I thought it would be interesting to have a thread where we can talk about the latest music we've bought. Here is my latest ebay purchase. I mostly bought it because of the Fates Warning LP, which has the original artwork that really is as incredibly bad as everyone says. A pretty good deal for less than $4 each, shipping included!

Obsession – Marshall Law: An excellent EP with a heavy Judas Priest vibe. I already owned it, but this copy has the insert.
Fates Warning – Night on Bröcken: Luckily, the music on this is way better than the cover art. They would improve with the next 2 albums, but the first 3 with John Arch on vocals far outshine anything they did with Ray Alder.
Hirax – Raging Violence: Another early record on the Metal Blade label, this has some great songs but most of them kind of sound the same. To give you an idea of the kind of music they play, all 14 songs total less than 30 minutes. Yes, this is pure speed metal!
Venom – Nightmare: I've always thought this band was hugely overrated. This one's going straight into the trade box.
Oz – III Warning: I had always heard that Fire in the Brain was their only good album. However, while that is their best, this one is still pretty good.
Motörhead – Iron Fist: I don't think I need to introduce this classic.
I recently sold a lot of my old computer stuff and a few video games on eBay, so expect to see a few more posts like this!
