Review: While the Cavalera brothers would become renowned for their work with Sepultura, many will admit to having little reservations about jumping ship to Soulfly when the time came. With frontman Max Cavalera's penchant for ferocious thrash riffage, husking growls and tribal infusions, this later project would bolster some of the most vicious thrash-punk both sides of the millennium. 'The Soul Remains Insane' compiles all four studio albums, released between 1998 to 2004, along with a bonus LP of b-sides, rarities and unreleased tracks. A book with rare interviews offering insight into each record is also included, making this 4 album/1 compilation, 5xLP collection a true spectacle of fan service to behold.

Review: Swiss extreme metal pioneers, Celtic Frost, are arguably one of the most quintessential acts of the late 80s scene, who along with the likes of Venom and Bathory, managed to usher in a grim era of the most challenging, abrasive, occult-inspired variety. The Danse Macabre boxset serves as a time capsule of the band's formative years, spanning their early works from 1984 to 1987, including the seminal full-lengths, 'To Mega Therion', and, 'Into The Pandemonium', along with a slew of their early EPs, including, 'Morbid Tales', 'Emperor's Return', and, 'Tragic Serenades'. Complete with glow in the dark vinyl, an additional 7", cassette, as well as miscellanea including a badge, patch, poster, and the 40-page book, 'A Morbid Tale', this is fan service done right, and a restorative gem of the band's early, glorious, evil reign.

Review: While it's been 13 years since the tragic passing of one of the greatest rock and metal vocalists of our time, the legacy left behind by Ronnie James Dio serves as unwavering testament to the man's aura, character and prowess, even up to his final recordings which make up this collector's box set. Featuring the final four albums recorded under his own name, all housed in a sideloading box with newly created art on five 180g coloured LPs (1996's Angry Machines on Halloween orange with black marble, 2000's Magica on transparent blood red and black smoke, 2002's Killing The Dragon on transparent yellow with black marble and 2004's Master Of The Moon on electric blue with milky clear marble, plus the rare Electra single on a cobalt blue 7", the epic collection coincides with the upcoming release of Dio: Dreamers Never Die; the first authorised career-spanning documentary centred around the iconic frontman.
