| | Napalm Death Leaders Not Followers: PT. 2 CD Napalm Death Discography of CDs
In 1999, British grindcore legends Napalm Death decided to take a break from their regularly demanding touring and recording regimen to pay tribute to some of their favorite bands. The resulting six-track EP, Leaders Not Followers, was a smashing success with their fans, and also afforded Napalm a unique opportunity to have a little fun for once -- stepping outside the undoubtedly draining parameters of a hate-fueled career. So it was hardly surprising when the band decided to not only repeat the dose, but triple it five years later with the 19-track Leaders Not Followers, Pt. 2. Once again, the group digs deep into a wide array of influential metallic subgenres (ranging from hardcore, to death, to thrash, to doom, and beyond) to name check both established and obscure acts (from Sepultura to Wehrmacht, from Agnostic Front to the Dayglo Abortions) on their way to uncorking an unusually entertaining and educational covers record. As such, highlights include a brotherly take on Cryptic Slaughter's "Lowlife," a loving remake of Hellhammer's "Messiah," a fun-filled romp through Kreator's "Riot of Violence," and a pulverizing, 30-second spanking of Hirax's "Hate, Fear and Power." And, in a heartwarming display of friendship and loyalty within the extended Napalm Death family, even original bassist Jim Whitely is coaxed out of retirement to help play Discharge's "War's No Fairytale." In the end, Leaders Not Followers, Pt. 2 -- much more than just a treat for Napalm Death fans -- is clearly (and tough-guy metal heads will bristle at such a pansy-ass description before admitting its adequate) a labor of love. And hey, enjoy it while it lasts. Next time you hear from Napalm Death they'll probably be splattering your brain all over the sidewalk again. ~ Eduardo Rivadavia

$13.39 Had you dared to suggest back in the late '80s that Napalm Death -- not one of their supposedly more stable peers -- would be the ones to survive through thick and thin and become elder statesmen of extreme metal, you might have been laughed right out of the meat market. But here they are, still thriving decades on from grindcore's violent birth and 11 (that's 11!) studio albums into their career, despite continued challenges like the long-mooted, now seemingly official, departure of long-serving guitarist Jesse Pintado after a decade of work alongside mainstay Mitch Harris. Of course with this ...

Leaders Not Followers: PT. 2 album
$12.89 Digitally remastered by Gene Rosenthal, L. Packer (Uncle Punchy Studios).
Unless, like the Holy Modal Rounders, you've spent a lot of time listening to Harry Smith's Anthology of American Folk Music while ingesting recreational drugs, their music might sound a bit odd to you. Actually, given the ramshackle performances, it sounds a bit odd in any case, but as with any humorously intended work, appreciation of it depends on one's sympathy with the artists. For initiates, this seventh (and, so it seemed at the time of its release, final) album was one of the Rounders' better ones, with Peter Stampfel, Chris Weber, and especially Robin Remaily turning out characteristic new work and covers of old songs like "Euphoria" and "If You Want to Be a Bird" backed by a rhythm section. "August, 1967 (Hippies Call It STP)," borrows its ...

Nonetheless, Tesla still had a loyal fan base, and its followers ...
