SOTER (Cro) - First demo 1994 + interview

Well, by request and by my wish too, here is the Soter`s first demo.This demo is played by two regular visitors of this blog Mika (contributor too!) and Axegrinder.So, as for the first post, what we have here is a very raw recording of some dark Doom Metal atmospheres here, not the usual "I am stuffed with weed as a monkey" stuff.The live-rehearsal room recording just amplifies the feel.Stuff to have for collectors of Croatian Metal.And for the Croatian-speaking fans, here is also a radio interview done with the band!!A must.

Tracks:
01.First ones (Heller cover)
02.Return of messiah
03.When the gods turn their backs
04.unknown title

SKIANTOS - KINOTTO , LP 1979

DESEXULT (Den) - S.O.D.F.O.A.D. , demo 1986

Hmm, a great logo..and a great title of demo (you might think that there is some Fuck Off And Die thing goin` on, but no: the title means Soon Our Demo Finds Our Album Deal.Hahaha, very nice.. So, old school Thrash Metal cult demo from Denmark dated January 1986, a very good audio copy, again for old Thrashing maniacs!

Tracks:
01.Evil courier
02.Fateful day
03.Megalomania
04.Rebirth
05.Ground zero

DESEXULT - S.O.D.F.O.A.D. , DEMO 1986

DISCHARGE (U.K.) - Never again , ep 1981

Oh yeah, the cover is well known..The single and the album had the same cover, and if you ask me musically I prefer the single, because it brings new tracks.The album, beside the stuff from this single, brings weirdly re-produced tracks from the Hear Nothing.. album (absolutely needless!), and even I have the vinyl, I avoid it very much.Same Discharge as the previous, except for the cleaner production, still kept in the Discharge margins.

Tracks:
01.Never again
02.Death dealers
03.Two monstrous nuclear stockpiles

DISCHARGE - NEVER AGAIN , EP 1981

AMEN (Cro) - The lost prophet , demo 2007

And as I posted Soter, which contained members of Amen, let`s stay in da house and continue with another Amen recording I got from Mika.As they are prepairing to do their comeback, here is the collection of recordings the band (actually just one member) did during these years of inactivity.It is in the same Thrash way as the previous demos, and with a rhythm machine that will soon be replaced by Mika (yeah!).Enjoy this one.

Tracks:
01.The lost prophet
02.Your love
03.Heavenlion
04.God`s love will enter
05.Hail Mary
06.Age of doom

AMEN - THE LOST PROPHET , DEMO 2007

SOTER (Cro) - demo October 1994

Well, finally you got the chance to hear another Croatian Doom Metal band, Soter from Pozega.The band contained members from Amen and played for few years in the 90s.This recording comes from 1994, it is a rehearsal demo, and the Doom played here is slow, depressive and heavy as a real Doom Metal have to be.There will be more stuff from Soter, and for that people send a thank you to Mika from Hope/Amen.Stuff you must have!!

Tracks:
01.Neither from the sky, neither from the depth
02.Time of cross from dust
03.Prisoner of suffering

SOTER - DEMO OCTOBER 1994

SEPTIC DEATH - ATTENTION , CD 1990

DEMETHER (Ser) - Within the mirror , cd 2004

I admit that this kind of Metal turns me off.Yeah, too kitsch for my taste.And if there is someting I don`t like are the opera female voices in Metal.But, these guys are powerful as hell and can be competitive with any Gothic/Power band in the world.This is their first album from 2004.

Tracks:
01.Voices in the dark
02.Sound of a horn
03.Last night
04.Within the mirror

06.Silence

10.Ragnarock
11.Silence (chamber version)

DEMETHER - WITHIN THE MIRROR , CD 2004

VOOR (Can) - demo 1985

I remember this demo was one of the cult demos that we were passing from hand to hand in Pula back in the 80s.This is pure Thrash Metal from the beginnings; raw, somewhere midtempo, and most important - SINCERE.Even if it the sound is not very good, this one is a must for all the old-school fans.

Tracks:
01.Evil metal
02.In hell
03.Creature of war
04.No title
05.Bloodlust (Venom cover)

VOOR - DEMO 1985

XENOPHOBIA (Slo) - Signs of mental decay , ep 1991

Very technical Thrash Metal deep into Death Metal from this Slovenian band.This is their third work before they split-up.Unlike other bands, in this recording they use saxophone, keyboards and female vocals, so anyway something slightly different this way comes..

Tracks:
01.Dregs of mankind
02.Money over mind
03.Addicted to chemically II
04.Caught in eternity
05.Signs of mental decay

XENOPHOBIA - SIGNS OF MENTAL DECAY , EP 1991

AMEBIX (U.K.) - demo 1979

I was never a fan of this band, but some people visiting this blog are big fans, so this post goes for them and for all those who are maybe searching for something more from this band.This is their first demo from 1979, a pretty obscure recording and not a high quality here, just raw Crust Punk.If you ask me, I would recommend you the live recording posted earlier on this blog, but this one will fit the collectors.
PS:The video is Amebix today..

Tracks:
01.Amebix
02.77 faded heaven
03.University challenged
04.Rabies
05.Disco slags

AMEBIX - DEMO 1979

MESSIAH (Swi) - Infernal thrashing , demo 1986

For my opinion, one of the greatest Thrash bands out of Switzerland (ok, of course except CF/Hellhammer), one of the loudest Thrash Metal band of the second European wave.This is their second demo, different versions of tracks from the first album, plus two tracks recorded
live in Baar, Switzerland in December 1985.I am proud I can say I saw them in Ljubljana in 1987.For the collectors, a must have.And look at this live vid to feel their full live power..

Tracks:
01.Hymn to Abramelin
02.Messiah
03.Infernal thrashing
04.Thrashing madness
05.Future aggressor (live)
06.Total maniac (live)

MESSIAH - INFERNAL THRASHING , DEMO 1985

MY NEW OTHER BLOG..

Well, yes, I was thinking about it more than two months.. I wanted to do a blog completely dedicated to my most favourite vinyl format - the 7 inch single record, or the Extended Plays - the 7 inch large piece of vinyl.It will be dedicated to all kinds of music, mostly any other kind from folk to grindcore (opposite to this blog, the Metal and Punk/HC stuff will be pretty rare, altough there will be some rare pieces also!), the important thing is to be on a 7-inch vinyl.
So, for all the fans of this format, my complete collection of single records will be there.. be there.
PS:Of course, Audio Heaven will go on too!!!

The blog is called

MANGIADISCHI PENNY

WELCOME !

MACABRE (U.S.A.) - Shitlist , demo 1987

Hehe, this is the first demo of the Chicago masters of murder metal, an excellent band if you haven`t had the opportunity to hear their sound.They originally played an extremer kind of Thrash Metal, which by its technicality and violence put them on the border of being one of the first Death Metal bands.The sound quality is excellent.

01.Disease
02.Ratman
03.What the heck Richard Speck (Eight nurses you wrecked)
04.Natural disaster
05.Mass murder II a)guitar b)bass c)drums

MACABRE - SHITLIST , DEMO 1987

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

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
05.Boja

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
