Mercyful Fate - 9, 1999 CD Album Metal Blade Records, Attic - 398414242-2, 398414242-2 Today is the 35th anniversary of the release of Melissa! I figured it would be the ideal occasion to celebrate this unique, legendary, iconic band who, along with other heroes like Satan or Raven, upgraded the standards of heavy metal in the early 80s. MF were one reason I lost interest in Dickinson era-Iron Maiden. MF provided perfect riffs, higher energy, viciously non-washable melodic seduction, over the top vocals, top notch musicianship and satanic imagery all over the place, why would the wild and financially-limited teenager still bother with the post-Killers bedside stories from the gentle maiden? That first EP (on the The Beginning reissue) and then the immense Melissa reoriented headbangers priorities. Even Venom fans fell for it, we had to. And since there is no bad MF album - there is not even a mediocre MF album, they are all shining diamonds of classic and epic heavy metal - MF is to be considered the black star of classic metal until the end of the metalliverse! The Church of Mercyful Fate lives on forever because we can almost touch perfection and it is a warm feeling. Bang that head and bash it against the cross!

Having just received their swansong release, that marvelous split CD with the equally brilliant Khthoniik Ceviiks, and in order to mourn the demise of this short-lived purveyor of avant-garde metal greatness, let us celebrate and relive with all available decibels this orgy of unparalleled riffs since Eisenvater. Ugly and beautiful, dark and energizing, rusty and innovative, fast and disgusted, HOB sound like nobody and nobody sounds like HOB. Howls Of Ebb will remain forever in league with the most original purveyors of death of this decade. Howls Of Ebb howling forever in the deepest caverns of the triplazering deathiverse!

Uriah Heep - Living The Dream, 2018 CD Album Irond - IROND CD 18-1938 UH! An excursion on classic hard rock planet is always fun. Basically, if you don't like Deep Purple or the sound of the 70s, don't bother. I am a super fan of all the early records, a wise alliance of heavy riffs with prog extensions, infectious choruses and general excellence & variations in the song writing, from basic radio-friendly architectures to epic constructions, always rocking. The 80s segment in their discography is less brilliant, offering good albums (Abominog, Raging Silence) alternating with hard to swallow pieces of whoredom (Conquest, Head First: much too diabetic). The 90s start with the meh Different World, another entry that can be bypassed for the amount of cheese that surrounds the good songs, but from then on it is only gold and silver. The excellent Sea Of Light and the classic Sonic Origami announce the next decade of brilliance - since Sea Of Light, no bad song, just solid rocking energy and general greatness. Not only are the studio albums since Wake The Sleeper just amazing and addictive, but the numerous live releases are also top class classic heavy rock that displaces anything Deep Purple have done since 1980 to the bottom of the barrel (I am a DP fan). The newest Living The Dream is just an incredible goldmine of dangerously catchy songs. Once inside, can't extract then from the neuron. Such longevity is worthy of praise, but such longevity while still being constantly relevant and maintaining the level of amazing is a Gold Medal of Zer. Loooooooooooooooong live Uriah Heep until the end of the rockiverse! Remove brackets and unzip: [heep purple] !ZER Uriah Heep ZER! |
