Shopping time for the tr00...

MORBID ANGEL - Illud Divinum Insanus
LOCK UP - Necropolis Transparent
DEATH - Symbolic
AT WAR - Retaliatory Strike
SODOM - In The Sign Of Evil/Obssessed By Cruelty
DESTRUCTION - Sentence Of Death/Infernal Overkill
EXCITER - Heavy Metal Maniac

--------------------

"Forty-five moments of perfection translated through a cautionary escape into the perils of the mundane, the inherent entropy in ultimate order, and the potential threats of eternal, unchecked apathy in civilization; all cloaked in musical expression so thoughtful, creative and forward thinking that almost a quarter-century later, few can even comprehend it, much less match it."

More from my Amazon buying frenzy:
Redemption - The Origins of Ruins
Redemption - This Mortal Coil (2 cd)
Redemption = The Fullness of Time
Redemption - Snowfall on Judgement Day
(I've always enjoyed Ray Adler's vocal, so I'm not sure why I put off buying these for so long)

Tribuzy - Execution (stumbled across this while searching for Bruce Dickinson stuff. he sings on a couple tracks and all the samples sounded pretty impressive anyway)

*after listening to the first batch of discs i received yesterday i reminded myself to STOP making impulse purchases, since a couple of the cds ended up being pretty boring and I lost interest quickly. The Circus Maximus album falls into that list. the samples sounded pretty cool, but overall the album is redundant prog metal that's been done a million times by every average prog metal band... YAWN. Luckily I only purchased the one album of theirs and not their entire catalog like I do a lot of times with some bands that peak my interest.

AEROSMITH - Pandora's Box

Metallica - 30th Anniversary Shows: downloaded the first 3 nights from Mettalicalive.com. (waiting for them to post the last show) Aside from the 3 tunes they torture the audience with when they invite Lou Reed to sing on the second evening, these are incredible. So many great guests show up including 4 of the original members of Mercyful Fate!!! Definitely worth getting.

Seriously man, that is a major haul of heavy tunes. Nice.

Probably the last finds of 2011 for me here...

- Jane: Together
- Jane: Earth, Fire, Water, & Air
- Rush: Moving Pictures [Deluxe Edition]
- Witchfinder General: Death Penalty

Jane is some pretty nice German prog from the 70's... kind of in the vein of Pink Floyd, though maybe a bit darker. Been looking for that first one "Together" for a while now.

I have some serious gaps to fill in my collection, so I decided why not starting. In the process, I get to remember one more time how 80's Metal is amazing.

And Paul, maybe you should give Obsessed By Cruelty another chance. I also didn't like it in the past, but now, after some listening, I have a newfound love for it.

I have that first Jane album 'Together' on vinyl. It's pretty cool. I also have a later one, 'Lady' which is much less impressive. While Heaven Wept once covered 'Voice In The Wind', in a lovely version.

Gillan - On The Rocks (last live performance with Bernie Torme)

METALLICA - December 10 2011 30th Anniversary Show (4th and final night with special guests that include Iommi & Ozzy, Dave Mustaine, Bob Rock, Jason Newsted, Hugh Tanner, Ron McGovney, and Lloyd Grant) (aside from Lou Reed coming out to sing a few tunes, if you can call what he does singing, all 4 shows are fantastic and are definitely worth downloading from metallicalive.com)

Every time I read some musician's autobiography (or biography) I get compelled to complete my collection of cds released by said artist. Just finished reading "Fall To Pieces" by Scott Weiland's ex wife Mary ( reviews said it was way better than Scott's book) which was an interesting read about addiction the modeling biz and being married to a addiction singer.

Velvet Revolver - Libertad (I enjoyed the first one for the most part, never picked this one up and got it for under $4 on Amazon including shipping. I enjoy Weiland's voice although some of the songs he's sung on are weak. I have NO intention of buying his Christmas cd)

Reading Ace Frehley's "No Regrets" book now and enjoying it a lot. Not sure what that will end up making me purchase. I was never a fan of frehley's Comet but grew up on KISS like so many of us 40 somethingers.

Frehley is by far my favorite kisser. It did hurt me hè left kiss in THE 80's. I hated bruce kulick and even more thayer although hè nicely took ace fill.
If you are going to complete THE kiss collection i wish you luck, this is à big one indeed.

It surprises me there are still so many kissfans....
I particularly listen to THE old stuff and also the 70's solo albums are favorite wen i need to get away from meshuggah, slayer, morbid angel, tryptikon etc...

I have NO INTENTION on trying to be a KISS collector... that's just fuckin' insane!!! But today I did take Destroyer & The Elder in to work to listen to them, and I took Ace's solo KISS album but didn't have time to spin it, but will tomorrow along with some other early KISS Klassicks.

Today's mail contained:
GILLAN - The Gillan Tapes Volume 2
Scott Weiland - Happy In Golashes
ANIMALS AS LEADERS - Weightless
ANIMALS AS LEADERS - self titled
REDEMPTION - Frozen in the Moment (live in Atlanta) dvd/cd

Picked up at FYE yesterday:
RED FANG - Murder The Mountains (all because Mez posted a link to theat stupid German rap/metal band and there was a Red Fang video on the side. I think it was NIA who originally posted something about this band a long long time ago. Good cd but the videos they've made are just the best and make the songs that much better)

Haha, that's cool. I remember the Garth Rockett & The Moonshiners gig as one of the best concerts I ever witnessed.

Cathedral - Forest of Equilibrium reissue
Destruction - Release from Agony
Helloween - Keeper of the Seven Keys Part I reissue
Cynic - Carbon Based Anatomy

I had forgotten how great that Destruction album was...it's a shame Harry Wilkens parted ways with the band. The newer stuff without him just isn't as good even though I enjoy it. Also, as if you didn't already know it, that Cathedral reissue is a definite must for any doomster!

That Forest Of Equalibrium reissue does look nice. Really been enjoying the Anniversary double live effort as of late here.

Somebody must have decided to unload their Judas Priest remasters recently, becuase the shop by my work had a pile of used copies in stock for $4-$5 each. Walked out with the folling....

- Judas Priest: Sin After Sin [rm]
- Judas Priest: Britsh Steel [rm]
- Judas Priest: Defenders Of The Faith [rm]
- Judas Priest: Turbo [rm]
- Judas Priest: Ram It Down [rm]
... and for good measure
- AC/DC: If You Want Blood [rm]

Now my collection reads "Judas Pri st"! I suppose I need to buy Priest...Live! to get the full effect!

X-D you have to get all of the remastered JP cds or else you can't put them on the shelf and have the spines spell out JUDAS PRIEST and form a picture of the Burning Symbol. Then you'll need to find the anvil case that they get housed in... very cool!!!

SAXON - A Metal Crusade: A Tribute to Saxon (Agent Steel covers heavy Metal Thunder, so I had to have it... the samples from all the other bands on here sounded pretty cool also)

Scorpions - 3 Original Album Classics: In Trance - Virgin Killer - Taken By Force (cardboard slip case with 3 mini lp style sleeves.)

These "Original Album Classic" releases that have been issued for a lot of different bands is a great way to get a bunch of albums from one artist at an amazing price. I paid about $10 for the Scorpions one which was great since I didn't have any of these cds in my collection already.)
