| Naamah | Resensement | 2004 | Metal Mind Records ID: cdm 1004-2067 |  | Gothic Progressive Metal | This is Progressive The Gathering with the traditional Polish Gothic ideas. Is there anything original on this album? I think so, because the music unites The Gathering, Gothic and many Progressive elements - it's a good idea. |
| Nameless | The Overcome of the Portuguese Bastards | 1996 | Guardians of Metal ID: GM004CD |  | Thrash Metal | It's classic European Thrash without any Industrial, Death or Alternative touches, unlike it usually happens with some modern Thrash bands. The guitars sometimes sound in melodious Speed key. |
| Nameless Crime | Nameless Crime | 2003 | Nocturnal Music ID: NMCD 046 |  | Heavy Thrash Metal | This not bad album contains Flotsam&Jetsam, Megadeth, Annihilator elements and some Prog elements also. There are some good solos and tunes on this album. I can say that their music is original enough and they can continue their work with more inspiration. |
| Nameless Crime | Law And Persecution | 2006 | Powerzone Records ID: MFM CD 001 |  | Heavy Power Metal | I am in a quandary, this music is powerful Heavy but
without special features on the album. Sometimes it reminds me of
Megadeth. |
| Nanowar | Other Bands Play, Nanowar Gay | 2006 | selfproduction ID: myst cd 032 |  | Heavy Metal | It's another parody-band for all those mighty warriors of Manowar and Rhapsody. Music is partially borrowed from the other bands with the humorous lyrics. |
| Napalm Death | Leaders Not Followers: Part 2 | 2004 | Century Media Records ID: fo400cd |  | Death Thrash Metal | It's cover-versions' collection of the extreme bands which have never been trendy or simple and melodic. But music didn't become more important after Napalm Death performance. |
| Narcoze | Genoma | 2002 | Zenor Recordz ID: Zenor 001 |  | Melodic Power Progressive Heavy Metal | This Brazilian band continues all Brazilian Melodic Metal traditions. I wasn't able to understand if they have an originality or not but music is good, the solos and the tunes are on the high level. There is even Viper cover-version on this album, it's the first Viper's cover that I've ever heard from the band which is not Andre Matos's one. |
| Narcoze | Dreams | 1998 | demo |  | Melodic Power Metal | It's good to listen to the demo albums, when the music's presented in a clear raw type, when you hear real musicians' possibilities. This demo is a demonstration of band's talent, this is really very good Melodic Power band. |
| Narita | Life | 1996 | Pony Canyon International |  | AOR Hard Heavy Metal | It's something between standard AOR, John West solo albums (he has nothing common with Narita of course), some Andre Andersen guests projects, The Scorpions, etc. I guess I'm getting liking this band. |
| Narnia | Long Live the King | 1999 | Nuclear Blast ID: NB 359-2 |  | Metal | |
| Narnia | Desert Land | 2001 | Nuclear Blast ID: irond cd 01-1 |  | Metal | |
| Narnia | The Great Fall | 2003 | Nuclear Blast ID: irond cd 03-483 |  | Melodic Power Metal | Fortunately the band left Malmsteen's way and tried to make more original
music. In general they kept their melodic feature, so this album was very
interesting and significant. Sometimes the music is close to Kamelot and
Symphony X. |
| Narnia | Enter the Gate | 2006 | Massacre Records ID: MAS CD0517 |  | Melodic Power Progressive Heavy Metal | Narnia isn't false to its traditions. It's still Melodic Metal without doubt with some touches of Labyrinth (keys) and Conception/Kamelot (the vocals, melodic parts) and decreasing of Malmsteen's music dependance. |
| Narnia | Course of a Generation | 2009 | Massacre Records ID: MASS CD0636 |  | Power Progressive Metal | It's average enough Power with Progressive elements. It's
a music in haste without aspiration to create something new and
interesting. |
| Nasty Savage | Wage of Mayhem | 1984 | demo ID: CR2002 |  | Heavy Thrash Metal | It's reissued first demo with two tracks from 2002. It's Agent Steel+Iron Maiden+Mercyful Fate by the music, the bonus tracks contributed some Slayer sound also. |
| Nasty Savage | Indulgence | 1987 | Metal Blade Records ID: 3984-14064-2 |  | Thrash Speed Metal | It's 2 in 1 edition. The music is strong and powerful
Thrash with Speed elements, with some Metallica and Mercyful Fate (the
screams) elements. |
| Nasty Savage | Penetration Point | 1989 | Rotten Records |  | Power Thrash Metal | Probably no one knows how the bands reach the level when they are already
separated from average bands playing common similar music and are original
and the sample for others. This band found its place in music long ago and
continues to demonstrate us excellent and powerful music with some Prog
elements. |
| Nasty Savage | Psycho Psycho | 2004 | Crook'd Records ID: CD2004 |  | Thrash Metal | It's not just Thrash, US or European, it's something various. E.g. it
contains something from classic US Thrash but with some European Thrash
elements like those of Mekong Delta. Anyway, this band is unique and can
be used for comparison with others in my reports coming. |
| Nasty Savage | Cleveland'87 | 2003 | Marquee Records ID: MR005 |  | Thrash Heavy Metal | It's a live album with an audio-tape quality. Though it's 1987, this record was released in 2003 only. |
| National Napalm Syndicate | Resurrection of the Wicked | 2006 | Poison Arrow Records ID: TRHK 009 |  | Thrash Metal | This Thrash is in the traditions of US Thrash of 90s. This music is intricate and because of it it's sometimes bored. This album doesn't lead you to the new horizons in the music. |
| Natisk | Nebo v Ogne (The Sky in the Fire) | 2004 | CD-Maximum ID: cdm 0504-1808 |  | Heavy Metal | Almost all Heavy bands in Russia dance around local band Ariya, that has got Iron Maiden heart inside. Yes, this band is a mixture of Iron Maiden, Accept with some unique Russian bands ideas, which have never been used by the bands from other countries. |
| Natisk | Vtoroe Dyhanie (Second Breath) | 2006 | CD-Maximum ID: cdm 0306-2461 |  | Heavy Metal | Probably, this album is the twin with the previous album, I just want to say the same words that it is like local band Ariya based on Iron Maiden music. It's nice melodious mid-tempo Heavy. |
| Natisk | Tyazhelaya Noch' (Hard Night) | 2008 | CD-Maximum ID: cdm 1107-2778 |  | Heavy Metal | This work is EP, the music is the same powerful Heavy which
this band already played in the past. The songs aren't bad but there
is not anything new there. |
| Nebular Moon | Metamorphosis | 2001 | CCP Records ID: cdm 1101-740 |  | Black Death Metal | |
| Necromancia | Check Mate | 2001 | Hellion Records ID: HEL0154 |  | Thrash Metal | It's a mixture of Sepultura and Slayer, the first one dominates since this album was produced by Kisser and he was a guest musician on this album also. I don't think this band follows its own way, but it follows the way of classic Sepultura, that is good. |
| Necromantia | Crossing the Fiery Path | 1993 | Osmose Records |  | Black Metal | |
| Necromantia | Cutts of the Shadow | 2002 | Osmose Records ID: fo276cd |  | Black Metal | It's a box with 'Crossing the Fiery Path' and 'Scarlet Evil, Witching Black'. The second album is arranged better, but it corresponds more to classic/standard Black Metal. Their bass guitars remind me of Venom. The music is perfect. |
| Necromantia | The Sound of Lucifer Storming Heaven | 2007 | Dockyard 1 ID: DY 100666 |  | Black Metal | It's still that two bass-guitars technical Black but not quite.
This last album is something like Celtic Frost with many different not
bad strings-keys arrangements. |
| Necromass | Abyss Calls Life | 1996 | Dracma Records |  | Melodic Black Death Doom Metal | This brilliant band plays incredible music with the technical guitars in Amorphis, Rotting Christ, Dark Tranquillity, Decoryah styles. Their talent could pull them out to the top of Melodic Black/Death... |
| Necronomicon (Germany) | Revenge of the Beast | 2008 | Xtreem Music ID: XM 056 CD |  | Thrash Metal | This work reminds me of something from US Thrash, first of all
my imagination prompted that Metal Church could sound similar to this
Necronomicon's album if that US band would play Thrash. So there is
something from German Thrash there, but this work is more various to
be just Thrash. |
