MEGAHAWK DUANE II
It's an OG heavy metal group named October 31, if I have to explain why you should buy this bite my pinkish elephant cock. Reckoning recommendation.
Favorite track: Prelude / Lost City.

about
Comes with an 8-page booklet featuring all lyrics + the following bonus material:
-“Voyage To Infinity" 1996 demo
-"I Don't Know" Dwell Records tribute to Ozzy Ozbourne
-"Public Enema Number One" Dwell Records tribute to Iron Maiden
At long last, OCTOBER 31's classic debut album, "The Fire Awaits You", is seeing a long-overdue reissue, courtesy of the band's new label home, HELLS HEADBANGERS. Released in 1997 to a small yet fervent throng, OCTOBER 31's The Fire Awaits You saw DECEASED vocalist/drummer King Fowley team up with bassist Jim Hunter (WHILE HEAVEN WEPT, TWISTED TOWER DIRE) and guitarist Brian Williams (ex-OVERLORD) to create a rollicking ride of horror-themed heavy metal. Classic metal songwriting is the order of the day here, as the band ably sweep from speed metal surge to NWOBHM-inspired melodicism to occasionally an epic metal moment or two. At the forefront are King Fowley's clear 'n' commanding vocals, as the erstwhile DECEASED frontman decided to use a cleaner register that lost none of his trademark bite. Amended to this new edition is the band's first demo, Voyage to Infinity from '96, as well as tribute covers of IRON MAIDEN and OZZY OSBOURNE. Finally, "The Fire Awaits You"!

Coagulating Darkness
by Hellrippersupported by 12 fans who also own “The Fire Awaits You”
Pretty much the best Black/Speed Metal I've listened to since I learned about Evil Invaders and Vulture. Everything you'd love to be reminded of about this musical era is there. The influences are what you'd expect too: Motörhead, Venom, Bathory, early Slayer, Celtic Frost; aggressive vocals, tortured guitar solos, pounding drums; everything is fast, clear and still a little grimy, but without reverb cranked up to the max. Amazing band, amazing album.

Death's Crown Is Victory
by Solsticesupported by 12 fans who also own “The Fire Awaits You”
My favorite material from Solstice! Despite their amazing discography that lay before this that completely set the foundation, this in my opinion is where it all comes to a mighty peak. What an amazing emotional and powerful picture painted in such a short amount of time.

This band took the ideas of Candlemass and made Epic DOOM Metal even better. I can not praise this band enough! This album is absolutely KILLER!
