MENGELE [1994] Śmierć Heleny (cass)

This tape is one of my lucky finds during the recent rummaging thru my archives. Mengele are from Poland, and in spite of a scary name and even more scarier cover (depicting young Jozef Mengele) this is a really weird (in a good way) Polish band that mixes reggae, punk, dub, etc. which makes for interesting sound that sorta reminds me of Words Of Warning bands of that period. They have anti-nazi, anti-homophobic and political lyrics, and they are pretty good if you give them a chance. As I mentioned before, I am quite happy to have dug up this tape from those boxes under my bed, and I hope you'll like them too.

Sanctus Iuda were this crust/punk band from town of Białystok in Poland. They play this political, anarchist crust and this tape is a compilation of their spit 7” with Sarcasm and Shapeville, plus studio & live songs. I have no info on Sanctus Iuda, but you can find two of their split 7”'s (and a bit more info), one with Sarcasm and second with Dog On A Rope on Röcking Nöise.

MUTINY [1997] Rum Rebellion (cass)

Another great tape, this one is a Croatian release of Australian folk-punks Mutiny. This is their first album, it was released (in Croatia) by Marko S. from In Medias Res fanzine (and occasionally label) in cooperation with Humanita Nova label/distro. I think Mutiny were touring Europe at the time of when this tape was released in Croatia, so they also played a gig or two here. Unfortunately I can't recall if I was at their gig here in Zagreb as I was pretty drunk all the time at that period of my life, but I do remember scrounging a beer off them, in return I promised to do a bodgy tat of their band name on myself, but, erm, I am apologizing here, I still haven't done my part of the bargain... Great band, great lyrics, and great energy.

PETROGRAD [1998] Who Am I? (cass)

Petrograd was already posted on Nečista Savjest, you can check out that post for some more info about the band and their “Nineoneone” album from 2002 here. In short (and it is short as I don't know much about this band), Petrograd is a punk band from Luxembourg and they started playing back in 1996. They have this sound, they are melodic but emotional and political in the same time, I guess if I was to give some smart ass review I would say/compare them to The Weakerthans under influence of European angst... I am bullshiting here, I know, I have said that I don't like doing comparisons and sloting bands in genre drawers, and I am doing it now so screw that, Petrograd are a great band, good personal/political lyrics, music takes you there, and I like them a lot. This tape is Croatian release from Humanita Nova (damn good Croatian label/distro, although I don't know if it is still active) and as you can see on the cover, it is basically Petrograd's “Isobelle” album with bonus tracks from their EP's and split 7”'s.

NATIONS ON FIRE [1992] Strike The Match (cass)

Nations On Fire were a straight edge hardcore band from Belgium. I must admit I don't know anything about them, I bought this tape (which is the Polish release) off some distro, on some gig, on impulse of just liking the cover, as the picture of people holding an upside down American flag and the album's title “Strike The Match” brought a smirk on my face. All in all, Nations on Fire are energetic, political, and they do come from Belgium which as a lot of fine bands, so what more can I say?

KRVAVI MANDAT [199x] Krvavi mandat (cass)

I have given some info about this band in my previous post, but here it goes again. Krvavi Mandat were a legendary crust/punk band from Zagreb. They played in the second part of the 1990's. I have seen them on gigs from which I have this one funny memory of how while they played it always looked to me like the singer and guitarist will have a fist fight on stage. This is a tape which is a sort of discography of Krvavi Mandat. It has their 2 demos (songs 01-08 are from 1st demo, and songs 09-18 are from the 2nd demo). The tape was released somewhere around 1999 I guess, I am not quite sure of the year, sorry but my memory is sometimes very bad with remembering the exact dates, or years...
The tape was released by DHP-AK47 label/distro, I am also not sure if it had a booklet with it, I was unable to find it in my stack of zines and booklets, but if I manage to dig it up someday, I will post it on here too.

S.M.C. + KRVAVI MANDAT + GAMAD [1996] Voliš Hrvatsku? (cass)

Ok, this tape is very dear to me, I used to listen to it a lot back at the time when it came out. It should have been a split tape between S.M.C. (btw, you can find S.M.C.'s split tape with Desinence Mortification in my previous post) and Krvavi Mandat, but I guess as Dado B. who put this release together hated to waste tape, he added Gamad as a bonus on it. S.M.C. were a great crust/grind/punk band from the town of Pula, some folks from S.M.C. are now playing in Bolesno Grinje (a band I recommend checking out if you're interested in crust/hardcore/punk - try their Official page or their MySpace). Krvavi Mandat were from Zagreb and are considered to be one of legendary crust/punk bands from here (I had a lot of requests for uploading them, so I guess they are still remembered). Gamad was a side project band for Tarić, the singer of Krvavi Mandat, and beside this release I think Gamad never released anything else...
Well, I hope you will like this post, and like it usually goes with D.I.Y. Croatian tapes from the 1990's, I must warn you that the quality of this recording isn't the best, but if you just play it loudest you can all will be fine (except, maybe, your neighbours will hate you even more).

INTOXICATE [2006] Toxic Years

I have posted Intoxicate on Nečista Savjest before, it was their split tape with Radikalna Promjena which you can check out here. They are a crust band from a town of Samobor in Croatia and they play this dirty, darkish crust. I have seen Intoxicate live on several occasions, and it was a great (and very drunk) experience. The band is no longer active, and this release is a sort of discography cd of theirs. Some people involved in Intoxicate went on to play in bands like True and Johann Wolfgang Pozoj, so it looks like Samobor scene is still going on pretty good. Cheers to folks from Samobor!

TURBONEGRO [2003] Scandinavian Leather

Still staying in more commercial waters with this post, I was rummaging thru my cd collection recently and found this cd which brought a smile on my face. Turbonegro are from Norway and they play this weird mix of punk/metal/rock music they call deathpunk and it's a good name to describe their music. This is Turbonegro's fifth album, I like it quite a lot (although my personal favourite album by Turbonegro is “Ass Cobra”) and I hope you will like it too. So let's all dress up in denim jackets & leather pants & sailor hats and have a Turbojugend party!
