetence of DDTM, and Engram doesn't really come close. But that said, it is a really good album in its own right. There are elements that call back to DDTM here and there, more so in the experimental noise details, but it's quite a full bodied album with loud, dominating guitars. Having gone back to it recently for the first time in years I realise that the second half is where the more oddball and intriguing songs are, the first half being more like the 'hits'. Well worth a listen says me.

Brave New World? Heaven and Hell? I'd be tempted to say Formation of Damnation as well, I loved it when it came out.

[The Heretic]

RATT - Infestation

[Princess Of The Dawn]

Accept - Blood Of The Nations

[Cosmic_Equilibrium]

Black Gives Way To Blue

This.

Also Painkiller and the 2000s Maiden albums qualify. Probably Dehumanizer as well. The early 2010s Accept albums are another one. Also Sleep - The Sciences, and Saint Vitus - Lillie: F-65.

[Bürggermeister]

Surely you have to go away in order to come back?

Making a good album after putting out shit ones isn't a comeback, it's the lazy journalist's favourite, the return to form!

Bruce Dickinson - Accident Of Birth

Also Rhapsody Of Fire - The Frozen Tears Of Angels. This album really surprised me. Some amazing guitar playing on this.
