Slander's excellent "Resolution Defiance" is the final piece of Stormspell's late 2017 release slate. Fans of the NWOBHM and/or traditional '80s metal in general need to hear this one!

New entry:
I dusted off W.A.S.P.'s Helldorado this past week for the first time in a good long while, and I said to myself "Self, this album would be a damn good candidate for a new blog," so it was done.

I don't collect vinyl but every time I'm in my local Goodwill scrounging for CDs I always flip through the moldy old LPs just to see what kind of weird sh** will turn up. Here are a half dozen album covers that made me go WTF?
