I have an album called The Monster In Me from 2019 - is there another after that? 

How would you have it? Where did you hear of it, and why didn't you tell us about it??

No idea.  No idea .   Maybe not enough growls?         I haven't been posting a great deal period.....probably decided to wait until I found time to properly check out the album and never did.  I still haven't listened to the full album but must've liked what I sampled enough to get it.

The last 18 months is a bit of a blur but I have still tried to at least partially keep across rare albums that may be of interest to us.......sampling plenty and getting a few.  Just never got around to properly following up , listening/posting etc.......  I have a gigantic list somewhere around here .

You should assign each of us like 5 albums to listen to and review.

Almost all digital these days but I am so used to hunting things down that if I want a CD/album locally I can usually find it or know someone who can help. I have a decent network who will "copy a tape" for me when I cannot source something rare myself   Sometimes some nice person will send me a promo too , but happens less these days .

There is a local Ebay store that has it on CD

https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/CARTHAGODS-MONSTER-IN-ME-NEW-CD/293660315792?hash=item445f84d090:g:UQ4AAOSwFKtfGhK8&frcectupt=true

Looks like I got this particular one in mp3 via Amazon music.

[wolfking]

Wow, that store has 10 copies!    must have brought Australias whole supply.

I've used Amazon to purchase cd's before.  It's okay.

[gazinwales]

38 bucks for a CD is steep, I only pay that much for Japan imports.
That said music is pretty good, but that voice I actually thought it was Rick Altzi, an absolute dead-ringer for him.

Both Chad and I said the same thing.  I actually checked to see if it was him.  He also reminds me of David Draiman from Disturbed.

This is awful.

[jingle.boy]

Posting here, cuz it sure as hell doesn't belong in the Frontiers thread!  Nice to see they got a deal with a major label.

Danish Progressive Power Metal group PYRAMAZE has just inked a record deal in order to put out their next full-length studio album called “Epitaph” via AFM Records. The album will be released on November 13th – pre-order starts now.

Both AFM Records and PYRAMAZE are extremely happy about the deal and are looking forward to a strong, professional and hopefully long partnership. This new musical union offers good prospects for both parties – while PYRAMAZE found a partner that has great expertise working with a lot of successful Progressive and Power Metal artist such as Evergrey, Orden Ogan, Redemption, Brothers Of Metal and many more, the band offers a tremendous amount of musical and technical craftmanship and quality to add to the labels roster.

This album being the third one with their current lineup, PYRAMAZE continues to fuse their signature meld of memorable melodies, powerful riffs and soaring catchy vocals to keep listeners coming back for more - pleasing both old and new PYRAMAZE fans alike. This upcoming release will prove to be their most melodic and accessible creation to date, featuring guest appearances by Brittney Slayes of Unleash the Archers, and former PYRAMAZE singers Matt Barlow and Lance King.

The first single to appear very soon, so keep an eye on the band’s and label’s social media channels.

“Epitaph” is available here: https://shop.afm-records.de/pyramaze/

Fuckin' hell.  I'm not a father but that must be the most heartbreaking thing ever.  Awful.

Get in me!!

[Grappler]

Wow, guest spots by Matt Barlow, Lance King and Britney Slays?   

[wolfking]

If all 3 singers are on the one track, that's going to be epic.

[jingle.boy]

It was pretty epic when Barlow showed up at PPUSA a couple years back, and they did exactly this (Lance King was their for his record label to pimp his inventory in the merch room - I think he's there every year).

[jingle.boy]

Seems S-X have rescheduled the tour, almost 1-year to the date (it's literally the exact same date for Toronto).

WE are truly excited to announce that our 25th Anniversary Tour with Primal Fear and Firewind has been rescheduled to May/June 2021!
We truly can't wait to see you all in 2021!

Managed to pick up the new Primal Fear 2cd version yesterday.  Won't be able to listen til Sunday night but looking forward to cranking this one.

[jjrock88]

Curious to see what you think of it

Curious to see what you think of it

To be honest I haven't really liked the singles much I always seem to come round to them in the context of an album format.

[TAC]

My money is on "solid".

[jjrock88]

Reading all the responses on social media ....Pete Way had a huge impact on many people and musicians

  UFO

[jingle.boy]

My money is on "solid".

I thought it was rock solid.

[wolfking]

I Will Be Gone.

What the fuck is this doing in the middle of a Primal Fear album??

[jjrock88]

No good?

[wolfking]

Is Ralf saying 'bugger off' in Leave Me Alone?    WTF!?

[wolfking]

No good?

Pretty much the same, but really quite decent.  Halo was excellent and Banshee also ripped.  Infinity is a great closer, but I didn't really understand the outro. 

Just listening to the bonus disc now.  I'd say the first disc was 'really solid.'

[wolfking]

Damn, can't find lyrics on the net for Leave Me Alone. 

The lyrics on Second to None sound just as cheesy.  I guess I can see why they chose to put these tracks on a seperate disc to the same actual disc as the album. 

Second to None sounds like a heavier Vega song lol.
