Apocrypha - Penance (Keep the Faith)

Good stuff. I've been meaning to check this out for a while. 7/10

Cauldron Born - Crusader

Great pick here. This song made me an instant fan the first time I heard it. Masterful riffs, great transitions, powerful, evocative vocals. Perfect heavy metal. I'm rating the album version because fuck half of this playlist. 10/10

Sadus - Oracle of Obmission

Perfect, lethal thrash. Points removed for being off theme. 7/10

Messiah - The Choice


This got quite a bit better on the second and third listen. There's definitely a certain charm about the vocalist like he's actually trying to sound nice and Christian. I'm trying to ignore the stupid lyrics. 7/10

Forsaken - Via Crucis (The Way of the Cross)

Scattered decent riffs, otherwise nah. 3/10

Manilla Road - Divine Victim

No idea why but The Deluge is by far my least listened to Road album from the classic era. Which probably means I've only listened to it a couple dozen times. Great song. 8/10

Trouble - Run to the Light

I fucking love the middle section of this song so much, easily one of my favourite Trouble songs for it. 8/10

October 31 - The Verdict

Solid. 6/10

Saracen - Horsemen of the Apocalypse

Clearly, I've made the wrong decision in not checking out Saracen. Killer song. 9/10

Icecross - Jesus Freaks

Not metal. Vaguely interesting. Eh. 4/10

Tristitia - Christianic Indulgence


Not terrible, just boring. I literally felt myself nodding off while this was playing. 4/10

Tourniquet - Ruminating Virulence

While I appreciate that it's not another low tier doom band, it's still low tier thrash. I feel nothing. 5/10

W.A.S.P - Babylon's Burning


Mildly impressed that W.A.S.P put this out in 2009. 4/10

Immolation - Nailed to Gold

Ah, Immolation. Good move putting this at the end, arg. 10/10
