Bal-Sagoth: Battle Magic
CD Audio I have it ★★★★
Howard's writings revisited in full symphonic extremism. The most beautiful keyboard works ever written by this band.
Bal-Sagoth: The Power Cosmic
CD Audio I have it ★★★★
Sometimes imagination does good. And this is a true daydream, a journey through time, a time far away; a futuristic flight framed by parts narrated in clean and scream vocals. Imposing keyboards and double bass bursts are the trademark of these eight sensational metallic symphonies.
Bathory: Twilight of the Gods
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
Untouched, sublime, melancholic, desolate.
Bathory: Blood on ice
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
An ancient pagan legend of revenge, rooted in the pillars of Norse faith. The eye of Odin, the virtue of Sleipnir, the invisible flight of Huginn and Muninn. The harrowing and cold epic of a retaliation born from the fire cast by the hand of man. A fire that burns the homeland, a fire that devours men and animals, a fire that spreads the acrid scent of blood on the ice...
Bathory: Under The Sign Of The Black Mark
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
Black
Bathory: Nordland I
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
The Nordic atmospheres of "Blood On Ice" blend with the unspoiled ones of "Twilight of the Gods." The sounds are raw, thunderous, explosive, and the pace is calm and evocative. A timeless sound fresco that beautifully concludes one of the most incredible discographic epics that metal has ever known.
Bathory: Hammerheart
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
Awkward, raw, poetic, dramatic. A concept about the Christianization of peoples seen from the perspective of the Vikings. An excellent blend of black and epic. Pure emotions. "One Road to Asa Bay" is the band's manifesto: a tortured and angry homage to the end of an era...
Bathory: Nordland II
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
...and the final Viking whimper of Thomas Forberg still convinces. Snow-covered mountains and frigid seas once again freeze the listener's heart...for the last time...
Ben Howard: I Forget Where We Were
CD Audio I have it ★★★★
Recommended for listening in autumn. Emotions that bring tears to your eyes...
Biglietto Per L'Inferno: Biglietto Per L'Inferno
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
Here, this is an absolute masterpiece. Despite the raw sound (typically banned from prog), it manages to be listened to with fluidity. "Confessione" should be heard at least once in a lifetime.
Black Label Society: Shot To Hell
CD Audio I have it ★★★★
The booklet is nice too. An album that alternates abrupt changes in style, between hard'n'heavy bursts and a very interesting series of "mounting" ballads. To be listened to in the car with friends or while you’re getting it on with the girl of the moment!

    I listened to them when I was a little virgin. COINCIDENCE? I DON'T THINK SO
Blind Guardian: Somewhere Far Beyond
CD Audio I have it ★★★★
The best album by the Germans. Speed and adrenaline blend with folk elements and imposing choruses. A fresh, dynamic, and technical example of how to create power-speed metal without sounding flat and predictable.
Blue Cheer: Vincebus Eruptum
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
Oh my goodness, what cruelty! Monolithic sounds, distorted guitars, and at times unsettling: and we’re only in '68! A blues/rock that serves as a prologue to a progressive and gradual hardening of the sound that will involve the bands to come. A journey destined to persevere for over two decades.

    it's not: oh my goodness, what cruelty. It's: oh my goodness, what pleasure.

    Discone. At the time, perhaps the loudest band around. The subsequent "Outside Inside" is also a discone. Slightly more 'soft' (with 100 quotation marks...)

    NO Outside Inside is a terrifying disappointment, after the blue cheer of VE it's the turn of "kingdome come" by sir lord baltimore. then d black sabbath. and then we will have stanato dragonstar from the medal checca and he will be able to enjoy the marble member of the medal puzzone like all of us. Come on dragon, join the train!

    uh! YouTube keeps throwing me the recommended "Weed" by "Weed." If it shows up for you too, click on it immediately, it’s a banger, the kind of stuff Magnus Pelander probably dreams about at night.

    I subscribe... Discone "Kingdom Come". But for my tastes, a couple of balls disappointment "Outside Inside".

    Incredible record this one too (I have the big vinyl), anyway I had already taken the train, it's just that you couldn't see me because I was at the back. It's true that sometimes I switch tracks and someone might get hurt, but the relationship between music and opinions is the same as what a man experiences when interacting with people: he expresses his authenticity, his way of being, his choices, only to discover that in life there will always be someone who loves him and someone else who will hate him to death. And that's the most beautiful thing in the world! Anyway, nes, thank you so much for your care. :)

    Wait: you have Sir Lord Baltimore on vinyl and when you're here you come to talk to me about Rhapsody, Ironsky, Folkstone, Grave Digger, and Bathory??? And that's not right, for God's sake!

    It's a gift from my uncle. I also tried with Aqualung by Jethro Tull, but he only let me hold it (the '71 pressing, a real heart-stopper!); but I quickly put it down because with the look he gave me, he made it clear that he would have bitten my hands off if I even thought about taking it away. I like the bands you mentioned, of course, it's a whole different world and a completely different way of appreciating music. But yes, I like them too...

    I find it crazy that you also like Grave Digger but not Blue Cheer. But tastes differ.
  • Dragonstar
    19 mar 15
    Come on, it wasn't a ranking. The Digger have done great work (in my opinion), but they are an insignificant band in the history of sonic evolution. The Blue Cheer, out of nowhere, invented all of this: it’s only logical that the history belongs to them, right?
Blue Öyster Cult: Secret Treaties
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
Alright, another amazing record! For me, it's slightly inferior to Tyranny and Mutation (the absolute masterpiece), but there's still great adrenaline in these eight tracks: the finale of Dominance and Submission feels like the prelude to a demonic summon, and the sinister echoes of Career of Evil are irresistible. A terrifying conclusion with Astronomy, a cosmic and visionary ballad of rare splendor.

    Well, this is fabulous, just like the two previous ones.
Blue Öyster Cult: Tyranny And Mutation
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
Energetically dark, this album is one of the cornerstones of 70s hard rock (and of all time). Listening is recommended while reading Howard Philipps Lovercraft.
Brocas Helm: Black Death
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
Among the most beautiful epic albums of all time. Tetro, dramatic, powerful, and heroic. The metallic whirl of the title track alone is worth the blind purchase. "Prepare for Battle" is also great with its clumsy choruses, and "Hell Whip" is an anguished and claustrophobic descent into the inferno. There's even an unexpected gem: "The Chemist" is pure and ungraceful medieval harmony. The production sacrifices it a bit but in no way diminishes its beauty!

    I can't understand why the cover of "Defenders of Crown..." has come off.
Buckethead: Crime Slunk Scene
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
The manifesto of Buckethead. A carefree, captivating, and intense first part, where the irony of the acoustic sections occasionally breaks through; and a second part made up of explosive experiments on hard'n'heavy bases, where the robotic and frenzied riffs typical of the shredder return. Superb.
Burzum: Umskiptar
CD Audio I have it ★★★★
A record balancing between acclaim and criticism. For me, it's very beautiful. Burzum's music is tinged with pagan (almost Viking) hues, set against obsessively linear compositional structures. An evocative first part with decidedly metal sounds, followed by a second part of electroacoustic ambience dominated by the melancholy of the guitars and Varg's spoken chant; worthy of the most inspired pagan bard.

    I think it's a great album, on par with Belus and Filosofem. Good job, Dragon!

    Filosofem makes me ejaculate every time! :) By the way, I will have to define that too! Coming soon to these screens...

    When I was 3 years old, they gifted me the Chicco keyboard, and back then I was as malefic and satanic as him! NORWEGIAN BLACK METAL 666!!!!!!!!11111111111111
  • the best Burzum album of all time.
...when psychedelia meets buzzing guitars, hallucinatory vocals, and a rhythmic session with a post-apocalyptic flavor, the result could be very close to the atmosphere of this album.
Crazy and unsettling, yet ironic and absurd. A proposal that touches various branches of heavy music to create a one-of-a-kind style. A milestone of rock!
