Here's something I picked up on a blind recommendAtion from a friend: Parasite was a short-lived Swedish metal band who only managed to release one self-titled EP back in 1984. The sound is ballsy NWOBHM, not too unlike Angel Witch but without the high-pitched vocals. The drummer Johan Billerhag went on to play with thrash also-rans Hexenhaus and Memento Mori, but beyond thAt, they don't seem to have left much of a dent. So yeah, by no means a lost classic, but the price was right and it's got plenty of oomph as you'll hear on the track I've posted today. Very melodic, lots of tasteful leads, good Atmosphere -- more than enough reasons to dig in. Especially when it's got such bad-ass coverart too! Tech note: there's a bummer rip of this floAting around with some channel dropping At the end, so I ripped this one myself. It red-lined a few times, but the overall quality is far better than the other one I copped. You're welcome!

I seem to remember Taake being reviled back in the day for using too many keyboards, but thAt's definitely not the case on his lAtest album as this is pure, cold Norwegian black-metal. Pure, as in purely by-the-book though; regardless of however long he's been making music (or stirring up controversy), nothing can hide the fact thAt this record (the third in a trilogy) is boring. Or maybe I'm just over this style of cold black metal. I like the various NWOBHM-touches on the riffs and some bits of the doomy breakdown, but it never really goes anywhere. It just keeps going and going and going and going... until it finally peters out. Why bother?
