The 90s was a strange era for German thrash unit Kreator. The band issued a somewhat ho-hum release to start the decade, followed with an experimetal release that worked, then lashed out with what I consider to be the greatest thrash album of the 90s ... then followed with two below par releases. So a spotty record at best, but one that you can put together a stirring 40 minute best-of playlist, w...

It would be an understatement to say that Swedish unit Entombed were huge in the 90s, seeing that they were considered the next "big thing" in extreme metal. In that decade they went from Swedish death metal kings to death'n'roll innovators, kicking uber-ass along the way. So enjoy this 40 minute playlist focused on the band's pioneering 90s material. Revel in flesh!!! Side One Left Hand Path (199...

Let's go back in time when heavy metal was just beginning to find its legs (after its birth in 1970 with BLACK SABBATH's self-titled debut). Back then hard rock and metal were terms used interchangeably, so don't be surprised to see both represented in this 40-minute curated set of the best hard music made that year. A big salute to 1975 - how about some of that tush!! Side 1 (0:00) "Just What The...

We here at The Mighty Decibel have gone through a love/hate relationship with Styx over the past five decades. The overblown progressive vibes and sickly sweet harmonization creating a push/pull vortex that makes for a turbulent relationship. However, since last year's absolutely mind-blowingly-good Crash of the Crown (our album of the year!), we've definitely been sending good vibes Styx way rece...

Do you appreciate Ted Nugent, but you're knowledge of the gonzo master is limited to the hit singles ("Stranglehold", "Cat Scratch Fever" , "Wang Dang Sweet Poontang", "Free For All" and the like)?

So here (hear?) you go ... 40 minutes of the best Kim Mitchell material for your listening pleas...

You want the best? You got the best ... guitarist, that is. Yep, Frank Marino is the greatest six stringer to have ever abused the instrument, it says here. His axework having no equal, let's not forget the man's fabulous vocals or the excellent Mahogany Rush rhythm section that makes up the Frank Marino & Mahogany Rush combo. So, we here at The Mighty Decibel are happy to provide you now with an...

Some of my fave concert experiences of all times was seeing Ramones live. 60 minutes of non-stop blitzkrieg punk, a nirvana-inducing celebration of punk rock supremacy enjoyed in a sweaty pit. Here we curate the best 40 minutes from the punk rock innovator's golden years ... The 70s. D.U.M.B. everyone's accusing you if you don't go mental while listening to this!!
