| S.O.D. | Speak English Or Die | 1985 | Megaforce Records ID: 99820-2 |  | Hardcore Thrash Metal | | |
| S.O.D. | Bigger Than the Devil | 1999 | Nuclear Blast ID: NB 383-2 |  | Hardcore Thrash Metal | | |
| Sabaton | Primo Victoria | 2005 | Sound Pollution ID: amg 296 |  | Melodic Power Heavy Metal | Based on Manowar ideas this album presents classic or even standard
Scandinavian Power, powerful, more mid-tempo than fast songs. This music's
made professional, so album is not bad for such music. | |
| Sabaton | Attero Dominatus | 2006 | Black Lodge Records ID: amg 310 |  | Melodic Power Metal | This release reminds me of Nightwish (by the music only) and Edguy. This music more or less is on high qualitative level of European Melodic Power. | |
| Sabbat | Mourning Has Broken | 1991 | Noise Records |  | Doom Thrash Metal | It's a boring music, it's unsuccessful Candlemass with Thrash elements. As Thrash it's very good chaotic music but in general they don't like me on this album. | |
| Sabbat | The End of the Beginning (video) | 1990 | Fotodisk Video |  | Thrash Metal | | |
| Sabbat | History of a Time to Come | 1988 | Noise Records ID: NO0992 |  | Thrash Metal | It's very easy just to say about the band with the famous members that it's standard European Thrash. But it's true, it's really that European Thrash in spirit of Kreator (especially by the vocals). | |
| Sabbat (Japan) | Karmagmassacre | 2003 | Iron Pegasus Records ID: I.P.031 |  | Thrash Heavy Metal | It's typical for many Japanese Thrash bands to play not fast chaotic European Thrash, not technical US Thrash, but to play some spectacle based on pompous Heavy and dashing Thrash. Listen to Sabbat and it explains you what I said. | |
| Sabbat (Japan) | ...To Praise the Sabbatical Queen | 2004 | Iron Pegasus Records ID: I.P.038 |  | Thrash Metal | This is a compilation, but the music is really perfect for any Thrash bands. This Sabbat's sound is very close to early Black Metal though it's Thrash in any cases. | |
| Sabbtail | Night Church | 2004 | Massacre Records ID: amg 159 |  | experimental Progressive Heavy Doom Metal | This band welded very good musical mixture. You can find there the parts of Black Sabbath, Rainbow, extreme Prog (e.g. Magna Carta's releases). Hammond and complex Jazzy guitar sound are just an ample garnish for this dish. | |
| Sacrament (US) | Haunts of Violence | 1992 | M8 Records ID: M8D-1115 |  | Thrash Metal | Don't wait for classic US Thrash (of 80s) or even European Thrash of all times, it's not that music. I can describe it as not very fast complex Thrash with Death elements but the music doesn't allow to call it as I say - they digressed from the genre. | |
| Sacred Crucifix | Aeon of Chaos | 2004 | Poison Arrow Records ID: PAR003 CD |  | Death Black Thrash Metal | In my understanding it's something Black/Death with probably some Cradle of Filth influences but with Thrash technique and Death vocals. Unstoppable music makes this album very aggressive and ...aggressive again. | |
| Sacred Sinner | Sacred Sinner | 1999 | Megahard Records ID: MHR 019 |  | Melodic Heavy Power Metal | It's a mixture of Helloween and Iron Maiden (especially by the vocals) with Malmsteen's guitars and some Queensryche elements. The music is good enough to listen to twice or thrice. | |
| Sacred Steel | Reborn in Steel | 1997 | Metal Blade Records |  | Speed Power Metal | I think it would be good band in Speed Metal of 80s style unless terrible, out of tune vocal on this album. In general it's a standard music for US Speed Metal (Agent Steel, etc.) on German Metal scene. | |
| Sacred Steel | Slaughter Prophecy | 2002 | Massacre Records ID: amg 054 |  | Speed Power Metal | It's standard music that sounds very strong, that is the main feature for
this album. A vocalist sings now not so repugnant as he did on the debut
album. | |
| Sacred Steel | Iron Blessings | 2005 | Massacre Records ID: amg 199 |  | Power Metal | Again and again it's the same and the same... I mean the music is so close to other Power bands, that I failed to find small pieces of possible originality on this album. | |
| Sacred Steel | Hammer of Destruction | 2006 | Massacre Records ID: myst cd 205 |  | Speed Power Metal | I don't listen attentively to the vocals, this album is not bad aggressive Speed&Power in the basal traditions of the genre. There is nothing new there but there aren't anything disagreeable there also. | |
| Sad Legend | Sad Legend | 1998 | Hammerheart Records |  | Metal | | |
| Saeko | Above Heaven Below Heaven | 2004 | Armageddon Products ID: AMG 009-0 |  | Heavy Power Metal | Lars Ratz (a producer and guest musician here) decided to recall his Velvet Viper time and support assembly band with female vocalist (I've never heard about her before) and with well-known musicians including musicians from Ratz's current band - Metalium. We got good Heavy, sometimes Power, the slow tracks are catching, so everything is as usual for new bands which appeared to live without any innovations. | |
| Sagittarius | Voice of Doom / Loahpa Jienat | 1993 | Sagittarius Music ID: SACD931 |  | Melodic Progressive Heavy Folk Metal | | |
| Saidian | Phoenix | 2006 | Metal Heaven ID: myst cd 194 |  | Melodic Speed Power Heavy Metal | Band's music is still something from Royal Hunt including Edguy and Nightwish touches. It's a typical music and sound for many modern Melodic Power bands from Germany. | |
| Saidian | ...For Those Who Walk the Path Forlorn | 2005 | Metal Heaven ID: myst cd 111 |  | Melodic Power Heavy Metal | This is not bad Royal Hunt copy, at least the keys arrangements and the keys solos are very similar to Andersen's sound. You find there Stratovarius and Malmsteen touches but all music is the vocals and the keys -oriented, so the main favorite for Saidian is Royal Hunt without doubt. | |
| Salamandra | Twilight of Legends | 1999 | Leviathan Records ID: LVR CD-020 |  | Melodic Speed Power Metal | It's a standard way of mixing of Rhapsody and Gamma Ray. It's good to have Czech bands but what a hell, they aren't original?! Everything isn't original: the guitar solos, the tunes and riffs, only the vocals are not bad. | |
| Samael | Worship Him | 1991 | Osmose Records |  | Metal | | |
| Samael | Ceremony of Opposites | 1994 | Century Media Records |  | Metal | | |
| Samael | Passage | 1996 | Century Media Records |  | Metal | | |
| Samael | Exodus | 1998 | Century Media Records ID: 77210-2 |  | Metal | | |
| Sanguis Et Cinis | Schicksal | 1996 | |  | Metal | | |
| Santa Maria | Sea Serenade | 2001 | Valiant Music Productions ID: VMP-007 |  | Melodic Speed Heavy Metal | It's a local band whose vocalist sings Russian, it's something Rhapsody-ish
with Deep Purple, Doors and some other classical Rock monsters influences.
They thank Gladkov and Rybnikov for training their musical tastes. All the
music is in fact skilful remaking of music of these composers. Music is
devious and very original for almost all the world because almost no one
knows music for local cartoon film 'Musicians of Bremen'. If the
band Rhapsody was asked to perform this album it would be better than the
best Rhapsody album. | |
| Sanvoisen | Exotic Ways | 1994 | Noise Records ID: N 0221-2 |  | Melodic Progressive Power Metal | This is the most tuneful release of all recent ones. It reminds me of
Stratovarius by style and emotions. It's rare thing in the true sense of
the word. | |
