Reviews:
The album's reception was generally positive. The album's description on Roadrunnerrecords.com stated: "The performance was absolutely electric, in typical Slipknot fashion, especially since it came hot on the heels of one of the strongest years in Slipknot’s illustrious career." Rick Florino from Artistdirect gave the album five out of five stars. Florino introduced the DVD by writing: "it's an eerie, engaging and utterly entrancing collection of violently vibrant vignettes showing the greatest metal band of the 21st century at the top of their game—and the genre." Scott Alisoglu from Blabbermouth.net gave the album eight and a half out of ten stars. He called it the "ultimate tribute" to bassist Paul Gray. He also noted that things like display of controlled echos, the 80,000 person audience, their energetic performances of songs from their first album, and the "unforgettable anthems" like "Before I Forget" and "Psychosocial" came together to "remind naysayers and fans alike that Slipknot has a dearth of rivals when it comes to live performance." The DVD was released on September 28, 2010 sold 9,300 copies in the United States in its first week. It peaked at number one on the Billboard Top Music Videos chart.

I think "Wait And Bleed" is a masterpiece and very uplifting song of Slipknot, you should definitely have in your metal music archive.

Dalriada – Igeret

Dalriada is a folk metal band from Hungary that was formed in 2003. They were formerly known as Echo of Dalriada until 2007. Their fourth studio album Szelek in 2008 was a chart success in their country, peaking at the second position on the official Mahasz music charts.

The new album looks like very pleasant in the cover, however I expect something very dark and dirty when you talk about metal music !

Product Description For Dalriada - Igeret
The roots of the hungarian folk metal band Dalriada reach back to the year of 1998, when forming member and band leader Andras Ficzek starteda heavy metal band in the West-Hungarian town of Sopron. In the following years he gathered several young and talented musicians to follow hisvision of heavy metal combined with death, thrash and most important folk elements combined. After the first years of experimenting, DALRIADAwas formed in Sopron in February 2003 with the intention of combining metal and Hungarian folklore, thus fostering the incredibly rich heritage ofHungarian folk art. Due to the broad range of influences some elements of death and gothic metal found their way into the bands unique style.The word Dalriada is the historical name of the first kingdom of the Scots, but based on some linguistic studies it may have an ancient Hungarianorigin with the meaning of battle-song. In the first years the band called itself Echo Of Dalriada in order emphasize the Hungarian meaning, butat the beginning of 2007 the name was simplified to Dalriada. All the lyrics are in Hungarian and sometimes use the works of the famousHungarian poet Janos Arany. Here again authenticity and their Hungarian heritage is most important to the band. Lyrics and music form an artisticunity.

Fan Review: Great Album 4 out of 5
Warning: I am a fan of this man (and the band which, incidentally, in those days also was called "Gillan"), so do not expect me to be objective. Maybe not a "masterpiece" (by Gillan standards only) but still the album rocked like nothing did at the time (which is 1981) and it still rocks! Also, Gillan's lyrics is the wittiest and funniest of all Purple and Purple-derived line-ups. OK, the "classic"
