Album of the Week #40: Manilla Road - Out of the Abyss (1988) -- 35th Anniversary

The Bardic songs of old

Of warriors brave and bold

Still echo magic in their rhyme

What this is:

This is a discussion thread to share thoughts, memories, or first impressions of albums which have lived through the decades. Maybe you first heard this when it came out or are just hearing it now. Even though this album may not be your cup of tea, rest assured there are some really diverse classics and underrated gems on the calendar. Use this time to reacquaint yourself with classic metal records or be for certain you really do not "get" whatever record is being discussed.

These picks will not overlap with the r/metal AOTWs.
