Drakkard – Les Mystères de la Vie (1986)

Extremely obscure release from France, with a bit more melodic kick to the songwriting when compared with other french metal bands that are featured on the blog.  Regardless of this, this album is quite the surprise and the keyboards sure do help forge the overall atmosphere that Drakkard are known for.  Rest assured, this is one album that you do not want to overlook.

Highlights: “He Tom”, “Le Jouet”
