Just when I was about to download these albums, I found the originals. Quite surprising since Megadeth albums after Risk aren't available here. Probably it has to do with the fact that these two bands toured here.

Megadeth - United Abominations - Good stuff.

MachineHead - The Blackening - Still have to give this album a few more listens. Listened to it only once. Sounds interesting. Halo appealed to me.

Both albums are worthy, UA has it's nice moments and The Blackening means MH are a credible metal band. My two pence.

I could be wrong, but I remember hearing that one of the sections of the picture is the wrong way up.

I'll just flip the back pic then?

I have the first seven Maiden albums with Eddie on the spine, then the past three Bruce albums-the rest I have are copies but I should really buy them all because atm on my CD shelf I have like 2/3rds of Eddie's face, haha.

Thomas · **Posted:** Sun May 25, 2008 3:45 pm

wow, I just compared the original killers with the remastered. The difference is huge!

Stefan · **Posted:** Sun May 25, 2008 5:11 pm

In a good way imho... Remastered edition has a crystal clear sound that allows to hear the awesome musicianship! :dio:

Testament-Formation of Damnation

So far sounds not bad, plus it came in the form of a small book haha.

Carcass-Nectroticism blahblahblah

Never heard this, always meant to, plus it had a free DVD.

Just a warning, don't buy the Testament album with the free DVD, it's fucking TERRIBLE and I find it hard to believe that they're passing it off as a making of. It's literally some guy sneakily filming some shots of them recording and there's long awkward silences, no music or commentary and nobody ever talks to the camera. Fucking hell, it might actually be one of the worst pieces of shit ever.

Primordial - To the nameless dead
Iron Maiden - Live after death

Zomg I bought some cds.

Jesu - Conqueror
Khoma - The Second Wave

Don't know why I got the Korpiklaani, still haven't heard the two albums I have properly. The Jesu and Khoma are pretty good so far.
