DEADLY MOSH (Ser) - Fuck holly war, EP 2008

As already told, Serbia is a country of million metal bands, but what I like the most is their Thrash Metal scene, with a lot of excellent and very talented bands.This is one of those, a band
where my friend Stole sings.This is their first EP from 2008, pure old-school Thrash Speed Metal, for all like me, for those who knows that only the good old sound rules!I love this band!

POPEYE feat. TAMARA OBROVAC (Cro) - Delaj , advance track 2009

Well, here are news from one of my favourite Croatian bands, my friends from Popeye.They played three weeks ago here in Varazdin, and Zheeka (second from the left) played in their van some tracks from the new cd "Cijena slobode" soon to be released.I can assure you that the album will be a blast, at least for the people who love nu-metal (and believe me, in Croatia the number of fans raised drasticly after the Limp Bizkit show here in Varazdin, sic). In this advance track, Popeye have a great guest, the istrian etno-jazz singer Tamara Obrovac, which fits perfectly in this combination.So, if you like, here`s a taste of what will be their full album.

POPEYE FEAT. TAMARA OBROVAC - DELAJ , ADVANCE TRACK 2009

SVI MARS NA PLES - Yugoslavian compilation lp 1981

This compilation was a very succesful one, almost a cult.It had almost every significant act of the new-wave invasion , including Bijelo Dugme who also turned from the leading Hard Rock act to a New Wave/Ska band..But if you want to have a really very good compilation of the ex-Yugoslavian new wave, this is definitely a must.

GAZNEVADA (Ita) - Gaznevada , cassette tape 1979

This one is for the collectors of old Punk Rock bands stuff.Gaznevada were from Italy, and this is their first tape dated 1979.The sound is different from song to song, which is pretty confusing, but it is the content of this tape, probably made of various recordings.

RANCID HELL SPAWN (U.K.) - Festering pus, EP 1988

Ohhhhhhh yesssssss!! Finally!! Many of you asked me to upload this EP, and I found just now a vinyl-rip I did 4-5 years ago..I bought this EP by mail in 1988, and of course expected some hard grinding and blasting. When it arrived to me, I was very surprised by the content, but in the same time very amused by this EP. It lasts 3 minutes sharp but it is a load of fun and distortion (especially distortion!). My warm recommendation!!! Eat my yellow banana, hahaha!!!

Tracks:
01.Festering pus
02.Freeze-dried foetus
03.Eat my yellow banana

RAMBO AMADEUS (CG) - Hipišizik metafizik, cd 2008

This is the last album from this hypermusician from Montenegro, a great work of strange funky jazzy rock with extremely ironic yet intelligent lyrics.The interesting fact about this album is that Rambo (real name Antonije Pusic) asked the fans through myspace to invent the cover for this album.This one was (one of) the result.
For all those who love chillin` music.

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.

FAKOFBOLAN

GRUUTHAAGY - Grave-o-lution , cd 200x

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.
