    RE:SOFT METAL
       
    I've got it on master tape (for my "car" and on album - I was given
    both).  Its good.  Nice easy listening for those Sunday mornings.
                           
       
    BTW, Moshduck, when can I borrow your S.O.D. album ????
    
    -Tony

    Yo P�rky,
             I have just taped it and i like it too. Excellent to listen
    late at night on a long drive home when you are loking forward to
    a nice warm Duvet. Like the Saxon track, never really heard much
    by them before, i'll have to investigate which album it is off of
    and race out and nab a copy of it.
    
    Prince OF The Dawn.

    I'll give ya all a review when I find enough time in my busy social
    life to actally listen to the B@#tard.
    
    See ya - P.
    

    
    
    	There's a tape that I'll be picking up soon called
    	"Metal Masters"...
    
    	There's some Kiss, and Judas Priest, and Vinnie Vincent,
    	Bon Jovi, ...and more.
    
    	It's got some of the more popular songs by this band on
    	it and it's pretty good, I think.

    Hi there Metal Lovers,
    
    Has anyone bought or heard the album Protect the Innocent ???
    
                It's an excellent compilation of heavy metal/rock
    from the beginning.
    
    It has some great tracks such as:
    
                  Stepenwolf ....  Born to be wild
                  Sabbath    ...   Paranoid
           Zodiac Mindwarp   ....  Back seat Education
                  Anthrax    ....  Metal Thrashing Mad
    
    and another 26 tracks to boot..
    
                        There's a few iffy tracks but well worth 9 quid
    
                                               Rapunzel .........
           

    
    Yup - I got it.  theres a video tape out too.
    
    Cheers,
    -Tony (another Brit)

        Just got two more tapes  last night.  .  .not half bad either
        if you ask me, but I know.  .  .you didn't ask.  :^)

    	Rhino has a 3-CD series out called "Youth Gone Wild", which
    	contains a bunch of 80's metal songs from the expected groups,
    	and some stuff thrown in from unexpected groups.
    
    	I already tossed the catalog, so I can't post the excerpts
    	[a partial list from each].
    
    	It is a series, so you can buy them individually if you want.
    	I probably have most of the songs already, but I might pick
    	them up to have them all together instead of on 25+ CD's.
    

    
    Someone already posted in one of the other notes but I figured I'd
    include it here with my reply on compilations.
    
    I've been looking for a good DOOM compilation cd and so far haven't
    found one/title yet. Anyone know of one lemme know!
    
    I did get one called Identity II, 18 tracks, heavy/thrash/punk stuff on
    it. That is where I heard Merauder, Moonspell, and others. Of the 18
    tracks I can say I like at least 13-14 of them. I didn't care for the
    punk or rappy songs (2, different bands, stuck mojo and one other)....
    They did include a Nevermore song on it, along with Samael, The
    Gathering (great female singer now in band, very good voice)...and
    other bands. Hey, $2.99, can't complain on that price!
    
    The other one I got on someones recommendation to get a taste of DEATH
    metal and some doomy stuff was "Death is only the beginning...III". It
    has some REALLY BRUTAL stuff on it! For the faint of heart, pass on it!
    I listen to some heavy stuff occasionally, but some of this is WAAAAAAY
    off my taste in music! I haven't finished listening to it all yet...had
    to take a break!
    
    Lemme see, Therion is on there (remix of tune off the cd I have), along
    with I think Dissection, and other brutal bands!
    
    

    
    Got a new one that is pretty good if you like some heavy/death metal
    stuff (and a little Black Metal in there). Song titles/Bands follow
    with some opinions on the band:
    
    Song		Band			Comment(s)
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Moonshield		In Flames		Not too bad, gruff vocals
    To Mega Therion	Therion			Theatrical sounding
    Copy-Cat		Lacrimosa		Heavy german dude/strange
    Tears of Time	Crematory		Heavy gruff vocals
    My Kantele		Amorphis		Good song, new singer
    Nepenthe		Sentenced		Good tune, gruff
    Symbol of Disgrace	Pyogenesis		Dual vocals, light/death!
    Shed your skin	Love like Blood		Good tune!
    Whatever that hurts	Tiamat			Heavy duty, light/gruff
    Request Denied	Hypocrisy		Heavy tune, light/gruff vocals
    A hamlet/vassal	Theatre of Tragedy	Theatrical kinda, gruff voc.
    Seasons of Black	End of Green            Decent heavy tune here
    Burden		Mindrot			These guys are rough!
    Die Liebe		Atrocity/Das Ich	rough german stuff
    Acme		Sirrah			New young band, death voc.
    Nocturnal Suprem.	Cradle of Filth		Black Metal, don't like it
    Feather's Fell	Dissection		hmm, not too bad
    
    I've heard Mindrot on Death...is only the beginning, along with I think
    Dissection, and Mindrot was rather brutal, along with Dissection, but
    this last tune is VERY short, like under 1 minute.
    
    I don't care for Sirrah, Cradle of Filth, Lacrimosa (don't really hate
    it, just a different type of tune than what I expected throughout this
    disc), Dissection (from what I've heard so far). I do like Pyogenesis,
    Hypocrisy, End of Green since the former two have the dual vocalist
    effects with one lighter singer then the Death/Gruff singer kicks in. I
    like that type of effect from the bands as to me it lends more
    heaviness to the tune overall!!!!!!!!! Hypocrisy though is cool with
    this tune! Plus there is some classical sounding guitar and keys near
    the end of the tune along with the distorted guitar. Overall good
    effect here! Pyogenesis comes across with keys and a light sound at
    first with the singer basically talking till the band kicks in, then
    the Death/Gruff singer kicks in with "Symbol...of Disgrace" part of the
    song! Excellent mix for this style of music!  If you like heavy stuff I
    would recommend this, if you are faint of heart and can't handle the
    gruff/death vocal stuff, don't do it! I think it is an overall good
    mix, but I would have substituted some of the bands/songs that I don't
    particularly care for!
    
    	

    <-----i like that term "light death"

    
    re: .63
    
    Actually it was light/death, meaning tenor type female singer or mail
    singing in a light tone, then the death/gruff/gravelly singer kicking
    in or doing psuedo duet-type singing. I like that style more than just
    the death/gruff/gravelly for the entire song/disc. But there are
    exceptions to that rule too! Depends on the band/music style that is
    doing it.
    
    

    My Mail Never Sung to me...  yet.
    
    
     Crazy_But_Those_Bills_Say_"Pay_Me_Pay_Me"_Al

    
    Picked up the Peaceville compilation disk which has tunes from
    Anathema, My Dying Bride, Autopsy, Pitch Shifter, Morta Skuld, The
    Blood Divine, and some others. Some good tunes, some are more rawer and
    deathish (autopsy, pitch shifter, morta skuld) while the Anathema, MDB,
    and The Blood Divine are quite good with clean vocals (doomdeath style
    metal I guess you can call it). I have been trying to get TBD disk but
    it's not shown in Newbury Comics (web page or computer listing) so I
    might have to order it direct from Peaceville. A decent mix of bands
    and music on it. If you are into the heavier/darker stuff I would
    receommend it, if you are thinking about getting some of this type of
    music I would also recommend it, especially over Death is just the
    beginning....I/II/III/IV disc sets since they are much heavier/darker
    and would probably turn most potential listeners off dependant on
    musical tastes and what you can stand!
    
    

    
    Here's the tracks on the Peaceville Compilation "Under the sign of the
    Sacred Star"
    
    Intro - The Blood Divine "Sacred, Unspoken, Unending
    1) The Blood Divine	- Aureole             	 - excellent
    2) My Dying Bride	- From Darkest Skies  	 - excellent
    3) Anathema		- A Dying Wish	      	 - Excellent
    4) Dominion		- Joyful Tears of Sorrow - good
    5) Paradise Lost	- Eternal		 - earlier PL
    6) Pentagram	- Be Forewarned		 - not too bad
    7) Autopsy		- Critical Madness	 - decent
    8) Vital Remains	- Countess Bathory	 - not too bad
    9) Morta Skuld	- For All Eternity	 - somewhat brutal
    10) At The Gates	- The Swarm		 - cool tune! ;-)
    11) Pitch Shifter	- Catharsis		 - brutal tune, okay!
    Outro - The Blood Divine - An Empyrean Tribute (haven't heard it yet)
    
    All in all, a damn fine compilation! Mostly heavy, Pentagram sounds
    very familiar, but also sound a little dated to the rest of stuff other
    than Paradise Lost's Eternity which sounds from their Lost
    Paradise/Gothic era. MDB and Anathema are some cool doomy tunes which
    sound good cranked!  Dominion is a new band, they aren't too shabby, 3
    different vocalists, normal male, deathish male (low end) and decent
    sounding female (it sounds like a woman ok?). Autopsy has normal
    heavier vocals. Vital Remains is a thrashier sounding band, I was
    expecting much more brutal vocals after reading/hearing about them from
    Dle, but pretty good none-the-less. Morta Skuld are more brutal and
    thrashy in the vocal department. At the Gates song is cool, a heavy
    tune for sure, Sorin would like it! Pitch Shifter are definitely heavy
    stuff along with MS. Now, The Blood Divine (if I read it right) has the
    former singer from The Gathering I think, but their music is along the
    lines of the newest MDB and Anathema stuff, and sounds quite good! 
    
    For those who want to check out some newer music on the heavier side I
    would give this one two thumbs up, or two head-bangs! ;-)
    
    

    Re. Mike
    
    I had also the compilation and my preferences were close to yours.
    The Blood Divine is a band made by people who left Anathema (the singer
    mainly) and Craddle of Filth. It's gothic metal oriented and their
    first CD was very well received. I'll check for them as I like
    "Aureole" the most from compilation.

    re: -1
    
    What happened with MDB and Anathema, their sound is getting quite
    similar. I do like the new MDB - Like gods in the sun, similar to
    Eternity by Anathema (whom I also want to get more of!).
    
    TBD is going to be difficult to locate here...I sent mail asking for a
    catalog from Peaceville whom I will order it from along with Dominion
    and one or two others (Autopsy probably and other Anathema or MDB's
    Angel and the Dark River).

    New one picked up last night (I *think* slab-man has this) by Century
    Media, Identity 3...D!
    
    Band			Song		thoughts
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------
    Stuck Mojo		 Mental Melt Down	interesting, heavy
    Sentenced		 Warrior of Life	off of Down, new singer
    Strapping Young Lad  Detox			I'm not into this kid
    Moonspell		 Opium			cool gothic metal
    Nevermore		 the 7 tounges of god   off politics of ecstasy
    Samael		 Rain			off of passage
    My Own Victim	 Walls apart		gritty
    Morgoth		 Last Laugh		interesting
    Arcturus		 Du Nordavind		interesting
    Iced Earth		 I died for you		Dark Saga, excellent!
    Rotting Christ	 Archon			Triarchy, interesting
    Turmoil		 New Media		thrashy
    Eyehategod		 Dixie Whiskey		louisiana sludgecore
    Chum		 Kindling Kind		interesting
    Merauder		 Time Ends		GOOD tune!
    The Gathering	 Adrenaline		off of single/ep
    Grave		 Restrained		I like these guys! ;-)
    Trouble		 The Eye		Plastic Green Head
    
    Trouble is cool, been around for awhile, I'll have to look for their
    stuff sometime later. Merauder are supposed to have a new one out late
    summer, as well as The Gathering. Grave has some heavy death style
    stuff, some catchy tunes (from what I've heard of them). This is a
    great $3.99 investment to give you some exposure to some of the other
    bands myself, Carlos Menendez and some others listen to. Identity I and
    II are $2-3.00 each also, and you might find them in the compilation
    section of Newbury Comics and manybe Tower. I don't know what
    Strawberries carries for compilations.
    
    

    
    	Yup, I have it.  Most is too heavy for me.
