Fantastic!
Death and Progress is the fourth studio album released by the British heavy metal band Diamond Head in 1993, through Castle Music Ltd.
This was Diamond Head's first album since Canterbury, released 10 years earlier. It was co-produced, engineered and mixed by Andrew Scarth, who had previously worked for bands such as Bad Company and Foreigner. The album had a much cleaner and more polished sound than their previous three albums and featured two special guests, Tony Iommi, of Black Sabbath, and Dave Mustaine, of Megadeth, the latter also enlisting the help of his own producer Max Norman.

Five stars, buy it!
Dusk… and Her Embrace shows how the melding of many musical styles can be done right. It is a masterpiece in the extreme metal genre, and continues to represent the pinnacle of 90’s metal craftsmanship for me. If you see this album, don’t be discouraged by Cradle of Filth’s dip in quality and pick it up; the band may be in an unfortunate situation today, but at least they made a record that truly stands the test of time and gives us something to cherish and remember their “good ol’ days” for.

True Metal for real
Despite having been away for six years, Jag Panzer still displays their signature trademarks on The Deviant Chord. There’s a lot more shredding in the solos and lead guitar thanks to Joey Tafolla making his first appearance with the band since 1997’s The Fourth Judgement, but the songs continue to be driven by soaring vocals, pounding double bass drums, melodic guitar and bass work, and a striking balance between neo-classical theatrics and good old fashioned American balls.

Striking right between the eyes!
Cruelty and the beast is the most seminal album of the Cradle of Filth. A cohesive band and large lyrics await the listener for this album which completes twenty-one years of release. Mandatory!

Awesome!
If you love old school metal bands such as Candlemass, Mercyful Fate and Black Sabbath then this is definitely for you, and their unique spin on this style will intrigue and excite all listeners with their brand new take on an old style. It really does have an epic feel to it, and is one of the best Traditional Metal releases of recent years and highly recommended.

Simply the best festival in the world!!!
If you want a glimpse of the emotion to be in Wacken Open Air, this edition (2016) can tell you why WOA is the best heavy metal festival in the world. Highlights: Saxon and Arch Enemy. You need it.

Running Wild in the best performance!
Death Or Glory is an essential release that every classic metal fan should look for and if you are a fan of the Hamburgs heavy/speed/power metal scene, then this is the ideal record for you. Running Wild is one of the most underrated metal bands of all time and Death Or Glory prove that this band has nothing to be jealous of other great metal acts of the 80s metal scene. In conclusion, Death Or Glory is the pinnacle of fantasy and rebellion. Now sit back and imagine a world, where fantasy, happiness, naivety and optimism have taken the place of misery and suffering. This is what this record and power metal represent in general.
