Альбом "Blondie" – это первый шаг заурядной панк-группы из Нью-Йорка к статусу мировой звезды. Завсегдатаям культового клуба KBGB удалось, в отличие многочисленных команд, с кем они делили сцену, подписать контракт на выпуск дебютного альбома с маленькой фирмочкой Private Stock Records. Их первый сингл, несмотря на свою яркость и очевидную хитовость, бойкотировали многие радиостанции. По этой причине название было заменено с "Sex Offender" на "Х-Offdender", и дела группы резко пошли в гору.

В музыкальном плане диск представляет собой дальнейшее развитие музыкальных идей гитариста и основного композитора группы Тони Айомми. Так же, как и на прошлых двух альбомах, на «Technical Ecstasy» простые и короткие песни, такие, как «Rock 'N' Roll Doctor», контрастируют с более продолжительными и сложными песнями, такими, как «You Won’t Change Me» и «Dirty Women». Исходный материал был несколько подпорчен неважным продюсированием, и поэтому не смог повторить коммерческого успеха своего предшественника, альбома «Sabotage».

Cheshire Cat is the debut studio album by the American rock band Blink-182. Recorded at Westbeach Recorders in Los Angeles and produced by Otis Barthoulameu and the band themselves, the album was released on February 17, 1995 through local independent record label Cargo Music. The trio, composed of guitarist Tom DeLonge, bassist Mark Hoppus, and drummer Scott Raynor, formed in 1992 and recorded three demos that impressed the San Diego-based Cargo. In addition, their reputation as an irreverent local live act at venues such as SOMA alerted the label, which was trying to expand into different genres.

Российское издание альбома Sabotage. Альбом Sabotage был тепло встречен критикой (журнал Rolling Stone счёл его лучшим на тот момент в истории группы).

Для оформления обложки альбома была использована картина «Изнасилование Христа» («The Rape of Christ»), автор которой, Дрю Струзан, позже занимался оформлением кинопостеров, работал над дизайном первых «Звездных войн».

Sabbath Bloody Sabbath es el quinto álbum de Black Sabbath, editado en 1973 y considerado como uno de los clásicos del Heavy metal. Tras su publicación cosechó el visto bueno de la crítica gracias a su destilada técnica musical y sus letras más amplias y polifacéticas.

After going their separate ways for a brief period following the emotionally taxing and drug-infested Technical Ecstasy tour, Black Sabbath and singer Ozzy Osbourne reconciled long enough to record 1978's Never Say Die! -- an album whose varied but often unfocused songs perfectly reflected the band's uneasy state of affairs at the time.

Обложка альбома представляет собой модифицированную картину Грега Хильдебрандта. Оригинальное изображение помимо добавления имени группы и названия альбомы было изменено: висевший слева на оригинале крюк был заменен на распятие, а пятно на конструкции было перерисовано так, чтобы оно напоминало голову дьявола. Имя автора было добавлено в нижнюю центральную часть, в то время как на оригинале прямоугольной формы оно располагалось слева. Ходят слухи что, изображение содержит надпись «KILL OZZY». Она находится внизу изображения, на полу, и написана тёмно-красным цветом. Но это лишь похожие пятна.
