Ditto, I have copies of plenty, and originals of Crystal Logic and Gates of Fire, but I really need proper copies, especially of Mystification and Open the Gates.

I've got "Mark of the Beast" which I think is meant to be the "lost" second album,originally from the early 80's although that might not be altogether accurate as I haven't read the sleevenotes for awile.

Yep, you're correct, and probably one of the best Manilla Road albums!

1. Open the Gates
2. Mark of the Beast
3. Mystification
4. Crystal Logic
5. Metal
6. The Deluge (I need a copy!!!)
7. Out of the Abyss
8. Gates of Fire
9. Invasion
10. Atlantis Rising

Probably one of the best bands ever! I cannot wait to hear Voyager, I just bought it yesterday!

Flaming Metal System is brilliant.

Did I just hear him say 'chips of steel'?

I love Crystal Logic-somebody sent it to me as mp3 when I was first getting into metal and it just sucked me right off. It's really strange though, it kinda sounds like people who've never heard metal just trying to play it haha-the vocals and everything are really 70s.

Another band worth checking for you MR fans - LEGEND (us) they released an album called From The Fjords in 1979 - fucking amazing, reminds of Manilla Roads first 2 albums but better!!!!

Crystal Logic is immense, so so good... still need to hear Gates of Fire, Mystification, Out O The Abyss, and Open the Gates.

Courts of CHaos anyone?? Also, has anyone heard any of the newer albums? (namely Atlantis Rising?)

MANILLA ROAD RULE!!!!!

Amazing band and a new album out very soon aswell!

Anyone who digs this lot should also look into Ironsword who are currently working on a second album. To be honest I think Manilla Road are massively underrated, but most of the people who know them at least know them because they know what REAL metal is and don't think the likes of 3 Inches of Blood, Conquest of Steel and The Sword represent it.

I want to see Manilla Road in the UK too, but is there much call for it considering the amount of posers in this nation?
