Since the UM servers are hitting an all time low with their response and timeouts, I'm just going to resurface this thread for passers-by with our latest uploads...

you know what, I'm not one of those Americans who sees things from only a cloistered, America First perspective...but sometimes I wonder, as has Brave Words' Martin Popoff, how many people are turned off by a CD title, or the cover art...for instance, Helloween, a band with an influential career, many power metal technicians flowing through their ranks, but c'mon, Rabbit Don't Come Easy? Pink Bubbles Go Ape? I realize that some things might get lost in the translation, but my god, it boggles the mind.

And as for cover art, has anyone seen the new metallica cover for St. anger, on their official site? Instantly vaulted to the ranks of the worst album covers of all time, I kid you not. As someone on the nevermore board said, the alternative title should be "Fisting Firemen."

It's got to be a German thing. Remember these people worship David Hasslehoff for his singing ability.

It's a scrotum for sure.

After reading "gugs review, I really want to hear the new Helloween. Is it out yet?

I find it interesting that Weikath blames the commercial failure of The Dark Ride on Roland Grapow and Uli Kusch, considering Weikath is the one who penned such atrocities as "Windmill."

The Dark Ride is one of my all time fave Helloween cds.

I think the new Helloween comes out at the end of May....

I was browsing through Nuclear Blast's audio section yesterday and noticed they have a song from the new one, if you're interested...

The two albums I really want to hear from this recent update are Porcupine Tree and Daylight Dies.
