NECROSPHERE (Ita) - Revived , cd 2003

I am proud I can present to you one of the best Italian Death Metal bands ever,and I can`t avoid to add - with the best Italian (and much larger) Death Metal drummer.Necrosphere was born from the ashes of Cenotaph,and raised their musicianship and technicality few dozens of steps higher.This is a perfectly produced and played full lenght album,too bad it`s the only one they did.The band is no more existing,and two members of the band,Damiano and Max are today members of the exciting rocking Metal band Fuel From Hell.Enjoy this great album.

TANKARD - ALCOHOLIC METAL , DEMO 1985

LUDILO (BiH) - Idi bez traga , various recordings 1989-1990

This one is a cult Bosnian band that was active the last years of the 80s,and disappeared with the beginning of the war in Bosnia.No trace of them remained after the war,but I found this recording (actually,these recordings,various stuff somebody squeezed in a tape with the name Idi Bez Traga).The title more or less describes what happened to the band (Leave without a trace).
I have to warn you that all recordings here are of very low quality (56kbps),and are here just to document the work of that band that enjoyed a huge underground success.

01.Daj seko daj
02.Egoista
03.Egoista (live Novi Sad 1990)
04.Escape
05.Hard Core

BLOCKADE RUNNER (Cro) - The other way round , demo 1995

Well,for now,this is the last recording I have by those Thrash Metal veterans from Pula.This one is their third demo recorded and released in 1995.The quality of the production is very professional,and last year Tomo told me that they are working on a comeback..I hope they succeed in that!!

Tracks;
01.Time for rebellion
02.Rage of black tears
03.Entire despair (live)
04.The other way round

BLOCKADE RUNNER - THE OTHER WAY ROUND , DEMO 1995

DRINKING SKULL (Cro) - Evil or divine , cd 1997

Ehm..as you already read here,you know that the guys from DS were/are my good friends (at least the motor of it, H/K and Maras),and DS were one of the leading Thrash Metal bands in Croatia..
This is an album that splits their fans..A lot of Gothic influences in here made DS turn almost away from the style they played before.But it just seems like that..
The album have a lot (and I will add-too much) Gothic influences,pianos and stuff..But I will call it creativity..Just listen to tracks as War Skeletons and Endless Madness ( both with even Grind parts!!) or Rejected Man,and that is where the true DS lies..
Two interesting things about this album:
-the female backing vocals are sung by Vesna Pezo (not checked,but it is obvious that we are talking about the todays turbofolk singer)
-the last track (Rejected Man) contains a bit of silence after the track,and then the hidden Rap Metal track Rough Times,featuring the (bad English talking) rapper(s) M2S.

Tracks:
01.Keeper of the lost souls
02.The seventh seal
03.Another smile at my face
04.Doors of time
05.Walls
06.War skeletons
07.March of gods
08.The sentinel
09.Endless madness
10.The battle rages on
11.Rejected man (+ hidden track Rough Times )

MAY RESULT (Ser) - Ignoramus et ignorabimus , demo 1996

May Result were already in this blog with one of their albums..well,this is their first work,their first demo.A very powerful and loud recording balancing between Death and Black Metal.However,an extreme work done very very well.

Tracks:
01.Dogma
02.Auto da fe
03.Asylum ignorantie
04.Hellwarrior
