Ever bought a cd by a band you've never heard of based on the cover? *

I was going through cds at a garage sale in a tiny town with less than 500 people and found this, bought it for 1 Australian dollar

Squealer? I've got one song by them, it was on some compilation CD I once got from a library. I should go through my collection to try and remember where I've bought my stuff and why. *
mielikki 11.04.10 - 09:32am
Yes, Squealer alb*m Make Your Day *

I bought Killing the Dragon by Dio when I needed one more CD to my basket to get all of them cheaper. I chose it because I wanted some Dio into my collection and because it's got such a cool cover:

i've bought albums by bands i can't even read the name of,but as a rule for me if cover is black and white it usually a good thing *

Another just today bought based entirely upon its art work, havnt tore the celophane off it yet, not sure i want to:
it was bought not because i like his art, i find it grotesque and a bit vulgar, maybe i imagine it, anyhow, it was bought as it is unmistakabley art of HR GIGER. Although i dont particually like it as such, im facinated by it and him. *
aenglisc 22.04.10 - 06:00pm
oh, and the band and alb*m is TRIPTYKON: EPARISTERA DAIMON
not sure if itll mean alot but, the sticker on my copy reads: ''stunningly massive heavy and dark debut alb*m by Triptykon new group of
TOM GABRIEL WARRIOR
(hellhammer and celtic frost) *
ruoska 22.04.10 - 06:31pm
That album's got some really good reviews. Haven't listened to it yet myself. I enjoy H.R Giger's art *

heres one i bought at about the same time as JALDABOATH
it was bought merely as it has an image of: the Wilmington longman on the sleave, a chalk landscape cutting in the south of England, a place ive wanted to visit for years, along with the Abbos Giant an a number of other similar historic landmarks down south, usually men or horses. .closest i got was charting flights of half dozen on google earth *
mielikki 29.04.10 - 08:24pm
Hmmm Maybe a bad buy on your part. RAW black metal. Another Jaldaboath project *
aenglisc 29.04.10 - 08:37pm
Yeah. I know, but you have to try these things, i expected it to be just what you said, and altough it is, its not dreadful, lyrics are almost, not quite, but nearly clearly reconiseble. .its ok, but i think if it was more than four track long, idve give up. .even a bit of gregorian esque chanting which was unexpected,but welcome *
aenglisc 29.04.10 - 08:40pm
Dont shoot me, but, almost Forefather with the varied lighter vocal styles ripped out *
mancmike 3.06.10 - 11:12pm

mielikki 4.06.10 - 12:30am

Buying on looks can be a letdown. ..still not give Kingdom of Sorrow - behind blackest tears a 2nd go *
