Yes, its avaliable in SG already. Most places selling for $19.90 but HMV's price is $17.90 and that 2 disc Essential Maiden is going for $14.90 only. lol I think the 2 disc is the better buy but less tracks from the 80s.

BTW, Aces High is a live track, right after track 1 live intro. Track 1 and 2 are from
Live After Death.

Yeah this compilation got nothing attractive for Maiden fans. All the songs any fan will already have them. Buy is just buy for the sake of buying and the cover art only.

Just bought Cavalera Conspiracy yesterday. Quite excellent if you're into Sepultura/Soulfly.

[deathan9el]

de cavalera bros at werk.
interesting.

meanwhile...soulfly's latest album "Conquer" out ard late july/aug.

Its very good. Max's growling like getting more aggressive and deadly!

Song like Inflikted, Sanctuary and Bloodbrawl are excellent. 'Must Kill' is another outstanding track.

Hmm........I dun own any Soulfly albums, maybe will get this when its out.

 

[icyhell]

i must say i dun really like cavalera. they sort of likie trying to emulate sepultura all over again but not really getting there.

lol they ARE Sepultura. After Max left, Sepultura isn't the same anymore.

 

[Vittra]

The thing with sepultura is that after Chaos AD...they aren't the same anymore.
Choosing to be more Nu-Metal instead.
I mean on roots; Johnathan from Korn was invited for guest vocalist.
To me, Max was leading Sepultura in a down spiral.
Him leaving is actually for the better.
Look at Soulfly / Nailbomb...its band with Max which is not exactly progressing anywhere.
Green is actually not a bad vocalist. Just have to give him a chance and not read too much into reviews and throw everything you know about Sepultura out of the window.

The thing is there are many era to Sepultura's sound.
You must be referring to the Root's sound ya.
Imho...thats not exactly their peak.

 

[icyhell]

i would say chaos era is still the best. im definitely not a big fan of cavalera right now.

Sepultura's sound is constantly evolving from Morbid Visions right to Roots, every album has a different sound and feel. I have Nation and I think its so so only.

BTW, I'm not a fan of Sepultura or Max, just like their music and I find CC's 1st album is good.

Why dun you guys give CC a chance then? But music is subjective, what I think is good u might not like.

Is Testament good? I always heard of their name but never own or heard their songs before.

Disturb? lol I tot you refering to Deicide initially. Alsonever heard of their music before.

 

[deathan9el]

testament? well...i dunno..to each his own liking ...i guess.
not a big fan either.

but pretty much in de same veins wif exodus/'tallica...
juz click on their webbie...sample a track from their latest album.
mayb u might like it...mayb u dont.

 

[icyhell]

testament is really good. definitely beats metallica now anyway. totally old school thrash.

 

[ninja_tuner]

yeah Testament kicksass!!

they're one of my fav thrash bands...especially when skolnick's around

 

[afbug1]

Wah u all say until like that. Dun want to buy also cannot liao.

 

[InnocentBlood]

I still feel that the only Maiden compilation worth buying is the Best of the Beast 2CD set, though I did break down and buy Ed Hunter many years ago
