Metallica - St. Anger (Abridged) @musicdungeon7094

Music Dungeon This was a little project that I had started last year and had kinda sitting around for a while, I'm deciding to upload it since I feel this does give the album a much needed "trimming of the fat". There's a lot of good ideas here that are either poorly executed or just overstay their welcome(those bloated song lengths). The idea was to keep the songs intact, while getting to the point, essentially. For the most part, this works very well and makes this album less of a slog in my eyes. Is it as revelatory as I'm making it out to be? That's for you to decide, but just remember this was mostly for my own personal use at first. If you enjoy the edits I've done, I may upload my condensed version of Death Magnetic(not all of the tracks are cut down, as this was again, for my own personal use).

1. Frantic 0:00 - 4:09
2. St. Anger 4:09 - 9:56
3. Some Kind of Monster 9:56 - 15:11
4. Dirty Window 15:11 - 19:09
5. Invisible Kid 19:09 - 23:30
6. My World 23:30 - 27:11
7. Shoot Me Again 27:11 - 31:46

Naked Sun - Wonderdrug (1993)

Music Dungeon 2022-01-08 | This is the 2nd and final album from this very unique New York based Progressive Rock band. This one is a little darker a bit more "90s" at times, but is still easily identifiable as the same band. As to whether I prefer this over the first album, I'd say I tend to flip flop on which one I like better, but that goes to show how high quality both releases really are. I would personally say this one feels a little bit more focused since there aren't any skits/interludes here to bridge stuff together, the tracklist is a bit leaner overall because of it. Personal favorites are Smile Mother, Recant, Fallen in Hate and The Nightmare Song.

There were some lineup changes between their first album and this release. According to Kevin Carey of The Gallows Humor, he actually auditioned to become a guitarist for this act in between the first and second albums, but ultimately didn't get the job. If you have no idea who The Gallows Humor are, you're in luck because I uploaded both of their albums to this very channel. If you're a fan of Proggy "Grunge" stuff, you'll probably dig it.

Tony B. Quagmire - drums, tabla, percussion
Angus Podgorny-Clark - guitar
Max Vanderwolf - vocals, sax
Kenny "Zero" Dell - bass

Keyboards - Mike Bratland
Additional Sax - Jason Leong

Tracklist:
1. Shriek of the Weak 0:00 - 4:40
2. Smile, Mother (your baby's gonna be a failure) 4:40 - 8:03
3. Recant 8:03 - 14:02
4. Creation Theory 14:02 - 18:26
5. Memory of an Expensive Festival 18:26 - 25:17
6. Fallen in Hate (Live at Chez Stadium) 25:17 - 30:30
7. The Nightmare Song: Blood and Fake Blood 30:30 - 36:32
8. Thorazine Turkey Burger (featuring the Hillary Clinton Interpretive Healthcare Dance) 36:32 - 45:21

Naked Sun - Naked Sun (1991)

Music Dungeon 2022-01-08 | I've been super interested in this band since the moment I found them, I guess it was an issue of being at the wrong place at the wrong time, or maybe they were too eclectic for the big labels to give them a shot? I unfortunately don't have a ton of background on the band since fans of them are very very few and far between. Anyway, this is essentially a Progressive Rock album that isn't afraid to touch on some of the emerging Alternative stylings of the time, while not abandoning its 70s roots. There's a bit of Metal, a bit of funk, a couple Prog epics, etc. Pretty much something for everyone. The singer, Max Vanderwolf, has an extremely distinct voice that you'll either love or hate. The musicianship here is top notch though, the songs are complex, but still catchy enough to keep you bobbing your head. I wish these guys had a better label and wider distribution because the stuff on here is CRIMINALLY unknown in my opinion.

My personal favorites are probably A Song on Fire, Stillborn, Blackberry Saturday and Next Stop, Chapel Perilous. Also there's a neat cover of Bowie's "Andy Warhol" at the very end of the album(it's considered a hidden track since it's not listed anywhere).

Zero - Electric and acoustic bass, cello, Backing vocals
T.B. Quagmire - Drums and percussion, Backing vocals
Max Vanderwolf - Lead vocals, Alto Sax
Mathias Q-Tip - All Guitars, Backing vocals
Franz Liebkins - Keyboards, Backing vocals

Tracklist:
1. The Moment (A Moment Later-C.M.F.) 0:00 - 6:45

3. A Title for Glenn 11:21 - 12:57
4. Rite to Life 12:57 - 18:18
5. Rest Area 18:18 - 18:22
6. Stillborn 18:22 - 27:21
7. Bleeding Line 27:21 - 28:15
8. Blackberry Saturday 28:15 - 34:28
9. Psycho-Activate 34:28 - 38:35
10. Rock Corps 38:35 - 39:36
11. Next Stop, Chapel Perilous 39:36 - 51:51
12. Andy Warhol (David Bowie cover) [Hidden Track] 51:51 - 56:36

Max Vanderwolf Presents: An All Star Musical Tribute to Max Vanderwolf 1969-1996 (1996)

Music Dungeon 2022-01-08 | I don't have a ton of knowledge of Naked Sun's history or really anything on Max Vanderwolf, but I do know that both of their albums and this solo album are all great works and definitely deserve a lot more love.

Stylistically, this album is generally more straight forward than the two Naked Sun CDs, but there's still a lot of the same genre hopping and quirks from the former band to satiate a desire for a "third album", this is about as close as you're gonna get to one and honestly, it sounds absolutely NOTHING like those albums. So I'd recommend dropping your preconceptions and just enjoying the ride.

Max Vanderwolf Presents is:
M.V. - Voice
Ray Grappone - Drums & Percussion
Desmond Horne - Bass
Mathias Q-tip Cusick - Guitar
Derek Bronston - Guitar
Dennis Martin - Keyboards

with
Tom Murray - Saxophones
Tino Gagliardi - Trumpets
Roy Fitzgerald - Trombone
Denny Bonet - Violin
Horn arrangement:
Tom Murray and M.V.

Tracklist:
1. Lady Vanderwolf 0:00 - 1:26
2. Hammerheart 1:26 - 5:26
3. My Favorite Martyr 5:26 - 9:13
4. Twilight of the Idle 9:13 - 13:40
5. This Blessed Curse 13:40 - 20:00
6. Inter-racial Prom Night 20:00 - 22:14
7. Brother, Can You Spare a Paradigm 22:14 - 25:47
8. Kissing Life from Time 25:47 - 29:24
9. Is You Is or Is You Ain't My Ism 29:24 - 34:49

Oingo Boingo Farewell Concert Live Halloween 1995

Music Dungeon 2018-05-19 | This video was taken down recently and I conveniently already downloaded it from YouTube and now I'm sharing it with the fans once again.

Shovelhead - Unreleased Album (1993-1994) [Full Album]

Music Dungeon 2017-10-01 | This is the first proper recording from Shovelhead. What makes this band noteworthy is that Don Garrison of Mainiax fronted them during their entire duration. The Drummer, Mike Dunn, is actually the father of my best friend and bandmate. This is basically how we got a hold of it. The music on here is actually really good, there's a lot of Sabbath/early Kyuss influence, along with some prog tendencies. There's also a good helping of standard metal attitude on here as well.

Tracklist
-------------
1. Osiris 0:00 - 6:25
2. Living in Fear 6:25 - 13:06
3. The Marquis De Sade 13:06 - 18:52
4. March of the Crack Monkeys 18:52 - 23:32
5. Watching Over You 23:32 - 26:08
6. Battleground 26:08 - 29:35
7. Wild and Abandoned 29:35 - 33:15
8. Utopia 33:15 - 37:17
9. Sinister Things 37:17 - 43:26
10. Liquid 25 43:26 - 52:14

Shovelhead - Shovelhead (1999) [Full EP]

Music Dungeon 2017-10-01 | I believe this is the only commercially released Shovelhead recording. It's a 4 track EP with a lot heavier Kyuss/Stoner Metal influence(not enough to call it Stoner Metal, however). Really good stuff overall. The Prog tendencies are very apparent on the track "Mastermind".

Tracklist
--------------
1. Smoking Gun 0:00 - 4:42
2. Drive 4:42 - 8:08
3. Mastermind 8:08 - 14:17
4. Flatline 14:17 - 17:50

Mainiax - Boys Night Out (1986) + Early Recordings (1983) [Full Album]

Music Dungeon 2017-10-01 | This is the first and only album from the obscure South Carolina Metal band, Mainiax. I found this on a CD-R at a friend's house, and it had 2 bonus songs that were recorded in 1983. These bonus songs are very AOR in sound, so take that as you will(I don't think they can be found anywhere else). I also have some material from the band Shovelhead(Don from Mainiax was in this band) that I plan to upload. My friend's dad was the drummer in that band. Right now, I have a full album and an EP that I can upload, but there's still more stuff that I'm waiting on.

Tracklist
-------------
1. Life of Crime 0:00 - 3:48
2. Boys Night Out 3:48 - 8:02
3. Love Machine 8:02 - 11:03
4. Night of the Polizei 11:03 - 15:36
5. What You See Is What You Get 15:36 - 21:10
6. Halloween 21:10 - 25:18
7. Witch's Brew 25:18 - 30:49
8. Yellow Star 30:49 - 38:03
9. One Size 38:03 - 40:36
10. Frame of Mind [Bonus Track from 1983] 40:36 - 44:38
11. Secrets [Bonus Track from 1983] 44:38 - 47:24

Drive - Diablero Advanced Tape (1990) [Full Album]

Music Dungeon 2017-08-22 | This recording is different from the official release though the performances are roughly the same. 4 tracks present on the 92 version are not here, but there are 2 largely unheard of tracks here(Inherit the Wind & Insanity). These 2 songs are actually pretty good and deserve to be heard by more people. Also, the middle section of Pandilla is sung in English, rather than Spanish like on the 92 version. The cover was made by me.

Tracklist:
1. Dream / The Ceremony 0:00 - 5:18
2. An Eagle Soars 5:18 - 10:16
3. Pandilla 10:16 - 16:56
4. A Character in Time 16:56 - 20:07
5. Shapeshifter (Diablero) 20:07 - 25:47
6. Remember 25:47 - 30:00
7. Money, Marbles & Chalk 30:00 - 33:46
8. Brujo 33:46 - 39:24
9. Inherit the Wind 39:24 - 43:35
10. Insanity 43:35 - 49:11

Drive - Diablero (1992) [Full Album]

Music Dungeon 2017-08-21 | This is the 2nd album from the Texas band Drive. The sound on here is a bit more refined, showing some influence from Queensryche's "Empire" in that they balance their metal sound with hard rock. It also sounds similar a TNT album, so if you like them, this should be an enjoyable listen. This is the 2nd time this album was recorded as they had recorded a different version in 1990, which included 2 songs that do not reappear here. In turn, there are 4 tracks on this version that do not appear on the 1990 version.

Tracklist:
1. Dream Ceremony 0:00 - 5:27
2. Shapeshifter (Diablero) 5:27 - 11:17
3. Pandilla 11:17 - 18:09
4. Once Again 18:09 - 22:29
5. Betrayed 22:29 - 26:04
6. Brujo 26:04 - 30:58
7. Full Moon Rising 30:58 - 36:09
8. Remember 36:09 - 40:31
9. A Character in Time 40:31 - 44:02
10. An Eagle Soars 44:02 - 49:11
11. Money, Marbles and Chalk 49:11 - 53:10
12. Barrio Blues 53:10 - 57:36

The Gallows Humor - What You Hear in the Dark (1994) [Full Album]

Music Dungeon 2017-08-15 | This is the 2nd and final album from The Gallows Humor, a very short lived band that made some very unique prog metal/rock similar to Last Crack or Mind over Four. Overall, this album basically picks up where the first one ended stylistically. If you liked the first album then you'll love this. Music like this should've been bigger at the time as it has a similar sound to what was popular but it's done in a more technical way. I guess it all boils down to what label you're signed to.

Lineup:
Doug Wisniski - Bass & disposable lemons
Kevin Carey - Guitar, Vocals & neuroses
Kent Miller - Drums & excessive whining

Additional noisemongers:
Rob Bailey - Guitar solo on Skitzo, 2nd solo on White Bread, 2nd solo and high vocal on Combination
Rick Stack - Guitar solo on Dogma
Brian Tichy - Drums on Dogma and Mozart
Kevin Kelly - Drums on Combination and What You Hear...

Tracklist:
1. Worthy 0:00 - 4:25
2. Peach 4:25 - 6:00
3. Listen 6:00 - 9:07
4. Uncles 9:07 - 10:49
5. White Bread 10:49 - 14:40
6. Old Lute Prelude Type Thingy 14:40 - 15:46
7. Combination 15:46 - 19:07
8. Meet Mr. Wipe! (Jazz Vomit II) 19:07 - 20:26
9. Incomplete 20:26 - 24:01
10. Wicked 24:01 - 27:20
11. What You Hear in the Dark 27:20 - 34:10
12. Skitzo 34:10 - 37:40
13. Finlay and the Minnesota Moon 37:40 - 39:08
14. Walking the Dogma 39:08 - 46:14
15. Mozart, Joyce and Sodomy 46:14 - 50:17
16. Joy of the Pain 50:17 - 52:12

The Gallows Humor - In Dying Need (1993) [Full Album]

Music Dungeon 2017-08-15 | This is the first of two albums from a very obscure but still very good progressive metal/rock band. People I've shown this band to have described them as "Alice in Chains if they played prog metal/rock". A very fitting description indeed. This album is full of very interesting instrumentation on both the more straight forward tracks and on the instrumentals(namely Wuh-Buh-Juh CUYA). A lot of the music has a sort of oddly depressing quality to it, which adds to the unique atmosphere.

Lineup:
Kevin Carey - Guitars, Voice & Harmonica
Doug Wisniski - Bass & "creative inspiration"
Brian Tichy - Drums & viruses

Additional musicians:
Piano and insults courtesy of Mr. David Friedmann

Tracklist:
1. The Passion Vibe 0:00 - 3:01
2. Tichy's Disease 3:01 - 3:52
3. Seconds Away 3:52 - 9:04
4. Jazz Vomit no. 1 9:04 - 10:23
5. Cagey 10:23 - 13:06
6. Lost 13:06 - 15:58
7. Only Me 15:58 - 20:08
8. Wuh-Buh-Juh CUYA 20:08 - 25:47
9. Prelude no. 1 25:47 - 26:45
10. Desperately Seeking Ione 26:45 - 30:55
11. Prelude Too 30:55 - 33:37
12. Eve Takes a Dive 33:37 - 38:05
13. Case in Point 38:05 - 40:29
14. Dr. Seuss 40:29 - 42:23

The Gallows Humor - Only Me

Music Dungeon 2017-08-10 | -Video Upload powered by https://www.TunesToTube.com

Drive - Shapeshifter (Diablero)

Music Dungeon 2017-07-31 | This is the title track of Drive's 2nd album Diablero. The first thing you'll notice about this track is that kickass opening riff. This is heavy metal at it's best.

The Gallows Humor - Prelude Too / Eve Takes a Dive

Music Dungeon 2017-07-31 | Here is another track(actually two tracks) from this very obscure band. A couple of my friends described them as sounding like "Alice in Chains if they played prog metal". It's kind of a fitting description.

Reverend - Dimensional Confusion

Music Dungeon 2017-07-30 | I debated whether or not to upload the full EP, and I decided to just upload this track first.

Souls at Zero - Souls at Zero (1993) [Full Album]

Music Dungeon 2017-07-22 | The is the first album from the band Souls at Zero. Souls at Zero is basically a continuation of Wrathchild America seeing as all of the original members are here and the sound is similar. The only difference is that they build upon the sound established on 3D and add some Pantera-style aggression to it.

Tracklist:
--------------
1. Frustration 0:00 - 4:38
2. Never 4:38 - 10:01
3. Look 10:01 - 14:19
4. Hardline 14:19 - 19:00
5. Lost 19:00 - 25:20
6. Checkin' Out 25:20 - 29:41
7. Souls at Zero 29:41 - 35:20
8. Grey World 35:20 - 39:48
9. Not You 39:48 - 46:00
10. Crowded Head 46:00 - 50:36
11. Welcome to the 90s 50:36 - 54:57
12. Mind's Eye 54:57 - 1:03:32

Winters Bane - Night Shade

Music Dungeon 2017-07-22 | I chose to upload this specific Winters Bane song due to the amazing vocal performance by Tim "Ripper" Owens. I might upload a full album video tomorrow.

The Gallows Humor - The Passion Vibe

Music Dungeon 2017-07-17 | This is a very odd track from a very odd band. I don't know anything about them other than they played a very interesting form of Prog Metal.

White Fear Chain - Visceral Life [Full Album]

Music Dungeon 2017-07-14 | This is the 1st and only album from the band White Fear Chain. It features Steve Post, Paul Laganowski(R.I.P. 2017), and Takis Kinis of the Technical Thrash band Realm, drummer Brian Reidinger(Axis, Malicious, Gemini) and Buddo of Last Crack.

The music is not very close to Realm despite most of the members belonging to said band. It's more akin to what Buddo did with Last Crack, though it's a lot more aggressive and certainly darker than his former band.

Tracklist:
---------------
1. Visceral Life 0:00 - 4:16
2. Daily into Darkness 4:16 - 9:06
3. Roaches in the Lamplight Screaming 9:06 - 14:04
4. Before You Go 14:04 - 18:16
5. V 18:16 - 23:55
6. Shotgun Mouth 23:55 - 27:41
7. Alive 27:41 - 31:48
8. El Cabellero Diablo 31:48 - 36:24
9. Peppermint Twist 36:24 - 40:27
10. Slave Become King 40:27 - 44:15
11. Headstone 44:15 - 47:30

Lethal - The Arrival (1987) [Demo]

Music Dungeon 2017-07-13 | This is the first demo from the band Lethal, I believe that their later output is very underrated and I plan to upload "Your Favorite God" & "Poison Seed"

Tracklist:
--------------
1. Land of the Free 0:00 - 3:33
2. Just Before Dawn 3:33 - 6:44
3. The Arrival 6:44 - 11:10
4. Tomorrow's King 11:10 - 17:06

Last Crack - Mini Toboggan

Music Dungeon 2017-07-13 | This is the second track off of Last Crack's magnum opus, Burning Time. I decided to fade it out towards the end to make it sound more natural.

Mind Over Four - Mind Over Four (1989) [Full Album] [CD Rip]

Music Dungeon 2017-07-09 | This is the CD version of Mind Over Four's second album. To my knowledge, this version is extremely hard to find, as the only other copy I found was going for a ridiculously high price($75).

Tracklist:
--------------
1. Social Stature 0:00 - 3:15
2. Vernal Equinox 3:15 - 8:05
3. The Culmination 8:05 - 13:00
4. Hero 13:00 - 14:50
5. Half a Man 14:50 - 18:19
6. Messiah 18:19 - 20:34
7. The Black Orgasm 20:34 - 23:20
8. The Mile Between the Molecule 23:04 - 26:48
9. Winter 26:48 - 29:15

Last Crack 2004 Demo

Music Dungeon 2017-07-09 | This is a very hard to find demo from one of my favorite bands. I am also in the process of getting their 1990 single, so expect to see that in the future.

Tracklist:
--------------
1. Siren Song 0:00 - 4:09
2. Sensei 4:09 - 7:44
3. Greta Grinder 7:44 - 12:31
4. Bullet Train 12:31 - 18:04

Mind Over Four - Mind Over Four (1989) [Full Album]

Music Dungeon 2017-06-05 | This is the 2nd album from the criminally underrated Mind Over Four. This builds off of the sound established from their debut. Overall, I would say that it's a much more solid release than the debut, and that's saying a lot, because I really like "Out Here".

Side A - Over
-------------
1. Social Stature 0:00 - 3:15
2. Vernal Equinox 3:15 - 8:05
3. The Culmination 8:05 - 12:55
4. Hero 12:55 - 14:43

Side B - Under
--------------
5. Half a Man 14:43 - 18:10
6. Messiah 18:10 - 20:20
7. The Black Orgasm 20:20 - 23:04
8. The Mile Between the Molecule 23:04 - 26:30
9. Winter 26:30 - 28:53

Mind Over Four - Out Here (1987) [Full Album]

Music Dungeon 2017-06-05 | This is a great debut from a very obscure metal band. They're kinda like Last Crack in that their style is very hard to pin down. You can also make some comparisons to some of the Seattle bands that were popping up around the same time, and while I do like a lot of those bands, that's also not an accurate comparison either. I will be uploading their other 4 albums, if anybody has their 1983 EP "Desperate Expression", I would love to have some mp3's of it.

Side A - Interior
-----------------
1. Hold On 0:00 - 1:59
2. Sex with an Apparition 1:59 - 4:11
3. She Beams the Light 4:11 - 6:36
4. God 6:36 - 8:37
5. Martin's Song 8:37 - 12:52

Side B - Exterior
-----------------
6. Television 12:52 - 13:41
7. Pity 13:41 - 17:30
8. Out Here 17:30 - 19:12
9. The Other with the Other / The Letter 19:12 - 23:05
10. Sunn 23:05 - 26:46
11. No Antidote 26:46 - 28:18
