PAUL CHAIN - Opera 4th (1987)


Already gave Thee Maestro of Melancholy, Paul Chain, a scribing here (scroll down a tad; oh and if the links are broken, them's the breaks). Judging by the song titles ("Resurrection in Christ" being the most obvious), "Opera 4th" is his take on the classic Xian fairytale. Not that it matters-- all of his lyrics are purely phonetical and improvised on the spot. Instead, dig his monolithic axe riffage that borrows liberally from the Iommi school while maintaining an individuality seldom heard in the doom metal genre.

SAINT VITUS - The Walking Dead (EP, 1985)


Last effort with original vocalist Scott Reagers (who rejoined a few later for their magnum opus "Die Healing"), here's three wounded leeches crawling through a vat of pus, blood and puke masquerading as songs. To spew further verbiage seems pointless; you know 'em, you (should) worship 'em... Saint Fucking Vitus!


Where could it be?
