With the ‘Cirith Ungol’ association with the artwork on those MM books… I definitely reckon ‘Eternal Champion’ got their name from there! All the best for 2024 Simon!🤘🏻
Every time I watch these videos, I am absolutely shocked at the prices of new and used CDs/vinyl there. Even when converting to US dollars the prices are just astronomical compared to what I find here in the states for similar items.
Yeah you gotta factor in shipping costs and rent, but for used CDs some shops are cheaper than others. Walking into a retail store and finding a $5 gem is unlikely to happen, but I still find stuff that price at markets etc.
2:10 I work at a grocery store , 3 friggin times I heard that stupid Christmas song in a 5 hour shift. Was hoping the speakers would break at any moment
Definitely would have grabbed that Barathrum, seems like a few decent dig spots over there. Always loved the blue I.N.R.I cover, might have to pick up an extra copy one day. Looking forward to the aoty list. Cheers✌🏼
The reason for the two inserts in the Cryptic Shift record is, one is in English and the other one has the American translation, hahaha... "Planet Munich"? Did I hear that right? Moorcock must have seen the future, just google pictures of the soccer stadium in Munich, a propper UFO that has landed at the gates of planet Munich. Dread Sovereign is Primordial´s Alan with his Doom Metal project, not that bad.
Hi Simon!!! this was a fun one, you have a couple of cool place to spend your hard earned money......Tracy Lords?? i think i know that name. Utopia seems the place to go!!! Lots of cool things and glad to see you end up picking Picture's "Eternal Dark" cool and underrated 80's dutch band, that's one in my endless wantlist, lol..... cheers and be well
Traci Lords did lots of films, but in her early career she did adult films. And when I say early I mean, she lied about her age, and that tape I found is banned in every country.. except somehow it got rated here! I guess they didn't know at the time lol.
I paid 6 or 7 Euros for my copy but the copy in your footage is a 2007 double CD reissue, the only version with the album title in largeer print on the cover, so it's extra special I guess
Malformed on extremely rotten productions they put out a second can't wait to see how a full length will sound like by them .pathologist albums next year extremely rotten productions doing the cassettes and he might be doing a second round of the lps next year they did the cds with the original mix
@ExplosiveAction cool I have the of the second album on lp from extremely rotten productions and the cd is on the way to me . they did the debut but I missed it so hopefully I can get the debut on cd and the lp once it drops also get both albums on cassette as well
As a kid watching all these American snowy Christmas movies and shows, I never understood why it was so different! Christmas is beaches and BBQs over here!
"I'm going to have Moorcok" .... "I picked up this seven inch" .... ayyyyoooooo.
Great video once again. Malformed sounds pretty good.
I live to give lol
Awesome trip 'bout town. Was very fun seeing the area.
Thanks for coming along with me!

Absolutely for sure!
Thank you for the video Simon! Cheers mate!
You're welcome!

That Malformed sounds up my alley.
It's actually heavily US influenced I would say, a bunch of Cannibal Corpse in this as well as the usual Finnish sounds.
@@ExplosiveAction Just had a listen, wish it was slower and murkier. Not to worry.
Dread sovereign kind of sounds like Iron Maiden’s first album, first album was put out in 2017.
Moorcock & a 7”? Wow 😯
Bit of an all over the place haul, for sure!
2:10

Oh I bet! Hahaha!
Sister Dearest with Traci Lords and Tom Byron. I doubt that will see a Blu-Ray release anytime soon. ;)
Yeah I doubt it will lol
Definitely would have grabbed that Barathrum, seems like a few decent dig spots over there. Always loved the blue I.N.R.I cover, might have to pick up an extra copy one day. Looking forward to the aoty list. Cheers✌🏼
Cheers mate! I've tried Barathrum a bit and the black and roll sound just doesn't grab me unfortunately
@@ExplosiveAction I hear that, maybe try some older material.
Cryptic Shift are great. Cool video, Simon. I still need to listen to Malformed. They have a new EP, too.
Yep I need to get that mini LP too now, so I guess an Extremely Rotten Productions order is needed!
Picture - Eternal Dark - is excellent.....
Nice vid mate. Glad you didn't incriminate yourself by filming you buying that Traci Lords video!
I left it where I found it rofl. If it wasn't Betamax, well..
I was curious about the Ebony Lake cd, so I checked them out on RUclips. Good gravy, that was freakin’ horrible.
Yeah It's not going to be for everyone lol. But the late 90s Cacophonous often works for me.
Great video Simon, #1 favorite album of this year?
You'll have to wait for my Top Albums video on the last day of the month!
Great video!! Alsso, get into Barathrum!!!! Its the best blacknroll you could ask for, get Legion of Perkele!!!!!
I think that's my problem! I don't like black n'roll haha. I will give the one you mention a listen though!

You certainly did, Planet Munich! Are you its Emperor? Haha.
@@ExplosiveAction Not by now, hehehe...

@@ExplosiveAction hahaha.... you're right she was very talented.
Was that used Bolt Thrower CD priced upwards of AUD $40?!
Nevermind, I just checked Discogs, that pressing seems to be highly sought after.
Yep AU$40 is not terrible for an OG press CD to be honest, given that AU$30 is the price of a new one
Someone please call the cops, there's a robbery 😄
I paid 6 or 7 Euros for my copy but the copy in your footage is a 2007 double CD reissue, the only version with the album title in largeer print on the cover, so it's extra special I guess
Morecock would be a great death metal band name lol
Probably already a goregrind one lol
@@ExplosiveAction indeed lol 🤘🤘
Avant-garde gothic black metal that features Fabio. Makes me want to vomit not going to lie 😂
Oh yeah it's total cringe late 90s Cocophonous haha.
Great and funny video. I will definitely check out that ebonylake
Haha thanks! Yeah it's an odd late 90s time capsule
Frankly I'm surprised you're not a DRI fan.
Crossover has yet to grab me.
@@ExplosiveAction Take your time. It will be there waiting.
@@benng4376 that's what happened with pre-1985 straight heavy metal bands. Many are starting to click now.
Sláine is pronounced as Slaw-nay xD .
Of course it is lol.
Malformed on extremely rotten productions they put out a second can't wait to see how a full length will sound like by them .pathologist albums next year extremely rotten productions doing the cassettes and he might be doing a second round of the lps next year they did the cds with the original mix
I love Pathologist, had the original CDs since almost when they came out, got them around 1998 I think.
@ExplosiveAction cool I have the of the second album on lp from extremely rotten productions and the cd is on the way to me . they did the debut but I missed it so hopefully I can get the debut on cd and the lp once it drops also get both albums on cassette as well
It's always strange to see that there are people in the world celebrating christmas in summer 😅
