ZKeepers of the Sign

1999

Jamco Records 

Melodic Hard Heavy Metal

Z is the last letter of the alphabet but actually it isn't the last band in Dio style. It's really superb Melodic Hard&Heavy with Dio-like vocals and the music corresponding to such music.

ZandelleTwilight 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...

ZandelleVengeance Rising

2006

Limb Music Products
ID: LMP 0611-097 CD

Melodic Power Heavy Metal

The keepers of US epical Melodic Heavy is still with us, this work is more powerful and melodious. It's very interesting and catching work, sometimes it reminds me of Heavens Gate.

ZanisterSymphonica 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).

ZanisterFear 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.

ZARLive Your Life Forever

1990

Hurricane Records
ID: HUR 001-8

AOR Glam Heavy Metal

 
ZARHard to the Beat

2003

MTM Music
ID: amg 119

AOR Hard Rock

So... I have to describe AOR again... All these albums remind me of something very very familiar, that I can't remember because all AOR reminds me of something every time. This album differs from others in good guitar work, but in general is just good AOR work.

ZardanadamKorsan

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.

ZarpaInferno

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.

ZarpaEl Yunque Contra el Martillo

2007

Karthago Records
ID: KR026

Melodic Heavy Metal

Excellent Spanish Melodic Metal on Spanish language - that is this Zarpa's album. There are the good songs on the album which always are nice to hear.

ZaxasZaxas

1995

Noise Records
ID: N 0253-2UX

Power Metal

 
Zeal CameraSet 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 YagoFrom Over Yonder

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...

ZenGaze into the Light

1997

Music Is Intelligence
ID: WMMS 125

Progressive Metal

 
Zero NineBlank 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 NineHeadline

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 NineVisions, 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.

ZillionZillion

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.

Zimmer's HoleWhen You Were Shouting at the Devil...We Were in League with Satan

2008

Century Media Records
ID: myst cd 339

Death Thrash Speed Metal

I think this band is one of few heroi-comic bands which comically parody many fully sides of Metal bands' cliches. This band plays music from Speed to Death, Speed parts reminds me of Exciter a bit.

Zimmer's HoleBound by Fire

1997

Century Media Records
ID: mzr cd 438

Death Thrash Metal

The first my thought is that this band is a brutal variant of S.O.D. It's a comic(?) or a mock(?) music with many not musical parts, with the sound effects or gossip.

Zimmer's HoleLegion of Flames

2001

Century Media Records
ID: mzr cd 439

Death Thrash Metal

The music of this album is similar to the first band's work but some additional variety. This release also has some Black and Punk elements including just more sensible music.

Ziras, TheodoreVirtual 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.

Ziras, TheodoreHypepyrexiA

Secret Port Records
ID: SR-0068

instrumental Melodic Heavy Metal

Such albums usually call 'neoclassic', it's true if you see the sticker on the box - 'neoclassic' you already know tentatively what's inside. Plus this album sounds suspiciously like Dream Theater, because of Sherinian participation on this work only?

Ziras, TheodoreTerritory 4

2009

Sleaszy Rider Records
ID: SR-0084

instrumental Melodic Progressive Heavy Metal

It's a surprisingly successful album for my ears. It seems this instrumental music is more keys-oriented than guitar-oriented, the songs are complex enough and nevertheless they are very interesting.

ZnowhiteAct of God

1988

RoadRunner Records
ID: RRD9587

Speed Metal

You've never heard such Speed Metal I think. It's not Agent Steel or Living Death, it's a completely another sound. Sometimes I guess they sound in Metal Church key.

ZoetropeAmnesty

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.

Power Metal

There is some Prog here. If you add some speed and and some hardness to their endless keyboards, change the vocals into growl you obtain Melodic Death (actually there is nothing from Death in their music). They plays better, more complex and more original with every passing day.
