I buy nearly all my CDs and DVDs at Discorder from Holland. They have a wicked collection of metal. Nice people also with good service. What I also do is when they do not have something in their webshop' date=' I ask them to find it for me. Most of the time, they find it. Site: Discorder - Online CD and DVD webshop
When I looked around and clicked on a Motörhead CD; despair! [ATTACH=CONFIG]869[/ATTACH]

JB HiFi also have a pretty rubbish selection if one is after metal cds (at least in my experience). Great when you're first getting into the music and want well known bands but not-so-much if seeking Nile' date= Orphaned Land, Mayhem, Sentenced and so on.
Who are these strange bands you speak of? Pray tell, what kind of music do they play?

I usually just get mine off Amazon. This way I can find something new and super cheap, and have the free two day shipping due to Amazon Prime (since I'm a student). If I can't find whatever I'm looking for on Amazon, or by a simple Google search, I'll usually ask one of my friend's to keep an eye out for it, and if they see it, snatch it up and I'll repay them later.

Hello :) just thought I'd say that we don't take troll behaviour kindly, so kindly piss off unless you would rather settle this over a good old spot of croquet and some afternoon tea, in which case I would be very happy to oblige.

Guys, take it easy on Glen Benton. He's got a hard life. It sucks that he chose the wrong career, but he can't do anything else, so he has to pay to surround himself with talented people, and even then he can't seem to write a decent album. He spends most of his time driving a minivan around Florida and wishing he'd been a better dad so he was on good terms with his son. To top it all off, he isn't even a real Satanist... his life is a joke and he's got just enough brain cells left to realize it. I'd imagine that he's only reaching out to us because he's been spanked too many times over at Metalsucks. I feel that our community should embrace him with open arms.

I'm actually all my cds nowadays at shows and especially festivals at those metalmarkets. Not a big fan of ordering them on the internet eventhough I did that a lot. We don't have local shops around here. In my town there isn't even a single cd store anymore! (bankrupt and shit because they were too expensive, eventhough they blame it on the internet)

Record stores are a dying breed, but I still love checking them out. I buy stuff any place I can, shows, online, record stores, etc... Sent from my HTC PH39100 using Tapatalk 2

Ban plus the lAbels. Too I love cm distro. I got a exclusive stuff. From there
I've never ordered from them directly. The distros I've bought the most from are Dark Descent and The End Records, but I don't do many big label/distro orders. Sent from my HTC PH39100 using Tapatalk 2

The End pissed me off, their shipping warehouse is a twenty minute walk from my apartment but they sent my order through a holding facility in Jersey and it took almost two weeks to get here, for more money.

    • Sacred Reich "Awakening"

      MacabreEternal posted a blog entry in Album Reviews,

      Whichever tier of thrash metal you consigned Sacred Reich back in the 80's/90's they still had their moments.  "Ignorance" & "Surf Nicaragura" did a great job of establishing the band, whereas "The American Way" just got a little to comfortable and accessible (the title track grates nowadays) for my ears.  A couple more records better left forgotten about and then nothing for twenty three years.  2019 alone has now seen three releases from Phil Rind and co.  A live EP, a split EP with Iron Reagan and now a full length.

      Notable addition to the ranks for the current throng of releases is former Machine Head sticksman, Dave McClean.  Love or hate Machine Head, McClean is a more than capable drummer and his presence here is felt from the off with the opening and title track kicking things off with some real gusto.  'Divide & Conquer' and 'Salvation' muddle along nicely, never quite reaching any quality that would make my balls tingle but comfortable enough.  The looming build to 'Manifest Reality' delivers a real punch when the song starts proper.  Frenzied riffs and drums with shots of lead work to hold the interest.


      There's a problem already though (I know, I am such a fucking mood hoover).  I don't like Phil's vocals.  I never had if I am being honest.  The aggression to them seems a little forced even when they are at their best on tracks like 'Manifest Reality'.  When he tries to sing it just feels weak though ('Salvation') and tracks lose real punch.  Give him a riffy number such as 'Killing Machine' and he is fine with the Reich engine (probably a poor choice of phrase) up in sixth gear.  For every thrashy riff there's a fair share of rock edged, local bar act rhythm aplenty too.

      Let's not poo-poo proceedings though, because overall I actually enjoy "Awakening".  It is stacked full of catchy riffs that are sticky on the old ears.  Whilst not as raw as perhaps the - brilliant - artwork suggests with its black and white, tattoo flash sheet style design it is enjoyable enough.  Yes, 'Death Valley' & 'Something to Believe' have no place here, saved only by Arnett and Radziwill's lead work but 'Revolution' is a fucking 80's thrash heyday throwback to the extent that if you turn the TV on during it you might catch a new episode of Cheers!

    • Overkill "The Wings of War"

      MacabreEternal posted a blog entry in Album Reviews,

      Full length number 19 from overkill certainly makes a splash in the energy stakes, I mean there's some modern thrash bands that are a good two decades younger than Overkill who can only hope to achieve the levels of spunk that New Jersey's finest produce here.  That in itself is an achievement, for a band of Overkill's stature and reputation to be able to still sound relevant four decades into their career is no mean feat.  Even in the albums weaker moments it never gets redundant and the energy levels remain high.  There's a real sense of a band in a state of some renewed vigour, helped in no small part by the addition of Jason Bittner on drums.  The former Flotsam & Jetsam skinsman is nothing short of superb throughout "The Wings of War" and seems to have squeezed a little extra out of the rest of his peers.

      The album kicks of with a great build to opening track "Last Man Standing" and for the first 4 tracks of the album the Overkill crew stomp, bash and groove their way to a solid level of consistency.  The lead work is of particular note and Blitz sounds as sneery and scathing as ever.  The album is well produced and mixed too with all parts of the thrash machine audible as the five piece hammer away at your skull with the usual blend of chugging riffs and infectious anthems.  


      There are weak moments as mentioned but they are more a victim of how good the strong tracks are.  In it's own right "Distortion" is a solid enough - if not slightly varied a journey from the last offering - but it just doesn't stand up well against a "Bat Shit Crazy" or a "Head of a Pin".  As the album draws to a close you get the increasing impression that the last few tracks are rescued really by some great solos and stomping skin work which is a shame because trimming of a couple of tracks may have made this less obvious.
