Haut&Court. - La Vie (2012)

Genre: Hardcore, Punk, Crust, Math Metal
Quality: WAV @ 1411kbps (As provided to me by the band in a comment)
About: In the mood for a completely unknown band!? "Haut & Court is a three piece band from Strasbourg, France who formed in June of 2012. Haut & Court play an angular and technically proficient style of music that incorporates elements hardcore, punk, crust, and math metal within their sound." - last.fm
Note that this artist tag is based on their official bandcamp and facebook pages, where the name is listed as "Haut&Court." (including the period and lack of spaces). However, their band logo is "HautEtCourt". And the more popular tag on last.fm is "Haut & Court" (spaces, no period). So I'm not sure!
Finally, MIND BLOWING album cover!

*RE-UPLOAD* A Very Strange Christmas (by hurricane_mario)

This playlist I made last December is so great, I had to share it with you! If you want any other re-uploads, comment on this post.

***************************************************



About:
It's the week before Christmas
and all through the house
Everyone is stirring and saying
"wtf are you listening to?"

This compilation consists entirely of bizarre versions of the classic christmas songs you know and love (or hate), as well as a lot of original christmas songs you've never heard. And if you have any sense at all, will never hear them again. But if you're weird like me, you will love them a lot better than that garbage they play on the radio every year (And you are inevitably very tired of by this point).

As with all my playlists, a good number of them are heavy metal, but not all of them.

Track List:
1. King Diamond - No Presents for Christmas [Original, but includes I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus] (Thrash/Heavy Metal)
2. Psychostick - Red Snow [original] (Humor / Hardcore)
3. Dio - God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen [classic] (Heavy/Doom Metal)
4. I Fight Dragons - Alien for Christmas [original] (Rock / Chiptune)
5. Steve Vai - Christmas Time is here [classic] (Guitar Virtuoso / Instrumental)
6. Jordan Rudess - Andelusion [original] (Piano Virtuoso / Instrumental)
7. Halford - Get Into the Spirit [original] (Power / Thrash Metal)
8. Abney Park - Little Drummer Boy [classic] (Steampunk / Darkwave / Gothic / Industrial)
9. Alice Cooper - Santa Claus is Coming To Town [classic] (Heavy/Shock Metal)
10. Keith Emerson - Troika [classic] (Keyboard / Fusion / Instrumental)
11. Austrian Death Machine - Jingle Bells [classic] (Humor / Metalcore)
12. South Park - Woodland Critter Christmas (5 second interlude)
13. Spinal Tap - Christmas With the Devil [original] (Satire / Classic Rock)
14. Tankard - Fuck Christmas [original] (Thrash Metal)
15. HeimatAerde - Veni Veni Emmanuel [classic - Oh Come Oh Come Emmanuel] (Darkwave)
16. Afroman - I Wish You Would Roll A New Blunt [classic - I Wish You A Merry Christmas] (Humor / Hip Hop)
17. Jingle Cats - What Child Is This?/hava Nagila [classic] (Uhh... I'm not sure. Here's the top 3 tags on last.fm: motherfucking christmas cats, psychedelic, death metal)
18. NanowaR Of Steel - Christmas with Nanowar [original] (Satire / Power Metal / Ballad)


As usual, a .m3u file is enclosed so click an option such as "import playlist" in your music player of choice, then select the file. I've said it before and I'll say it again, I'll try to get back to posting albums regularly.

For those wondering about the image. Sort of picked it at random. But "Santa" is an anagram for "Satan", and given track 13 it seemed appropriate.

Merry Christmas! ;D

Pretty Maids - Pandemonium (2010)

Genre: Heavy / Power Metal
Quality: MP3 256 kbps
About: One of those albums where each song just keeps getting better. It's another one of those bands that had a traditional 80s heavy metal / hard rock sound and gradually evolved to power metal, much like Rage, Sinner, Riot, or the many other similar artists. But they do it better than most. Pretty much all my spare time since I found it Sunday has been spent listening to this album. I don't know how to describe it except you need to listen if you're a fan of this genre!

Avantasia - The Wicked Symphony (2010) + Avantasia - Angel of Babylon (2010)

Genre: Symphonic Power Metal Opera
Quality: mp3 @ 320kbps
About: The Wicked Symphony sounds the most like "The Metal Opera Part III" that I've heard from Tobias Sammet since 2004's Edguy's "Hellfire Club." Tracks 2 and 3 are epically amazing, so you need to get it at the very least for those.

Angel of Babylon definitely shows his experimental side... while it is good, it is nowhere near many of his other albums, including TWS.

Anyway, here are both, for your own judgement. Personally, I believe releasing two completely different albums on the same day is a poor business move, but here they are. Buy them if you like them, delete them if you don't.

Christopher Lee - Charlemagne: By the Sword and the Cross (2010)

Genre: Symphonic Epic Heavy Metal Opera
About: After hearing that the infamous Christopher Lee... who has done everything from being the original Dracula and Frankenstein in the 1950s, to Lord of the Rings in the 2000s, to singing in a Rhapsody song... was doing a Symphonic Metal Opera/Concept album, I could not believe it. I love concept albums, I love metal/rock operas (there are far too few of them in existence) and I love him (no homo). Even more amazing is the fact that he's like 80 years old, I think. The intro and first two acts were really slow, and barely symphonic or metal at all, and I was starting to think we might have another Saana (Timo Tolkki) on our hands. But I was so wrong. Track 3 ramps right up with a really epic Heavy Metal masterpiece, and it does not let up for the rest of the album. I will definitely have to check out his older two albums sometime, and I hope he releases another album like this in the very near future. I'm not sure if "Iberia" is a bonus track, or a hint at a second album because it ends with "They have betrayed us!". Charlemagne part 2??

Here's the promo, featuring what is basically the climax of the album: (Yes, this album is extremely cheesy. But in a good way that brings a smile to your face.)



(Sorry, they are really cracking down on this album, since it was deleted from 3 hosters within a day. I'm not going to bother re-upping as they will just delete it again. Definitely don't go torrent this instead.)

Six Magics - Behind The Sorrow (2010)

Genre: Melodic Power/Heavy Metal
About: This is the best Power Metal album I've heard in years. These guys have it down to a science, and they have their PhDs. It's primarily a female fronted album but there are lots of duets with a male vocalist. It is melodic, epic, atmospheric, sometimes heavy and even political (halfway through track 1). Favorite on first listen is either track 1 or track 10, which is the last track and a really great conclusion to a great album. It was mastered/produced by some dude that produced Dream Theater albums in the past.

Rammstein - Liebe ist fur alle da (Deluxe Edition) (2009)

Genre: Heavy Metal, Industrial
About: I was not even going to upload this until i heard the song "Wiener blut". It is so fvcking heavy and evil, you really need to hear it if you are a fan of any type of metal. Jesus just download this album. Here's the extremely NSFW video of "pussy" if you need convincing.

Axewielder - The Nightcrew - 2009

Genre: Heavy Power Metal
About: Judging by the song titles, youd think this band is pretty epic, and it is. It's heavy power metal, but it is very raw, like older black metal, which i like, but some may not. This is their first full length release.

Sonata Arctica - The Days of Grays (2009)

Genre: Melodic Metal, Power Metal, Heavy Metal
About: Judging by tracks 1-4, this is the best album of 2009 already. I was a bit dissapointed from their last album, Unia, as it strayed so far away from their well-proven formula, but this gets back to it pretty well. Just download this. Unfortunately, as this is a leak, most of the tracks are really terrible bitrate, but it's worth it just to hear these amazing songs. And please buy the album on September 18th when it comes out!

It's my birthday today, and I didn't even know they had an album coming out soon, so finding this leak is possibly the best gift i could have gotten. Thank you Sonata Arctica, and thank you to the leaker, even though it was ripped at a douchebag bitrate and with occasional minor skips. But this is one of my favorite bands, so It's awesome still.

Like A Storm - Chemical Infatuation (2009) (Single) (256kbps)

(Click above image to buy (from Amazon, because iTunes may have finally gone DRM-free back in March but they still essentially have a monopoly on the digital music industry. (However, their free music player is nice. (However again, ipods and related products have always and will always suck. (And macs are overrated as sh*t (and all apple products are overpriced like mad; you can build your own pc for half the price of the same performance Mac))))))


(Click above image for their official Myspace)

Genre: Hard/Heavy/Alternative Rock/Metal (seriously these genres just blend together by now)
About: This is alt rock done right. From New Zealand but now residing in Vancouver. I had the good fortune of seeing them live on the Creed Reunion Tour this summer. Their full album "The End of the Beginning" is coming 'soon' and I've messaged them about an exact date which i will write here if i get one. I cannot wait.

Vougan - Mind Eceeding (2007) with bonus track

Genre: Heavy Power Progressive Metal
About: I cannot believe how unknown this band, and especially this singer, Carlos Zema is. He is just about my favorite singer, because he can combine the agression of growling vocals with the melodies of clean vocals. This album proves that perfectly so check this out, and also "Virus from Hell" which he does guest vocals on. The other musicians are equally amazing, with lots of surprises, most of which being in "L.O.S.T."

I included a bonus song that was on their myspace for a while, and according to their official site, they just finished their [extremely limited, grrr] US tour and are working on a second album now!

Epidemia (Rus) - Complete Discography with Correct English Tags! (1995-2009)

Genre: Heavy Metal, Power Metal, Metal Opera
About: This is the self-proclaimed "Best Power Metal band in Russia". Well, they're probably the only one. Even if they aren't, they're still amazing. They had a Demo, an EP, and 5 full lengths followed by a new EP from 2009. Most songs are in russian, but a few are in english. However the lyrics doesn't matter because the music is amazing! Even the demo is extremely high quality and well played. Some of the older songs include Tolkien and Lord of the Rings themes - "Frodo", "Ring Of Absolute Power", etc.

The two albums "Elven Manuscript" and "Elven Manuscript: Saga For All Times" are Metal Operas with many guest musicians, similar to the bands Aina, Avantasia, Missa Mercuria, and Queensrÿche. If you like any of those, don't miss out on these two albums! And if you like Heavy/Power Metal in general, all of these albums are must-listens.

It took hours to download these all on rapidshare ("rapidshit") and then fix all the tags, based on the track listings on the official english myspace, so I hope you enjoy it! They are all in 192+ kbps mp3 (including the demo), with 3 of them at 320kbps mp3.

If you download these albums anywhere else on the web, not only will it take forever, but you will have to go through the same tagging nightmare I did. Most of the titles were non existant characters (for example "Æèçíü â Ñóìåðêàõ").

Anyway, Enjoy!

Birds of Prey - Weight of the Wound (2006)

Genre: Death Metal, Thrash Metal, Heavy Metal, Sludge
About: Debut album. Pretty straightforward, if you like the genres above you will love this. Full review.

Download

Desire - Crowcifix (EP) (2009) (Desire (Prt) - Crowcifix)

Genre: Doom Metal, Melodic Death Metal, Heavy Metal, Funeral Doom Metal
About: Desire makes a rather unexpected return with an EP with two new tracks and a live song. I don't even know how to describe this band in words. The music is so powerful yet beautiful. For all fans of Doom metal.

Download

Revolution Renaissance - Age Of Aquarius (2009) (Full Album)

Genre: power metal, melodic metal, symphonic metal, heavy metal, track 9: Folk Metal, Pagan Metal
About: The band line up alone should be enough to make you want this album:

Gus Monsanto - Vocals (Takara, Adagio (Fra), Overdose (Bra), Astra (Bra), Skyrion (Guest))
Timo Tolkki - Guitar (Stratovarius)
Justin Biggs - Bass (Descend (Swe), Dying Daylight)
Mike Khalilov - Keyboards (Empyreon, Forevers Edge)
Bruno Agra - Drums (Aquaria, Uirapuru)

But if not, just think of Stratovarius but with a more full, enveloping sound. This is a great debut album with this line-up. (Plus infinitely times better than that Saana crap. If you don't know what I'm referring to don't even look it up.) But the real gem of this album is the last track, "Into the Future", an uplifting melodic-folk-pagan masterpiece.

Sorry for the duplicate track, I may fix it later

Also...There seems to be multiple track listings, and since their official site does not have it, I'm using the most widespread one. Guessing metal-archives.com is wrong.

1. Age of Aquarius
2. Sins of My Beloved
3. Ixion’s Wheel
4. Behind The Mask
5. Ghost of Fallen Grace
6. Heart of All
7. So She Wears Black
8. Kyrie Eleison
9. Into The Future

Mägo de Oz - Barakaldo D.F. (2008) (Live Concert Audio)

Genre: Folk Metal, Power Metal, Heavy Metal
About: This live album has many of my favorite songs from them starting off with the explosive "La Voz Dormida". The band sounds as tight as ever. This also features the melodic rock band "Nexx" former singer, Patricia Tapia, on backing vocals. Plus a power metal version of a Mozart Composition, which is quite amazing.

This concert was recorded sometime between the 2005 album "Gaia II: La Voz Dormida" and their 2007 album "La Ciudad De Los Árboles" so that is why I have it tagged as 2007. A band with so many albums as Mago De Oz it is easier in my opinion to add a date before the album names.

Moonspell - Lusitanian Metal (DVD Audio) (2008) - Separate mp3 tracks

Genre: Doom Metal, Heavy Metal, Black Metal, Gothic Metal
About: Moonspell is fantastic live. I had the good fortune to see them supporting Danzig (who sucks arse btw), and it was just awesome. The song Vampiria actually made me shake because of the atmosphere and how well it was played and the beautiful yet creepy red lights. Here is the track list for this concert.

Live At The City Of Ravens (Metalmania, Poland 2004):
1. Intro
2. In and Above Men
3. From Lowering Skies
4. Alma Mater
5. Vampiria
6. The Southern Deathstyle
7. Everything Invaded
8. Opium
9. Devilred
10. Abysmo
11. Ruin & Misery
12. Mephisto
13. Full Moon Madness

If you so wish, you can buy a 2-DVD set which includes: this concert, all of their music videos up to 2005, and various live footage from 1992-2005!

(I'm not sure why they have no material on here from post-2005, maybe they thought they were better a few years ago?)

Virus from Hell - Threat (2008) (featuring Carlos Zema of Heaven's Guardian, Vougan...)

Genre: Heavy Metal, Power Metal, Progressive Metal, Thrash Metal
About: It's heavy power metal, similar to everything else Carlos Zema has been in (Heaven's Guardian, Vougan, Coldera, Outworld). He's a guest vocalist on track 4. But the vocalist on the other two tracks deserves recognition as well. This music is perfectly suited to his amazing voice. The composer, Murilo Rassi, really deserves some recognition, and is looking for a label and managerial support, etc. He plays bass guitar for this album and for Heaven's Guardian in the past.
