This month the classic T. Rex album Electric Warrior is available for $5 as part of Amazon.com’s 1,000 MP3 albums for $5.

Also available in the sale for only $5 each are other T. Rex albums: The Slider, Dandy In The Underworld, Bolan’s Zip Gun, Zinc Alloy & The Hidden Riders Of Tomorrow.

As part of Amazon.com’s huge 1000 MP3 albums for $5 each sale, you can get Anthrax‘s Worship Music for the low price of $5.

After a gap of eight years, New York thrashers Anthrax needed to put out an album that would make the fans forgive them for such a break. Worship Music was not only one of the best metal albums of last year, it is one of the best Anthrax albums of all time. Returning “˜classic era’ lead vocalist Joey Belladonna is back belting out brilliant new tracks like “Earth On Hell,” “Fight “˜Em “˜Til You Can’t,” and “In The End”. One of the best albums of last year. Well worth your $5.

During the month of August Amazon has not 100, but 1000 albums for $5 each in MP3 format

Korn‘s third album, the breakthrough Follow The Leader is part of the deal and you can pick it up (well, download it) for only $5 (the CD is available for $8.55).

Containing the essential Korn tracks like “Freak On A Leash” and “Got The Life,” lead singer Jonathan Davis was at his darkest most introspective best with the haunting “Pretty” and “Dead Bodies Everywhere.” The clacking slap-bass of Reginald “˜Fieldy’ Arvizu, the heavy, abrasive guitars of Brian “˜Head’ Welch and James “˜Munky’ Shaffer and the crushing drums of David Silveria really came together for their best album. Korn was trying to regenerate metal and further the influences of hip hop within the genre and came up with a monster of an album.

This month Pantera‘s The Best of Pantera: Far Beyond the Great Southern Cowboys’ Vulgar Hits! is available as part of Amazon’s mammoth 1000 MP3s for $5 each deal.

It’s hard to overstate Pantera’s influence on the heavy metal landscape. Phil Anselmo‘s harsh, aggressive vocals bouncing on Dimebag Darrell‘s razor-sharp guitar licks all riding on bassist Rex Brown and drummer Vinnie Paul‘s impossibly heavy groove gave metal a much needed kick up the you-know-what. They originally began as a glam metal band (good luck finding those first four albums), but it was their work of the late “˜80s and early “˜90s that warrants your attention on The Best of Pantera: Far Beyond the Great Southern Cowboys’ Vulgar Hits! including tracks such as “Cowboys From Hell,” “Mouth For War,” “5 Minutes Alone,” and “Revolution Is My Name.”

Metallica. One of the biggest metal bands on the planet. Surrounded by layers of PR, management, assistants, groupies and crew. Everyone one wants a slice of the four piece from “˜Frisco.

In the bedroom of his West Country home Tom Spicer proudly wears his Metallica t-shirts, collects their music and head-bangs along to it (“Enter Sandman” is his favourite), but Tom is not your average metal head. Tom has Fragile X syndrome, a condition described by his sister Kate Spicer as “autism with bells on.” For the last twenty years Tom has made his dream clear to his family telling them regularly, “Wanna meet Lars, wanna meet Lars.” Lars Ulrich is of course Metallica’s drummer and Mission To Lars, directed by James Moore and Tom’s younger brother Will Spicer, documents the Spicer siblings embarking on a road trip so that Tom can meet his hero.
