| Zandelle | Twilight of Humanity | 2002 | Limb Music Products
ID: LMP 0209-042 CD |  | Heavy Metal | This US band follows the way of Manilla Road and other epic US bands of 80s. Their music sometimes is close to Power but the songs aren't fast, it's epical US Heavy, almost from 80s... | |
| Zanister | Symphonica Millennia | 1999 | Leviathan Records |  | Heavy Power Metal | The musicians mix so many things here that I sat and told fortunes what the parts sounding looked like in every individual case. There were Helloween, Gamma Ray, Stratovarius, etc. parts there, but there were not their copies, they just sounded like these bands. Really music is very interesting and strong. It's guitar music with 2 guitarists and very powerful vocalist (his voice depends to Heavy of 80s). | |
| Zanister | Fear No Man | 2001 | Leviathan Records
ID: RBR/LCR 2680 | | Heavy Metal | Ugh, this band made me wonder - I didn't fall asleep to the end of the album (or just after the beginning...). I listen to all new disks when I'm going to sleep,I don't miss this one. Though it's not very fast or loud music, guitar work is very impressive. | |
| ZAR | Live Your Life Forever | 1990 | Hurricane Records
ID: HUR 001-8 |  | AOR Glam Heavy Metal | | |
| ZAR | Hard to the Beat | 2003 | MTM Music
ID: amg 119 | | AOR Hard Rock | So... I have to describe AOR again... All these albums remind me something very very familiar, that I can't remember because all AOR reminds something every time. This album differs from others in good guitar work, but in general is just good AOR work. | |
| Zardanadam | Korsan | 2002 | selfproduction | | Melodic Pop Rock | Turkish bands are always melodic bands and it doesn't depend on the music style. Though it's trendy pop Rock, nevertheless it's easy to listening to with some interest. | |
| Zarpa | Inferno | 2004 | Karthago Records
ID: KR 008 |  | Melodic Heavy Metal | Probably, this is the band that stays behind other good Spanish bands like Tierra Santa or even Mago de Oz as a senior brother. This music is splendid though it has simple structure and notes entanglement. Sometimes this music is with Power elements, anyway it's classic wonderful Heavy without any modern things. | |
| Zaxas | Zaxas | 1995 | Noise Records
ID: N 0253-2UX | | Power Metal | | |
| Zeal Camera | Set the Sun in Me | 2002 | selfproduction
ID: ZC-0001 | | Heavy Metal | It's a self-produced album so don't judge it strictly though it's Japanese band and all Japanese should be of high quality. Music is with classic Japanese melodic elements. In other respects it's standard music for 80s. | |
| Zed Yago | From Over Younder | 1988 | Steamhammer
ID: 85-7522 |  | Heavy Metal | This album unites Accept, Rainbow (Dio time) + some Grave Digger tunes of the 90s. This band is as great as many other German Heavy bands who live on Metal scene up to now and who left Metal scene years ago... | |
| Zen | Gaze into the Light | 1997 | Music Is Intelligence
ID: WMMS 125 |  | Progressive Metal | | |
| Zero Nine | Blank Verse | 1982 | | | Hard Rock | It's early Deep Purple totally. But what else could it be, if this album was produced by Ian Gillan? There are good tunes, musician works, etc. there, it's just kind old music. | |
| Zero Nine | Headline | 1984 | | | Hard Heavy Metal | In general this band rises from Uriah Heep Music (music itself and Hammond), but there are many other good influences of Deep Purple and AC/DC there. The music, the musician works and skills are very high, the melodious elements are very interesting and even original. | |
| Zero Nine | Visions, Scenes And Dreams | 1982 | Finnely
ID: 8573-86572-2 | | Hard Rock | Finnish version of Uriah Heep+Deep Purple music still drives this band. It's nice Hard Rock of 70s with old Hammond, with old good remembrances. | |
| Zillion | Zillion | 2004 | Frontiers Records
ID: cdm 0804-1984 | | Melodic Hard Heavy Metal | Maybe I'm wrong and it's just Hard Rock, but there are no AOR elements on this album, and musical technique is higher than AOR or simple Hard Rock. The musicians are famous, the music is good, this is everything what we need. | |
| Ziras, Theodore | Virtual Virtuosity | 2003 | Secret Port Records
ID: SPR 0009 | | instrumental Melodic Power Metal | Malmsteen. Only Malmsteen. Nothing but Malmsteen. Though it includes
MacAlpine blues elements. Probably, this Malmsteenism is close to early
works of a musician whom I mentioned about many times because of
instrumental music only on Ziras album. But this album has got faster
rhythm than that of Malmsteen albums, so it's real Power which everybody
plays. Of course this musician has got good technique and he's done good
work, but I myself can play arpeggios fast, I can't be surprised with it,
I need original music. | |
| Zoetrope | Amnesty | 1985 | Combat Records
ID: 66048-2 | | Heavy Thrash Metal | Don't hope to hear classic Thrash, you'll find other classic here - early Metallica and Motorhead with some Rock'n'Rollish Punk elements - sometimes music is free-and-easy enough. About originality - it's not very original, but this band is more pleasant to listen to than some other Motorhead clones. | |
| Zonata | Tunes of Steel | 1999 | Century Media Records | | Melodic Speed Power Metal | | |
| Zonata | Reality | 2001 | Century Media Records
ID: CM 1149-2 | | Melodic Speed Power Metal | | |
| Zonata | Buried Alive | 2002 | Century Media Records
ID: fo178cd | | Power Metal | There is some Prog here. If you add some speed and and some hardness to
their endless keyboards, change vocals into growl you obtain Melodic
Death
(there is nothing from Death in their music). They plays better, more
complex and more original with every passing day. | |
| Zool | Zool | 2002 | Lucretia Records
ID: cdm 0702-938 | | Hard Heavy Metal | | |
