Since Welcome to Hell and Black Metal were expanded, remastered, and reissued in 2002, it stands to reason that the last great Venom album, 1997's Cast in Stone, would get the same treatment. While Cast in Stone's virtues can be argued among the faithful endlessly -- since, after all, it was a reunion album by the original trio 15 years after the fact -- it blows away Possessed and 2000s horrible Resurrection. Castle/Sanctuary have released the expanded version of Cast in Stone in a double-disc package that celebrates what made the three crazies in Venom who they were as a band, but with better production. There's the stomp and thrash of "Flight of the Hydra," the bone splintering heaviness of "Bleeding," (that does sound as if Venom also listened to a lot of Slayer and early Metallica). The guitar spew in "Raised in Hell" and the chanted refrain and Cronos' screaming makes the latter one of the greatest songs the band ever recorded. The Deep Purple-meets-Manowar riff in "God's Forsaken" kicks ass as well. This set also features a bonus platter with the band's classics re-recorded in better sound -- totally unnecessary -- as well as a handful of rarities to boot: the 1996 Dynamo Festival mini-album that contained live reunion readings of "7 Gates of Hell," "Welcome to Hell," "In Nomine Satanas," "Black Metal," and "The Evil One." Whether the bonus disc is of use or not is highly debatable, but Cast in Stone in remastered sound is a worthy addition to the Venom shelf. The liner notes with a history of reunion and demise via an in-depth interview with the egomaniacal Cronos by Malcolm Dome is a great read, too. ~ Thom Jurek

| | Christian Death Only Theatre Of Pain CD (1982)
Cast In Stone CD music
 $9.69  
The 1984 debut album from goth metal mongers Christian Death can, in retrospect, be seen as something of a landmark release. A trendsetting disc in its merging of a creepy gothic sensibility and heavy metal, not to mention its stridently controversial (yet subtly tongue-in-cheek) assaults on the Christian religion and conventional morality, ONLY THEATER OF PAIN influenced the countless goth, death, and black metal bands that heard it.
While lyrics about Lucifer, sodomy, necrophilia, and church hypocrisy (like "Burnt Offerings" and "Cavity: First Communion") may seem commonplace now, they weren't in 1984. But it's the gloom-and-doom atmosphere here, the ...

| | Tales From The Crypt - The Complete Third Season DVDs (1991)
Cast In Stone album
$32.69
Television executives plugged into viewers' deepest fears with the debut of TALES FROM THE CRYPT in 1989. Its original source material was the EC comic-book; the series originated on HBO and would go on to run for seven seasons. Hosted by the skeletal Crypt Keeper himself, each episode of the show offered a new, ghoulish tale to inspire nightmares in its audience. The show was such a success that a myriad of CRYPT-inspired spin-offs resulted, including an animated series, several feature films, and seemingly infinite merchandising opportunities. A popular favorite among horror film fans, TALES FROM THE CRYPT also appeals to anyone who loves the strange and visceral thrill of being scared. The show's entire third season is included here.
Yes, that die-abolical punster and bone-a-fide ghoul of your dreams the Crypt Keeper is back to host this scare-rific collection of all 14 complete and uncut episodes from Season 3 of the series that ran seven memorably spooktacular seasons. Among the tales spilling out of the vault are Loved to Death, with Mariel Hemingway as a woman zapped by a love potion; Top Billing, starring Jon Lovitz as a struggling ...
| | Darkthrone Cult Is Alive CD (2006) (Import) England; Limited Edition; Enhanced CD
Cast In Stone CD music
$23.29
At a time when most of the first wave of Norwegian black metal bands are long gone, Darkthrone has become the senior figures of this particular subgenre almost by default; they're like the Rolling Stones of death metal. And much like the Rolling Stones around the time of Some Girls and Emotional Rescue, Darkthrone now seems to be caught between staying true to their original sound and adapting to the commercial marketplace. The album's first single, "Too Old, Too Cold" is easily the most immediately accessible song the band has ever done, sounding more like American hardcore punks the Misfits than anyone else, and elsewhere "Graveyard Slut" and "Whiskey Funeral" add to the album's punky feel. Longtime fans might grouse about the somewhat diluted sound of the album, but the shift in emphasis is both subtle and effective. Rather than simply going through the black metal motions, The Cult Is Alive is one of Darkthrone's most satisfying recent albums. ~ Stewart Mason
Never failing to keep the creative wheels turning, Norwegian black metal band Darkthrone are back with their 12th album, The Cult Is Alive. Though they've became known as one of the most notorious and influential black metal bands to appear in the Norwegian black metal scene, they have now begun to make larger ...

| | Gurus CD (2004)
Cast In Stone album
$12.89
Within just the first few tracks, the Gurus -- singing entirely in English, despite their Barcelona origins -- leave no doubt that they're skilled appropriators of influences from major '60s icons. "Big Sea" has a guitar sound reminiscent of the kind of wobbling distortion Pete Townshend made on early Who songs like "The Good's Gone"; "Kamala, Pt. 2" and "Silver Rain" are very much in the school of '60s Byrds ringing guitar and harmonies; "Let's Have a Change" has the quirky bounce of the mildly psychedelicized pop of the Kinks and the Easybeats; and "My Beautiful Home" is Paul McCartney-esque, with shades of early-'70s mellow California rock vocal harmonies. It's well done, and the palette has more colors than many such bands employ, but it's only okay. The songs are derivative -- which, given how many records of this kind have appeared, might be considered a strong recommendation by the niche audience who follows these kind of bands -- and, more importantly, not memorably strong, despite some catchy hooks in tunes like "Purple Blue," where the Merseybeat influence is prominent, and "Sleeping Girl," which is reminiscent ...
