(6 Customer Reviews)
Almost four years after Death Angel's reunion album, THE ART OF DYING, the veteran San Francisco thrash-metal group set out to prove that that record wasn't a one-off fluke with 2008's KILLING SEASON. A vibrant set that recaptures the act's late-'80s fever pitch, the outing finds the band in top-notch form (see the dynamic "Lord of Hate"), with Mark Osegueda's powerful vocals and Rob Cavestany's virtuosic guitar playing still standing out as the ensemble's calling cards.Kerrang (Magazine) (p.48) - "11 tracks of racing drums, scrabbling riffs and howling leads....A whole pile of fun..." Death Angel Killing Season Songs Killing Season Music Review Average Rating: (4.8 out of 5 stars)    List All Reviews WWWAAAYYY better than I expected Death Angel, a band whom I have followed since "Ultra-Violence" first saw the light of day, quickly disappeared after its' most respectable 3rd installment, "Act III". In 2004, they return with the proverbial "comeback album" that put the influential & talented Death Angel back on the map. However, "The Killing Season" is absolutely their best offering to date as it is readily apparent that the band is back for real, and with a bloody vengeance. This is heavier, darker, thicker and more accomplished than I could have ever imagined. Despite the groove-laden descriptor and the fact that Death Angel are a group of virtuosos in their own right, there is a bit of a spirited "punky" feel to this that just elevates the overall rowdiness of the album. Nick R's production job provides the bulldozing heft to the bottom end & guitars and to sum it all up, EVERYTHING about this album works to extreme effect. Killing Season is one of the best metal albums in my rather substantial collection and the team of tracks that Death Angel ominously fielded this time around, drove, pounded and crushed their way to an undefeated season; a killing season for sure that massacres the competition and leaves them in a crumpled, pleading dung heap at center field. This truly is a metal album for credible headbangers. Submitted by The Trooper (Spokane, WA) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
Death Angel never ceases to amaze me! I picked this up at my local record store and I'm very impressed. "Killing Season" is not as great as "Act III" or "Ultra- Violence" but "Killing Season" still kicks some major a##. It's also one of the better releases I've seen this year. What intrigued me was it has a neat fold out poster inside. Though there is no lyric sheet, the record itself is still worth its time. Once you hear the acoustic intro on "Lord Of Hate", you won't put "Killing Season" down for quite some time. Submitted by guitar_i_play (Juneau, AK) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
Best of 2008 Energy, pure Energy. This album will be one of the best metal albums of 2008.Death Angel is back and with a vengeance! This album totally kicks butt with acoustics and harmonies, coupled with ripping and shredding of guitars that is very dynamic and goes a bit deeper that you average metal album. All this fronted by a depth of vocal skill and backed with drumming that is hard to beat. Submitted by rps (San Jose, CA) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No

Killing Season
$13.09 Nine long years since their last studio album of new material (1999's THE GATHERING), Testament returned with a brutally melodic set fittingly titled THE FORMATION OF DAMNATION. Vocalist Chuck Billy's winning battle with cancer inspired most of the group's original lineup to reconvene, with the exception of the ever-changing drum throne occupied here by former Forbidden/Slayer member Paul Bostaph. Lyrically, the Bay Area thrash legends are well-known for tackling social and political fare. For DAMNATION, principal co-writers Billy and guitarist Eric Peterson deliver commentaries on 9/11 ("The Evil Has Landed"), ...

| | Billy Joel Cold Spring Harbor CD (1972) Remastered; Enhanced CD
Killing Season
$6.89 This edition of COLD SPRING HARBOR is an Enhanced CD containing both a full audio program as well as a video clip for the song "Everybody Loves You Now."
Digitally remastered by Ted Jensen (Sterling Sound, New York, New York).
Billy Joel's melodic gifts were very much in evidence on his first album, more so because the rest of his talents still had some catching up to do. COLD SPRING HARBOR contains the lovely devotional ballad "She's Got a Way," which became a hit when a live version was released more than a decade later (on SONGS IN THE ATTIC). It also features a couple of frenetically catchy melodies in "Everybody Loves You Now" and "Falling of the Rain" (whose arpeggiated piano playing would become a Joel trademark).
The words often seem like afterthoughts--something to sing the melodies with--but there sure are a lot of them. "Everybody Loves You Now," about the isolation of fame (did he know something even then?), has more verses than you'd think anyone could fit into two and a half minutes. The original album was mistakenly sped up in the mastering process and was long a source of embarrassment to Joel. It quickly went out of print and remained so until Columbia released a corrected version in 1984, finally giving fans the chance to hear where it all began.
Recorded at Record Plant West, Los Angeles, California & at Ultrasonic Studios, Hempstead, New York.

In 1979, Ted Nugent was still flying high on the success of such hit albums as CAT SCRATCH FEVER and DOUBLE LIVE GONZO, and was one of hard rock's top concert attractions. Not issued until 1997, LIVE AT HAMMERSMITH '79 captures the Nuge at his live peak, rocking a British audience like there was no tomorrow.
Even though original singer/guitarist Derek St. Holmes had split from the Nuge by this point, LIVE is just ...
