As part of Amazon’s monthly $5 MP3 album deals for October 2012, Scorpions‘ Blackout is on sale for only $5.

If you would like a physical copy of Blackout, the CD is available for only $5.99.

Blackout was the eighth studio album by German metal gods Scorpions, which is hard enough to fathom as we thought they were this “great new band” by the time their distinctly melodic hard rock sound reached our tender pre-teen American ears in 1982. Harder still to fathom: this album is 30 years old and still sounds amazeballs! Blackout is as familiar as your favorite well-washed rock tee shirt with tracks such as “No One Like You,” “When the Smoke is Going Down,” and the title track “Blackout.”

As part of Amazon’s monthly $5 MP3 album deal for October 2012, System of a Down‘s Toxicity is on sale for only $5.

If you would like a physical copy of Toxicity, the CD is available for only $6.99.

Toxicity is the second studio album from Armenian-by-way-of-L.A. prog-metal band System of a Down. The album was released a week before the terrorist attacks on 9/11 and debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard album chart. Due to politically sensitive lyrics on the hit song “Chop Suey!” (“I don’t think you trust in my self-righteous suicide”), the song was immediately taken off the airwaves, though it did earn the group a Grammy nomination. Other hits on this album include “Aeriels” and the title track “Toxicity.”

As part of Amazon’s monthly $5 MP3 album deals for October 2012, Weezer‘s Weezer is on sale for only $5.

If you would like a physical copy of Weezer, the CD is available for only $8.97.

Not to be confused with Weezer‘s other self-titled album (also called “The Blue Album”), which marked their 1994 debut, Weezer was released in 2001 and marked the quirky band from L.A.’s re-emergence on alternative rock radio. It is also known as “The Green Album” because of the bright green album cover. Notable tracks include “Hash Pipe” and “Island in the Sun.”

As part of Amazon’s monthly $5 MP3 album deals for September 2012, The Hives‘ Lex Hives is on sale for only $5.

If you would like a physical copy of Lex Hives, the CD is available for only $10.91.

Released in June 2012, Lex Hives is the fifth studio album by Swedish garage rockers The Hives. Containing boisterous, pogo-worthy sing-alongs such as “Come On” and “Go Right Ahead,” Lex Hives took five years to produce as it was the band’s first self-produced effort. Frontman Howlin’ Pelle Almqvist said in an interview, “Rather than squeeze in some studio time, we could go in to the studio whenever we wanted. It turns out that having five producers who have an equal say of everything isn’t that fast.” And if that riff from “Go Right Ahead” sounds familiar, it’s not your imagination. After The Hives recorded the song, they realized it sounded just like Electric Light Orchestra’s “Don’t Bring Me Down” so they called up Jeff Lynne of ELO, got his blessing and shared the songwriting credit with him on Lex Hives.
