After a few albums that veered into a more traditional death metal style and a long absence from the scene, Abscess return to their cheerfully revolting roots with Horrorhammer. One assumes that the title is an inversion of "Hammer horror," the campy British B-movies of the '60s and '70s that are a logical inspiration for the band's deliberately icky Grand Guignol lyrics. Those are here in full force throughout, as is the band's trademark mix of hardcore punk, death metal, and occasional flashes of glammy '70s-style hard rock in an Alice Cooper style. Fans of early albums like Urine Junkies and Seminal Vampires and Maggot Men will find much to enjoy in songs like the surprisingly catchy "Drink the Filth" and the hardcore-brief "Another Private Hell." Horrorhammer won't change the mind of anyone thus far unconvinced, however. ~ Stewart Mason

| Electric Wizard Come My Fanatics... CD (1996) Bonus Tracks; Remastered; Digipak
Horrorhammer music CDs
$13.25  
Upon its release, Electric Wizard's excellent debut carved a Titanic-sized swathe through the heavy metal landscape, burying much that had come before under an avalanche of amp distortion, detuned riffs, and billows of marijuana smoke. And yet, impossible as it may seem, the band's absolutely colossal second effort, Come My Fanatics..., while somewhat less immediate than its predecessor, somehow upped the sonic ante through a wall of sludge so thick that even the most experienced of metal heads couldn't help but be overwhelmed by its power. Opening number "Return Trip" is quite simply a heavy metal landmark, from its sudden, feedback-induced (and bowel-releasing) opening chord to the anguished screams of main man Jus Oborn through to its final coughing denouement ten minutes later. The barely discernible lyrics to second track "Wizard in Black" (another monster at eight minutes) gradually emerge from the trio's cyclopean grind, intoning "I am a God...I am the One" -- and by gum if by now you're not ready to believe just that! Ensuing acid-metal behemoths like "Doom-Mantia" and "Son of Nothing" (the album's shortest track at almost seven minutes) will test the patience of uninitiated listeners before drifting into focus through billowing clouds of smoke, ...
| | Immolation Shadows In The Light CD (2007) Enhanced CD
Horrorhammer songs
$13.09 
After issuing one of the most inspired and texturally varied records of their career in 2005's Harnessing Ruin, New York death metal veterans Immolation seemingly had one overriding goal in mind for its successor, 2007's Shadows in the Light: furious, rampant brutality. Which, in the hands of less capable acts (and even some as mighty as Krisiun or Incantation) might have equated with dull uniformity -- but not Immolation, whose talent for layering distinctive ingredients into even the harshest, most viscous extreme metal barrage is almost without peer, and precisely the key to their ongoing legend. That's not to say that it won't still take numerous listens for all but very experienced death metal fans to discern many of the elements fighting for attention on ultra-complex ...

This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.
Of all the pitstops made by the nomadically creative Dylan, none was more unusual than his brief conversion to Christianity in the late '70s. SLOW TRAIN COMING was the first of two records (SAVED being the other) that found Zimmerman exploring his newfound faith. Recorded at Memphis' famed Muscle Shoals Studios and produced by soul vets Jerry Wexler and Barry Beckett, SLOW TRAIN's supporting cast includes Dire Straits' Mark Knopfler on guitar and Pick Withers on drums, along with a handful of studio musicians.
Knopfler's crisp guitar playing is surrounded by a punchy horn section and a phalanx of female background singers who are a perfect compliment to Dylan's revitalized vocals. Songs such as "When He Returns" and "Gonna Change My Way Of Thinking" reverberate with the conviction of Dylan's new faith whereas "When You Gonna Wake Up" simultaneously celebrates America's greatness as a country and warns of the need to seek a new set of values. Dylan eventually won a Best Rock Vocal Grammy for "Gotta Serve ...

Reviews of "CONTEMPLATION":"Subtle, sensitive piano in a gentle jazz or freeform new age vein. Comparisons to Keith Jarrett's more mellow moments would not be out of place. Gorgeously recorded, too--this one is going straight into my short stack of late-night relaxation CDs." --Jim Aikin, KEYBOARD Magazine"...a sort of piano feng shui in which glassy, amorphous tone poems probe shadowy themes with astute harmony, counterpoint, and balance." --San Diego ReaderOriginally from California, ...
