Left Hand Path

Entombed - Left Hand Path (1990)

[Death Metal]

Sweden

Rating - 3 Stars

In a world where every death metal band now sounds the same and plays the same it is hard to think back the glory days when the genre had an awkward birth, carefully shedding it's 'extreme thrash' skin to reveal something darker and more sinister beneath. The American's lead the charge in the mid 80's but by the decade's end the Europeans were giving them a run for their money, and when Entombed (out of Sweden) released such a watershed album so early on it almost single-handedly signalled in the next era of metal. This was ground zero for true death metal, and the albums 'buzz-saw' guitar tone is still revered today for its unique sound. Although this was the band's first album, Entombed had grown from the ashes of the proto-death metal band Nihilist, so had honed their chops for years before making it, and it showed in the intensity of the material. The title track pulverises from the moment it launches, but things get even more brutal on 'Drowned' and 'But Life Goes On'. Entombed over their next few albums would move away from straight up death metal into more of a 'death & roll' direction, and interestingly in hindsight tracks like 'When Life Have Ceased' and 'The Truth Beyond' already have a rock undertone showing through. Like most early albums of the genre, the production is ragged, but L.G. Petrov (R.I.P.) growls has way through every track, sounding destitute and anguished, and perfectly complements the tone of the production. In 1990, this was truly mind-blowing.

Hysteria

Def Leppard - Hysteria (1987)

[Hard Rock]

United Kingdom

Rating - 4 Stars

Looking back now, I can't believe we are 40 years on from their breakout Pyromania record. My heart does lie 4 years later with Hysteria. The record is chock full of hits, including the first track which appeals to any male ('Women'). This had them juggling the line of a pop vs hard rock record. There are other examples, including 'Animal' and 'Pour Some Sugar On Me'. The alternate side is tracks like 'Rocket', the second track that brings that stadium sound to the record and gets the hairs on the back of your neck standing up. My favourite on the record is 'Gods Of War'. A very emotional song. I will admit, the record does peter-off toward the end with tracks such 'Don't Shoot Shotgun' and the cheesy 'Excitable'. Despite this, I keep returning for a listen. Brings up great memories of 1987. Also quick mention of Allen and his first attempts at drumming with one arm. Watch him on video. Amazing.

'Priest...Live!' is the second live album released by Judas Priest. The songs were recorded on their 1986 'Fuel For Life' tour which supported the album 'Turbo'.

Judas Priest are an English heavy metal band formed in 1969. Rob Halford's operatic vocal style and the twin guitar sound of K.K. Downing and Glenn Tipton have been a major influence on many heavy metal bands. Judas Priest's image of leather, spikes, and other taboo articles of clothing was widely influential during the glam metal era of the 1980s. Despite an innovative and pioneering body of work in the latter half of the 1970s, the band struggled with indifferent record production and a lack of major commercial success until 1980, when the album 'British Steel' brought them notable mainstream attention. They have sold over 50 million albums and are frequently ranked as one of the greatest metal bands of all time.
