| Obsecration | The Inheritors of Pain | 1996 | |  | Metal | |
| Obsession | Methods of Madness | 1987 | Metal Mayhem Music ID: MM00003 |  | Hard Heavy Metal | Vescera was very good in 80s, the music was really powerful and original. It's not lazy Hard&Heavy of 90s or even 21 century, the bands of 80s knew that they're pioneers of Heavy, who knows new Hard&heavy bands of current days?! |
| Obstruction | Pokoli Szarnyakon | 2005 | Nail Records ID: NAILCD 041 |  | Melodic Heavy Metal | This mini album presents us ex-Ossian members, so the music is not bad, not average, it's really very good music. Probably, some Judas Priest is inside the song structure, but by melodic and by the guitar works it's something original again. |
| Oconnor | Yerba Mala Nunca Muere | 2000 | Fogon Musica ID: FM-001 |  | Heavy Alternative Metal | It's Heavy with some Alternative or even Punk elements. The music reminds something - what? I can't say, maybe because sound doesn't fill the minds by any brand new ideas. |
| Oconnor | Estamos Pariendo | 2006 | FYN S.A. ID: 8869 700454-2 |  | Heavy Alternative Metal | I got Oconnor again and the music is Heavy with Alternative once again. The songs are mid-tempo with some Stoner elements and of course on Spanish language only. |
| October 31 | The Fire Awaits You | 1997 | RIP Records ID: cdm 1202-1269 |  | Doom Heavy Power Thrash Stoner Metal | This album is like other one which was described by me earlier (Visions of the End) but the first one is less melodic than the second one. But vocals sound better tnan earlier. |
| October 31 | Visions of the End | 1999 | RIP Records ID: cdm 1202-1270 |  | Heavy Doom Stoner Metal | It's gloomy Heavy with some influence of Candlemass, but sound is too heavy for Heavy, it can be called slow Thrash (it probably is Stoner).There is similarity to Metallica of the end of 80s here. Splendid guitar riffs are often heard against the background of boring sound. Melodies which are heard not too often bewitches sometimes. The only bad thing is that their singer is absolute feebleness. He not only wheezes but also tries to sing ina clear voice but he doesn't have a good ear for music. But this album is a collection of their demos and bad adjustment of voice on a demo tape is not the trouble. |
| October 31 | Meet Thy Maker | 1999 | RIP Records ID: D&L 09 |  | Heavy Metal | This band plays great non-standard for US music of great label RIP Records again. In general it's a mixture of Judas Priest, Iron Maiden with some Doom influences. |
| October 31 | Stagefright | 2003 | Thrash Corner Records ID: THCR-012 |  | Heavy Metal | This live album is really honest recording - at least once there aren't studio editorship or re-recorings of unchancy parts of the live performance. The music is the same - gloomy Heavy with powerful sound in classic genre. |
| October 31 | No Survivors | 2004 | Thrash Corner Records ID: THCR 017 |  | Melodic Heavy Power Metal | What waits beyond. This band doesn't put an end to the war for Heavy Metal purifying. This band became stronger and faster, the some songs shift close even to Speed/Thrash. |
| Odyssea | Tears in Floods | 2004 | Scarlet Records ID: SC 093-2 |  | Power Heavy Progressive Metal | As marked on the disk box, this band features Labyrinth members. Yes, it's
true and musical direction is close to Labyrinth, but it's not a copy,
that's good. But in other respects music doesn't have anything original,
it brings us already known sound. |
| OHM | OHM: Chris Poland, Robertino Pagliari, David Eagle | 2003 | Lion Music ID: LMC 069 |  | Progressive Metal | While there are people in the world who don't afraid to create instrumental music I'll live peacefully knowing that the real musicians still exist. This music as is usually for Prog instrumental albums is between experimental Jazz Rock and Melodic acoustic music. |
| Ojeda, Eddie | Axes 2 Axes | 2005 | Black Lotus Records ID: irond cd 06-dd345 |  | Hard Heavy Metal | Eddie invited many famous musicians for this album, so there weren't any Twisted Sister's similarities though Mr. Snider didn't forget to take part on this project also. The music is mid-tempo Hard&Heavy with many musical influences from 70s. |
| Old Man's Child | Born of the Flickering | 1996 | Century Media Records |  | Metal | |
| Old Man's Child | The Pagan Prosperity | 1997 | Century Media Records |  | Metal | |
| Old Man's Child | Ill-Natured Spiritual Invasion | 1998 | Century Media Records |  | Metal | |
| Old Man's Child | In Defiance of Existence | 2002 | Century Media Records ID: fo208cd |  | Melodic Death Black Metal | It's a clone of Dimmu Borgir, Catamenia, etc. It's loud and fast music with all attributes of Melodic Black/Death. This album has no originality, there is high quality only there. |
| Oliver - Dawson Saxon | Re://Landed | 2000 | Phoenix Music ID: cdm 0701-619 |  | Heavy Metal | |
| Oliver, Graham | End of an Era | 2001 | Angel Air Records ID: SJPCD085 |  | Blues Hard Rock | Everything but Hendrix songs is more or less pop Hard Rock/Hard&Heavy with the modern influences of pop Rock and Alternative. And you don't find any Saxon touches! |
| Olvi | T'ma I Svet (Darkness And Light) | 2006 | CD-Maximum ID: cdm 0805-2583 |  | Melodic Heavy Metal | Suddenly this unknown band approves itself as very interesting Melodic Metal band. It's not only memorable songs with the good refrains but there is very good guitar work there also. |
| Olympos Mons | Conquistador | 2004 | Limb Music Products ID: LMP 0410-071 CD |  | Melodic Power Metal | Yes, I'm going to repeat the words about Power Metal bands which play
melodic music in the classic traditions. It's a mixture of Helloween,
Gamma Ray, etc. It's just good music, there isn't anything special on this
album. |
| Omen | Eternal Black Dawn | 2003 | Mausoleum Records ID: HEL280 |  | Melodic Heavy Metal | This album is based on epical US Heavy Metal of 80s and on Iron Maiden traditions. The music is not fast, I think that the band position on this album is to revive Heavy of 80s again. |
| Omen | The Curse / Nightmares | 1996 | Metal Blade Records ID: 3984-14216-2 |  | Speed Heavy Metal | These are 2 albums on 1 CD. Probably, I chose not good time for listening to these albums, but I became tired very much while listening and I just waited impatiently for the end of the album. The music is Heavy with many Speed parts, every track (I hope it's just my preconceived opinion and it will change in the future after next listeninng) looks like other tracks of this relese. |
| Onward | Reawaken | 2002 | Century Media Records ID: CM 1183-2 |  | Melodic Heavy Power Progressive Metal | This band differs from other modern US bands. It makes me glad that such
bands still live in US. This band can be compared e.g. with Prog-oriented
Iced Earth,
Edguy's young blood and of course with Loudness whose track Onward
performed on this album. |
| Onward | Evermoving | 2001 | Century Media Records ID: CM 1127-2 |  | Melodic Heavy Power Metal | What a pity that this album is so short! This band is worthy of having many full length albums with the placer of the brilliant songs. Though this band is based on Iron Maiden rhythm, musicians' work is wonderful, the tunes are great. |
| Opeth | Still Life | 1999 | Peaceville Records |  | Metal | |
| Ophelia's Dream | Not a Second Time | 2004 | Kalinkaland Records ID: irond cd 04-918 |  | Melodic | Sopor Aeternus work lives in the hearts of not the only one man (you understand who I mean), this music causes the ideas incarnated in Ophelia's Dream. The music that I say about is not funeral or over-crying (this music without verbal vocals almost at all, the vocals are female, they're just a-a-a), but in other respects it's melodious instrumental music in the spirit of Sopor Aeternus. |
| Opus Atlantica | Opus Atlantica | 2002 | Regain Records ID: cdm 0903-1500 |  | Melodic Speed Power Metal | It's a variations on Rhapsody theme. Music is powerful and pretty enough
but the tunes are made from Rhapsody tunes. They are not Italians (they're
from Sweden) so this version is possible to listen to with pleasure. |
| Oracle | As Darkness Reigns | 1993 | Massacre Records ID: MASS CD 012 |  | Power Heavy Progressive Metal | They unite US Heavy of 80s and US Power + Fates Warning elements. The music
is great, as gloomy as Mercyful Fate, as powerful as Iced Earth, as
interesting as Oracle itself. A vocalist and a guitarist try very much to
play the music and they do it perfectly! |
| Oracle Sun | Deep Inside | 2005 | Scarlet Records ID: SC 114-2 |  | Melodic Speed Power Metal | Making more precise - it's ITALIAN Melodic Speed&Power, so all words
were told about this band. It's a project of other known Italian bands'
members with the typical sound and with the typical for Italian music
vocals. |
