Helloween

Here it is. The new release from German legends Helloween. Gambling With The Devil is, in my opinion, a gem in Helloween's discography. Definitely their best since The Dark Ride. Notably, there are some more speed metal elements than their last few albums with the riffing almost resembling Walls of Jericho. Hell, The Bells Of The 7 Hells almost sounds like an Overkill track.

Queensryche

Beware of night for we all know he's loose again
Behind him lies the eyes of mercy and despair
Forever living out his nightmare comes to life
From Hell this spell will find it's way to you... tonight!













Artist: Queensryche
Albums: Queensryche, The Warning, Rage for Order, Operation Mindcrime, Empire, Promised Land, Hear in the Now Frontier, Operation Mindcrime II
Genre: Progressive Metal
Official Site: http://www.queensryche.com/home.html

Queensryche are the founders and pioneers of the Progressive Metal genre. Formed originally as The Mob in 1981, the group changed the band name to Queensryche, named after their song Queen of the Reich from their debut EP. Goeff Tate's piercing high vocals are some of the best around, and the guitarwork is absolutely fantastic, with guitarists Michael Wilton and Chris DeGarmo busting out incredible solos and riffs that grab your attention. The group has survived throughout the ages with hardly a scratch on them, maintaining the original line-up through most of their discography (founder Chris DeGarmo left the band shortly after their Hear in the Now Frontier album.) Queensryche still rocks out today, and with the release Operation Mindcrime II, the group is seeing a lot of publicity thanks to the answers supplied by the album to the questions left unanswered by Operation Mindcrime. The band has a cover album, Take Cover, set for release November 13th, 2007.

Skinless

And now something a bit different. Is this the first death metal album on the Stormblog?

Skinless are a brutal death metal band from New York. They released this album, the genteelly named Trample The Weak, Hurdle The Dead, just last year. Expect a head-kicking, intestine-eating brutal experience.

The highlight of the album? The cover of Wicked World, from Black Sabbath's first album. Awesome.

Overkill

I wouldn't change the way, I wouldn't stop the decay

Legendary thrash metal is legendary. Arguably one of the originators of the genre, Overkill are possibly the finest example of American thrash metal. You may have heard rave about them on the Stormcast. (Or not, as of this moment that one hasn't been released).

The Years Of Decay was recorded in 1989 and is considered one of their best releases. Some very tight guitar and drum work combine with some unique vocals to make for an excellent, neckbreaking thrash metal album.

Download it. It's one of the tastiest slices of thrash I've ever listened to.

I'm not sure how well the tracks are labelled, but if there are any problems I can have a look later.
