Brush off the cobwebs

Annihilation Principle is the fourth album from Californian thrash metal band, Laaz Rockit (Remember them). It was released in 1989 and it embodies all that is good about 80's thrash metal. Fire in the Hole and Holiday in Cambodia will be the most recognised tracks on the album and at close to 60 minutes long, it's an hour well spent. \m/ check out more info about this classic album here

Pitchshifter - I love this band

 

On my i-pod 'Mortiis' Smells like...... very dark spirits!!!.

Industrial Goth enigma Mortiis' best album in my opinion.
artist: Mortiis / title:The Smell Of Rain / when: 2001 / format: full length album.

Initial attempts at getting the CD booklet printed up as transparent layers of art and text was turned down by the label several times. Learn more about the album here Stand out track for me is 'you put a hex on me' but it's all great. When talking about the influence for the imagery that his band uses, Mortiis has commented, "A lot of people do not get that you can do more than just look like you're waiting for a bus. I mean how dull is that? I grew up with KISS, W.A.S.P. and Alice Cooper.

Long live the King... Diamond

The main man has a new album coming out 'Give Me Your Soul ... Please' and judging by the free song on his website (Never Ending Hill) it's going to be ACE. Download the song here I read that the King said "Want to get a little taste of what you might expect from the lyrics? Here you go: Me and my black cat Magic, the beautiful house on Never Ending Hill, the little girl in the bloody dress and her dead little brother, the dark, the floating head woman, shapes of black and YOU." :O) Give Me Your Soul ... Please is set to be released at the last week of June. \m/
