... otherwise excellent 'Dark Genesis' boxset that contained their earliest albums, and could be forgiven as an unnecessary extra. But then someone had the bright idea to market it as a genuine full-length release, and it has to be treated as such. Not only is the selection of bands and songs repetitive and incredibly obvious, but Iced Earth's versions are uniformly worse than the originals, simply for trying to hard to match them exactly.

Nordland Vol.2 - Bathory - 
Final masterpiece of unrelenting Viking metal, less showy and more atmospheric. 
Some songs are waaaaaaaaaaaaay too long.
Dark Ages - Soulfly - max calavera, marc rizzo, i and i, babylon, fuel the hate, amazing band and best album nothing.
Lightning To The Nations (the White Album) - Diamond Head - Excellent album - a true classic None whatsoever
Turbo - Judas Priest - Great vocals, impressive guitar work and some effective use of synthesisers. Too many bland and occasionally annoying pop-rock songs.
Unleashed In The East - Judas Priest - Impressive performance of many early Judas Priest classics. Original release is lacking in quantity, and some favourites are always going to be missing.
Above The Weeping World - Insomnium - Classic Gothenburg sound revisited, with a faithful and creative performance. Second half of the album runs out of ideas.
