Hello, Avatar is a Swedish metal band with 10 CDs to their name, including their most recent CD 2025’s “Don’t Go In The Forest”. From my very limited knowledge of their music this is their best CD. But I’ve only listened to two of their ten CDs. I likely wouldn’t have heard of these guys…

(Finished January 16th, 2026) Part 3 of the Top 100 Songs of September 15, 1990
Hello, Thanks to Billboard for this countdown. Wow, this Hot 100 countdown is crazy. As this is late 1990, it’s not surprising that a lot of the 80s spills over into the 90s. But seriously how many boy bands did the early 90s really need. A lot of dance music from the 80s also showed…
