At the french groups I have nothing against Warning or ADX but how not to quote our Curse "Judas Priest" national singer with his Christian Augustin or the excellent band High Power
Pou my part I would have quoted
Candlemass Epicus Doomicus metallicus or ancient dreams (my favorite)
Death Angel the ultra-violence (choose more relevant than dying art od treated in Volume 2)
Solitude aeternus into the depths of sorrow (with Robert Lowe who officiated later in Candlemass)
Exciter Heavy Metal Maniac (Canadian group officiating in a speed-thrash vein with 1 disc left before kill'em Metallica all)
