The first song is a classic of newer True Metal history - utterly perfect as Hammerfall were back then:
Hammerfall - hammerfall (Glory to the Brave)
Next up is a song from the only Samael-Album I really really like - 'infra galaxia' as a hommage to how cool this track sounded live.
Samael - infra galaxia (Eternal)
Let's move on to the woman with the possibly best, most touching and expressive voice of all times.
Connie Francis - napoli (Die Liebe ist ein seltsames Spiel)
Now one of my favourite songs at the moment - we travel to Bulgaria where Preslava is giving us a prototype of Chalga with a chorus for the Gods.
Preslava - obeshtai mi (Pazi se ot priateli)
Next we let villains Belphegor sing one of their odes to the horns. I found this by chance on youtube at work today and was immediately smitten.
Belphegor - belphegor - hell's ambassador (Pestapokalpyse VI)
This is from back in the day when Metal Hammer compilations were still cool and interesting, and you gave it more than one listen.
The Automanic - grow (Flow)
This next lesser known Therion track is from their "Intermediate Album" A'arab Zaraq Lucid Dreaming.
Therion - into remembrance (A'arab Zaraq Lucid Dreaming)
And last but not least, the heavenly Colonia. This will make you wanna go out and dance with your friends. I promise.
Colonia - party on! (Do Kraja)
