VA - 'Nećemo i nedamo' benefit compilation (cass) [1997]

“Nećemo i nedamo” was a newsletter that was published by ZAP (Zagreb Anarchist Movement) during the second half of the 1990's. It had also an English version called “Zaginflatch” so maybe some of you have seen it. This tape is a benefit released for support of before mentioned newsletter and it features European line up of bands from mainly punk/hc style of music. I think it was released in 1997, but don't take that as a 100% correct since there's no date on the tape cover.Info stuff: Neither East Nor West Alternative News Service (English versions of “Nećemo i nedamo” aka “Zaginflatch”).

DESINENCE MORTIFICATION + S.M.C [1997] split tape (cass)

Another legendary release by two legendary bands from town of Pula! Desinence Mortification play this grind metal crust kinda music, with political lyrics. They remind me a bit of Dystopia, but songs are much shorter. S.M.C. (or Spiridon Mekas Crust) are energy all the way, growling politically inspired lyrics that comment on Croatian 1990's state and all it's flaws (and there were many to shout about!). Spiridon Mekas is by the way a conspirative name that Josip Broz Tito used while he was in in illegality before WWII. Great release, one of my favourites from the 1990's!

KURAC OD OVCE [2001] Čovjek s greškom (cass)

Kurac Od Ovce (or roughly Sheep's Dick) were a band from town called Kutina in Croatia. They were one of great bands from that town and were the one of many Kutina's bands/people involved around Baraka venue/project where I had so many interesting and often drunk nights and seen many good gigs. K.O.O. was formed in 1993 and had a couple of line-up changes. They play a straightforward punk/hc, somewhat reminiscent of bands like No Use For A Name, and have personal lyrics in a straight edge vein but they're not preaching, they're angry and they sound bloody good! This tape is their last release (third one) and it's a double A side release, same tracks on both sides of the tape which was released on Vedran M.'s (of Nula and R.D.K. fame) label Humanita Nova. 
Info Stuff: MySpace, K.O.O. @ baraka-kutina.

DEBELI SAMURAJ [1997] Svako ima pravo na život... na svoj život imam pravo samo ja! (cass)

Debeli Samuraj (or Fat Samurai) were a band from Sombor in Serbia and they play Oi Polloi influenced punk/hc. I got this tape through a friend back in the 1990's and I'm ashamed to say that I don't know anything about them. Lyrics are anarchist, anti-war, and generally pretty good and they sing in Serbian. This tape was a D.I.Y release (and only Debeli Samuraj release that I know of), songs 01-07 from A side and songs 08-14 from B side.
Update on 2008-05-23.: As Milan was kind enough to provide further info on this band I can also inform you that Debeli Samuraj were from a town of Sombor in Serbia, and that they broke up in the late 1990's and that members of Debeli Samuraj later played in a band called Anger Is A Gift.

NULA [1994] Pobjedimo laž (cass)

Wow! What to say about this one... This is, for me personally, one of the most important releases that ever came out in Croatia. I was a young punk then, back in 1994 when this came out, and I knew about anarchist attitudes since I've been listening to old bands like Crass and Conflict but this one really hit me hard. I'll try to explain it if I can, it was bloody 1994, war in Croatia was still going on, Generalissimus (wannabe!) Franjo Tuđman (Croatian president, I'm sorry he died only cos if he lived he would be sent to UN war crimes tribunal in The Hague and the bastard deserved it!) was firmly in power, people were crazy from nationalism and war, and then I get this tape, from a very brave 5 piece band from town of Šibenik nonetheless. The town of Šibenik was then in a war zone, and boys from Nula are telling/yelling it to the politicians, cops, army, church, idiots.... They're screaming to those bastards - fuck you, we wanna live our lives! It had a great impact on me, it made me more angry at the war, at the way I'm living in this nationalistic lie, it made me hate the haters. Nula (english Zero) released this “Pobjedimo laž” (or something like “Let's Defeat The Lie”) tape and my life was never the same afterwards (I know it sounds like a cliché, but it's true). Songs 01-17 are from A side, and 18-34 from B side. Last two songs on A side (16 & 17) are from a band called Stratus, also from Šibenik. I think Stratus released one demo tape but as a band they were short lived. Nula later released a whole bunch of stuff, some of them were a split LP with Bijes Zdravog Razuma, split with Bagger from Switzerland, 10” split with Enough from Poland etc. One thing I must add is that it's a big release (in MBs) cos it's almost 90 minutes of tape and I've scanned the booklet with all the artwork (booklet was a split release with Glans Penises #6 fanzine done by a Nula drummer Vedran M.) which I also added to this download.

Tapes are here... Oops, is it already the end of May?

Hi to everyone!
Again some new posts on Nečista Savjest blog. I was trying to organize some ripping from cassettes, and I finally succeeded! I managed to get a digital preamplifier so some rarities or/and legendary releases from Ex-YU scene (and some other ones too) are gonna be featured next. I have to warn you that quality of those Ex-YU releases (production and sound) are not always the best. During the 1990's when I was involved in the scene tapes were the main way of getting your music to people, since vinyl or CDs weren't accessible (or better said affordable). Most of the tapes releases were recorded in a garage or some other practice place, or in some “cheap” (read: not very well equipped) studio and they were multiplied on home stereos, copied to blank tapes or even on used ones. Only later in 1990's really professionally copied tapes appeared and after that home computers and cheap CD-Rs have done their work (and mp3s too) so spreading of punk became much easier.
Well I hope you'll enjoy what I planned to upload and thanx to everyone who left a comment, I have not posted on this blog, but I have been watching your input and I thank you all once more.
Good blogs that I've found recently are viva la anarquia (in French) and Sabots & Songs (done by Luc(a)s from USA). Go and check them out, I think they're worth it!
That's all from me, and... crap... it really is the end of May... I misplaced one month... somewhere... where did it go... damn... I'll never drink again!



Happy Victory Day over Nazi scums to you all!
