  • The Record Store Love Affair

    by Rue Morgue Records on August 11, 2018

    Having grown up as a child of the seventies, I got to experience the magic of the record store (and music!) firsthand! With a healthy diet of HR Puffnstuff, Batman, Star Wars, Evel Knievel and Saturday morning cartoons… the seventies was the absolute best decade to be a kid and a junior about to discover […]

KISS Hotter Than Hell 50th Anniversary Picture Dis KISS Hotter Than Hell 50th Anniversary Picture Disc 500 Numbered Copies #406 of 500 The limited edition KISS picture discs are truly a work of art! Incredibly rare and hard to purchase as they are limited to 500 copies worldwide. The cover art has been meticulously reproduced and given a holographic sheen. (Hard to see in these photos). Thick as hell vinyl picture disc and a glorious two sided poster of what some argue is KISS heaviest record! No doubt it is KISS’ rawest sounding slab of goodness! A raw, hungry band out to kill! Yeah, KISS at its absolute meanest! Not for sale. Personal collection! #kiss #hotterthanhell #50thanniversary #vinyl #picturedisc #genesimmons #paulstanley #petercriss #acefrehley
THE 20 GREATEST METAL ALBUMS OF ALL TIME! 16: Sc THE 20 GREATEST METAL ALBUMS OF ALL TIME! 16: Scorpions – Blackout (1982) The NWOBHM (New Wave Of British Heavy Metal) was in full force when the Scorpions released their breakthrough album, Blackout. German lads Scorpions would jump onto that bandwagon even if they were from across the pond. Metal was again generating interest, fuelled by the UK scene and what was about to happen in the USA. It was an album that may never have seen the light of day, as lead singer Klaus Meine had completely lost his voice and required surgery to fix his damaged vocal cords. (Demos of the album feature Don Dokken on lead vocals!) The Scorpions had great success with this album, which launched them into the big time globally. By Blackout's release, the Scorpions had been on the scene for nearly 17 years. The band had paid its dues and was ready to enjoy the platinum success that Blackout afforded them. A sure sign of the album’s glory is that the band continued to play most of this album live for many years after its release. Distinctive vocals, broken English aside, killer riffs, amazing lead breaks over some catchy-as-hell Metal, and you’ve got a classic on your hands. Other contenders: Scorpions – Animal Magnetism

THE 20 GREATEST METAL ALBUMS OF ALL TIME! 17: Ma THE 20 GREATEST METAL ALBUMS OF ALL TIME! 17: Manowar – Battle Hymns (1982) You at the back! You, yes, you! Stop laughing! Yes, they wear loincloths. And carry plastic swords. I hear you. Loud and clear. But… strip that all back, slap the record on (any one of their records), and what have you got? You’ve got pure balls to the wall, METAL! And they believe in it! Oh, do they believe! They signed their contracts in their blood. (KISS poured their blood into the red ink for their 1977 Marvel comic book. Bill Aucoin managed both KISS and Manowar, so we know where this blood fetish came from!) They play concerts (in Europe only, which is their only market) to maximum volume and capacity. I’d still kill to see them here in Oz. Man, oh man, what a trip that would be! Manowar has produced a fantastic body of work throughout their career. Battle Hymns, however, left a lasting impression. Other contenders: Manowar – Into Glory Ride, Manowar – Hail To England

THE 20 GREATEST METAL ALBUMS OF ALL TIME! 18: Qu THE 20 GREATEST METAL ALBUMS OF ALL TIME! 18: Queensrÿche – Rage For Order (1986) “Wait a minute! Don’t you mean Queensrÿche – Operation Mindcrime? What sort of malarkey is this?” It’s as if a million voices all at once just spoke. I hear you… But, for me, Rage For Order was the one that completely blew me away. Queensrÿche were the Metal Press’ media darlings at the time. They burst into the scene with a killer demo tape that became the 1982 EP Queensrÿche. By 1984, they were already appearing on the covers of Metal magazines and released the amazing ‘The Warning’ album. It was a fantastic slab of tunes ruined by a poor mix, but enough to get 5-star reviews the world over regardless. By the next album, Rage For Order, the band had matured into an incredible, versatile, and original band. Rage For Order features a band willing to experiment and take chances. It is progressive and multi-layered, with all manner of sounds bordering on Industrial and electronic influences mixed with traditional Metal guitars, bass, and drums. It is an epic album that is both grandiose and majestic, and the band’s label, EMI, was fully behind it. So much so that the label insisted the band take on an almost New Romantic image, which was met with a huge backlash by fans. It was a wrong move and alienated many, no matter how good the music was. To me, Rage For Order stayed on my turntable for a long time and was also the very first compact disc I ever bought. I often return to it these days, and it is easily one of the band’s finest offerings. Other contenders: Queensrÿche – Operation Mindcrime

THE 20 GREATEST METAL ALBUMS OF ALL TIME! 19: Pa THE 20 GREATEST METAL ALBUMS OF ALL TIME! 19: Pantera – Vulgar Display Of Power (1992) Power! Pure and simple! Power! It hits you from the opening boom of Mouth For War and finally lets you go somewhere at the tail-end of Hollow. Pantera are a band that could not work without even one member of the band missing. It is on that sad note, that Pantera in any other form, could not, should not – ever perform again. With the shocking death of guitarist Dimebag, the chance of Pantera every performing again, were now gone. Let it rest. Leave it be and just remember what they left us. Vulgar Display Of Power stands as Pantera’s defining hour. So ferocious. So brutal. So classic. A relentless slab of blunt force trauma. The soundtrack to a brawl. The sound of bone meeting bone. The sound of a fist pumping in the air in protest. This is it. Brutal!
