NIGHT IN GALES - HOW TO EAT A SCYTHE

In 2011, Night In Gales resurrected a spotty career with one of the most compelling melodic death metal albums of the year. This is a remarkable feat considering it had been 10 years since their last full length. This Barking Chicken Production takes a look at the band's full body of work to sort the moments of brilliance from the failed experiments. The end result is a diverse collection of neck snappers that together form a career highlight. Go.

SOUNDGARDEN - TOY BOX

Soundgarden's early Stooges/MC5-meets-Zeppelin/Sabbath sound is a dark, murky, buzzing cauldron of noise that simultaneously redirects and pays tribute to heavy metal. The best moments are startling fusions of classic metal, punk rock, and psychedelia of the fuzz guitar variety, plus the local flavor of Green River and the Melvins. The difference was, Soundgarden were better songwriters than their peers and were able to maintain order right up to the edge of chaos. Their feel for memorable riffs and hooks lends greater power to both the rockers and the creepy, dirge-like slow numbers. When separated out from the filler, the numerous highlights show why Soundgarden had such an enormous impact on the development of grunge and stoner rock.

DECEASED - KILL FOR THE DEAD

Criminally underrated, Deceased was spawned during metal’s rapid evolution from NWOBHM to death metal during the 1980’s. Using only the purest ingredients, Deceased has distilled traditional metal and punk into a thrashing death metal concoction that is unique yet familiar. A loyalty to classic twin guitar heroics is coupled with intense dedication to primitive extremity. The delivery is Lovecraftian insanity as tales of horror unfold. All of this is wrapped up in a package so true to metal that drummer and vocalist King Fowley rusts when it rains. ‘Kill For The Dead’ focuses on studio material released between 1997 and 2011.

AMORPHIS – ELEGY II: WEAVING THE INCANTATION

You have waited 15 years for this. Although Amorphis’s tapestry of folk, death, doom and progressive rock may not sound as novel as it did in 1996, this Barking Chicken Production packages recent material in a collection that can stand proudly alongside ‘Tales from the Thousand Lakes’ and ‘Elegy’.

MOE. - MOE.SAIC

MOE. goes BIG. Big songs. Big jams. Big shows. For a compilation to properly reflect their magic, it must capture the large scope of their performance. Enter moe.saic > 10 discs worth of live moe. stretching out and going with the flow. Rather than a compilation of songs, this is a compilation of segments each made up of several songs and segues. These tracks are not produced and barely edited. Free range. High volume. No artificial ingredients.

ENSLAVED - MARDRAUM ETHICA ODINI

Although they were released 10 years apart, Enslaved career highlights 'Mardraum – Beyond the Within' (2000) and 'Axioma Ethica Odini' (2010) are cut from the same cloth. The synergy created by a mashup of these two albums brings the energy to a whole new level. Two great tastes that taste great together!

DARKTHRONE - FENRIZ

If there was a Museum of Old Metal, Darkthrone’s Fenriz would be first in line for the curator position. Perhaps this quote would find its way onto his application: “My motto is the one who’s heard the most music wins. And I haven’t met anyone who can beat me yet.” The metal closest to his blackened heart is from the late 70s and early 80s and he has been an outspoken critic of modern metal. An avid collector and list maker, Fenriz will often share information on his new discoveries in liner notes and on the web. He will also contribute a "Band of the Month" feature to the Swedish metal magazine Close-Up beginning with the May 2011 issue. He is a legend of metal both as a performer and a listener. So, if he were to take the whole spotlight on a Kiss-style solo album, what would we get? The answer can be downloaded below. It came easy because the songwriting has been clearly divided between Fenriz and Nocturno Culto over the last several Darkthrone albums. If I could only release this in vinyl . . .
