Definitive reissue of the 1997 debut mini CD by Canada's NECROMORTIS, a crushing Old School Brutal Death Metal band that, despite its short lifespan, left behind an excellent example of the extreme sound dominating the North American scene in the late 1990s. “Burning Priest” delivers a brutal combination of heavy riffs, cavernous vocals, crushing grooves and relentless aggression rooted firmly in the genre's classic tradition.
In addition to the original material, this reissue significantly expands the release with 14 bonus tracks gathering the band's complete recorded output: a full re-recording of the EP with an additional bonus track, a 1998 demo and three live tracks recorded that same year. An essential release for collectors and devotees of authentic underground Brutal Death Metal.

12th album from 2003 by this legendary American Thrash Metal band, marking a significant creative resurgence after several releases issued during some of the most difficult years for the genre. Rather than slowing down, OVERKILL returned with one of the strongest and most aggressive albums of its modern era, proving they remained a major force in Thrash Metal.
Its sound recaptures much of the intensity and speed of the band's classic years, combining razor-sharp riffing, a powerful production and the unmistakable energy of Bobby "Blitz" Ellsworth and D.D. Verni. More direct and forceful than its immediate predecessors, the album is packed with aggressive and memorable songs that have made it one of the most highly regarded releases of OVERKILL's 21st-century catalogue.
Recommended for fans of: TESTAMENT, EXODUS, DESTRUCTION and ANTHRAX.
4th album from 1988 by the American PANTERA, and arguably the most important release from the band's pre-“Cowboys from Hell” era. “Power Metal” marked the arrival of vocalist Phil Anselmo and showcased a decisive evolution in the band's sound, gradually moving away from the Glam Metal influences of their early years in favor of a more powerful, aggressive approach firmly rooted in traditional Heavy Metal.
The album combines sharp riffs, strong melodies, powerful vocal performances and a notable influence from both American and European Heavy Metal of the mid-1980s. Without completely abandoning their melodic roots, the band develops a heavier and more muscular sound that clearly foreshadows the direction they would take in the years to come. Tracks such as “Power Metal”, “Over and Out” and “Proud to Be Loud” reveal a band in full transition toward its definitive identity.
Considered by many fans to be a hidden gem within PANTERA’s discography, the album serves as the perfect bridge between their early releases and the revolution that would soon arrive with “Cowboys from Hell”.
Recommended for fans of JUDAS PRIEST, SAVATAGE, METAL CHURCH, VICIOUS RUMORS and HELSTAR.
