"Hellish Crossfire - blackened thrash band that made said album"


oh... pfft. whenever you mentioned them i always thought you were talking about the album.

JLRedWing13

That was the mistake I made when I was asked to look them up lol.

drinkwine732

I'll give it one more listen tomorrow, but Barren Earth just might make it into the top 3...

Adam

i am working on listening to more albums
Rhapsody of Fire
Arsis - Starve for the Devil
hellish crossfire
cynic
land mine marathon
Triptykon - Eparistera Daimones

drinkwine732

Cynic is actually really good. I wouldn't call it amazing, but the reinterpretations are great, and Wheels Within Wheels wouldn't have fit on Traced in Air, but it did on this EP.

Why is Annihilator only a download? I want a physical copy damnit!!!!!

Stratophony

studio time is expensive.... people dont buy annihilator albums to begin with.

Deificus254

The annihilator album was mediocre at best. I just finished listening to it today. Although, I will have to give it one more go around before I can make my final decision. My line-up has changed though.

Rhapsody of Fire - The Frozen Tears of Angels
Jon Oliva's Pain - Festival
The Dead Weather - Sea of Cowards
Avantasia - The Wicked Symphony
The Ocean - Heliocentric
Lair of the Minotaur - Evil Power
Exodus - Exhibition B : The Human Condition
Pain of Salvation - Road Salt One
Finntroll - Nifelvind
Heathen - The Evolution of Chaos

Runners Up: I need to relisten to all of these to state my true verdict.

Unleashed - As Yggdrasil Trembles
Cynic - Re-Traced EP
Arsis - Starve For The Devil
Dream Evil - Into the Night
Excalion - High Times
Annihilator - Annihilator

I still have a whole list of albums to go, including:

Madder Mortem
Eluveitie
Woe of Tyrants
The Black Angels
Overkill
Satanic Supremacy

drinkwine732

Are you including EPs in your list?

Deificus254

I can if they are good enough.

Deificus254

Oh yeah I still have the Black Majesty, Masterplan, Katatonia and Bison B.C. to listen to as well.

drinkwine732

I was thinking I'd just make a separate EP list this year.

Deificus254

I can do that too. However, Blind Guardian, Madder Mortem, Cynic, Gojira and Katatonia are the only EP's I know of so far.

JLRedWing13

STP is going to make my list the way the album is sounding.....

drinkwine732

I'll be doing at least Cynic, Gojira, Katatonia are all the EPs I have on my plate as of right now, but I might be looking for some more later.

Shane

NolaFree810
