| Great article or what you call it! Not much to extend it with! Nothing that I know about anyway... |

Great job again DaN! Killer article. Just fill it up every time you discover a unknown swedish metal-sweetie.  |

| Most reviews I've read on this site so far were all from that massive article. Very commendable! I obviously don't agree with you on all of them - Victim for example. Lousy record in my book. Also a bit more negative on a few other ones, Gotham City etc. but nothing so major. I do have a bit of a technical criticism though - it would look much better if all covers were next to their review. A table? |

| I intentionally designed it a bit 'loose' and didn't want to overstructure it, just to make it a bit different from the regular review pages. I put the covers in one big column more for decoration really. Thought it would be easy to connect the dots anyway, so.. |

I can't agree at all with Victim.Their single is very very good straight/down-to-earth metal like and personally it reminds me exactly nothing. |

This may sound a little bit weird but I can hear a lot of HANOI ROCKS in the chorus vocal melodies! I always think of "Don't Follow Me" when listening to Sergeant - Doubt
Edit. And Dawnwatcher vocalist reminds me of Duran Duran's singer  but please don't butcher me folks, I have nothing against Dawnwatcher! |

6) The Wildness 7'' is excellent IMO. 1st song is more speedy and metallic, but Dreams is also a great melodic melancholic tune and it's still metal. 4/5 for this one.

The Wildness single is very good indeed (you might figure out that I think so by watching my avatar;)) |

| There is a couple more platina rec. singles that's not on that list. ARENA 7'' Breaking Loose is a cool HM one. |

Great job DaN;
this article is really great; I'm searching a lot of these and some are very difficult. Also I found many of these and some are really great records: Onyx, Zone Zero, NJB, 220 volt, Silver Mountain, Treasure, Sacrifice, Sergeant, Ambush, Spitfire, Faith, Airborne, Shakespeare, warning Scratch and others. Was a difficult search but are great records. |
