9. Asmodeus’ Rage






2nd album by Strikelight. Old school heavy metal with major NWOBHM influences and a voice that seems to be stuck in the '80s. Killer guitar riffs, nice galloping drums accompanied with an old school bass attitude. With no modern influences at all and songs that sometimes reach the level of epicness, the band pays tribute to pure heavy metal.

Forbidden - Forbidden Evil


Genre: Thrash
Country: U.S.A.
Year: 1988


1. Chalice Of Blood
2. Off The Edge
3. Through Eyes Of Glass
4. Forbidden Evil
5. March Into Fire
6. Feel No Pain
7. As Good As Dead
8. Follow Me







Debut album by Forbidden. It is a convincing debut release, featuring some inspired guitar work and a lot of memorable songs. Russ Anderson's vocals are very powerful and distinctive and the music is generally more original and stronger than what many other bands of the era had to offer. There's some roughness in the sound but the overall production is sufficiently heavy and clear.

Flotsam And Jetsam - Doomsday For The Deceiver


Genre: Thrash/Speed
Country: U.S.A.
Year: 1986

1. Hammerhead
2. Iron Tears
3. Desecrator
4. Fade To Black
5. Doomsday For The Deceiver
6. Metalshock
7. She Took An Axe
8. U.L.S.W.
9. Der Führer
10. Flotzilla






The classic debut of Flotsam And Jetsam is a mixture of immense speed and some weird humor in lyrics. Eric A.K. had an extremely high-pitched voice that is very distinctive, but may not be, for some fans, the most appropriate for this kind of music. It is still an interesting piece of old thrash metal and probably one of the more remarkable releases this band ever made.

They are coming from Germany, but teutonic thrash is not the style they prefer. They play a mix of swedish melodic death/thrash with american modern thrash, with plenty of solos and melodic riffs, reminding Arch Enemy in moments, and they do it very good.

Guitars play an important role in structure of songs, keyboards play the role of creating an epic atmosphere without ruin the structure of the song and vocals are raspy and aggressive. Aside indisputable qualities in songwriting, the recording is well performed, recorded and mixed as well.
