Operation: Mindcrime II
by Queensryche
I Remember, but does Queensryche? Easily the best album Queensryche has released since Empire, but Mindcrime II certainly doesn't have the import of the original. |

Dante XXI
by Sepultura
Sepultura Descends Into the Inferno Dante XXI is the best Sepultura album to be released since Roots. |

Sky High
by Bad Wizard
Metal Madness Perhaps in welcome reaction to the barrage of over-produced, image-dominated music that still holds a death grip on the radio airwaves and musical channels these days, the '70s style of metal certainly seem to be making a bit of a comeback, one band at a time. What Whitestarr are doing for southern fried rock, Bad Wizard are doing to keep raucous Black Sabbath type metal alive. |

Awaken The Guardian (reissue)
by Fates Warning
A classic album, lovingly revisted Any progressive metal or Fates Warning fan who doesn't already own a copy of Awaken the Guardian needs to purchase the release as soon as possible. |

Speed Metal Messiah
by Stump, Joe
Stump Returns to Save Us from Ourselves Pretty much exactly what you'd expect from a Joe Stump album; jaw droppingly impressive guitar work at a speed and volume which will eventually kill brain cells. |

FWX
by Fates Warning
The Fates' 10th offering Another typically strong offering from Fates Warning, and one that should appeal to fans old and new. |

The Blessed and the Damned
by Iced Earth
The very best of Iced Earth A great introduction to the band for fans new to Iced Earth. Beware though, The Blessed and the Damned will leave you wanting even more. |

So Far, So Good...So What! [Re-Issue]
by Megadeth
The Arsenal of Megadeth Can't Be Rid ...frontman Mustaine and bassist David Ellefson were nearly as drug addled as Poland and Samuelson; and So Far, So Good...So What would go on to be riddled with production problems from the outset. |

Peace Sells...But Who's Buying? [Re-Issue]
by Megadeth
Buy It Technology has improved a lot between 1986 and 2004. |

Unbreakable
by Scorpions
Do the Scorpions still have it? An album that should please fans but won't be getting much airplay, even on stations that still play "Rock You Like A Hurricane" to death. |
