Death Is Just The Beginning – Vol. 7 – Review

Split (kinda) into power metal on disc one and extreme on disc two, tracked alphabetically per disc, there’s so much to open yer eyes, if yer at all into metal.

Call on the Dark – 2 – Review

April 1, 1999

While I prefer NB’s Beauty in Darkness2 and CM’s FireStarter to this, fans of dancier and/or less metal-tinged darkness will simply die for Call on the Dark2.
