Power Metal Album Covers

By: The Art Collective

WHAT THE HELL IS POWER METAL? Before I get started in showing some of my favorite power metal album covers, I guess I should probably explain what power metal exactly is to those that haven't a clue. You have genres and you have sub-genres. Power Metal is a sub-genre of Heavy Metal. Coming from a 15 year music industry career, with ten of them being at one of the bigger names of record labels of metal music, Earache Records , I've learned not just about metal in general, but also about the sub-genres that exist within the music genre itself. Every music genre now, has sub-genres, where you can have elements of certain styles while creating a new sub-genre as well. First off, heavy metal...some of you probably heard of the genre because of Eddie Munson from Stranger Things and now all of a sudden you guys think you like Metallica (they used to be thrash , then commercial heavy metal, and now...I don't even know what to call them anymore. Anyway)....

Conquer

By: Retro Rob

It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell. Human beings, we have dark sides. We have dark issues in our lives. To progress anywhere in life, you have to face yourself and know that you are in control of your journey. If you don't deal with your demons, they will deal with you, and it will hurt.....

Invincible (Classic)

By: Retro Rob

I cannot die. There is nothing you can do that will ever stop my beating heart. You see, just as long as my heart still beats, blood will flow through my veins, and I will continue to live. And surely, if my heart hasn't been stopped by now, it never will. My heart must be invincible. My heart was your playground for far too long. My heart continues to beat to this day even when you took it for rides that were meant to be still my beating heart. Even when you took it on the ever so scary emotional rollercoaster, my heart still beats. And I am still here. Living. To those of you who stabbed me in the heart, right through my chest, I am here saying to you, there is still blood that courses through my veins. Some of you even stabbed my heart, not through my chest, but stabbed through my back, and yet alive I am still. My heart does bleed, but my heart does still beat. I can understand why all of you would hurt my heart, it is quite the easy target. Often times I imagine it seems as i...

More (IV)

By: Retro Rob

The Shay Saga - Part IV Slowly she's learning that there's more to me than she previously thought. Now she's starting to see the darkness that's been hiding slightly beneath the surface, waiting to be fully unleashed, and yet... She doesn't deserve me. Never has. Never will. She's just a piece of trash to be tossed aside when finished with. She needs to be tied down because I don't want her filthy hands touching me. If she tries to speak, I will choke her until she learns that nothing she says matters. Especially if she tries to say no. That's when she needs a good slap. She's a piece of shit. She's lucky if I only slap her. She's just an object. A toy for my pleasure. I'll push her face into a pillow or wall because she doesn't even deserve to look at me. I will enter her when I want and in any place I want. And I know where she wants me, but she has not earned that yet. She deserves to be spit on, scratched up a...

Hey, Vanessa! It's Me, Night Hag...The Sleep Paralysis Demon

By: The Art Collective

And you may find yourself living in a shotgun shack And you may find yourself in another part of the world And you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile And you may find yourself in a beautiful house, with a beautiful wife And you may ask yourself, "Well, how did I get here?" YOU EVER JUST GET IMMERSED INTO THOSE NEVER ENDING SOCIAL MEDIA RABBIT HOLES? Can't sleep because your sleeping schedule is erratic , almost non-existent, due to stress or whatever ails you, so you find yourself aimlessly browsing on Instagram , discover some sweet accounts, and then you stalk their Follow/Following lists? You're not paying attention to anything like time (at this point, it means nothing to me), and you get yourself deeper and deeper into that clusterfuck of a labyrinth , stumble across an interesting account, and then that account brings you into some weird wasteland of, " what the fuck?! ," wondering, " how in the shit did I get here? ,"...
