When in doubt, post some Manilla Road! Here is the long-running metal underdogs' ferocious Poe-themed sixth album, Mystification. Straddling the thin line between traditional heavy metal and thrash, this record is just unbelievably thick, dense, packed with allegory, and darkly resonant. Another flawless gem from a criminally under-appreciated band.
Oh, Prince Prospero
All of your dreams
Fade with your last
Dying breath

I got my first taste of these guys when I scored Crystal Logic from a dollar bin of cassettes at some mall store when I was in middle school. My friends gave me so much shit about the cover art, but something told me that I had scored something great. I was not wrong. Thanks.
