Majority Rule - Interviews With David Frost (2001)

There's a lot of people in the D.C.-area and Richmond and up and down the east coast that wishes this band never broke up. Tons of people still remember how insane Majority Rule shows were, whether they were playing the show with Darkest Hour, Pg99, City Of Caterpillar, Municipal Waste, whoever. Their music was a blend of extremely heavy with calming center to each song-- it was never quite heavy metal, never quite hardcore, never quite punk. It brought together an interesting audience and everyone went crazy for them whenever they played; the crowd was always whipped into a high-energy frenzy. They formed in 1996 and performed until 2004 with their second and last album, "Emergency Numbers," but "Interviews With David Frost" has something unforgettable about it and all these years after high school, I still blast this record every week.

Sepultura - Arise (1991)

The album that broke Sepultura through to many fans around the world and follow up to 1989's "Beneath The Remains." They had begun to experiment much more than before with sounds like classic Latin percussion elements, a more punk-ish edge and the pulsating sounds of industrial rock and metal that was gaining popularity at the same time around them. Not many Sepultura fans will choose other Sepultura albums over this one as their pick for the most ambitious and over all great release.

Behemoth - The Apostasy (2007)

The blasphemous follow-up to their "Demigod," you can expect more extremely intense heavy-as-and-fast-as-hell Polish blackened death here. This is their first album to also chart on the Billboard 200, which depending on who you ask, is good or bad. They put out a music for "At The Left Hand Ov God," which these days is not unusual for a metal band really but for this particular style and genre, having one of such high production when you aren't Amon Amarth is rare. Many song titles refer to Jesus and the desecration of; "Rome 64 C.E." refers to the city of Rome during the time when it had supposedly burned during the Great Fire of Rome, where the apostle Peter and others died, which becomes the direct reference point for "Slaying The Prophets Ov Isa." Isa is the Arabic word for Jesus. "Pazuzu" is about the Babylonian mythological creature of the same name, representative of the southwestern wind, the bearer of disease. "Christgrinding Avenue" refers to the Via Dolorosa, the street in Jerusalem where Jesus carried his cross on his way to the crucifixion as noted in the Stations of the Cross. Enjoy!

Judas Priest - A Touch Of Evil Live (2009)

The fifth live album by Judas Priest, and first since they reunited in 2003. They are in top form here, with great live versions of tunes like "Judas Rising," "Between The Hammer & The Anvil," "Eat Me Alive" and the epic "Painkiller." There are a few newer tracks on here, which in their defense, are the better songs off the disastrous "Nostradamus." This was released on July 14, 2009 and should motivate you to want to see them during this summer tour. Buy this then go buy concert tickets.

Death - The Sound Of Perseverance (1998)

Death's final studio album, thought of as more of a progressive and experimental album than their previous releases with most songs averaging in at the 6-minute mark. It also contains the vastly different and very emotional instrumental "Voice Of The Soul," and their brilliant rendition of Judas Priest's "Painkiller," which shows vocalist Chuck Schuldiner pushing his vocal limits seemingly combining his own voice with that of Rob Halford's, and even throwing in a very unexpected and rare clean vocal ending (and not in a bad way at all). Although most would say without hesitation that "Symbolic" is better, this is still an incredible album to go out on before they released a live album in 2001 to raise funds for Chuck Schuldiner's brain cancer treatment.

White Zombie - Astro Creep 2000 (1995)

The full title is actually "Astro Creep 2000: Songs Of Love, Destruction And Other Synthetic Delusions Of The Electric Head." Released in 1995, this album was a huge departure from their previous records and has a much heavier, much darker tone to it, also leaving behind the sleazy, mid-to-fast-paced rock 'n' roll metal sound that was present on 1992's "La Sexorcisto." "Astro Creep" had a more stable sound, a far more evil tune to it and the lyrics center more on the Satan, Hell, murder, zombies, and even drawing some inspiration from a movie called "Blade Runner," as presented on the Grammy-nominated "More Human Than Human."

Behemoth - Evangelion (2009)

This is coming out over a month before its street date, so understand the quality may be sub par and the ending sounds like it might have been cut off sooner than it is supposed to. I will certainly be buying this when it comes out August 11! If you liked Behemoth's previous two albums, you will most likely love this one too. It's right up the same alley with intense (tastefully) triggered drumming, demonic vocals and church-crushing guitar blasts.
