Great review Decline: so much nostalgia for me and the good times spent with ocram and Bartleboom when they were thinking about reviewing this album. It’s one of those secondary albums that, however, become classics for some. Besides this, I have a strong fondness for Gammacide, or for Acrophet's "Faded Glory," or for dear Zoetrope and also Vendetta. The cover is unsettling and reflects the music; there are indeed some shadows, or rather some clouds like on the cover, but there’s also a lot of atmosphere. Sending warm regards to ocram and Bartleboom :)

Hi Extro, personal and work issues keep me away from these pages, I've hardly come up with even half an idea even though there are still quite a few bands to cover, but I see that Decline has already filled in some gaps..talk soon and thanks for the appreciation:)

I was listening to "Beyond Recognition" and, hoping someone had reviewed it, I stopped by to take a look :))) Really nice review, I'm glad I haven't been forgotten. I don't know if I could still write that well, such nostalgia... hello Bartleboom :)))

Assassin The Upcoming Terror

I haven't changed my mind, and I haven't listened to the album, just like the next one. I don't have a good relationship with Assassin; I don't even understand why I often listen to Acrophet (authors of the fast "Corrupt Minds" and "Faded Glory") and leave Assassin to their fate. Anyway, I've realized that there are countless opinions about every album, and mine aren't copied from anywhere; it wouldn't even make sense ;-)

It's been a while since I've been around here... your comment makes me very happy, I even remember that big mistake; maybe I wrote it too quickly. I had some ideas for "Stone Cold Sober" somewhere, but too much time has passed...

Kreator Cause for Conflict

I fully agree! I'm sending out various resumes, but I occasionally poke my nose into the conversation. However, I have a weakness for the intro of "End Of The World" I can't understand what the demon is mumbling...

Here I am, as always, thank you for the comments and suggestions, much appreciated. @Electricone "Renewal" is a great album but "Endorama" is no joke either: Kreator have proven they can tackle different sounds very well. Sometimes I even find myself listening to "Pleasure To Kill" strictly on old vinyl and then switching to "Endorama"; I'm not at all shocked but manage to appreciate its nuances. Today was a terrible day, there were a lot of problems at the office and at times I thought of the warrior from "Endless Pain."

"Great definition: go for it. Everything you find from Colin and the MAW is gold (and don’t trust anyone who says otherwise)." That's what you wrote in the last comment on the review of "Looking For A Jack." I got to know Colin through that album, and it’s the only one that comes close to Men At Work; then in the following ones, his voice is always front and center, creating the atmosphere most of the time. I remember "Wayfaring Sons," while I should revisit the others, but it’s thanks to your review that I started listening to it; otherwise, I would have been stuck with Men At Work. And that would have been a shame, bye!

Led Zeppelin Presence

I quote Green Manalishi. This is the Led Zeppelin album I've listened to the most; maybe "Tea For One" is too long and seems sluggish, but recently, listening to it again with a particular mindset, I've started to like it. Perhaps I have many fond memories tied to this record, but for me, it's excellent, infinitely superior to the next one that sold a few million copies more. I might be exaggerating, but it deserves a 4.5, and I even round up.
