Hard Rock, Heavy Metal

(10 tracks, 40':14'', Vinyl~Audacity~WAV~Mp3@320kbps +FLAC)

Precej dobra Hard Rock, na momente čisto Heavy Metal plata. QM smo lahko slišali na pred 10. leti izdani vinilki 'Kje je odgovor!'. Izbor na omenjeni izdaji je iz starejšega obdobja, ko si igrali še bolj punk in hc, vendar so že nakazovali, da jih zanima tudi malo širokopoteznejši žanrski met v stilu Hard Rocka 80ih. 

T.i. Self titled albumu nimam kaj očitati. Mogoče manjka malo kompozicijske igrivosti in naglas pevca je pravi kleni early 90s slo-angleški, ampak med boljšimi vseeno. Inštrumentalno presenetljivo dobro odigrano in tudi posneto. Komad Jazzie zmaga z utrganostjo. 

Škoda bi bila tole ne slišati. Na YouTube je cel album, vendar vam priporočam vseeno poslušanje tega ripa, ker je res lepo ratal, btw: plošča fizično je vrhunsko prešana. Album oz. upload na YT dela krivico kakovostnemu zvoku na tej plati. 

---------------------------------

This is very good Hard Rock and even Heavy Metal from the start of the 90's. 

The sound is good for Yugoslavian rock standards in that era. Music itself is kinda simple from todays point of view, but I am very surrprised how good these dudes played this thing from start to end. I must mention there was more punk and hc beginning of the band, which is represented in late post-release of it on 'Kje je odgovor' compilation from 2012. 

This is a good listen for any 80's hard rock fan, no mater the location. These is also a YT uplod of this album, but is unjustly shit.

Punk, Garage R'n'R

(2 tracks, 5 min, 7''~ Audacity~FLAC@16 bits)

---------------------------------

New music after 19 years (!) from one of the best R'n'R bands out there. I played a lot around the turntable and equipment and this is the best I could get out. Good, fast tracks in manner of their legacy. I only wish for a properly recorded full album and something like 'new Leave them all behind' for 2020s.

Enclosed in RockHard Magazine Slovenia 6/2009 and given for free at Metal Planet Festival 2009

Tracklist is printed wrongly. "Suicide Death" is missed out on the sleeves back. It's recorded normally as separate track, therefore 'Shadows on the village / Sabacios' and tracks later are wrongly listed.

Grindcore / Anarcho punk

(21 tracks, 48 min, Cassette~Audacity~Mp3@320kbps)

Zgodnji relis obeh bandov. 

Sodn dan kasneje posname skoraj vse komade na novo in jih izda na svojih kasnejših izdajah.  

Tudi od Aktivne komadi se znajdejo na kasnejšem albumu, a ne vsi. 

Skratka delno demo zadeva, ki ni čisto demo, je pa direkt v žilo.

Dobra punkačina za tiste, ki ne nucamo nujno speglane produkcije.

---------------------------------

This is early release of two Slovenian bands already presented here with most of their later releases. Sodn Dan is grindcore band from Železniki and Aktivna Propaganda is anarcho punk band from Ljubljana. Most of these songs are later re-recorded and released on various releases.

Good primal blast from cassette days past.

(8 tracks, 28 min, Cassette~Audacity~Mp3@320kbps)

Evo na 13. rojstni dan tega bloga oz. prve objave leta 2008 (katere link še vedno dela, AVE Mediafire!), vam z veseljem serviram eno meni ljubših in najposebnejših domačih alter. skupin: Polska malca (ustanovljena 1982).

Vedno malo odštekani in posebni ne glede na zasedbo, katero so skozi čas kar nekajkrat malo prevetrili. 

Muziko verjetno poznate, giblje pa se od inštrumentalne na obeh vinilnih izdajah, do bolj žanrsko razširjenega rocka z vokalom, kot lahko slišimo na tej izdaji. Kasete sam še nisem slišal do pred kratkim. Album je vrhunski, ni pa lahek in prijazen hitremu poslušalcu. Poslušajte večkrat, vsak komad skriva genialne kose rock'n'rolla in je v celoti preprosto mojstrovina tistega časa. Kot rečeno ni na prvo žogo in ni se za čudit, da nekega komercialnega dometa sredi 90. ni bil deležen. Besedila in glas Miloša Radosavljevića ustvarijo mračen duh, verjetno je zvočna težina naravna posledica osebnih borb in pečat post-socialističnega juriša v kapitalizem. 

Komadi so posneti leta 1994 v zasedbi: Gianni Kovač - bas, Uroš Srpčič - bobni (tudi Demolition Group, Lolita), Tomaž Urh - kitara (tudi Mama Dolores), Bojan Stopar - kitara (tudi Phonebox Vandals, Baby Zdravo, bobni Res Nullius), Miloš Radosavljević - vokal (tudi It’s not for sale, Non Finire Mai, Shiam).

Diskografija - Polska Malca:

-  kompilacija kaseta: Čudeža ne bo (VF založba, 1985)

-  kompilacija kaseta: Provinca vrača udarec (label Slovenija, 1986)

-  LP Mojster s snežinko (Front Rock, 1990)

-  LP Polska Malca (RPN records, 1991)

-  kompilacija CD: No Border Jam (Front Rock, 1993)

-  kaseta Children Game (Malca Records, 1995) 

---------------------------------

This is for me personally one of the best Slovenian bands with great musical skill, formed in 1982. It changed members along the way, obviously sound and direction also. They have released 3 full lengths with 2 on vinyl and this one, as their last release, on tape. Appeared on many compilations and live tapes. Their music was mostly instrumental hardcore to math and something in between. 

This tape is all over alternative genres. It's everything but fast casual listen. You mustn't rush this one and give it couple of runs. It's some sort of masterpiece of that era. It's dark and heavy in it's own way. Personal struggles and stamp of new born republic of Slovenia ending episode of collective nation's history and stirring a lot of unknown waters in the sea of future. Members went to play other bands later and some are still musically active.

Tale zadeva mi že dolgo stoji na polici, ker mi noben player ni hotel prebrati CD-Rja. Evo sedaj imam nek nov player in je po kar nekaj ponovnega poskušanja zadevo celo zripal.

Tretji relis GUB, po s/t prvencu (2005) in Nikad pankera od nas (2009)

Naravnost in brez ovinkarjenja. Dober pristni stari punk z malce anarcho in street primesi. 

Upam, da izdajo še kdaj kaj in da se spet vrnemo na koncerte. Band očitno še obstaja, čeprav bo že kar 7 let počasi od te izdaje.

Band (GUB - meaning 'crowded, without personal space family house') formed in 2004 when they started as high-school lads with some covers and own material s/t demo (2005), later switched to more street oriented sound Nikad pankera od nas (2009)  and for their last (hope not least) they bring best of straight forward 'primal' Punk, with some street feel.
