Holy Grails

[skeptik]

As Metalheads (or whatever more or less meaningless term you would prefer), we all have those certain rare albums that consistently elude us, either because they sell for far too much, or because they simply cannot be found. These are the Holy Grails of Metal, and especially for younger fans, they are of almost unlimited number. So what are your Holy Grails, and which ones have you actually been able to track down? Some of mine include:

Sabbat (UK) - Dreamweaver
Heathen - Victims Of Deception
Demolition Hammer - Tortured Existence
Satan - Court In The Act
Pariah - Blaze Of Obscurity
Jag Panzer - Ample Destruction
Saint Vitus - Hallow's Victim
Sadus - Swallowed In Black
Slaughter - Strappado
Poison - Into The Abyss

Some that I've been able to track down either through re-releases or paying stupid prices include:

Demolition Hammer - Epidemic Of Violence
Sadus - Chemical Exposure
Cadaver - ...In Pains
Artillery - Fear Of Tomorrow
Artillery - Terror Squad
Artillery - By Inheritance
Baphomet - Dead Shall Inherit
Solstice - Lamentations
Solstice - New Dark Age
Saint Vitus - C.O.D.
The Lord Weird Slough Feg - The Lord Weird Slough Feg
Kat - the first three albums
Dark Angel - We Have Arrived

I'm still waiting to confirm these, among others:

Saint Vitus - Saint Vitus
Saint Vitus - Die Healing
Manilla Road - The Deluge
Pariah - The Kindred

[Consuming Impulse]

I've been having a hard time finding Artillery in stores and Burzum.

i found 3 burzum records in a record store once. det som engang var, filosofem, and daudi barlds (they had 2 copies of the daudi barlds album)

 

[unknown]

Yeah, all I've seen are Daudi Baldrs and that other ambient release he did whose name escapes me at the moment

 

[Consuming Impulse]

keep looking i found their masterpiece... filosofem.

You're not going to find Artillery... the first two albums were reissued by Axe Killer like a decade ago or some shit and are not that mindfuckingly hard to find on ebay, but expect to pay more than an average CD. Actually, Evil Legend Records has them in stock right now, so get on that before they're gone (if they're not already). I think he had them for $15 each. By Inheritance was never reissued and is a bitch to find for a reasonable price (which I didn't find, btw).

 

[Consuming Impulse]

i found a saint vitus live album in the same record store i found the burzum records.

[cookiecutter]

Any of the Hypocrisy EP's

Incantation-Onward to Golgotha

They're probably on ebay, but I haven't seen them anywhere else.

It's nice to see you borrow some topics from violentlyoldschool.

Anyway personnaly I haven't been able to find those for now...well I could probably find them but at ridiculous prices.

Sabbat (UK) - Dreamweaver
The Lord Weird Slough Feg - The Lord Weird Slough Feg
Manilla Road - The Deluge
Immolation - Stepping on Angels...Before Dawn

Pretty much what I can think of right now.
