FAKOFBOLAN (Cro) - split LP with DARK BUSTERS (Cro), lp1996

One of the first underground records/albums coming out from the rich Pula Punk scene.Both bands are already featured on this blog, so I will only repeat that Fakofbolan (aka FOB) plays some strong street Punk, and Dark Busters are easily comparable with NoMeansNo.One interesting fact: the cover of the vinyl is intentionally made half centimeter bigger, so it is easily noticeable among other records in your collection.Clever move.This is a great vinyl rip.

Here`s another fine product from mr.KKTZ. To be honest, I don`t know how to call this kind of musical creation, as there are many influences and kinds of music here, it is a kind of rhythm-machine cyber-insanity, but still very interesting and surely recorded greatly.For the fans of the unusual.

ORION (Mak) - Execration behind the walls , demo 1992

This is a great demo I got from this blog`s friend Tasko from Macedonia.This band is dead for a long time now, but that doesn`t mean their work is not still alive.This is a demo of greatly produced Deathrash Metal, comparable somehow to Morbid Angel..Thanx Tasko for this one!!

EXCLUSIVE ! EXCLUSIVE ! EXCLUSIVE !

I got this directly from Fitz (the guitarist) and I am glad I can bring you a relatively new band from Varazdin, and their first very well produced demo.What we got here is a blend of few Metal genres all melt in one, and considering that this is their first work, we can expect more great stuff from this band.Keep an ear on them!

04.Crimson shadows
05.Son of thousand tears

Now, before the band comes to Croatia on July 9th, here is their demo from last year plus a live track (you have this track on video down here).I must admit I am not that much into this band, but Masvidal and Reinert bring orgasms every time they play, so...this material is really very listeneable and worth downloading.

Tracks:
01.Integral birth
02.Adam`s murmur
03.Evolutionary sleeper (live)

CYNIC - PROMO DEMO 2008

AJDATH (Jor/Pol) - Triangle of death , cd 2006

This is a recording I got directly from the band a long time ago, and finally here they are.This band is originally from Jordan, but now living/working in Gdansk, Poland. Let me cite you this "Omar Al Kilani (guitar,vocal) has moved to Poland because he was unhappy about the level of musicianship in his native country, and because he and other metal-musicians were being persecuted in his native country." Now you tell me is there anything more than this to the phrase "Live for Metal"? No, there isn`t.Here is their last work, a cd of Thrash/Death Metal played very fairly!

Tracks:
01.Triangle of death
02.Wrath of Babel
03.Intifada

AJDATH - TRIANGLE OF DEATH , CD 2006

ALOGIA (Ser) - Secret spheres of art , cd 2005

Progressive Power Metal from Serbia.Played perfectly good, an album that is a must for all those who like their metal heavy and virtuose.Alogia is one of the hottest Metal acts from Serbia, and I think there are some chances we`ll see them in Croatia soon.Well, not me, I am not into this kind of Metal that much, but I really recommend this album to true Metal lovers.

ALOGIA - SECRET SPHERES OF ART , CD 2005

ZGAGA ROCK FESTIVAL - international compilation cd 1996

This is a nice promo cd, I got it from the radio station where I worked in the 90s.This is the compilation of a festival held in Litija, Slovenia, and lasted few years.There was a bunch of Garage Rock, Classic Rock and Punk Rock bands, a festival that completely negated Metal as music, thanx to the art director and founder of the festival, a person I won`t even mention, but you can hear on the introduction track 1 on the cd.This cd is, as written, not for sale, so I give it to you for free.

DISCHARGE (U.K.) - State violence state control , ep 1982

Now, this is the point where Discharge loses the strenght of the HNSNSN album and started to metalize.Actually, Doom`s Day is the last shake of the old nerve,while the title track is a song with a nice Metal riff, and with a mid tempo.Still the Discharge I adored in any way.

Tracks:
01.State violence state control
02.Doom`s day

DISCHARGE - STATE VIOLENCE STATE CONTROL , EP 1982

ZAKLAN (Ser) - Vrazijeg kruna , demo 2006

This is the second demo of this Serbian Black Metal duo, which is still active, but has no new material since this demo.This is a hell of stuff, excellent BM played in the best Mayhem/early Emperor way.Except for the topic (as usual not concerning me at all), the music kills.

Tracks:
01.Mrij..gospode
02.Vrazijeg kruna
03.Od besa
04.Zanavek nem i zgazen
05.untitled
06.untitled

ZAKLAN - VRAZIJEG KRUNA , DEMO 20006

WIPE AWAY (Mac) - Wipe away , cd 2008

Wipe Away is a brand new one-man-band from Macedonia,playing some Christian Gothic music and unlike other known Gothic bands, this one is practicly without guitars, only a great piano.In the band except for the man behind it all, mr. Zarko Atanasov, there is the guest vocalist Marina Petrushevska.A nice soothing stuff for Goth lovers.

Tracks:
01.In the end of sorrow
02.Revelation 21
03.I made you
04.The end with two ends
05.Win the battle
06.Wonderful world

LUDILO (BiH) - Kill je moj , demo 1989

Here is something I found on the blog JUGOZVUK, a beautiful blog of ex-Yu music of all kind.This is the complete demo of this Bosnian band from Tuzla, a band that buned out fast, but probably disappeared with the beginning of the war.The sound is pretty good, and this is a collectors item.

Tracks:
01.Escape somewhere
02.Hard core
03.Egoista

LUDILO - KILL JE MOJ , DEMO 1989

GENOCIDE (Can) - Chainsaw slaughter , demo 1986

When you see a band like this one, and a guitar like the red one (the guitars are all red, I mean the one in front..) on the pic, you have to love them at once..This is the most Classic Speed Thrash Metal stuff you can get.A very good demo with great riffing, this is the only demo they did under this name.Recommended!!
