| V8 Wankers | The Demon Tweak | 2005 | Rude Records ID: rude 006 |  | Hard Rock | It's Rock'n'Rollish music with many repetitions in Motorhead style. This music is just for distraction someone's mind from the modern Metal streams which captivated world music as it is. |
| Vai, Steve | Fire Garden | 1996 | Epic Records ID: 485062 2 |  | Metal | |
| Vainglory | 2050 | 2001 | Leviathan Records ID: RBR/LCR 2750 |  | Melodic Power Heavy Progressive Metal | It's unexpectedly fast music from the band sheltered by irrepressible David Chastain. The guitars are similar to Friedman of Megadeth era. In general it's very good release especially because of just wonderful guitar works and melodic arrangements. |
| Valentines | Bon Scott with the Valentines - The Early Years | 1991 | C-Five Records ID: C5CD 520 |  | Rock | |
| Valhalla | Nightbreed | 2003 | GoiMusic ID: GOI 2003 16 |  | Melodic Speed Power Metal | It's a mixture of everything except originality. You may find here
Rhapsody, Gamma Ray/Iron Savior, Judas Priest/Primal Fear, Manowar - these
bands are very good, but it's not interesting to listen to their pale
copy. |
| Valiance | Wayfaring | 2002 | Black Lotus Records ID: MHR 086 |  | Power Metal | This music isn't typical for Italy, it's close to Blind Guardian with some Prog and some Melodic elements. About sound: I don't undertake to rise this band over others, but this music can like not only for few persons. |
| Valkija | Avengers of Steel | 2004 | Sonic Age Records ID: SARECD 001 |  | Heavy Power Metal | Do you miss early Oliva's high-pitched screams? You have a chance to listen to them again on this album! No, there isn't real Oliva on this release but the female vocals (which sound like the male vocals) sometimes are very similar. In general this music can be described as Savatage (because of the vocals) and Metal Church with some powerful elements typical for the bands from 80s. |
| Valkyria | Valkyria | 1993 | Death City Records |  | experimental Thrash Progressive Metal | Yes, everything knows about experiments in Progressive Metal, it's no miracle to listen to Thrash/Prog, but Progressive experiments in Thrash is something new. The music is fast and slow, let it be Kreator as Thrash example, I don't say examples for experimental Prog, but I note that some tracks with the keys remind me of Bal-Sagoth. |
| Valley's Eve | Deception of Pain | 2002 | Limb Music Products ID: LMP 0302-039 CD |  | Heavy Progressive Metal | Is it Limb again? Oh, this album corresponds to it. This one is close to Iced Earth (in Heavy format), or it's a mixture of Sinner, Accept, Elegy, etc. I found there many repetitions of the riffs and music of other bands... |
| Valley's Eve | The Atmosphere of Silence | 1999 | B.Mind Records ID: 27003 |  | Melodic Progressive Power Heavy Metal | These songs just pour on you, I haven't heard such excellent Melodic Prog long ago! It's enough to listen to just the vocals and the guitar solos there! |
| Vanden Plas | AcCult | 1996 | Dream Circle Records |  | Progressive Metal | |
| Vanden Plas | The God Thing | 1997 | InsideOutMusic |  | Progressive Metal | |
| Vanden Plas | Far Off Grace | 1999 | InsideOutMusic |  | Progressive Metal | |
| Vanden Plas | Beyond Daylight | 2001 | InsideOutMusic |  | Progressive Metal | |
| Vanden Plas | Christ 0 | 2006 | InsideOutMusic ID: IOMCD 239 |  | Progressive Metal | This album unites not only different Progressive musical streams but melodic music also, it's not often event for true Progressive bands. This album is close to Dream Theater of 90s - not very heavy melodic Progressive. |
| Vanishing Point | Tangled in Dream | 2000 | Limb Music Products ID: LMP 0011-024 CD |  | Power Progressive Heavy Metal | |
| Vanishing Point | In Thought | 1997 | Samson Productions ID: SKAN 8216.AR |  | Heavy Progressive Power Metal | We can meet a talent band not very often but when it happens... Vanishing Point indeed is a very good band that's able to unite Melodic, Heavy and Progressive in very interesting and original music. |
| Vanishing Point | Embrace the Silence | 2005 | Dockyard 1 |  | Melodic Heavy Power Progressive Metal | Who else tries to support of Australian music prosperity? AC/DC only? No, Vanishing Point's still alive and plays European music, melodic music, powerful music - in other words, it's still that interesting music which nominated this band on the high level of the world fame. |
| Vanishing Point | The Fourth Season | 2007 | Dockyard 1 ID: DY 100382 |  | Melodic Heavy Power Metal | It's very good that the band didn't change anything in the music and still play Melodic Heavy with Power and Progressive elements. Keep it up! |
| Vanitas | Das Leben ein Traum | 2000 | CCP Records ID: cdm 1101-748 |  | Doom Gothic Metal | |
| Vanitas | Der Schatten Einer Existenz | 2002 | CCP Records ID: cdm 0302-812 |  | Doom Gothic Metal | |
| Vanize | Bootlicker | 1999 | Breaker Records ID: SPV 085-57382 CD |  | Heavy Metal | Dirkschneiders' family hasn't got a quietness. It's absolutely U.D.O./Accept-like music (and vocal, of course) but music is more powerful. Sometimes it's melodic, but usually it's like Primal Fear. |
| Vanize | Highproof | 2000 | Breaker Records ID: NB 536-2 |  | Heavy Metal | This Dirkschneider family's guy is Udo completely, he's also with Brian Johnson intonations. The music is total Accept and U.D.O. I think this band hasn't anything that is possible to discuss. |
| Vanize | Raw | 2006 | Dee Productions ID: myst cd 020 |  | Heavy Metal | It's still a mixture of Accept and Judas Priest. This band did nothing to be original, they just follow the way of their big brother with an addition of Judas Priest sound. |
| Various Artists | A Tribute to Judas Priest vol. 2 | 1996 | Century Media Records ID: 77125-2 |  | Metal | No comment. |
| Various Artists | A Tribute to Led Zeppelin | 2002 | Locomotive Music |  | Power Metal | It's very delicious tribute (but what do you want - it's Led Zeppelin...). Unlike Nuclear Blast tributes almost all tracks of this one were recorded specially for this tribute. I can select outstanding Ian Parry vocals (Elegy) on 'Rock And Roll' and superb (in my opinion the best track of the tribute) - No Quarter by Grave Digger. |
| Various Artists | A Tribute to the Voice of Metal: Ronnie James Dio | 1999 | Century Media Records |  | Power Metal | No comment. |
