Man, this takes me back...
There was also Mega's Metal Asylum or something, the Vibrations of Doom (I think) website of classic metal albums for streaming in "Real Audio" format and a few other sites that come to mind but can't remember any other names.
Edit: also found this site the other day and was surprised to see it's still alive. |

This is great! Brings back so much nostalgia. That baphomet rating system makes me feel like a teenager again!

| It's always interesting for me to see what people liked and disliked back then. Bands like CoF usually got top ratings, while the more cultish stuff got lower scores for having "poor sound". Took my generation a while to get adjusted to lo-fi sound. |

| The True Norwegian was small but nice site with some samples. Would be great to re-check it from www.archive.org, but don't know the address anymore. |

Oh yeah these sites... back then when you did a search about a band or an album (on Altavista of course) that Marcus Karlsson thing always showed up.
And remember those 100kb Realmedia samples some people put up? They were pretty rad too.
Also, there were these short snuff and scat clips on burzum.org once.
