Year: 1989

1. At The Graves

7. Something Weird
8. Victimized
9. Let It Be Done
10. Cremation

4th album by King Diamond and the 2nd part of the sequel, following 'Them'. It is just all-out speed metal at its very best. It is an absolute gem that is a fantastic combination of King's high-pitched vocals, Andy La Rocque and Pete Blakk's shred fest and the amount of rhythm and tempo changes in the songs.

Cruachan - The Middle Kingdom

Genre: Heavy/Folk
Country: Ireland
Year: 2000

1. A Celtic Mourning
2. Celtica (Voice Of The Morrigan)
3. The Fianna
4. A Druids Passing
5. Is Fuair An Chroí
6. Cattle Raid Of Cooley (Taín Bó Cuailgne)
7. The Middle Kingdom
8. Óró Sé Do Bheatha Abhaile
9. Unstabled (Steeds Of Macha)
10. The Butterfly

2nd album by Cruachan. After an impressive debut of black/folk metal, this one was rather a disappointment for the blacksters. Here, the black metal moments are rare and a more simpler heavy/folk approach conquers. Nevertheless, this is a solid album, with nice guitarwork, active celtic music and a full use of folk instruments.
