IN THEIR OWN WORDS:
High Roller Records is a traditional heavy metal label from Germany and a fixture on the music scene since 2003.

We ourselves are a small team consisting of true die-hard fans, and we have made it our passion to preserve our favorite music forever and distribute it worldwide.
HRR stands for outstanding new releases from established as well as talented new rock/metal bands and is the number one when it comes to high-quality, audiophile reissues of eternal NWOBHM, heavy metal, doom metal, thrash metal, speed metal, punk, and rock classics, as well as forgotten gems.
In addition, we offer one of the world's most comprehensive vinyl/CD/tape (MC) mail-order selections (NWOBHM, Heavy/Power/Doom/Speed/Thrash/Death/Black Metal, Punk, Rock, Grindcore, Hardcore, etc.), featuring both underground releases and releases from the scene's biggest names.
With over 15,000 items, every rock music lover will find what they're looking for!

OPINION:
Probably my favorite mail order site right now, and right up there among the best as a label.

As a mailorder, I think they are the most complete one I have encountered in the last 10-20 years when it comes to physical media (I’m a vinyl collector). With complete I mean they cover the entire ”Metal Spectra”, from Hard Rock to Black Metal. There are a lot of smaller distros and mailorders out there in metal land, but most focus on one thing, like only Death/Black or only Hard Rock/Heavy Metal etc. So I often end up with buying other smaller labels releases here instead of in their on webshops to save on postage. And speaking of postage and shipping. High Roller are fast as well. The other day I ordered around 10 vinyls and in 36 hours I had received the package. From Germany to Sweden, that’s faster than all domestic mail orders here.
As a label they release a lot of awesome stuff in the old traditional metal sphere. Both re-releases and new bands. As you might know, I’m more or less only interested in the pre-2000’s stuff. So when they release a compilation of an old N.W.O.B.H.M. bands complete discography, I’m all over it. The Desolation Angels boxset, Manilla Roads back catalogue, Jaguar, Urchin, Destruction, Kreators early demo material etc. etc. All awesome stuff.
