Storm Studios | Molon Lave (GR)

Molon Lave was the original name for Storm Studios which was responsible for a number of Hellenic black and death metal classics. I personally enjoy a lot of these releases. My favourite album from the below list would have to be His Majesty at the Swamp which is simply untouchable. Go Underground Record Shop. Storm Studio was in the building above in an old apartment. Owned and operated by George Zacharopoulos, George is still the bassist and vocalist in Necromantia and Thou Art Lord. He was also keyboardist (Morbid) for Rotting Christ during their most prolific period. This list is by no means exhaustive either. It's mashed together from this post along with Metal Archives, Discogs and zine referencing.

Glöster Gladiattor (CO) Glöster Gladiattor

Colombia produced some utterly insane proto-death/black metal in the 80's however this EP is something else. When you think of Colombian EP's the ones that come to mind are Astaroth , Herpes and of course the bizarre Nemesis but this release is as illusive as it is interesting. Formed in 1984 and disbanded in 1988 this is the only known release although they had several other tracks. Glöster Gladiattor played at "Batalla de las Bandas" in 1985 alongside other bands in Medellín like Spol , Mierda , Danger , Excalibur , Parabellum , Lasser and Kraken according to Metal-Archives. Their setlist was Heavy Metal es la Solución , Fariseos , Caos y Destrucción , and Terror en mi Cerebro . This independently released 7" was pressed on the thinnest yellow toilet paper ever manufactured. Minimal effort was put into this release but the music... it's a hybrid mix of Reencarnacion and Nemesis . Really good eclectic Colombian maniac metal. In terms of quality, ...

Weakling (US) Dead as Dreams

Weakling's Dead as Dreams which was released in 2000, however largely written throughout 1998, can be described as the seminal USBM album of its generation. Their one and only release it is an exceptional album and one with no peer. Weakling can be best likened to DSBM however their style is somewhat different. Piercing vocals by John Gossard are the notable resemblance but their musical structure doesn't "follow" traditional black metal. Dead as Dreams LP insert The album ranges from a winding build up to an unrelenting assault. It takes you on a journey with highs and lows then unease to intensity. The album isn't one that is easily accessible or digestible on the first listen. I find myself listening to this album in solitude and in its entirety, that is, from start to finish without interruption. A revisit is performed once every blue moon and I can assure you I find something new every time I listen to it. The album isn't without its ...
