Metal Academy Radio Playlist Suggestions - The Pit Edition

Thanks Daniel.  With Sonny on a break if you want to top up your suggestions to a full hour then I am happy to accommodate?  No pressure though as I know you are handling other playlists also.

That's all I've had the chance to listen to over the last month mate. Might just go with that as it's clear that I've been spending most of my listening time filling gaps in my coverage of 1992/93 & I'm sure you've got enough material from that period now anyway.

No worries mate.

Anthrax – “C₁₁ H₁₇ N₂ O₂ S Na” (from “Sound of White Noise”, 1993)

Cavalera – “Inquisition Symphony” (from “Schizophrenia”, 2024)

Tourniquet – “Dysfunctional Domicile” (from “Psycho Surgery”, 1991)

Again open to more if you have them but can see where your listening has been this past month so fine if you can only add the above.

Testament – “Urotdukidoji” (from “Low”, 1994)

Benediction – “Wrong Side of the Grave” (from “Transcend the Rubicon”, 1993)

Coroner – “The Lethargic Age” (from “Grin”, 1993)

Sadist – “Sometimes They Come Back” (from “Above The Light”, 1993)

Testament – “Urotdukidoji” (from “Low”, 1994)

Benediction – “Wrong Side of the Grave” (from “Transcend the Rubicon”, 1993)

Coroner – “The Lethargic Age” (from “Grin”, 1993)

Sadist – “Sometimes They Come Back” (from “Above The Light”, 1993)

Thanks Daniel, that Benediction track is an absolute banger.

Rage - "Sent by the Devil" (from "Black in Mind", 1995)

Hemotoxin - "Malediction" (from "When Time Becomes Loss", 2024)

Extol – “Paradigms” (from “Synergy”, 2003)

Rampage – “Acid Storm” (from “Acid Storm” demo, 1986) [Can be found listed as "Acid Storm, Pt. 2" on the "Veil of Mourn" release]

Hi Vinny. Do you mind if I start making a few suggestions for the monthly Pit playlist again? I know it is too late for December, but maybe starting from January.

Rampage – “Producers Edge” (from “Rampage” demo, 1987) [Can be found on the “Veil of Mourn” album under the title “Producers Edge 2”]

Slaughter Lord – “Legion” (from “Taste of Blood” demo, 1987) [Can be found on the “Thrash till Death” compilation]

Bathory – “Necroticus” (from “Requiem”, 1994)

Hobbs Angel of Death – “Chainsaw Massacre” (from “Angel of Death” demo, 1987) [Can be found on the “Hobb’s Satan’s Crusade” compilation]

Mortal Sin – “Mayhemic Destruction” (from “Mayhemic Destruction”, 1987)

My suggestions for January, Vinny:

Exodus - "A Lesson in Violence" (from "Bonded By Blood", 1985) 

Kreator - "Awakening of the Gods" (from "Flag of Hate" EP, 1986) - Bonus track on "Pleasure To Kill" on Spotify 

Pentagram Chile - "Spell of the Pentagram" (from "The Malefice - Disc 2", 2013) 

Slayer - "Altar of Sacrifice" (from "Reign in Blood", 1986) 

Vulture - "Death Row" (from "Sentinels", 2024)

My suggestions for January, Vinny:

Exodus - "A Lesson in Violence" (from "Bonded By Blood", 1985)

How weird that Altar of Sacrifice is on December's playlist - what are the chances. Could you change my pick to "Jesus Saves" instead, Vinny please. I have always considered the two as being inextricably linked together anyway.

Was anything off the new Nasty Savage album ever on a playlist? If not, Schizoid Platform off the new one.

Hobbs Angel of Death – “The Journey” (from “Virgin Metal Invasion From Down Under” demo, 1988) [Can be found on the “Hobbs Satan’s Crusade” compilation]
