Single CD edition featuring the Brazilian SEPULTURA's 1986 debut album “Morbid Visions” together with the five tracks from “Bestial Devastation”, the legendary split LP with OVERDOSE originally released in 1985. This collection gathers the band's most primitive, savage and merciless material, capturing the moment when SEPULTURA began forging its legend within the extreme underground.
Both “Morbid Visions” and “Bestial Devastation” showcase an extremely raw and aggressive sound, where the darkest Thrash Metal merges with the earliest forms of Death Metal and a strongly blasphemous, infernal and chaotic atmosphere. Influenced by the first wave of extreme bands from the 1980s, these recordings radiate violence, darkness and authenticity, becoming essential pieces for understanding the birth of South American extreme Metal.
A perfect opportunity to discover the origins of one of the most influential bands in Metal history and experience their wildest and most visceral recordings.
Recommended for fans of HELLHAMMER, SARCÓFAGO, POSSESSED, BATHORY and VULCANO.

CD reissue of the only demo from '89 (11 tracks/ 30 min.) plus a live version of SODOM from the same year, from this Polish band of primitive and aberrant Thrash Metal in a very similar style to the Australians SLAUGHTER LORD, that is, a kind of wilder KREATOR/ TORMENTOR.
2nd album from 1985 by the American SLAYER, one of the most influential and groundbreaking releases of the early Thrash Metal era. “Hell Awaits” represented a massive step forward from the band's debut, showcasing a much darker, more aggressive and ambitious approach while laying many of the foundations that would later shape extreme Death Metal.
With its infernal atmosphere, more elaborate songwriting and a level of intensity rarely heard at the time, the album solidified SLAYER's identity and established the band as one of the most innovative and dangerous acts of the 1980s Metal scene. Now regarded as an undisputed classic, it remains an essential reference for generations of musicians and fans of extreme Metal.
Recommended for fans of KREATOR, POSSESSED, DESTRUCTION and DARK ANGEL.

8th album from 2017 by the American THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER, one of the leading bands in modern Melodic Death Metal. “Nightbringers” represents another major step forward in the band's evolution, combining the speed, aggression and technical prowess that have always defined its sound with increasingly refined and mature songwriting.
With the addition of guitarist Brandon Ellis, the band further strengthened its arsenal of riffs and melodies, delivering an intense, dynamic and highly distinctive album. Supported by an excellent production and Trevor Strnad’s unmistakable vocal performance, “Nightbringers” stands among the most acclaimed releases of this period in the band's career.

4th album from 1995 by the Swedish THERION, one of the most innovative and influential bands to emerge from the European extreme Metal scene. “Lepaca Kliffoth” represents a crucial turning point in the band's evolution, showcasing its transition from Death Metal roots toward a far more ambitious, atmospheric and experimental sound that would lay the foundations for its future identity.
Combining Death Metal with symphonic elements, choral arrangements and strong classical music influences, the album develops a unique and highly distinctive approach that was far ahead of its time. Its avant-garde spirit and willingness to break traditional Metal boundaries often recall the pioneering vision of CELTIC FROST's “Into the Pandemonium”. A key release in THERION's discography that anticipated the emergence of modern Symphonic Metal and further established Christofer Johnsson as one of the most creative minds in European Metal.
Recommended for fans of CELTIC FROST, TIAMAT, CREMATORY and MOONSPELL.
2nd album from 1990 by the German band THUNDERHEAD, a powerful blast of pure classic Heavy Metal packed with razor-sharp riffs, strong melodies, and an attitude deeply rooted in the most powerful and streetwise old-school tradition.
