I have two major interests in Life (apart from writing & whisky), two constants which have been by my side since I was 10 years old; Heavy Metal music and Videogames. I could get overly dramatic here and say when times have been bad these 2 have seen me through but I won't. Oh right...I just did. Well its true. Join me as I delve into the fun of old....

Four Great Albums Worth Checking Out
Sabbat ~ History Of A Time To Come. Napalm Death ~ From Enslavement to Obliteration. The Almighty ~ Soul Destruction. Gary Moore ~ Wild Frontier
Four great late eighties metal albums finally tracked down on CD. (The Almighty was the hardest to find). I know Napalm Death are a little over the top for some but as soon as I heard them on BBC's Arena prog back in 1988 I was blown away. Almost literally, such was the ferocity of their music!
I think its wonderful that some of these albums are getting released on cd when most were pretty obscure even in their glory days. It feels strange to be raving on about the humble compact disc in these days of iPods and Kindles, when CD's themselves seem to be regarded as old fashioned, but to an old metalhead like myself, finding these classics in this format is mighty pleasing.
