Strength Through Torture - Armagedda
Newest Review: ... the guitars are fuzzy and raw, production quality is tilted in favour of treble, and vocalist Graav rasps like a Swede ... more  ... possessed, with a little more dark enthusiasm than many other bands.
The first song is a slow beast, with comparatively melodic guitars following the typical black metal riff style, though at a naturally slower pace, and Phycon's drums keeping up the slow tempo. This greater emphasis on mood really brings out the tortured side of Graav's vocals which will make for quite a difficult and horrific listen for those uninitiated in the darker shades of metal, but to my ears it sounds quite pleasant.

Strength Through Torture - Armagedda: The Pros and Cons of Physical Coercion (264 words)

This limited edition E.P. was only produced as three hundred hand-numbered copies by the hilariously named Painiac Records, and makes for a surprisingly comprehensive overview of now-disbanded Armagedda's black metal despite only boasting two tracks. Both follow a traditional black metal style without any real embellishment: the guitars are fuzzy and raw, production quality is tilted in favour of treble, and vocalist Graav rasps like a Swede possessed, with a little more dark enthusiasm than many other bands.

Very heavy, just what you expect. 
Certainly not for the faint hearted. Two decent black metal songs from Shamaatae. Only two, and hopelessly obscure. If you're feeling nostalgic for late nineties nu-metal. Poor production and no original ideas. Pleasantly symphonic. A distinctly average Kamelot copy-cat.Werk 80 Vol.1 - Atrocity
Industrial style adapts well to the eighties electro pop originals. Rather pointless.
Twilight - Bathory
Brilliant atmosphere and excellent fusion of metal with neofolk. Too slow and atmospheric for old-school Bathory fans.
Dreamboat Annie - Heart
Great pieces of music, singing, lyrics, instrumentals Might be a touch too heavy for some
The Hits: Parental Advisory - Kelis
R&B & Soul - Soul - 2008
Story: 10th Anniversary - Amorphis
Lots of good songs from four albums, displaying the band's variety and skill. Nothing from 'Privilege of Evil,' and some of the choices are a bit strange.
Dreams Like Deserts - Aura Noir
Classic early black metal... ...that arrived ten years too late.
Da Derrty Versions: The Reinvention - Nelly
Original take on older material A few track could have been used instead of what was
Watch The Sun - Headcharger
An excellent rock album which integrates brilliantly elements of hardcore and metal. May be a little too heavy and hard hitting for some.
Chapters - Amorphis
A better collection than 'Story.' Suffers from the same drawbacks as that earlier release.
Those Whose Past Is Immortal - Astrofaes
Sophisticated black metal incorporating the best elements from various off-shoots. Really bad production.
