Dark Angel - We have Arrived (1984)


You are a thrashing maniac if you know of Dark Angel!
(Do not take this for serious you are still a scene kid)
If you want to be a thrashing maniac you should claim to love Darkness Descends!
(This album is great, no discussion)
But if you are a real wise friend of heavy metal you should know better: Their debut is even more charming then their later efforts, because it has this particular unbound yet savage feeling (just compare Merciless Death 84 edit. to it's 86 re-release within Darkness Descends). Beside the afore mentioned Merciless Death there are many other pretty catchy and noteable tracks on this record e.g. Welcome to the Slaughterhouse (seriously each track of this record is killer). Worship it or die!

P.S: I possibly add this bands later albums as well, because they are all seriously awesome.

Ulysses Siren - Above the Ashes (2003)




This compilation of Ulysses Siren's demos from 85 and 87 really deserved to be released upon mankind. If you think of other demo compilations like Thrash 'til Death by Slaughter Lord you might firstly think about the bad production which somehow decreases the listening experience, but I can assure you: Above the Ashes has a brilliant production which makes me wonder why still nobody really cares about this band. There are many aspects which actually should have guaranteed these guys a huge success: Their riffing is definitely above average likewise the vocals sound pretty nasty. While listening to this record you get violently pushed through 7 pretty fast and intense thrash tracks which won't annoy you at any time, I personally did never wish to skip even one of these gems.
