Label: Necropolis Records
Date: 1993
Track listing: (favorites marked with an '*')
[1] De Sorte Sioers Land*
[Before they got popular, Einherjer was a great band. The self titled song 'Einherjer' still remains one of my favorites, with its whispered chant style singing and accoustic guitars.]
[CD back]
Label: Century Media
Date: 1986/1987/1998
Track listing: (favorites marked with an '*')
[1] Intro/The Heretic
[The singer for Possessed had one of the coolest voices in metal, unique and instantly recognizable. An awesome band that we never got to see their full potential. The song 'My Belief' is a fucking anthem for metal!]
[CD back]
Label: Death Records
Date: 1989

[1] Piece of Time*
[Another classic from 1989. And who could forget the lyrics from the song 'I Deny'- 'It's God's way, says your horrid wife.' Haha...!]
[CD back]
Label: View Beyond Records
Date: 1995
Track listing: (favorites marked with an '*')
[1] Black Dust*
[Opening up with the now classic line 'Human dreams... such a fruitful place, to plant the seeds, of terror!' This is one of the coolest songs you or I will ever hear.]

Date: 1994

[1] Innferd
[A legend. I'm surprised this CD didn't melt I played it so much in the early days. Truly cool and unique.]

Label: Peaceville
Date: 1990

[1] Charred Remains
[Some of the coolest cover art of its time! The song 'Disembowel' is classic early death metal.]

Label: Earache
Date: 1986/1991

[1] The Invocation/Chapel of Ghouls*
[Now here is some legendary stuff. Mike Browning of Nocturnus infamy on vocals and drums. This material was redone for 'Altars of Madnesss' and 'Blessed are the Sick', but personally I like these versions much better. Leagues better. They are much darker and more ferocious than the redone versions.]

[1] Intro
[David Vincent shined darkly in this masterful release. This is my favorite Morbid Angel with him on vocals.]

Label: Cold Meat Industry
Date: 1996

[1] Our God Weeps
[Those that know Arcana know that this band composes some beautiful dark classical sounding music, with choirs and great atmosphere. Truly masters at what they do. The last song on this CD, 'The Song of Mourning' is one of the greatest classical sounding tracks ever written. Truly darkly beautiful.]

Label: Deaf Records
Date: 1991

[1] The Red in the Sky is Ours/The Season to Come
[At the Gates introduced the idea that death metal could have violins involved. While this doesn't always work very well, this release was a good one. 'Kingdom Gone' is a great work of anger and violence.]
[CD back]
Label: Micetrap Records
Date: 2004
Track listing: (favorites marked with an '*')
[1] Sterben Mussen Wir Alle
[The technical skill, the production and songwriting of this release are all superb. The song '99 Judenschweine' is a take on the popular 1984 song '99 Luftballons' by 'Nena', and is excellent!]
