Shit I'll have to hit up those Tokyo Blade ones when I'm not poor
I've come to prefer those spartan reissue sets (eg these), I have the Testament, Saxon and Dream Theater ones.
Absolutely and a good way to conserve shelf space (which has become a recent obsession of mine). Btw, is this the one you have?

That's exactly what I have. I think I got it for like 18 dollars on Amazon when it was issued and now it's going for like 40 on Discogs lmao
I just checked and I got it for a bit over 21 dollars. This is discogs as of now:

Opeth
Deicide
My lack of listening to Opeth needs to be remedied.
Just found out about this. Pretty good album, thought it's worth sharing. From Karthago records.
Copy and paste:
MEPHISTO „Mephisto" - Cover, Tracklist, Release Date: 26th January 2018
The release date of the of the album „Mephisto“ by the German Power/Speed Metal Band MEPHISTO on CD is January 26th, 2018. The pre-order phase will start on January 12th, 2018 in our webshop. The album will be released in a limited Edition of 500 copies (handnumbered), with 6 Bonustracks, certificate and hologram.
In the year 1988 the classic mideighties Heavy Metal in the style of GRAVESTONE, NOISEHUNTER, STORMWITCH and many others was already threatened from the harder wave of Speed and Thrash Metal. So MEPHISTO took a bit of the faster early HELLOWEEN, a bit more of BLIND GUARDIAN and mixed it with their own ideas and the typical German trademarks.
The musical ability was high and in comparison, both albums are more or less equal strong, but the first album was released only in micro quantity, so it is the more rare of both and finally with this edition a gap will be filled in many collections!
