Metallica, S&M. The BEST album i have ever listened to.

Advantages: This album offers something to everyone, with great musical talent and support from the orchestra.
Disadvantages: I can not think of anything negative about this

In my opinion this is the best that i have EVER listened to. I personally am not really a huge fan of the 'metal' genre of music but i think that this album is just outstanding. Deciding to combine their raw and meaty guitar riffs and drums with the stunning vocals with an orchestra was a fantastic move. This album, in my opinion, is a must for the hardened Metallica and Metal fan but also for those who appreciate good music, something you can rock ...
...the background. I have found the beauty of this album, i can listen to it full blast with headphones on, or have it playing quietly in the background and it suits all moods and situations. The selection of songs on this album also caters for everyone, giving you some more chilled out relaxing songs, and some of their more hardcore songs.The orchestra brings so much to the songs, so even offers you something if you already own all the other Metallica ...

Review of S&M - Metallica

The Real Portrayal of Bullet for my valentine, - The Poison

Advantages: Better than other content
Disadvantages: not many people listen to the older stuff. because they only listen to the song off guitar hero

In my opinion The Poison has outdone Bullet for my Valentines newest album by far, scream aim fire was a bad release and the style has changed completely. The poison has some great songs and they all have great solos vocals instrumentals, and well everything. i highly recommend if you like the newest album to buy the older one, its has a much better range of songs and all of the songs stick to a great independent genre only portrayed by Bullet for ...
...great and very original. its popular for 1 reason, quality. unlike the new album which was made famous by guitar hero, scream aim fire has ruined what i think of bullet for my valentine today and this album is the one that made them great. I highly recommend this album to all the people that have only listened to scream aim fire, its 100's of times better than scream aim fire. ...

Review of Poison, The [ECD] - Bullet For My Valentine

I can't believe I'm the first

Advantages: Iconic, pioneering, and just plain good
Disadvantages: Drum solo

...powerful sound. 2. Paranoid - do I have to tell you? I suppose they picked this one to release as a single as it's the right length and the most 'poppy'. 3. Planet Caravan - slow, wistful, melancholic, eerie, haunting, spacey, ethereal, poetic. A polished, shivers-down-the-spine track featuring understated jazzy guitar, proving that they can turn the volume down and still produce something distinctive and good. 4. Iron Man - grungy, daft, sci-fi ...
...by teenage boys of all ages. 5. Electric Funeral - Starts as pure grunge, speeds up, then goes grungy again. A short track with apocalyptic lyrics. 6. Hand of Doom - Slow, sinister, again with a fast bit in the middle. This appears to be an ANTI-drugs song. Did Ozzy heed his own warnings? (Well, he is still alive...) 7. Rat Salad - instrumental. A bit jazzy. The one with the drum solo, and mercifully short. I mean, I'm not completely against drum ...

Review of Paranoid - Black Sabbath

Welcome to the Dance of Death

Advantages: Lots of hits, great sound quality, one of the best bands ever
Disadvantages: Short playing time, not as good as "Rock In Rio"

I don't see myself as an insider of the rock- and metalszene in Europe, but nevertheless I recognize, of which topics metalfans are annoyed. This might be the 12th DVD single release by Manowar or black salsify-eating Black Metal bands throwing heads of dead sheeps into their audiences (me, I will going to bombard Mayhem with the skull of an elephant next time I see them on stage. Just for fun.). Or even a new live album by Iron Maiden. For a better ...
...The Road" is not really the very first live release from this favourite band of mine. Back catalogue already containing various live albums, for instance the legendary "Live After Death" from 1986, which is still considered to be the best Iron Maiden live album ever by lots of Maiden maniacs. Furthermore, there is the double album "A Real Live/Dead One" (I think it's from 1993), which was ony some comfort for the listeners due to leadsinger Bruce ...

Review of Death On The Road (Live) - Iron Maiden

Metallica - Master of Puppets

Advantages: Very deep lyrics
Disadvantages: Last album with Cliff Burton

The album Master of Puppets is the third studio album by America’s highest selling Metal band. It was released March 3rd 1986 and has since sold over 6 million copies in the USA alone. It is also the last album to be recorded with bassist Cliff Burton before a fatal bus accident while touring for the album. The album is considered one of the greatest thrash metal albums of all time and is considered a classic by critics and the band alike. The songs ...
...stick in your head. Master of Puppets- 8:35 This track opens with an amazingly raw riff that instantly allows you to get into the song. The lyrics talk about drugs taking over the mind though is often mistaken to be a story of slavery or something along those lines but either way they really show how creative the band has become because this 8 minute long song is full of melodies, different verses and tonnes of solos. Master of Puppets is often ...
