JERUSALEM – Dancing On The Head Of The Serpent [Retroactive Records] 2CD, 2018
The 2018 Retroactive Records release is a 2-CD Set featuring one CD of the USA recording and one CD of the European version of the recording. Trust us – there is a huge difference between the two versions and both are awesome! We will say the European version is “dirtier” and several songs feel drier and grittier like classic AC/DC!

Arctic Winter – Plek Meddl 2018
“Plek Meddl” what a title! The new album of the German underground metal band Arctic Winter is not a comedy a la JBO. The visual presentation is quite stale, cover and back, but the disc is neatly recorded and has a fat booklet with band photos and all the lyrics. In addition, there is the juicy season of almost 70 minutes! In one direction, the troupe can not quite commit, you dance between Heavy Metal, Thrash and some Death (from the vocals).
