TORMENTRESS (Sin) - Thrashing disorder , ep 2009

Now, not only that they are very nice to see, but they are very very rude to hear !! This band proves (once again, of course) that the females are able to rock even harder than most of the male bands. This EP is pure Thrashing disorder, 4 tracks with the perfect production for the kind of metal they play. It would be a shame and a sure loss at least not to try them ! Excellent stuff!

Tracks:

01.Kuasa wanita

02.Visoes de feminista

03.State of fear

04.Thrashing disorder

TORMENTRESS - THRASHING DISORDER , EP 2009

NADIMAC (Ser) - Po Kratkom Postupku (Speed retaliation style) , cd 2011

EXCLUSIVE !!! EXCLUSIVE !!! EXCLUSIVE !!!

Here we go ! This is an album you expected since the release of the previous one, and here is Audioheaven to give it to you in advance ! The new album from the serbian Thrash sensation Nadimac is ready, and it is about to hit every single corner of the planet. And man, what an album. Everything is great here, from the production to the structure of the songs, not to mention the great lyrics by Dacha. The lyrics are in serbian as always, but this time you have two songs in english too !! The only bad thing in the whole thing are the countless mistakes in the booklet of this release, but well, you won`t listen to the booklet, so who cares. This is an album I am gonna listen to this summer definitely. And I am not telling this just because the guys are my Thrash brothers and dear friends, you can easily find it out yourself now. Area Death Productions were really lucky to discover them and take them before everyone did, now they have a real deal to sell :) . I will not be surprised if this band do the next album for a big, really big label.

I do not need to say that this is very recommended. And Kretor can piss themselves with the Nadimac`s verion of Pleasure To Kill, hahaha..

Tracks:

01.Hapsi sve

02.Izmedju dve vatre

03.Samo kec

04.Udri pseto

05.Znakovi

06.Smrtonosni ribolov

07.Gas do daske

08.Vitezi medicine

09.Kicma puca

10.Lapot

11.Bekstvo od slobode

12.Pleasure to kill

13.Suicidal command

14.Grinding crossfire

YU PUNK VOL.1 (1978-1982) , compilation cd 2008

Well, this is what I call a nice compilation of ex-Yugoslavian (actually, Yugoslavian at that time!) Punk. I am not gonna write down the tracklist, as it is really rich, and you can easily see the content on the back cover. I just can tell you that if you ever wondered how Punk sounded in a "communist" country like Yugoslavia, here is the answer. Enjoy!

NEW BLOG FOR YOU !!!

http://totalnosamljut.blogspot.com/

This is a blog I was asked to give a word about, but I am doing it very gladly, as this is a blog created by Hoc and Jule, the guys of Bolesno Grinje and countless other bands/projects. As far as I understood, this is a blog where they will post all their works, so it is an absolute MUST ! Check it out !

SIHIRATOR - A.S. rehearsal demo 2010

And finally, I can post this relatively new Thrash Metal band from Bosnia, a band that deservedly gets more airplay every day. This recording is, as the name says, a rehearsal demo so the sound is just as a rehearsal should sound; raw and violent. The lyrics, as far as I understood is equal to black metal, only they don`t sing against christianity, but against muslims, which I must admit is very brave. Soon I will put also their first demo, so if you like this one, then keep on following the blog posts !

Tracks:

01.Silovanje na minberu

02.Meshur

03.Tespih of pain

04.U mesdzidu

SIHIRATOR - A.S. REHEARSAL DEMO 2010

ZHEL (Cro) - Northern Eye, Southern Blood, Western Bullet, Eastern God, cd 1996

Now, something for those who like something different, something to sit and listen, but so exciting to make your blood runs faster.Inspired by old masters as Nick Drake and Tom Buckley, Zhel (from Pula, of course) made this very intimate and obscure record which instantly became cult, first in our city and then much much wider. I cannot miss to say that the ballad "It`s going to get you" is one of my all times favourite, and not only for the ex-yu territory !! Recommended to persons with wider views on music.

Tracks:

01.Postcard to some people

02.Magnifier light

03.It`s going to get you

We played this summer with this band, a band that left a very strong impression on my band, I hope we will be soon able to play some gigs together in Croatia, as well as in Serbia, where they come from. What we got here is old school Death Metal, the first one which was balancing between Death and Thrash. The material is dated 1994, the band still goes strong, and released new material last year, so you will have some new stuff here very soon. Meanwhile, enjoy this one !

DOOM MUSIC (U.S.A.) - Knee deep in the dead, game soundtrack 1995

Hah, I got you now! Well, all I can say about this awesome game is that this is the ONLY game I am still playing since my first computer experience in 1995. I played it also on PS1 and I still have it in my computer in 2010. And still playing it over and over again. This music is something that die-hard Doom lovers like me will have. And every tune will throw you back in the dungeons where you have been for hundreds of times, killing Imps, Zombies, Cacodaemons and similiar slime of the world of Doom.

Tracks:

01.e1m1-At DOOM`s gate

02.e1m2-The Imp`s song

03.e1m3-Dark halls

CHAINED IN AGONY (Cro) - Mind Abortion, demo cd 2010

This cd was given to me by the guitarist of the band, three weeks ago when we played a gig together in Varazdin. CIA are a great band very loud and very strong, playing a kind of melodic Death Metal and being a good live act. The cd is brandnew so get it while it is hot !

Tracks:

01.Intro

02.Malfunction

03.Gray end

04.Obscure deception

05.Mind abortion

CHAINED IN AGONY - MIND ABORTION , DEMO CD 2010

BOZJE OVCICE (Cro) - Tvoj sam, singletrack promo cd+dvd 2010

This is a band (translated as "Little Sheeps of God") I really love a lot. I got this great promo cd+dvd from the vocalist at the Glasnici Nade promotion in St.Nicholas Church in Varazdin, and I must tell that this promo surprised me a lot. First of all graphically is a beautiful and handful cover, and after the little disappointment of having just one song on the cd, the surprise in form of a DVD with the well done video for that song !!! So, while we wait a full release from these guys (and girl, pardon, on bass guitar!), enjoy this punky track "I am yours".

Track:

01.Tvoj sam

BOZJE OVCICE - TVOJ SAM , SINGLETRACK PROMO CD+DVD 2010

THE BLEEDING (Cro) - The Sad Bloom , demo cassette 1994

Well, I will start now with a dozen of posts by bands with which I am personal friend, and some stuff I received directly from them. I am starting with a band that defined Doom Metal in Croatia, no one ever after made a so perfect Doom Metal material in Croatia and in the region, I may say. The band was created by Devastation`s first bassist Walter Udovicic Fritz, and played a completely Cathedral/Black Sabbath inspired Doom Metal. This is their first demo (if I am not wrong) which became very popular instantly, and with the distibution by the Belgian Shiver Records sold worldwide. The band lasted few more years, and then disappeared. This one is also by request!

Tracks:

01.Don`t ride the horse

02.Rising free

03.New storm

THE BLEEDING - THE SAD BLOOM, DEMO CASSETTE 1994

OSLOBODIOCI (Ser) - Live Cool Club 1993

Here` some more stuff from this serbian melodic Punk Rock band, I really don`t know much about them, but I got a shitload of this band stuff from my contributor Vladimir from Pula, and by the posts I already posted I noticed that you like this band, so let`s continue with their stuff. This is a soundboard recording of a live performance dated 1993. This band is Punk Rock, as I told, but they hang a very lot to the rock side of it, you can see it by the cover they play, the Jimi`s Purple Haze. Enjoy!

Tracks:

01.Black desert dog

02.Elza

03.Jesam li pogresio

04.Purple haze

05.Vise nema razloga za nas

06.Zelena limuzina

OSLOBODIOCI - LIVE COOL CLUB 1993

EXTREME SMOKE 57 (Slo) + SEXORCIST (Hol) - Split EP 1992

Oh yeah, this is one hell of an EP, and I must say that I am the lucky owner of one copy!! The slovenian part is very Hardcore and the more controlled side of the EP, ES57 are a great band (I heard they reformed recently!!) andyou will surely enjoy their stuff. As for Sexorcist, it cannot be called as something serious, but is very listeneable, especially if you want to hear the shredding of Deep Purple`s biggest hit..All in all, a very nice EP.

PS:the sound gaps in the first two songs by ES57 are not mistakes, it is exactly as on the vinyl!

Tracks:

EXTREME SMOKE 57

01.(Hate) Skate party

02.Heavy mental fans

03.Conform

04.Life is...your enemy

SEVEN MINUTES OF NAUSEA (Australia) - XX, ep 1993

Ehm.. yes, here and there we need bands like this one, who deconstruct everything on their way...This is one of their EP-s (they did hundreds of ep`s, more or less) dated 1993, and I am pretty sure you won`t need the track list.. for those who knows what 7MON are about, no wonder then.As for the others.. If you need something that will make your ears bleed, this is exactly what you need. If not, take it at your own risk :D .

Tracks:

01.Side A

02.Side B

SEVEN MINUTES OF NAUSEA - XX, EP 1993

RAPTOR (Cro) - War At Hell, demo 2010

Yes, I know..I disappeared for a while, it became so hard to find time to run this blog, but be sure I won`t give up, no way...

Here is a new young oldschool Thrash Metal band from Osijek (actually the Croatian city with another relatively new oldschool band of young guys, Vortex). This is their first demo and what you get here is a early-Sodom-esque old school thrashing, a great recording, so watch out for further stuff from this band!

Tracks:

01.Intro

02.War at hell

03.Desecrating the chapel

04.Raptor

RAPTOR - WAR AT HELL , DEMO 2010

G.I.S.M. (Jap) - Detestation, mini lp 1984

Ooooh, this is something special, and came from Japan a looong long time ago.. this was a pretty unusual band, hardly between Punk and Metal, with a weird vocal, but great riffings with a very metallic guitar sound sunk knee-deep into Punk.Quizzed, ha? Try it, you won`t regret!
