Good choice for novices.......1999-11-18

After stumbling acorss Cradle of Filth, I became a metal fanatic. I bought this CD because I wanted learn about the different bands, and I was not disappointed. While many of the songs didn't do it for me, there were several tracks that are among my favorites today, especially Hecate Enthroned's "Spell of the Winter Forest". They are now one of my favorite bands, as well as Emperor ("Thus Spake..." is excellent), Lord Belial, Diabolical Masquerade, Enslaved and Old Man's Child. If you already know about these bands then this CD is not for you. But if you are just starting out I do recommend the entire Blackend series.

Fodder for posers...........1999-10-28

Blackend Volume 3 is best described as a totally worthless compilation, along with Volume 4 of the series and the equally redundant "Gods of Darkness" compilation on Nuclear Blast. Like all the other Blackend compilations, Volume 3 is a dubious purchase; totally devoid of unreleased/rare tracks, this is nothing really more than a pair of coasters with some of the most commercial happy-metal and Norsecore in existence on it. The only saving graces provided are from Enthroned, Usurper, and Amduscias; other than that, this CD is nothing to excite any underground aficianado. Had a compilation of this type been released prior to 1996, it might have generated some excitement and been relevant to those who like the now long-dead Scandinavian metal scene. But it's 1999, so it seems that Metal Blade/Blackend are extremely tardy in exploiting stupidity.
