Harmony Corruption Reviews: Amorphis-Elegy

Posted on 2025-05-15 by CelestialEmissary Posted in Harmony Corruption, Music Reviews, Music Shows, Reviews

A Bridge Into the Future, A Mirror to the Past – 95%* Amorphis’ third album released in 1996. As these fabulous Finns continued to let their sound blossom, they broadened their horizons. Elegy is an album I view as semi-similar to Tiamat’s 1994 adventurous “Wildhoney.” Part of me connecting these two albums is that I

Harmony Corruption Reviews: Riot-Thundersteel

Posted on 2025-03-11 by CelestialEmissary Posted in Harmony Corruption, Music Reviews, Reviews

And We Ride, Thundering Into the Sky – 100%* Riot’s Thundersteel is one of the purest distillations of heavy metal I can think of. This album storms out of the gate and doesn’t truly let up throughout it’s concise 46 minute runtime. I don’t feel many albums deserve the 100%. but this one earns it.

Harmony Corruption Reviews: Trouble-Trouble (1990)

Posted on 2025-03-11 by CelestialEmissary Posted in Harmony Corruption, Music Reviews, Reviews

Trouble Goes Retro – 95%* Trouble’s 4th album (and second self-titled, for some bizarre reason) is in many ways Trouble moving forward and backward. This album is their most 70s sounding album up to this point, as they take their already noticeable Sabbathian influences a few steps further and push their 70s doom and rock
