Пятый полноценный альбом Opera IX вышел весьма интересным. Правда, часто ощущается избыток тяжести - звук на этом альбоме действительно самый мощный и "жирный" из всех работ группы, и слушать его после предыдущих альбомов непросто. На мой взгляд, именно это (наряду, разумеется, с уходом Кадаверии) привело к потере уникальной ведьмовской атмосферы группы.Однако к звуку можно привыкнуть, а для кого-то утяжеление звучания покажется безоговорочным плюсом. К вокалу M the Bard'a привыкнуть невозможно.

Head of David - британская индастриал-метал-группа с такими участниками, как вокалист Стивен Берроуз и бывший участник Napalm Death Джастин Бродрик (после ухода из группы основал Godflesh и Jesu).

12—13 сентября 2013 года Scorpions сыграли два акустических сета в театре под открытым небом «Ликавит» в Афинах (Греция). Театр был построен по проекту греческого архитектора Такиса Зенотоса в 1965 году. Таким образом, театр является ровесником группы Scorpions. Он расположен на горе Ликавит высотой 300 м над уровнем моря, откуда открывается вид на греческий мегаполис. Но это было не единственной причиной, почему Scorpions выбрали Афины для проведение первого в истории MTV Unplugged open-air шоу. «Когда к нам обратились с идеей играть в unplugged-шоу, мы сразу подумали о Греции» — вспоминает Клаус Майне. «У нас есть чудесные поклонники во всем мире, но греки — совершенно яростные фанаты» — добавил Маттиас Ябс.

Мало того, Hate Über Alles даже усиливает мелодию в звучании группы, делая намеки на традиционный хэви-метал, а иногда и на пауэр-метал, делая этот альбом самым экспериментальным с 2000-х гг. В то же время Kreator не смягчается, поскольку интенсивность трэша все еще присутствует, хоть и не в полном объеме.

Demi Monde Bizarros subtitled "Songs about sex, satan and sado-masochism" is the fourth and last album by the Swedish metal band Notre Dame.

Watermark is the second studio album by Irish singer, songwriter and musician Enya, released on 19 September 1988 by WEA. After the release of her previous album Enya (1987), she secured a recording contract with Warner after a chance meeting with chairman Rob Dickins, who had become a fan of her music. Her contract allowed her considerable artistic and creative freedom, with minimal interference from the label and no deadlines to have albums finished. Enya recorded Watermark in ten months with her longtime collaborators, manager, producer and arranger Nicky Ryan and his wife, lyricist Roma Ryan. It was initially recorded in Ireland in demo form before production relocated to London to re-record, mix, and master it digitally. Watermark features music in different styles, displaying Enya's sound of multi-tracked vocals with keyboards, percussion instruments, and elements of Celtic, ambient, and New-age music, though Enya believes her music does not belong in the latter genre.

The Memory of Trees is the fourth studio album by the Irish singer, songwriter, and musician Enya, released on 20 November 1995 by WEA. After travelling worldwide to promote her previous album Shepherd Moons (1991), and contributing to film soundtracks, Enya took a short break before she started writing and recording a new album in 1993 with her longtime recording partners, arranger and producer Nicky Ryan and his wife, lyricist Roma Ryan. The album is Enya's first to be recorded entirely in Ireland, and covers themes that include Irish and Druid mythology, the idea of one's home, journeys, religion, dreams and love. Enya continues to display her sound of multi-tracked vocals with keyboards and elements of Celtic and new age music, though Enya does not consider her music to be in the latter genre. She sings in English, Irish, Latin and Spanish.

Enya is the debut studio album by Irish singer, songwriter, and musician Enya, released in March 1987 by BBC Records in the United Kingdom and by Atlantic Records in the United States. It was renamed as The Celts for the 1992 international re-release of the album by WEA Records in Europe and by Reprise Records in the United States. The album is a selection of music she recorded for the soundtrack to the BBC television series The Celts, aired in 1987. Four years into her largely unnoticed solo career, Enya landed her first major project in 1985 when producer Tony McAuley asked her to contribute a song to the soundtrack. After its director David Richardson liked her demo, Enya accepted his offer to compose the entire score with her longtime recording partners, producer and arranger Nicky Ryan and his wife, lyricist Roma Ryan.

Dark Sky Island is the eighth studio album by Irish singer, songwriter, and musician Enya, released on 20 November 2015 by Warner Bros. Records internationally and by Reprise Records in the United States. After the release of her previous album, And Winter Came... (2008), Enya was unsure of her next career move so she decided to take a break from music which lasted four years. In the spring of 2012 she started to write and record new material for a new album with her longtime collaborators, producer and arranger Nicky Ryan and his wife, lyricist Roma Ryan. Enya gained inspiration for the title track and the album from the 2011 designation of Sark in the Channel Islands as a dark-sky preserve and a collection of Roma Ryan's poems on islands.

And Winter Came... is the seventh studio album by Irish singer, songwriter, and musician Enya, released on 10 November 2008 by Warner Bros. Records. After recording new Christmas songs for her fourth EP Sounds of the Season with Enya (2006), Enya started work on a Christmas album of traditional carols and original tracks, but the idea was changed to a collection of songs with a Christmas or winter theme as it better suited the style of the new material. It was recorded with her longtime collaborators, arranger and producer Nicky Ryan and his wife, lyricist Roma Ryan.

Amarantine is the sixth studio album by Irish singer-songwriter and musician Enya, released on 21 November 2005 by Warner Bros. Records.

Amarantine was recorded in Ireland with her longtime recording partners, arranger and producer Nicky Ryan and his wife, lyricist Roma Ryan. It is Enya's first album not to include a song in Irish and her first sung in Japanese and Loxian, a fictional language created by Roma.

Elton John is the second studio album by English singer-songwriter Elton John, released on 10 April 1970 by DJM Records. It was released by Uni Records as John's debut album in the United States; many people there assumed it was his first album, as Empty Sky was not released in that country until 1975. Elton John includes his breakthrough single "Your Song", and helped to establish his career during what was considered the "singer-songwriter" era of popular music. In the US, it was certified gold in February 1971 by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). In the same year, it was nominated for the Grammy Award for Album of the Year.

An assembly line of blues and rock drives “messin with a fool,” it captures Detroit’s independent spirit with true grit and motor city soul. Eliza Neals sought out the unique talents of veteran writer/producer Martin ‘Tino’ Gross (Kid Rock, RL Burnside) and united him with Detroit legend Barrett Strong (Marvin Gaye, Temptations) to begin provocative recording sessions. Eliza’s “strangely sultry blues voice” and cool writing style melted with the two masters forging a solid union. Completing their first song plus music video in the summer of 2010, proved “Misery” could truly bring happiness!
