SKOL (Cro) - Cista perverzija , lp 1990

Now another request I had here, this is a Croatian band that was active at the end of the 80s/first few years of the 90s, and was part of the Slusaj Najglasnije production roster. Incidentally, other bands from the same label had more success, so here is this album grabbed from the past.The music is a kind of alternative Punk/HC/New Wave Garage Rock (now I told you all, right?) , however very loud and aggressive.

Tracks:
01.Noc
02.Covjek
03.Ona
04.Jurica
05.Kako bih
06.Ravno se drzi
07.Stvarnost
08.Lica
09.On
10.Heroji
11.Svjetlost
12.Zagreb

SKOL - CISTA PERVERZIJA , LP 1990

PROCES (Ser) - Ep tracks + demo tracks 1985

I am sorry I don`t have no pics for this band or this post, but anyway it is a request from you, so here we go.Here are recordings from one of my favourite ex-yu HC band, Proces from Subotica.Don`t blame me if the recordings are not of the highest quality, but that is all I have found, and Proces is a band that I really want to have here on my blog, to show the world we (the ex-Yu territory) really had some very very competitive bands making great music, but living in the wrong country..or maybe not? Enjoy Proces.

Tracks:
01.Nemojte misliti da se slazem
02.Iluzije
03.Bejrut `83
04.Subotica

PROCES - EP TRACKS + DEMO TRACKS 1985

GRUUTHAAGY (Cro) - Terror agenda , demo 200x

Ok, we are running to the end of this year, and I want to leave you in great mood for the next year, so I will be posting today more stuff for you to enjoy until our next meeting, which may be already tomorrow, but that is already next year, so..
Gruuthagy displayed the list of releases he did throughout the years, and believe me, you will rarely find a band/project so active as this one..This is one of the numerous recording he did (I am talking about HE, because it is well known that Gruuthagy is KKTZ and vice versa) and it is a usual weird mixture of music, very aggressive and direct.More to follow, of course..

Tracks:
01.Astral suicide
02.Viva la morte
03.Praise thee lucifire
04.A bullet from beyond
05.Scavenger U.S.A.
06.Take your time and die

GRUUTHAAGY - TERROR AGENDA , DEMO 200x

BOGAMBER (BiH) - Nevjerovanje , cd 2008

This is a Bosnian band which is very popular in the region, playing a kind of Thrash Metal with a strong retro feeling.I don`t like them much, the band with a vocalist who talks (he don`t sing or scream or whatever, he just talks??!!) is not a challenge, the music is excellent, and has a great production, but the vocal tears it all down.They remind me a lot to Bombarder, and you know my feelings about Bombarder, so here is almost the same.I saw them few years ago live as support to Tankard, and it was a great set, with the crowd going totally crazy..if you separate the vocal, the rest is great.

Tracks:
01.Psujevjerje
02.Nevjerovanje
03.Pijandura
04.Nesto ostro zabodeno u glavu
05.Totalno me zbuni
06.Retrogradni pervertit
07.Pren´jelo ga bijelo
08.Napola lud
09.Demonsko opelo
10.Hibernaut
11.Navadili se na rovca
12.Slovo se
13.Na kraju krajeva

BOGAMBER - NEVJEROVANJE , CD 2008

AT WAR (U.S.A.) - Eat lead , demo 1985

At War was a great band, one of the underrated bands of the "heavier" Metal scene.This is their first demo dated 1985, excellent production and great stuff here, a band that surely deserved a higher position in the Metal scene back in the 80s.Well, they play again now, but you have to start from the beginning.

Tracks:
01.Rapechase
02.Eat lead

AT WAR - EAT LEAD , DEMO 1985

THANATOS (Hol) - Speed kills , demo 1985

Oh, yeah, this is surely pure old-school European Thrash Metal, and plus played someway harsh and unprecise, but very loud and Thrashy.This is also an old request, and I am glad I can fulfill your wishes.For old-school metalheads strictly!

Tracks:
01.Prodrome
02.Speed kills
03.The howling
04.Blind obediance
05.Voyage of the damned
06.The knell-Thanatos
07.Obsequies

THANATOS - SPEED KILLS , DEMO 1985

MERCY (Swe) - Swedish Metal , mini-lp 1982

This beauty is an ep of pure NWOBHM made in Sweden! Actually it is the band of a guy with Croatian roots, Andrija Veljaca (R.I.P.) which also sings on this mini-lp, and this is the only release with him on vocals, on the next full lenght album the vocals will be taken by Messiah Marcolin, who will -after ending the story with Mercy- become the protective sign of Candlemass..enjoy this classic!

Tracks:
01.State of shock
02.Don`t stop Heavy guitar
03.Heavy sound
04.Lost in time
05.Stranger in the dark

MERCY - SWEDISH METAL , MINI-LP 1982

SINOVI (Cro) - demo 1988

Here`s another New Wave Punk band from Pula, as you may have noticed Pula was very crowded with bands by the end of the 80s, this is a band that lived shortly and thank God an audible evidence remained.And here it is..thank Vladimir for this!

Tracks:
01.7000 ljudi
02.Previse zvuka
03.Sestra
04.Ustanak

SINOVI - DEMO 1988

THE BLEEDING (Cro) - Promo tape 1996

Alright, here is a band that I never liked, for many reasons, but mostly because Doom Metal and Stoner Rock (Black Sabbath included!!) were never my favourite, and I can count on half of one hand the Doom bands I like..but, it is a request by some of you, so here it is, by kind courtesy of Kktz from Corpus Delicti blog, the last promo tape this band did before they disbanded.There was already their EP here, and a live track on one compilation, so we miss just their promo 1993.Meanwhile, throw yourself into desperation and depression with this one, if you enjoy that..

Tracks:
01.Fantaman`s return
02.Abstract superworld
03.Space lizard
04.The cultivator

THE BLEEDING - PROMO TAPE 1996

TROMATISM (Fra) - Je ne veux plus avoir mal , ep 1994

Now, this is a really very interesting band from the mid 90s.They were a group of French anarchists playing an interesting kind of Industrial Punk with a drum machine (and here they remind me of the slovenian Strelnikoff), but their live shows (saw them 3 times in Pula) were a 130 minutes performances, an incredible voyage through human pain and suffering, involving most of the time the audience (and also provoking incidents with the closeminded ones) .. I cannot transmit the feeling of being at one of their shows, but here is the musical part of it, and down there is the video (I have the complete show on video, just too lazy to cut it into clips) from a gig held in Slovenia, so judge yourself.Great band.

Tracks:
01.Auschwitz-planete
02.Massacre
03.Les majors-compagnies
04.Exil-mental

TROMATISM - JE NE VEUX PLUS AVOIR MAL , EP 1994

PANKERFAUST (Cro) - Zlo nevidjeno , demo 2008

Heh, here is some new stuff from Croatia..this is a new band that released this stuff in 2008, and it is a (again) perfectly produced demo, a very tight and fast crossover HC, reminds of the best Crossover bands as S.O.D. or early D.R.I. Really stuff-to-get at once!

Tracks:
01.Unisti drukcije
02.Doper
03.Odmetnik
04.I ja volim Dinamo
05.Najjaci argument
06.Ambassador of the UK
07.Stemer`s cemer

PANKERFAUST - ZLO NEVIDJENO , DEMO 2008

CHAINSAW DISASTER (Bra) - Disaster , mcd 2007

This is the first work of this young Brazilian Brutal Deathcore band.The stuff here have a perfect production and is performed really greatfully, extremely powerful and precise.I am quite sure that this band have a future.I am also sure you`re gonna like this one!

Tracks:
01.Intro
02.Disaster
03.For my enemy
04.Death kiss
05.Iraq (Well come to the hell)
06.Screams and suffering
07.Let`s kill the bitch
08.The end

CHAINSAW DISASTER - DISASTER , MCD 2007

AMEN (Cro) - Return of the king , demo 2006

Instead of repeating the same picture again, this time without any pic, just a recording which is highly requested by a lot of followers of this blog.This is Amen`s demo recorded in the years of concert inactivity, done by the mainman Miroslav Kovacevic, so this is a guitar+drum machine+vocal recording (except for the drum machine, it reminds me of early Death), with a very clean production.And the music is a great oldschool Thrash Metal, in the (already mentioned) Death demo-phase, or late Slayer.It is totally recommended!
PS:More to follow, of course!

Tracks:
01.Post obliteration age
02.Nuclear remains
03.Fear of fate
04.Ritual
05.March of the harvester
06.Procession to Jerusalem

CARCASS (U.K.) - U.L.U. , London U.K. , 23.02.1989.

Here is a show from my favourite Carcass period, a soundboard recording, not that perfect but still very listeneable (well, the best sounding of all shows I posted until now!).Beautiful classics from the first two albums, really a treat for all early-Carcass lovers!!

02.Excreted alive
03.Pungent excruciation
04.Reek of putrefaction

This weekend, in Pula. R.I.P. Sela..

STRELNIKOFF (Slo) - Heavy mentally retarded , cd 1993

Wow, this is tough..I already told you about Strelnikoff, this Slovenian band was an extremely exciting act in the 90s, I had the opportunity to see them live a lot of times, and believe me, it was pure adrenalin!!This Punk/Hardcore played with a loud rhythm-machine was praised by Jello Biafra himself, a nice acknowledgement.And if I am not wrong, this was also requested, so enjoy this piece of madness!!

Tracks:
01.Heavy mentally retarded
02.I`m so pretty (but she don`t care)

HARD METAL - Serbian Metal magazine , May 1991

Well, those were the last days of the decomposing republic of Yugoslavia..and it can be noticed by the content, except for a small text about Drinking Skull, no Croatian bands were in it.But, let`s leave this fact behind and you have here the first Metal magazine in Yugoslavia.It is uncomparable to worlds Metal magazines, but still it was a HUGE step for the Metal scene in Yugoslavia.Too bad it was the end..All written in Serbian, with Poison, Megadeth, Pergament, Uriah Heep..album reviews of Ac/Dc, Motorhead, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest..really a lot for the fist time..
This post is by request, and I am quite sure Croatian metalheads will like it.

HARD METAL - SERBIAN METAL MAGAZINE , MAY 1991

III KANAL (Cro) - III Kanal , lp 1980

This is a less fortunate Croatian Hard `n`Heavy band`s first album.Why less fortunate?Because they never came out of anonimity, even the material we have here is not bad at all.The stuff here is for all those who like Hard Rock from the Balkans, and I know there is plenty of you!

Tracks:
01.Lena
02.Telefon
03.Ti odluci sve

FAKOFBOLAN (Cro) - Provincija uzvraca udarac , cd 2002

Fakofbolan is an excellent Punk/Oi band from Pula, and this is their second (if the first split-LP is not counted) and unfortunately last album.The band disbanded after a ten years long and very succesful carreer, and for those who are close to Pula, they will reunite for a one-off performance in Pula at a Punk/HC festival in memoriam to Ales Rodic-Sela, a legendary Punk from Pula who recently died (supposedly) overrunned by a car.The concert will be held next Friday and Saturday (26th and 27th Dec) in Pula, and Fakofbolan are supposed to play on Friday.

FAKOFBOLAN - PROVINCIJA UZVRACA UDARAC , CD 2002

EYESBURN (Ser) - Foolcontrol , cd 2000

Eyesburn were already featured earlier in this blog, this is another release from this Serbian band, playing a kind of modern Metal mixed with dubs and jungle rhythms.In some segments it might be interesting to people who love ie. Asian Dub Foundation, but thinks that ADF should be more metalized..This is probably the answer.

Tracks:
01.Warning dub
02.War control
03.Foolin` 1 on 1
04.Sun
05.Fool control
06.Pump it (W-people)

DISCHARGE (U.K.) - Decontrol , ep 1980

Here is the third Discharge`s EP in one year.1980 was a very good year for the band, and it announced their beautiful mini-lp Why.This ep comes with an improved production, and with one of their best track from that period, the title track Decontorol.With this ep, you have the initial ep-trilogy closed.

Tracks:
01.Decontrol
02.It`s no TV sketch
03.Tomorrow belongs to us

DISCHARGE - DECONTROL , EP 1980

HERESY + CONCRETE SOX (U.K.) - Split LP 1987

Do I have to say anything about this piece of classic vinyl??This is a cult record from the period when the enormous wave of British HC Thrash/Grindcore blasted us all.Heresy are overall probably my most favourite band of that period (well, not counting Carcass, obviously), and Concrete Sox are the perfect pair for this record.If you missed it, grab it now, an absolute must!

Tracks:
HERESY
01.Genocide
02.Belief
03.Visions in fear
04.Nausea
05.Release

SERBIAN METAL LIVE - BARUTANA , BELGRADE 30.03.2002

Now, this is an interesting post I found on my colleague`s Aktivista`s beautiful blog "Zvuci Jugoslavije".

This was a Metal gig held at the Barutana hall in Belgrade in 2002., including three Serbian Metal bands.The recording is an audience one, but still good enough.There are no song titles, sorry..

Abonos plays some Gothic-Metal, personally not my kind of Metal, especially with female voice..but a fairly played set.Alogia plays some Power-Epic-Metal and does it very very good.And there is also Kraljevski Apartman (the follow up to the already posted Apartman 69) with their Hard Rock/Metal..so,this should be a very nice piece for the collectors.

Tracks:

AMEN (Cro) - The eyes of truth are always watching you , cd 2005

Ok, let`s go on with some Croatian Thrash..My mighty contributor Mika from Hope gave me this stuff and a lot more, and everything will be posted within some time.First of all, here is a good old band from Pozega, Amen.They played the bigger part of the 90s and then disappeared, but a member Miroslav continued composing and playing hard, so he continued recording demos with the help of a rhythm program, and so here is the first recording he did in 2005.This one is a full album of old school Thrash Metal with mostly Christian lyrics (which fits me very well!). Enjoy this one, and stay tuned for the next demos!!

Tracks:
01.False belief
02.Buried alive
03.Faith
04.Fallen world
05.(Don`t be) Condemned for eternity
06.Dead dream
07.Face the God
08.Jesus
09.L.S.D.
10.Monument of blood

AMEN - THE EYES OF TRUTH ARE ALWAYS WATCHING YOU , CD 2005

QUICKSAND (Cro) - Tales from the Balcans , cd 2002

Sinisa Vuco f++king rules!!I mean, you would kill to have a guy like this in your country..Sinisa Vuco is the spiritus-movens of Quick Sand, the english version of his band Zivo Blato (go back on this blog for their first album) , and surely a very provocative person and artist.Guitarist and vocalist (and probably author of everything you hear on this album), he is actually the guy who played in one of the first Croatia`s Thrash Metal bands Evil Blood in the 80s,and then continues his carreer as an extremely successful turbo-folk singer (????) but always returning to his Metal roots.This record is a Metal version of what he do usually.Just listen to "Love and drinking" (his biggest hit originally called "Volim Piti i Ljubiti"), absofuckinglutely hilarious.Of course, don`t get it too serious..

PS:Here are few videos to describe him better:

from a late-night tv show NIGHTMARE STAGE (in croatian, sorry) when a viewer provoked him on the telephone..this is anthologic!!!

as a folk singer:

and live on stage with Zivo Blato:

Tracks:
01.Help me America
02.Endless number
03.Woman
04.Tale from the Balcans
05.Love and drinking
06.Merry Christmass
07.Exploding sky

QUICKSAND - TALES FROM THE BALCANS , CD 2002

PRIMUS (U.S.A.) - Live on KZSU 1989

Primus were one of the most exciting Funk-Metal (if it is possible to call this way the music they play) of the 90s, being a band with immense musicianship and incredible skills, and this of course goes especially for the probably one of the best bassists on the world, Les Claypool.This one is their performance on a campus radio station in Stanford University, Stanford CA.Needless to say, sublime performance of the early Primus here, just in the year of their first album "Suck on this".And although this is a low 64kbps rip, it is a very good sounding recording.So enjoy.
PS: Videos from exactly THAT performance!

Tracks:
01.To defy the laws of tradition
02.John the fisherman (with yyz intro)
03.Groundhog day
04.Too many puppies
05.Tommy the cat
06.Frizzle fry
07.The heckler
08.Sgt. Baker
09.Harold of the rocks

SORELLA MALDESTRA (Ita) - Cadavere , demo cassette 1979

Let`s go to some Punk Rock made in Italy.This demo comes from 1979, and it is given to me by one of my contributors from Pula, Vladimir.A nice Punk Rock demo tape, clearly showing the year in which it is created.For old school Punk fans!
PS:The video is from a recent show held in 2007 in Bologna.

Tracks:
01.Noia
02.Io sono un Fric

DEATH SPEAKS - Slovenian fanzine 1985

Yeah, good ole times.. I remember having this fanzine, and actually being very happy seeing that Thrash and Speed Metal is spreading like a disease..This one is one of the first Thrash zines in the ex-Yugoslavia, written by the mid80s enthusiast Bostjan Jurecic.Here you can find interviews with At War, Tankard, Kreator, Iron Angel and Hirax, something about the first Thrash bands in Yugoslavia , Odpadki Civilizacije and III Kategorija (even though I think they were completely Hardcore Thrash, but far from being Metal) and some more stuff.Very interesting revisiting the spirit of the 80s..

DEATH SPEAKS - SLOVENIAN FANZINE 1985

SCORPIONS (Ger) - as The Hunters , single 1975

Now, that is a surprise! At least for me, I found on the net this ultrarare single of the Scorpions, for this occasion under the name of THE HUNTERS, playing two THE SWEET covers, Fox On The Run and Action, sang in German!! This is an absolute golden piece of music, and a good chance to announce a best of of a great band, THE SWEET.But until that, enjoy the good ole Scorps!!

Tracks:
01.Fuchs geh voran (Fox on the run)
02.Wenn es richtig losgeht (Action)

SPEED KILLS..AGAIN , compilation cd 2007

Now, this compilation is what Metal needed for a loooong time.You already know my passion for old-school Thrash Metal..well, this compilation brings you to that point.An excellent choice of bands for celebrating the definitive return of the greatest kind of Metal ever.I won`t slice this compilation into pieces, I am just inviting you to take this one and to bang your head like crazy..like me.
PS;And again, thanx to Pero for introducing me to this one!

Well, we passed throught the complete AS discography, and now, thanx to my found-again friend Pero, here˙s a bootleg of the probably last concert of a Croatian band in Serbia, before the war divided those two countries.Of course, it is not the complete show, as AS were headlining the traditional Zajecar demo-bands festival that summer of 1991.The complete show is available on DVD.And here is an excerpt from it..

I got a great reason for this post; these MFers are together again!! The band that invented Speedcore, a bunch of hypertalented musicians, and one of the most exciting Metal band ever will feed our needs again.While we are waiting their Euro-tour in 2009, here is a nice-not that good, but still nice-live recording from 1986.

KVALITETNI DISKO BAND SHUMA (Cro) - Mario , demo 2008

Somebody could tell those guys are joking with this one but..well, they did it again.Punks from Pula are joking again, disco samples and drunk vocals are here.Of course, for all those who understands Croatian language, this should be very funny, but for all you others, check this one just to understand the insanity of those guys.I didn`t had the cover for this, and this cover is found for me by the mighty Schebo.Thanx Metalium.
So, have a laugh or two..

DEAD IDEAS (Ser) - Promo tape 1992

Dead Ideas were a very succesful band (in the underground sphere, of course) and the cassette "Rejection" I already posted is among the most downloaded stuff from this blog, so I am quite sure you`re gonna like this one too.A kind of metallic-thrashy-hardcore mixture, very nice.

In the new sequel of the "fanzines" serie, here is a HC/Punk one from Serbia (at the time the happily-ever-after Yugoslavia).This fanzine is completely in Serbian language, and contains a lot of interviews, to name a few ; Hard-Ons, Hellbastard, RKL, Desecration, then some concert reviews (as Lethal Aggression/Youth Of Today , SNFU, NoMeansNo), various columns and city-reports and as usual the last 5-6 pages of demo-vinyl-fanzine reviews. One of the neatest fanzines from the ex-Yu, again and unfortunately for the rest-of-the-world visitors, completely in Serbian language.
Your choice.
PS:On the file wrong year of release.Who cares.

HELLHAMMER (Swi) - Demon`s entrails , dcd 2008

One of my favourite bands with which I begun listening to extreme music.And their mini-LP is one of the first extreme records (not counting Venom and Discharge) I have ever bought.Tom Warrior rejects everything Hellhammer did, telling it is shit.I was very sorry to hear this, because HH brought a new standard in darkness, Venom were Christmas kids-Metal compared to this.Not for the speed,but for the heaviness and the blackness of it all.
This collection came out with the "return" of Celtic Frost ("it is shit,but let`s make some more money on it" kind of thinking) and just a minute before Tom Warrior left the band again (interesting: he told he is leaving CF..but people,Tom Warrior IS Celtic Frost!!).It is released as double CD and triple vinyl and it contains all three demos (without the mini-lp and the stuff from the Death Metal compilation!) with much improved sound, really uncomparable with the natural sound of the original demos.
Needless to say,A MUST.

MINOR THREAT (U.S.A.) - Live at Buff Hall 20.11.1982 , EP 1988

I am glad I am putting this ep here, I have this vinyl from 1988, and it is still one of my collection`s favourite.A semi-bootleg ep from one of the all time favourite HC band ever.Very loud and exciting recording of part of a gig from 1982, the "production" is not of the best, but clear enough to make you satisfied.This is an ep you WANT to have.

AND (I CAN`T BELIEVE MY OWN EYES!!!!) HERE IS (almost) THE COMPLETE GIG TAKEN!!!! (It is written 1983, but I believe, at least from the audio, that it is the gig featured on the EP!!) LOOK AT THE CHAOS!! WHAT A GIG!!

Tracks:
01.12XU
02.Small man big mouth
03.Filler
04.Out of step
05.It follows me
06.Little friend
07.I don`t wanna hear it

MINOR THREAT - LIVE AT BUFF HALL 20.11.1982. , EP 1988

A SHORT NOTE..

On this place, yesterday I put the Metallica Master Of Puppets demo, and overnight it was removed from the blog and from Mediafire as well.

I am not making money out of that, I am just making a musical heaven (as the name says), a place where you can listen to good music and feel fine, find some rare stuff and help bands in getting promoted and heard with no profit at all.It is just my love for music.I know that Metallica don`t need my help, they are big enough and rich enough that they even have an army of guys controlling every inch of the internet...
Anyway, I am not a fan of Metallica since Master Of Puppets, so I can easily live on without them..
And so will you, at least at Audio Heaven.

SEPAL (Cro) - Anonymous , demo 2002

Saw them this summer at the Grind Your Mind festival in Varazdin, and even it is not the Metal I prefer, this band is an excellent live act.This is their first demo from 2002, and even then they showed that we can count on them.Interesting modern Metal.

Tracks:
01.Desert angel
02.Hide
03.Time
04.Anonymous

SEPAL - ANONYMOUS , DEMO 2002

STRIBOG (Cro) - ..za vjecan ponos i cast , demo 2006

Now some interesting material from this relatively young band from Zagreb.I am not into this kind of music, it sounds very interesting and it is a kind of Pagan/Black/Folk Metal, whatever that may mean.All I can say is that it is played very well and produced very well and it would be a pity not to offer it to you and give the guys a wider airplay.So enjoy this one if you like the mentioned style.

Tracks:
01.Kupala
02.Panonia
03.Ognjeni jarost
04.Krunidba Slavena
05.Kristalna kula Moranina
06.Crnobog
07.Called by voices
08.Vrij
09.U vucjem oku oganj
10.I ledeni vjetrovi utihnu..

GORI USSI WINNETOU (Cro) - V zivljenju kot v filmu , cd 1996

Another nice album from the Istrian Rock guru Franci Blaskovic, actually it`s a compilation of songs from the first 4-5 albums composed by Franci, but with lyrics (or shall I say poetry?) from one of the biggest Istrian journalists, radio-presenter (and director of Radio Pula), Budimir Zizovic-Zizo.So if you have the mentioned albums, you can add this one if you collect all releases from GUW.A very very nice album.

Tracks:
01.Anastazija
02.Triumphus
03.Che bel
04.Franci + Zizo
05.Briskula
06.Ero(t)ica slovenska

GORI USSI WINNETOU - V ZIVLJENJU KOT V FILMU , CD 1996

KAIN (Cro) - In touch with reality , cassette 1994

Here is the second release of one of the three bands that were the top of the Croatian Metal scene in the first part of the 90s, but also the first of those three who fell apart.Kain were an excellent live band, I had the opportunity to know them in private, all great guys, and there are some rumors that they are active again after more than a decade, but for the moment, those are only rumors.
You already had some Kain stuff on this blog, so this is their last (official) release.For all who love a Megadeth/Testament kind of Thrash Metal, definitely a must.And thanx our Australian contributor for this!!!

Tracks:
01.In touch with reality
02.My words of hate
03.Land of dreams
04.Who am I
05.Time for change
06.The underworld
07.Pride

KAIN - IN TOUCH WITH REALITY , CASSETTE 1994

CARNIVORE (U.S.A.) - Live The Grand , NYC , 199x

Hmmm..I am a little suspicious about the date of this one..at least, the date I found for this recording..I am not quite sure that Carnivore played it in 1994, as they split somewhere in 1991-92.I changed the year here in the title, even on the file is written 1994, so you just ignore the date and enjoy some Carnivore live as it was back in the time of the second "true" Carnivore (Steele-Piovanetti-Beateaux) .The recording is not extremely good, it is an audience recording, but as such very fine.For collectors and fans.
PS:Just tell me:look at the vid - did he needed this?

Tracks:
01.Intro
02.Jack Daniels and pizza
03.Angry neurotic catholics
04.Carnivore
05.Inner conflict
06.Male supremacy
07.Jesus Hitler
08.God is dead
09.Race war
10.Jimmy Page`s amazing solo
11.Predator
12.Sex and violence
13.Suck my dick
