| 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. | |
| 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. | |
| 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 | 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. | |
| 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. | |
| 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... | |
| Nefasto | Tierra Sin Memoria | 1998 | selfproduction
ID: Nef 001 | | Power Heavy Metal | This band unites very good South American Power/Heavy with some few but impressive Folk/Gothic elements (violins, etc.). A vocalist is a bit weak. | |
| Nefelim | A Gate of the Universe (Vrata Mirozdaniya) | 2002 | selfproduction | | Melodic Speed Power Metal | It's Russian Skylark (by primitiveness) with Andre Andersen-like keys (some
key parts are just ripped from Royal Hunt). This album is totally keys
oriented, there aren't dominating guitars there. | |
| Nemesis | Goddess of Revenge | 2003 | Underground Symphony
ID: US CD 072 | | Melodic Power Metal | Any label name means the definite orientation of the music, e.g. Magna Carta means very definite music, Underground Symphony... Yes, I mean this release is by Underground Symphony so it's Rhapsody + Angra + any Italian band though this band comes from Chech. | |
| Nenia C'Alladhan | Nenia C'Alladhan | 2002 | Apocalyptic Vision |  | Melodic | This is Anna-Varney (Sopor Aeternus) project, so music is total SA with
Blackmore's Night elements. This is not a funeral cry, it's just
melancholic music. | |
| Nerthus | Scattered to the Four Wainds | 2002 | CCP Records
ID: cdm 0302-810 | | Melodic Death Black Metal | At first, they use synthesized drums, it's audibly, as well as using many standard MIDI samples. Their music is a mixture of common Melodic Black and Melodic Death in In Flames style. | |
| Nevermore | Dreaming Neon Black | 1999 | Century Media Records | | Metal Metal | | |
