PROBLEMI (Cro) - demo 1978 + 2 bonus tracks

I thank Vladimir for this one,ladies and gents,here is a nice rarity!The Pula`s first Punk-rock band Problemi,the only one that found it`s way to the legendary Novi Punk Val compilation,proudly representing Pula.As every rare tape found,this one have the sign of times,it is not a perfect sound,and for an unknown reason,the one who ripped the tracks from the tape was not so accurate,so some songs are cut in or cut at the end,but believe me,if you want a document of the very beginnings of Punk Rock in a communist country as Yugoslavia was,this recording worth gold.
PS;the bonus tracks here are from another recording,a more professional recording,but probably from a year or two later.

Tracks:
01.Sranje
02.Rano je ustao
03.Jus
04.Grad izobilja
05.Momak ti si lud
06.Diskriminacija
07.Problemi

PROBLEMI - DEMO 1978 + 2 bonus tracks

AMEBIX (U.K.) - V zivo , Novi Rock 1986 , cassette 1986

This tape was a bootleg I really loved,especially the kick-off with Arise and Largactyl.A good recording of the band`s performance at the Novi Rock festival in Ljubljana,Slovenia in 1986.
I have two more FV releases I will soon put here,Fang And Attitude.But let`s return to this bootleg.This tape is released also in 1997 as a vinyl by The Only Good Dealer Is A Dead One Records under the name MAKE SOME FUCKING NOISE,and both the tape and the vinyl on the cover have written 7 tracks,while the recording contains 8 tracks.If you are an Amebix fan,you must have this tape.If you already don`t have this bootleg,then you`re not...too late to have your copy now.
PS:The video is a video I ripped from an old video tape I have,and is a bit of Arise from this performance.The sound is low,and the video is a bit dark,but worth watching it,believe me.

Tracks:
01.Arise
02.Largactyl
03.Drink and be merry
04.Fallen from grave
05.Axeman
06.Spoils of victory
07.I.C.B.M.
08.The darkest hour

DROB (Cro) - Lots of flesh , EP 2005

I was thinking whether to put or not this disgusting cover,finally I decided to put it,because you can see stuff like that almost every day,in almost every place (Tv,newspaper..),so let`s concentrate on the music..Goregrind.Very short Ep,but very extreme and perfectly played and recorded.Croatia does`t have much of bands of this kind,so Drob are surely a great product representing a part of Croatia`s underground scene.

Tracks:
01.The art of butchering
02.Fuck you,I`ve fucked your girlfriend with a broken glass
03.The butcher`s knife

DROB - LOTS OF FLESH , EP 2005

NAILED (Cro) - World collapse , cd 2003

Yeah,Pula strikes again..well,can be said,cause this band changed the name..but,Pula is surely a goldmine of Metal bands,just listen to another example..this band should have a bigger airplay,but we are living in a pretty anti-metal country by some points of view,so bands like this are condemned to play for a smaller audience,or spend enormous amounts of money for something unsure..What is sure is that this album is great modern Thrash Metal,and if you like such style,don`t miss it!
PS:oh,yeah,the band is now SKEPSIS +.

Tracks;
01.ReDRum
02.Divine perspective
03.My best art
04.Mankind
05.Gallery of scars
06.Promised land
07.Freedom
08.Pain remains

NAILED - WORLD COLLAPSE , CD 2003

AUTOPUT (Cro) - 1980-1982

This material is a rarity,something I got from a private collection.What we have here is various recordings of an old band from the city I live in,the beautiful Varazdin.All the informations I have I collected and picked randomly from various people and I had some contradictory infos too,but I will try to put here the most common I got.
The band started with playing a kind of melodic New Wave (tracks 1-6),to pass directly to an excellent strong and bluesy Hard Rock (tracks 7-13).The main vocalist in the band was the Croatian actor LJUBOMIR KEREKES (I watched last week his last international movie,The Hunting Party,where he acts along with Richard Gere!),so this is an interesting item for those who know him and sees him in various sitcoms,movies or in theatre plays.
In the pic there`s me with Ljubo and another actress from the Varazdin`s Croatian National Theatre,the great wonderful actress Marija Krpan (she owes me a Scorpions T-shirt,but that is another story..),after the play Return Of The Warrior,in December 2006.
I hope you will enjoy this precious piece of Varazdin`s Rock N` Roll history.
PS;Thanx to Ljubo for the permission,his son Jan for being the link and Zhec for giving me the CD (and being sober,at least once).



Tracks:
01.Reci neku rijec
02.Varazdinske macke
03.Predivan grad
04.Mom prijatelju
05.Gledam
06.Film
07.Covjek svojih ideja
08.Mala moja zaba
09.Suza
10.Stemeri
11.Autoput zivota
12.Grobar
13.Plava djevojka

AUTOPUT - 1980-1982

GORI USSI WINNETOU (Cro) - Addio Pola , cassette 1986

Franci Blaskovic is undoubtely the most interesting character of the Croatian underground scene.Playing from the 60s in various bands,having his first recording with the weird Arinka I Tingl Tangl band,and finally going strong with his Gori Ussi Winnetou band/project since 1986 (or at least recording since 1986.).Vocalist and bass guitar player.A guy that never ever wanted to be mainstream,a guy that refuse to play live in Pula (there were the art director of the rock club Uljanik in pula that denied the gig in the club for GUW,and Franci ever since never played a show in Pula.),a guy called "the Istrian Frank Zappa",a guy that few days ago released his 50th album (??!!)(and the last 40 albums all self-released in 4-5 years!!)..I could tell you about him all day long,I know him personally,and more or less worked with him (in the club Uljanik) few years in the 90s..but let`s return to this tape.This is his cult first album as GUW,very significant for the Istrian area,a mix-up of various styles all thrown into a cabaret-style of composing,all talking about the life in Pula and all in a language that he invented,a mix-of istrian-italian-german-englishlanguage with just a little Croatian...It is not the usual stuff I put here,but it is very significant in the Croatian underground.Well,Istrian underground..

01.Addio Pola
02.Radio merda
03.La mula Jole
04.Balkan lover
05.Born to be BU a Scoio Livi
