Casual metalheads will listen to Helloween and say, "They sound kinda like Iron Maiden." The fact of the matter is that Maiden sounds like Helloween. This 2001 set features the bonus tracks "Still I Don't Know" and "Take It To The Limit," as well as "We Burn," "Street Tormentor," "Power," and the burning title cut.
Despite the difficulties that had plagued them in recent years (including inconsistent albums, constant lineup changes, and even the suicide of founding drummer Ingo Schwichtenberg), German power metal kings Helloween had been gradually finding their way back to the glory of their early days with each succeeding release. And with their seventh album, 1996's The Time of the Oath, they pretty much arrived, delivering their best collection of songs in almost a decade and never straying from their patented Euro-metal formula. Come on, Helloween pretty much invented this stuff, and the hundreds of disciples they inspired into existence simply couldn't be wrong -- this was still an important band. The Time of the Oath adds nearly nothing new to the group's well-established sound (quasi-thrash riffing, harmony guitars, piercing chorused vocals), yet -- for the first time in years -- they manage to steer clear of the pop-metal pitfalls, corny lyrics, and forced comedy that had sunk them in the first place. Melodic moshers like "We Burn," "Steel Tormentor," and the title track lead the way, but even occasional digressions into epic songwriting ("Mission Motherland") and power balladry ("Power") are much more effective than in recent efforts. Arguably the finest moment of the band's latter-day career, The Time of the Oath also offers a fond welcome back for old-school fans who had given up on Helloween. [Time of the Oath was reissued in 2006 in an expanded edition that included bonus tracks.] ~ Eduardo Rivadavia

Produced by Roy Z (Rob Halford, Bruce Dickenson), this 2000 recording from the prolific metalist finds them once again paying unconscious, yet successful homage to Iron Maiden. Features 13 tunes, including the bonus track "Madness Of The Crowds."
One of the most appropriate album titles in metal history, Helloween's 10th full-length release is exactly what it says. The German quintet's first album for Nuclear Blast sees the band break from its traditional pomp-and-romp power metal leanings and experiment with a more dramatic (and less humorous) songwriting approach. Produced and engineered by melodic metal masterminds Roy Z. (Halford, Bruce Dickinson) and Charlie Bauerfeind (Blind Guardian, HammerFall), ...
| | Judas Priest Hell Bent For Leather CD (1979)
Time Of The Oath CD music
$6.25
The British version of this release is titled KILLING MACHINE.
Principally recorded at Utopia, Basing Street and CBS Studios, London, England in 1978. Includes liner notes by Judas Priest.
Judas Priest's 1979 release, HELL BENT FOR LEATHER (titled KILLING MACHINE in Europe), continued the band's late '70s winning streak, which included such metal classics as SAD WINGS OF DESTINY, SIN AFTER SIN, and STAINED CLASS. Such deliciously heavy tracks as "Delivering the Goods," the title track, the U.K. hit single "Take On the World," and a cover of Fleetwood Mac's "The Green Manalishi (With the Two Pronged Crown)," showed that nobody could touch singer Rob Halford and company when it came to power metal. Landing a spot as the opening act on Kiss' U.S. tour ...
| | Ry Cooder Jazz CD (1978)
Time Of The Oath music CDs
$10.89
Beginning with his self-titled debut in 1970, Ry Cooder's records seemed to be as much history lesson as they were entertainment. Not because Cooder was trying to club you over the head with this stuff; he simply gravitated to great songs, no matter what the era or genre. Released in 1978, Jazz seems to be his first conscious attempt at a concept album, in the historical sense. Here he pays homage to some of the early tunes and masters of jazz, ranging from the late 1800s through the "coon songs" of the early part of the next century, to the ragtime and "Spanish" music of Jelly Roll Morton, and the sophistication of cornetist Bix Beiderbecke. The only living artist (at the time of release) who's represented here is the great Bahamian guitarist Joseph Spence, who recorded from the '50s through the '80s, and whose syncopated style was extremely influential in Cooder's own development as a guitarist. Spence's sacred songs are presented ...

Brought to life in April of 1998, the incarnation of A Gruesome Find began with founding member and lead guitarist Lord Mininger(ex-Carrion), who possessed the single desire to create extremely heavy, yet melodic metal accompanied with vivid atmosphere. Having played in several death metal bands, he was tired of the monotony in the local scene and was striving for something more worthwhile. Music was written and many shows were played to support the effort, but after a few lineup changes, Lord Mininger found himself at square one again. In September 2001, with the addition of drummer Deathcrush and bassist Isaac Cain, the group found themselves with a renewed focus and quickly compiled enough material to enter the studio in February 2002. The five-song EP, Ravens of the Full Moon Eclipse was recorded at Dimmworks Studios in Akron, Ohio. After extensive promotion, the new EP was well received by metal fans and embraced as a concrete achievement for the band. The band experienced a brief interruption in the Spring of 2002 which left them in need of a new vocalist. Without missing a beat, ex-Reflections of Death front-man, Naberius, stepped in to fill the ranks. The band was playing shows again within three weeks of his arrival. His amazing gutteral vocal style and lyrical tyranny was a substantial addition to the group. A Gruesome Find continued writing new material at a feverish pace and once again, entered Dimmworks Studios in November 2002 to record their first full-length CD, The Fire that Burns in Hell, released in August of 2003. Distributed all over the world, the album found a favorable following in South America and Europe. The band saw an international debut release on Crash Music in 2005 for their second full-length release Minions Engage, recorded at Dimmworks Studios over the course of several months in 2004-2005. With minimal label support, the band found themselves promoting the CD out of their own pockets once again. The ordeal caused some turbulence within the band’s ranks, producing high tensions and unneeded negativity. With the morale at an all time low, longtime drummer and bass player decided to leave the musical project. Approximately nine months later, after a sullen hiatus, Lord Mininger charged ahead and initiated a new lineup featuring ex-Forever Lost drummer Lord Cessna and Genocya bassist Lord Albrecht. The newly revised quartet began rehearsal during the winter months and entered the walls of Dimmworks Studios in June of 2007. Six months to the day from entering the studio, Of Blood and Nobility was at last released upon the masses. Of Blood and Nobility continues in the great A Gruesome Find tradition of thick riffs, pounding drums, grim-throated vocals and thunderous bass. Clad in a ...
