'Slaughter Of The Soul' is the third studio album by At The Gates. It was their last album before their eleven-year breakup from 1996 to 2007. It is considered a landmark in melodic death metal and played a major role in popularizing the Gothenburg scene, alongside The Jester Race by In Flames and The Gallery by Dark Tranquillity. Andy LaRocque's neo-classical guest solo on 'Cold' was widely acclaimed as one of the greatest metal solos and guitarist Anders Bjorler admitted in 2007 that he still could not play it properly.

Black Metal
'Into The Pandemonium' is the third studio album by Celtic Frost. The album marks the return of bassist and backing vocalist Martin Eric Ain, who appeared on 1984's 'Morbid Tales'. The album is more varied than past releases, with an unlikely cover (Wall Of Voodoo's 'Mexican Radio'), emotionally charged love songs, industrial-influenced rhythmic songs of demons and destruction, and a classical piece with female vocals. Fans were divided by the diversity of the album upon release.
Celtic Frost was a Swiss metal band from Zurich formed in June 1984 by guitarist and vocalist Thomas Gabriel Fischer and bassist Martin Eric Ain after terminating the band Hellhammer a month prior. They are remembered for their strong influence on the development of several varieties of extreme metal and for their avant-garde approach to music more generally. After the release of 'Vanity/Nemesis' (1990), the group temporarily disbanded. They then re-formed in 2001 and released the critically acclaimed 'Monotheist' (2006), and finally disbanded permanently following Fischer's departure in 2008. His following band, Triptykon, was seen as a continuation of the legacy Celtic Frost had left.
