Darkthrone - Soulside Journey

Genre: Death
Country: Norway
Year: 1991

1. Cromlech
2. Sunrise Over Locus Mortis
3. Soulside Journey
4. Accumulation Of Generalization
5. Neptune Towers
6. Sempiternal Sepulchrality
7. Grave With A View
8. Iconoclasm Sweeps Cappadocia
9. Nor The Silent Whispers
10. The Watchtower
11. Eon




Debut album by Darkthrone. There’s no cold or harsh atmosphere to be found here and the musicianship is highly complexed and technical, which is the complete opposite of the way the later Darkthrone albums would sound.  The sound on this album sounds very Swedish, much similar to early Entombed, Grave, Unleashed and Dismember.

Suicidal Tendencies - Suicidal Tendencies


Genre: Crossover/Hardcore
Country: U.S.A.
Year: 1983

1. Suicide's An Alternative / You'll Be Sorry
2. Two Sided Politics
3. I Shot Reagan
4. Subliminal
5. Won't Fall In Love Today
6. Institutionalized
7. Memories Of Tomorrow
8. Possessed
9. I Saw Your Mommy...
10. Fascist Pig
11. I Want More
12. Suicidal Failure


Debut album by Suicidal Tendencies. The band is credited as one of the the fathers of crossover thrash. They'd later turn thrash, but on their first album, the sound is pretty much frenzied skate punk along the lines of peers Minor Threat and Black Flag. Mike Muir's vocals are much different on this album than they are on the albums that followed after, this is probably due to his young age.

Exodus - Pleasures Of The Flesh


Genre: Thrash
Country: U.S.A.
Year: 1987

1. Deranged
2. 'Til Death Do Us Part
3. Parasite
4. Brain Dead
5. Faster Than You'll Ever Live to Be
6. Pleasures of the Flesh
7. 30 Seconds
8. Seeds of Hate
9. Chemi-Kill
10. Choose Your Weapon




2nd album by Exodus, a worthy follow-up to one of the best thrash albums around, this time with Steve Souza replacing Paul Baloff in vocals. Steve Souza's shredding and shrill voice has got the right attitude for the music and the whole band seems to be having a fun time, with a playful side throwing in some humour to mix with the serious political attacks and general thrash concerns.

Immortal - Diabolical Fullmoon Mysticism


Genre: Black
Country: Norway
Year: 1992

1. Intro
2. The Call Of The Wintermoon
3. Unholy Forces Of Evil
4. Cryptic Winterstorms
5. Cold Winds Of Funeral Dust
6. Blacker Than Darkness
7. A Perfect Vision Of The Rising Northland








Debut album by Immortal. There is a strong Bathory influence here and the band draws heavily from Celtic Frost. Acoustic guitar passages are employed at various points to further elaborate upon an intricate mixture of styles. The production is raw and unpolished. Abbath's voice is rough and mixes well with the music.

9. Den Nidske Gud
10. Spigrene
11. ...Og Landet Ligger Så Øde Hen



3rd album by Svartsot. It doesn’t break any new ground, but the ground it holds it handles well. They continue a tale about the plague that harmed Europe in past. The lyrics and theme of this album is much darker than the previous recordings. The songs seem to be mostly mid-tempo melodic death metal with all harsh vocals and peppered with folk instrumentation, particularly whistles.

4. Wandering
5. Sick Inside
6. You Es Of Ey

Debut album by Leukemia, that came after a very successful demo. This one was a little left of normal when it came to death metal in 1993. Odd vocals (kind of hardcore yell), strange, humorous lyrics, but a solid release for the times. Guest musicians in this release were L.G. Petrov, Jörgen Sandström, Fredrik Lundberg and others.

Debut album by Die. This 37-minute death metal brutality fest doesn't let loose at any point. The work of guitarists Rasmus Henriksen and Tajs Kolman is complicated enough to keep from boring the listener. Typical brutal death growls, great drumming and nice production.
