EMPEROR (Nor) - Rehearsal 04.1993.

The best period this band had.A rehearsal with the track from their best album, and one of the best Black Metal albums ever.The sound is not soundboard, it was recorded probably as almost every rehearsal in the old school way, with a cassette recorder.And for being recorded that way, it sounds very good.

Tracks:
01.I am the black wizards
02.The burning shadows of silence
03.Cosmic keys to my creations of times
04.Towards the pantheon

EMPEROR - REHEARSAL 04.1993.

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

Serbian Black Metal, you know that Serbia is a country very rich with Metal bands, and WH are one of the hottest bands there.Melodic Black Metal with a lot of fantasy (Great Serbia) and with a lot of national proud in it.Very good, if we talk about music.

Tracks:
01.Intro/The thunders of Perun are back
02.Great Serbia
03.Fields of the blackbirds
04.Wolf`s hunger

GORTHAUR`S WRATH (Cro) - Live in Kula 06.09.2002.

Some more stuff from this Black Metal band from Rijeka.This is a live recording from 2002, the band is getting together again after few years of doing nothing, there are already new recordings out, and what makes me happy above all is that the drummer in the band is an old friend of mine, Andrea (formerly in Cenotaph).As for the quality of this recording..it is pretty raw, just as a BM band needs..

01.Hear the voice of fire
02.Resurrection of damnation

BETHOR (Ser) - The return of darkness and evil (tribute to Bathory),cd 2007

Very,VERY good tribute album by this Serbian band.Bathory classics re-played by this seemingly one-man-band, an excellent production and excellent performance.There`s not much to say about this album, except that I am sure that you`re gonna like it a lot (if you liked Bathory,of course).

Tracks:
01.Intro+The return of darkness and evil
02.Satan my master
03.Massacre

ZAKLAN (Ser) - Demo 1 2006

From the rich Serbian Metal scene,here is another great Black Metal band from Serbia,this time sent to me from Hrvoje (thanx Hrvoje!!).Excellent demo,performed very good and musically blackened to the bone.You know that I don`t support the topic used by that kind of bands,but musically I like the musicianship of this band.Very interesting for BM fans!

Tracks:
01.Mrij..gospode
02.Vrazijeg kruna
03.Od besa

ZAKLAN - DEMO 1 2006

VONDUR (Swe) - The galactic Rock`n`Roll empire , cdep 1996

Ok,let`s pay the last tribute to this funny band..I said funny because they look and act funny,but actually I don`t know their real intention,do they really wanted to be funny or a parody or what?
Well,never mind.
This is their third and last release,a strange EP containing English version of two of their songs,and some bizzarre covers..now,imagine a band as Vondur (with members of Abruptum-it is the maximum of Blackness,right?) playing covers by Elvis Presley,Motley Crue and early Judas Priest..have I told you enough?Of course,there is also a Bathory cover here,so all in all,we can call it a must have..at least to throw a laugh or two.

Tracks:
01.Kill everyone
02.You don`t move me (I don`t give a fuck) (Bathory cover)
03.Rocka rolla (Judas Priest cover)
04.Red hot (Motley Crue cover)
05.Love me tender (Elvis Presley cover)
06.Panzer legions Vondur
07.The raven`s eyes are as mirrors of the bottom of Satan`s black halls

VONDUR - THE GALACTIC ROCK`N`ROLL EMPIRE , CDEP 1996

THE STONE (Ser) - Neke rane krvare vecno , cd 2007

The cd you have here is actually the last full lenght released by The Stone,but it is not new stuff,it is actually the re-release of the album that the band released back in 2000 when they were called Stone To Flesh,and the album was called Some Wounds Bleed Forever.Except for the 8 songs from the album,the cd contains also two tracks from a later EP.The original cd also contains a video,which you won`t get here,only if you buy the original.If you like to hear what they sound(ed) like,get this one!

Tracks:

02.Some wounds bleed forever
03.Za korak paklu blize

THE STONE - NEKE RANE KRVARE VECNO , CD 2007

BALTAK (Mac/Australia) - Kral na dva svetoj , cd 2000

After Arhont,here`s another Macedonian band,this time we have a very loud and fast Black Metal band,with topic about Macedonia and its history.It is a bit strange,as the band is purely Australian based,only Gorgoroth`s (the guy that is almost everything in the band,except for the played drum parts) parents are Macedonian,and the nationalistic vein in the topic draws origins from there.As I said,a very loud and fast album,created for those who like the total extremity in music.And again,a contribution from Tasko (tnx!)!

Tracks:
01.Pravo za Egipet (Car na Egipet)
02.Makedonija ke se vrati
03.Svetot moj
04.Kral na dva svetoj
05.Sin na Zevs Ammon
06.Bucevole
07.Makedonska falanga
08.Car bese roden
09.Stench of death-Reaking the heavens

BALTAK - KRAL NA DVA SVETOJ , CD 2000

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.
PS:I am not sure what is exactly,but on the Encyclopaedia Metallum results that all the members and more are playing in The Stone as well...(??)

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

MAY RESULT - IGNORAMUS ET IGNORABIMUS , DEMO 1996

THE STONE (Ser) - Zakon velesa , cd 2004

The Stone are already featured in this blog, they are one of the leading Black Metal names in Serbia. This is their third album, and I must admit, even if I don`t listen to BM that much, this band sounds awesome. I hope they sound the same on their live-shows, it is extreme, but still with dark melodies. Very good.

Tracks:
01.Prividjenja
02.Nocas nikog nema pred dverima Nava
03.Svarozi krug
04.Zakon velesa
05.Mater slava
06.1168. (Sivi oblak stao nad Arkonom)

THE STONE - ZAKON VELESA , CD 2004

MAROTH (Ser) - Knjaz ovoga sveta , cd 2006

If you want Black Metal,you got it.This is another fine product from the Serbian scene,a band I got from my supplier Darko.I am impressed how loud is this album,the sound is recorded so loud that it sounds overdistorted,but,hey,BM is supposed to be dirty and evil and fucking loud,and thsi album surely is all of that and more.The most important thing is the music,of course which in this case is very good.For BM fans,a pretty much must have item.

Tracks:
01.Macem kroz srce
02.Bezdan
03.Sudbina
04.Secivo
05.Knjaz ovoga sveta
06.Krst u plamenu
07.Vecna tama
08.Izgubljene duse

MAROTH - KNJAZ OVOGA SVETA , CD 2006

GORTHAUR`S WRATH (Cro) - Paroxysms of madness , demo 2002

Another excellent demo of this band from Rijeka,They are already featured on this blog,but this is a demo that shows the progress of this band.Very technical Black Metal with a fairly good production,really can`t ask for more if you are a fan of evil..

Tracks:
01.Pale dreams in vacancy
02.Hear the voice of fire
03.Shadow mirrors
04.Unbounded (crossing the frontiers)

08.Resurrection of damnation

GORTHAUR`S WRATH - PAROXYSMS OF MADNESS , DEMO 2002

VONDUR (Swe) - Demo 1995

Continuing the saga of this band,after you heard their album on this blog and wondered "somebody actually released it??",here is their demo with three songs,two written by them and one by nature (??).The stuff here is not even fast,slow and mid-tempo Black Metal with strong riffs.This demo is for collectors of Black Metal stuff..And yes,they are not untuned here!!

Tracks:
01.Uppruni vonsku
02.Eitt bergmal ur framtidinnar dagar
03.Eg daemi oss till dadda

VONDUR - DEMO 1995

DARKTHRONE (Nor) - Land of frost , demo 1988

Darkthrone at their very beginnings.This is their first demo,very raw and obscure,and of course far away (technically) from what Darkthrone became later.But,of course,always interesting.The recording is not of the best,but obviously it is the original that is recorded bad.Two more demos will follow,but let`s start off with the first one.
PS:Notice that every song title contains the "OF" in the title (ie, "this OF that")!!
PPS:The video is a very funny Fenriz,check it out.

Tracks;
01.Land of frost
02.Wings of Triton
03.Forest of darkness
04.Odyssey of freedom
05.Death of the dead

DARKTHRONE - LAND OF FROST , DEMO 1988

THE STONE (Ser) - Slovenska krv , cd 2002

The Stone are already featured in this blog,and here is their very first album.A very good record of pure melodic Black Metal with slavic motives.A pearl from the Serbian rich Black Metal scene.

01.Za kosti otaca
02.Ustaj mati zemljo
03.Dabog
04.Bogovi od srebra
05.U kamenu

07.Pevalo hiljadu maceva
08.Knez visokih suma

THE STONE - SLOVENSKA KRV , CD 2002

VONDUR (Swe) - Stridsyfirlysing , cd 1995

Hahahahahahaa..if there is a funny side of Black Metal,then these guys are kings!As you can see from the sticker on the cover,the main character here is IT,the guy from Abruptum,and with him is ALL (total true Black Metal art-names,right?).I have never seen funnier facepaints,and as far as I remember from the original colour cover,one of them has YELLOW instead of white (I think it was All)!!??!!And tell me,how scary can be All in the picture up here??Anyway,both LOSERS.As for the music..well,it is not even that bad,actually,I like it more than a mass of so-called Black Metal bands.The main line on the cover that hooked me at once and have me fascinated by this band is "VONDUR PLAYS UNTUNED!".Yes,ladies and gents,Vondur plays fuckin totally untuned!!But as the level of distorsion is pretty high,it doesn`t matter because you can`t recognise the tunes anyway.But I love this cd.Oh yes,I do.
I am pretty sure that they wanted to do a perverted parody of Black Metal,and boy,they succeded pretty much!

Tracks:
01.Kynning-Einvaldnir er her
02.Dreptu allur
03.Uppruni vonsku
04.Kynning-Fjordi riku

15.Ekki nein verdur saklaus
16.Beitir hnifar skera djufur
17.Hofdingi Satan

VONDUR - STRIDSYFIRLYSING , cd 1995

GORTHAUR`S WRATH (Cro) - Unleash hell , cd 2001

At that time it was nearly impossible to follow who`s where in the Rijeka Metal-scene,especially in the Black Metal part of it.GW are in a way the follow-up to Castrum,but in a very darker way.
The band has certain progressions in creating new songs,so for the lovers of true powerful BM,this is it!

Tracks;
01.Resurrection of damnation
02.End of time
03.Trascendental arcane journey
04.Believe the devil
05.The return
06.Undead formula
07.Oath of the dragon order
08.Divine darkness icon
09.In the name of hell
10.Dissector (remix)

GORTHAUR`S WRATH - UNLEASH HELL , CD 2001

KRV (BiH) - Silna volja srebra , cd 2005

Excellent,excellent Black Metal coming from Bosnia.I am really surprised with this one,as well as with the name of the band (means BLOOD).Sounds to me like good oldschool BM with extreme production,all in all an album I recommend!And also,by request.

Tracks;
01.Celebrating the black art
02.Pale kurve
03.Krv
04.Nesanica
05.Crni jebeni metal
06.Pakao
07.Krv (live bonus)
08.Nesanica (live bonus)

KRV - SILNA VOLJA SREBRA , cd 2005

GORTHAUR`S WRATH (Cro) - Ancient darkness , demo 2000

Ok,who says that Croatia don`t have a proper Black Metal band,of the "highest" level?GW are from Rijeka,a city who have a pretty good Metal scene (we already had here Dr Steel and Arisse) and some bands actually very popular bands in Europe (Ashes You Leave and Father).
GW are one of the oldest BM bands from these territories,and on this demo they sound a bit like early Emperor (ok,I am not a BM fan,so I am not so precise in comparing),so for all the fans of extreme BM,enjoy.

Tracks;
01.Intro
02.End of time
03.Return
04.In the name of hell
05.Dissector of christian soul
06.Believe the devil
07.Outro
