(28 tracks, 80min, CD~EAC~Lame~Mp3@V0, 141MB)


Pred kratkim je luč sveta ugledala kompilacija priredb skupine Center Za Dehumanizacijo, mladih slovenskih (ter nekaj tujih) in tudi nekaj veteranskih bandov (Wasserdicht, Hum, Pridigarji..). Bendi komade od CZD odigrajo v svojem lastnem slogu in interpretaciji, kar je gotovo edino naravno za kompilacijo / poklon tega tipa.
Skratka pohvale vredna 'stvaritev' različnih glasbenih slogov in pristopov k prepakiranju legendarnih CZD komadov.
Zrcalo Dehumanizacije je gotovo zanimiv dokument zapuščine CZD in presek trenutne mlade punkrock scene v Sloveniji.

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


Here is a newer project - Tribute to Slovenian punk group CZD ('Center for Dehumanization'). Younger and some veteran punk and rock bands approached CZD legacy from their own point of view, and besides natural tribute to the work of CZD, that is what gives this compilation a place in Slovenian rock history.

Hardcore

(09 tracks, 25min, CDR~EAC~Lame~Mp3@320kbps, 61MB)


Danes sem v paketu skupaj z Birds in a Row Lpjko, za darilo ob napovedanem dolgem čakanju dobil tudi dva lušna bonbona in eden izmed njih je tale CDr v lični kartonasti embalaži, omejeni na 100 kosov (drugi je Nine Eleven - City of Quartz 7", katerega še nisem zarolal).
Hja grški hardcore, ko sem dal v player nisem pričakoval pravzaprav ničesar. Računal sm na kako počasno wannabe žaganje ali pa umazano crustersko dretje in temačno škripanje kitare. A že takoj sem bil prav prijetno presenečen. Dobra zvokovna produkcija in svetovno primerljiv šopanac od prvega komada dalje. Rivals ga žgejo v maniri Section 8 in Have Heart. Tako da v devetih komadih slišimo hitro drvenje v old school stilu in modernejši tako imenovani novi hardcore, kjer se zadava rahlo upočasni. Vse pa vsebuje veliko melodike in dovolj razgibanosti, da si želiš album poslušati večkrat in ne bo romal na najbolj oddaljeno polico.

Kot rečeno idealno za fene Comeback Kid, Have Heart, Section 8, Bane.. Zelo pohvalna izdaja za prvenec, upam da naredijo še kaj in da se ne upočasnijo in razjokajo preveč, kot je danes vse prevečkrat praksa (beri Defeater).

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


Here is a nice blastin hardcore debut album from Greek band Rivals!
It was released for UK label Brain Ache and comes in a recycled cardboard sleeve, limited and numbered to only 100 copies. Melodic and quality produced hardcore.. Perfect band for fans of Have Heart, Bane, Comeback Kid and even old school style like Swedish Section 8 played.

Leto je naokoli in dočakali smo nov album, kjer se poezija in rock dopolnjujeta, in prinašata nov paket kvalitetne slovenske glasbe.
Tudi tokrat na kompilaciji najdemo razne glasbene zvrsti, katere gravitirajo na rock, od punka in garažnega rocka do akustičnih kantavtorskih skladb in lahkotnega pop rocka.

Priporočam.

(09 tracks, 30min, CD~EAC~Lame~Mp3@320kbps, 73MB)


Anaerobina crustpunk mašina je zalaufala v začetku novega tisočletja. Po veliko live izkušnjah, posnetih live komadov in demotov ter tudi menjavi članov, je na vrsto prišlo snemanje pravega albuma, sicer bolj v demo maniri leta 2008. Ob dobrem masteringu pa so ti posnetki našli svojo pot na (mislim da) prvi pravi album 'Over the walls and borders'. Album je izdan na CDju in Lpju - na težki 180gramski, bordo rdeči, z črno zapacani vinilki.
Oba formata drvečega in močnega crustpunka si le omislite, z naročilom na Mankind Disaster distru!
Bolj obširna biografija pa se v branje ponuja na njihovem MySpace profilu.

Skratka hitra in razgibana simfonija hardcora z temačnim in močnim crust vokalom. Odlično za nabijanje v avtu pred kolosejem ali na parkirišču pred ambasado!

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

Ow yeah, the Slovenian crustpunk train gets a new dose of steam with this release.
The band formed back in 1999 with plenty of live experience and also band changes stays true to them selfs.
Nine tracks of raging punkcrust hardcore will not live you cold.
Read the bands full bio at their MySpace profile.

I should mention they have also had planned a live split with Tragedy back in 2001, but sadly the recordings got stolen when some lowlife broke in to the club where they were stored...

Be sure to get the album as CD or 180g colored vinyl (with different back side art) at their home distro - Mankind Disaster!

Lokalne Pizde - Slovenija




Lokalne Pizde - Slovenija?, 1998

Slovenia
Chaos Records (diy), 1998
Garage/punkrock/r'n'r

(12 tracks, 24min, CDr~EAC~Lame~Mp3@320kbps, 62MB)


Lokalne Pizde so celjska zasedba ustanovljena konec 80ih. Tole je najbrž edini izdan album izdan 1998.
Igrali so mešanico garažnega in oldschool punka in rock 'n' rola.
Na nedavno izdanem kompilacijskem CDju 'Pebi ne strelat - Celjska scena 1980-2000' so zastopani z komadom 'Jutro'.

Provokativna naslovnica in komad 'Pedri smrdijo' so bili baje takrat tudi predmet raznih polemik in zgražanj. Kasneje naj bi njihov član Pero zanikal homofobno konotacijo besedila in namignil na provokacijo v smislu kritiziranja večinskega mnenja in slovenske družba, kar so v bistvu tudi besedila ostalih komadov.

Dva člana, Pero Schmidt in Matjaž Naglič, pa sta danes člana banda Stranci.

Mimogrede, na cdju se komadi zvrstijo nekoliko drugače, kot so označeni na zadnji strani albuma.

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



Lokalne Pizde was a old school punk/garage band from Celje in Slovenia.
The band was formed in late 80's and was active till 1998.

The cover on the album showing politic in German nazi uniform and son 'Fags stink' raised a lot of controversy in time after release. In a recent interview one band member confirmed that it wasn't meant to be insulting and that it was a critic of general public views, as a mater of fact the whole album is.

Two band members now play in a band called Stranci.

diy, 2010
punk/ska/hc..

(14 tracks, 38min, CD~EAC~Lame~Mp3@192kbps, 53MB)


Evo na dovoljenje oz. prošnjo skupine objavljam najbolj svežo punk izdajo pri nas. Kot vedno, tudi tokrat apel na vas, da album kupite in tako podprete skupino!
Spodaj navajam še kratek opis oz. bio, kot ga je zapisala skupina sama.


''Pigs Parlament so 6 članska skupina, ki prihaja iz Goriških Brd — dežele opojnih trenutkov. Svojo glasbeno pot so začeli v začetku leta 2004. Skupina igra hitri punk rock z udarnim vokalom, ki ga spremljajo melodični backvokali. V njihovih pesmih najdete tudi ska vplive, ki so podkrepljeni s trobento ter udaren hardcore z ženskim vokalom. Za skupino je značilno, da se glavni vokali menjujejo iz pesmi v pesem. Njihov recept: Wine power!

Za seboj imajo že dva demo albuma in sicer iz leta 2004 in 2006. Leta 2009 so sodelovali tudi pri nastanku kompilacije Od Soče do Korna. Tako jim je končno, po 6 letih ustvarjanja, letos uspelo posneti in izdati prvenec »It's time for sausages«. Na albumu lahko najdete 14 zelo različnih skladb, med katerimi so tudi dve priredbi: Hej brigade in Let's twist again. Kot zanimivost, so pesem Hej brigade posneli v sodelovanju s pevskim zborom in malim orkestrom, kar pesem zelo popestri. Na cd-ju lahko opazite zelo različne stile glasbe; od regija, ska-ja, punka, hardcora do celo thrash in heavy metal vložkov. Kot zanimivost, so fantje in punca posneli tudi pesem u italijanskem jeziku. Nakup cd-ja vam zelo priporočamo.''

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


The freshest release on the Slovenian punkrock scene is the album you have in front.
I used the bands own description/bio. If you like it, please buy the CD. 


''Pigs parlament, a band of six members, was formed in the winter of 2004. Their homeland is a small and picturesque region in western Slovenia, called Goriška Brda, a land of (full of intoxicating moments/substances.
They play a quick and energetic punk rock with a strong main male vocal supported by melodic back vocals. In their songs is also possible to find ska influences supported by the melodic sound of the trumpet and energetic hardcore female vocal. One of the many characteristics of the band is the changing of the main vocal from song to song. Their recipe: Wine power!

They accomplished to produce two demo albums in 2004 and 2006. In 2009 the band took active part in the making of the compilation Od Soče do Korna (From Soča to Korn). In the end, in May 2010, the boys and girl managed to produce their first album “It’s time for sausages”. The content of the album consists of 14 very different songs, two of which are (arrangemenst/covers) adaptations; Hej brigade and Let’s twist again. The particularity of Hej brigade is the variegation to which contributed the collaboration with a smaller choir and orchestra. On the album is possible to feel many different genres of music: from ska to punk, hardcore and even thrash and heavy metal riffs. The boys and girl have also recorded a song in Italian. If you are eager to hear some quality punk rock music, we strongly recommend you the purchase of their new album.''

Serbia
HA-KO bastards , 2009
Hardcore-punk

(05 tracks, 20min, CDr~EAC~Lame~Mp3@320kbps, 45MB)

Unison je utečen in samosvoj hardcore band iz Beograda. Za seboj imajo že kar zavidljivo bero izdaj, samostojnih in dva splita (z/ Senata Fox, Analena).
Band odlikuje tudi očitno obvladanje inštrumentov, kar jim omogoča ustvarjanje edinstvenega in zelo razgibanega hardcore-punka, kateri prestopa tudi v post hardcore mojstrovine, kot naprimer v komadu 'In The Rear View'.

'Pearls before swine' je njihova aktualna izdaja, sicer posneta 2007, zapakirana v preprost, a simpatičen, diy papirnat žepek. Verjetno pa si lahko kmalu obetamo tudi kakšno novo izdajo, saj imajo na myspace strani kar nekaj novih komadov, ki jih seveda lahko tudi poslušate.

Kaj veliko drugega niti nevem, niti ni za reči, kot da gre za zelo zanimiv band z, na prostoru bivše yuge, redko slišanim načinom hardcoriranja. Vsekakor si zaslužijo vašo pozornosti in seveda še bolj, da v svojo zbirko uvrstite tudi kak njihov album!   

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

Unison is a band from Belgrade, Serbia. They are experienced and technically very strong band.
Their hardcore is of a kind, rarely to be heard here, in countries of ex Yugoslavia.
Many releases and splits testify that Unison is not just another hardcore band, but is worth checking out.

Their hardcore-punk that sometimes follows the way of post hardcore is unique and rich instrumentally.
You might not dig their way of expressing their music, but be sure to check them out, and if you like them buy one of their records released also on vinyl !

Samo Za Dnar - Samo za dnar



SZD - Samo za dnar, 2010

Slovenia
Front Rock, 2010
Punk

(17 tracks, 40min, CD~EAC~Lame~Mp3@320kbps, 96MB)


Samo za dnar obstajajo že 10 let. Njihov najnovejši projekt je album priredb skupine CZD.
A ne gre samo za klasične priredbe, saj so se fantje hoteli vživeti v komade same, vse od procesa nastajanja pesmi do preigravanja in odigravanja v studiu in v živo, z veliko mero približevanja originalu.
Gre za neko vrsto iluzije, saj bi površen poslušalec zlahka zatrdil da pesmi igrajo CZD.
Vseeno je čutiti majhno razliko, mogoče predvsem v rahlo bolj tekoče-punkrokovskim
in garažnim 'flovom' muzike.
Torej SZD so z tem albumom naredili redkost v glasbenem svetu. Na novo so posneli že obstoječe pesmi, s tem da jih praktično niso spreminjali. Ohranili so besedila, aranžmaje, ritme in inštrumentalno zastopanost.
Če so bili ti komadi prej striktno avtorska last CZD, so to zdaj (tudi) komadi skupine SZD?

recenzija na RockOnNet
SZD MySpace

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

SZD (Samo za dnar = Only for money) is a band existing for over 10 years. And they have strangely (but very intentionally and with cooperation with original authors) decided to record an album of songs that were already recorded by another group CZD.
The illusion is that songs are played almost the same as the original ones by CZD.
There is a bit different feel when you hear it, but someone that knows only CZD would easily claim this songs are played by CZD, but here he would be wrong.

So who do this songs now belong? Are they still songs from CZD or are the new authors SZD? Interesting concept that probably wasn't brought up before so intentionally, as it was with this project.

Not The Same / Headstrong - split



Not The Same / Headstrong (split 7'')

Slovenia
Pancake Records, 1998
Punkrock/skate punk

(04 tracks, 11min, 7''~Sony IC recorder~Mp3@192kbps, 22MB)

Not The Same verjetno vsi poznate, če ne iz koncertov, pa verjetno zaradi takrat precej priljubljenega albuma 'Hate', kateri je eden prvih punk albumov, ki je pripeljal ameriški 90's melodični punkrock v domače loge.
Headstrong igrajo precej sorodno muziko, nevem pa če so še izdali še kaj razen tega splita.
'Without you' od NTS lahko slišite tudi na albumu 'Hate', 'Blackhole' pa je verjetno izdana samo na tem splitu.

(Kvaliteta tega ripa je malce šepava, zaradi moje 'vrhunske' opreme. Je pa ok za slišat kaj se skriva na temle na 321 kosov omejenem 7inču, če ste ga pač sfalili).

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

Not the same was one of first slovenian punkrock bands in 90's that followed at that time popular melodic punkrock and skate influenced punk as was heard from Epitaph and Fat Wreck bands.
Headstrong play something similar, but I think they never got to release a full length album like Not The Same did with 'Hate' in 1998. First track 'Without you' can also be found on the mentioned album, while 'Blackhole' wasn't released elsewhere but this split.
The 7'' was recorded way back in 1998 and printed in only 321 copies.

(The quality of the rip is a bit crappy, thanks to my lack of time and money to get a better equipment, but it will give you a taste what's locked on the clear green plastic).

Slovenia
Chainsaw Records, 2010
punkrock/melodycore

(16 tracks, 34min, CD~EAC~Lame~Mp3@320kbps, 86MB)


Golliwog so trenutno najbolj vroč slovenski punkrock/punk band. To sama po sebi potrjuje njihova kvaliteta in profesionalnost zadnjega (in tudi prejšnjega) albuma.
Plague Allegiance je super album, ki z vso častjo nasleduje prejšnjega (More than meets diy, iz leta 2006). Kolikor sem zasledil je album odlično sprejet tudi (ali predvsem?) izven Slovenije.
Band nadaljuje s hitrimi in melodičnimi komadi v stilu melodycore bandov iz 90ih.
Močno je zastopan tudi vpliv Nofx, vendar ne preveč moteče, saj njihovi komadi vseeno odzvenijo sveže.
Besedila se gibljejo od zafrkancije do opozarjanja na svetovno ureditev in celo skrivnostnih a očitno vplivnih (konspirativnih) organizacij in pojavov.

Definitvno priporočam nabavo tega albuma (najbolje kar direkt od banda), saj je gotovo ena boljših izdaj domače punkrock scene v zadnjih letih, sploh, če ste odrasli z melodičnim (skate komerc) punkom sredi 90ih.

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


Golliwog is one of the hottest Slovenian punkrock bands on the scene. Their f-male fronted fast and melodic punkrock is very well accepted all over the world, even though 90's are gone long time ago, this album will take you to the best years of that era melodycore.
After debut (1st real) album 'More than meets DIY' from 2006, this album is logical sequel of their sound.
How can you go wrong with 16 tracks of melodic punk with lyrics about world order and (secret) organizations?

Be sure to grab the CD that comes with thick booklet and cool designed digipak. I doubt you'll regret it.

Choke Up so precej nov band iz Bostona. Špilajo simpatčno mešanico sicer že velikokrat slišanih žanrov od pop punk melodij do hardcore in screamo delov. Mogoče res nič neverjetno novega, pa vseeno nekoliko drugače od poplave današnjih mainstream punk bandov, ki so vsi isti. Tako da priporočam poslušanje fanom Lawrence Arms, Title Fight, zgodnjih Against Me in celo suverenih Comadre.

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

Choke up is a band from Boston, Massachusetts . They bring you their first Ep with 5 songs. It's not something revolutionary, but still they keep their head above average mainstream punk bands these days, with interesting mix of pop punk melodies with more hardcore and even screamo parts and vocals.

Hardcore/powerviolence

(14 tracks, 10min, Cassette~GTpro~EAC~Lame~Mp3@320kbps, 25MB)


Mladina Kina so mladci iz Dravograda, ki igrajo straight edge hardcore, hiter in agresivni komadi so blizu powerviolence in thrash stilu. Besedila so ekstremno kritična do vsega in vseh, ki ne sledijo totalni alternativi in punk duhu iz dna srca.
Na momente se mi zdi, da v besedilih praktično ne jebejo nikogar, če ni tako diy kot oni in ne počne tega kar oni. Sicer kritizirajo predvsem ukaluplanje, kopiranje oz. fake punk in skate sceno, pa vendar se mi zdi da malce pretiravajo, saj ni nihče tako črn ali bel, kot je mogoče razbrati iz njihovih besedil.

Sicer pa vsak si lahko ustvari svoje mnenje, saj so besedila za vse komade zraven.
Pred kratkim so jih tudi metali ven iz dravograškega kina, kjer so vadili postavljali diy studio in skate rampo. Nevem kako se je zadeva razpletla, upam pa, da so sedaj našli svoj prostor pod soncem.

Skratka super scena, da furajo svoj hardcore, popolnoma diy in underground.
Kratki komadi, polni šusa, zdrvijo mimo v pičlih 10ih minutah.
Posnet imajo tudi 3way split z Vaseline Chilldren in Home Sick Home, ter samostojen CDr z komadi z tega splita.

Za kontakt in muziko pišite na kakega od teh emailov.

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

Mladina Kina (Cinema Youth) is straight edge hardcore/powerviolence band from Dravograd, Slovenia. They play very short powerful hardcore tracks with intolerance towards anything fake, not honest and unoriginal in lifestyle and music.

The name comes from place (abandoned cinema) where they practiced, skated and recorded their music as well as releasing zine called Kino. I don't know if they are still allowed to use it, since they had some problems with authorities. 
They have also released a 3way split with Croatian Home sick home and Vaseline Children.

Slovenia
Front Rock, 1996
Punk

(27 tracks, 70min, CD~EAC~Lame~Mp3@320kbps, 163MB)


Pokozlane trate je eden bolj markatnih albumov CZD. Na njem se razvrsti časovnica komadov vse od leta 1986 do 1995.
Tudi te komade zaznamuje močna besedna lirika ki stalno hodi čez rob uglasbljene poezije.
Zvočno gre za prepoznaven CZD slog, punk v katerem je moč slišati tudi sprehode do industriala in novega vala.
Upal bi si trditi, da je projekt Pokozlane trate najmočnejši člen CZD diskografije.


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

This is CZD's album featuring songs from 1986 to 1995. It is typical CZD sound with poetic lyrics (in Slovene) and punk music that includes industrial and new wawe elements. It is definitely one of their best and most representative work in their large discography collection.

Aktualni (drugi) album zelo melodičnega, temačnega in počasnega emo-hardcore banda iz Češke.

Mislim da so fantje vse povedali sami, gre za raztur-HC, izkušenih bendašov. Dodana so besedila z razlago v slovenščini in angleščini, kar je super, sploh dandanes ko so besedila zmeraj bolj zgolj 'tekst'.
Super bi bilo da band nadaljuje z ustvarjanjem in posname še kaj.

Če boste pohiteli pa si na zgoraj navedenem emailu lahko omislite svoj primerek tegale oštevilčenega demota.
Narejenih je bilo le 50 kosov.

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

This is a newer band, from west Slovenia region, that plays dark and angry hardcore with strong influences in metal, crust and sludge. They refer their lyrics to darker side of human inner self and monstrosity of informational society, nevertheless their voice does not call for surrender or despair, but hope for change for the better.

The band is formed by members from retired and still active bands like: Elodea, Man In the Shadow, Kennybal Smith, A Murder Theory, The Hoax Program, Lowpunch...

After six months they feel ready to play some gigs. If you wanna help them with that, contact for support or anything else write: here

This demo is nicely done in diy style with lyrics and thick printed cdr.
Grab it till it's still available, it's limited to 50 copies only.
This download contains explained lyrics in English and Slovene!

Punk

(26 tracks, 68min, CD~?~?~Mp3@192kbps, 40MB)


Nikoli več je bil festival na mariborskem koncu. Nevem kolikokrat je bil izveden. V glavnem predpostavljam, da ta kompilacija predstavlja bande, ki so na njem nastopili leta 1998.  Posnetki niso live iz tega festivala.
Na CDju se je zvrstilo  nekaj bolj aktivnih punk bandov iz 90ih.
Redka in dost zanimiva punk kompilacjia.  Če kdo proda, kupim.

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

This is a rare CD compilation of bands that played on Nikoli več (Never again) festival in 1998.
The recordings are not live and the compilation features more active punk bands from 90's in Slovenia.

Pogrešana Kvaliteta - PK 2008

Slovenia
diy
PUNK

(08 tracks, 13min, CD-R~EAC~Lame~Mp3@320kbps, 40MB)


Evo to je še drugi album (ep) punkerjev Pogrešana Kvaliteta.
So eni redkih  ki šopajo tak pravi punk in nimajo majspejsov in fejsbukov, ter izdajajo muziko na sodobni kaseti (beri cdr) z fotokopiranimi ovitki. Kar jim preprosto paše (ne da bi jih s tem podcenjeval).

Besedila so punkersko kritična, a niso klišejsko prazna kot kaki novi niet. Priporočam da jih preberete saj zato tudi so!
Njihov prvi album lahko potegnete tu: PK - Novo upanje.
Pišite za muziko in podporo na njihov uradni fan club: pmlacnik@gmail.com, hecni_likalnik@hotmail.com

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

Pogrešana Kvaliteta (Missing Quality) is one of the last real punk bands in Slovenia. They play fast, record at home and spread music with home made cdrs.
Lyrics are in Slovene and they are critical towards todays apathy and senseless capitalistic 'everyone for himself' living.

Their first album: PK - Novo upanje (New hope)

Tu je še ena izdaja Backstage, ki jih vsi poznate, če ne iz samostojnih koncertov, pa gotovo kot predskupino mnogim punk 'zvezdam', ki so igrali v Sloveniji.
Tole je na CD ujet koncert iz 8.9.2006 v Gala Hali na Metelkovi. 

Posnetki so kakovostni in tudi fantje (v še originalni postavi) so dali vse od sebe.
Set pa je odlično zašpinjen z priredbo 'Do what you want' od Bad Religion.
Vredno poslušanja  za vse njihove oboževalce in ljubitelje melodičnega punkrocka.

Tale CD je še navoljo. Kupite in s tem podprite band in založbo Kapa tu: http://www.galahala.com/

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

This is a live release from one of the best melodic punkrock bands from Slovenia, that played numerous shows and released 2 studio albums before this one.
The show happened at Metelkova venue on 8th of September 2006.

This is their last release before the line change.
Worth checking out if you like melodic (skate) punk-rock.
You can still buy it (along with other Kapa releases) here: http://www.galahala.com/

Scuffy Dogs - Scuffy Dogs




Scuffy Dogs - self titled (black), 2001

Slovenia
FrontRock, 2001
Punk (ska)

(12 tracks, 30min, CD~EAC~Lame~Mp3@320kbps, 74MB)


Scuffy Dogs so danes že veterani slovenske punk scene, saj njihovi začetki segajo že v leto 1994.
Njihove uradne izdaje so prvi self titled CD, 7inch, split LP z Wasserdicht in drugi self titled, katerega imate pred sabo. Pojavili so se tudi na mnogih kompilacijah in seveda tresli odre doma in v tujini.
Natančnejšo biografijo si preberite na njihovi myspace strani.

Scuffiji igrajo oster punkrock, v katerega sem pa tja vmešajo tudi ska komade.
Ko sem prvič poslušal tale t.i. black album mi ni preveč potegnil, ko sem ga po parih mesecih ponovno vložil v player pa sem užival, kot že dolgo ne, ob malce starejši domači produkciji.
Sicer kratek, a suveren in melodičen punk CD od začetka do konca.

Scuffiji so nedelovali kar nekaj let, umrl pa je tudi basist Ivan Sirk.
Letos pa so napovedali reunion, sicer nevem če tudi comeback.
Koncert v goriški Mostovni se bo zgodil prav danes, na dan te objave, kar je sicer naklučje, ali pa me vodi nevidna sila, ki je prepričala moje nevrone da objavim tale njihov album.
Prvi self titled z mnogo več komadi je dostopen na kar nekaj drugih blogih, split z Wasserdicht pa pride enkrat v prihodnosti.

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

Scuffy Dogs is a band existing since 1994. They play uncompromised punkrock and sometimes even ska.
They have released 2 full lengths both self titled, 7inch, Lp split with crust/HC Wasserdicht and appeared on various compilations.
They were not very active after this 2001 release, and also their bass player Ivan Sirk passed away in that time.
This year Scuffy Dogs are ready to strike back, well at least live (tonight in Nova Gorica).

Check this CD, it features quality melodic punk. It is nothing extra special, but it's a solid album that you will most likely enjoy.

TavžntRoža - Sazas Fuck Off




TavžntRoža - Sazas Fuck Off, 2007

Slovenia
diy, 2007
punk/garage/r'n'r

(23 tracks, 52 min, CD-R~iTunes~iTunes7.6~Mp3@VBR, 102MB)


Tavžntroža je sicer precej ogabna žganica, ampak fantje iz Dolenjskih Toplic igrajo garažni punk/rock'n'roll, ki je daleč od neprebavljivega.
Tavžntroža obstaja od 2004 in jo sestavljajo Andrej-kitara/glas,
Stef-bobni in Janez-bas/občasno glas.
Glede na to, da člani igrajo (ali so) še v nekaterih alter. rock/hc zasedbah (Poljska strašila, Corcoras, Necropopcorn..) jim izkušenj gotovo ne manjka, neznanka pa jim niso niti nastopi tako doma kot v tujini.

Sazas Fuck Off je sicer precej dolg album in najbrž je na njemu večina obsotječih posnetkov te skupine. Dolžina tu seveda ni problem, saj Tavžntroža žgejo, od prvega do zadnjega komada, kvaliteten in surov garage punk, kakršnega se ne bi sramovali niti kakšni veliko bolje sproducirani Zeke. Mogoče sam pogrešam kakšne malo bolj melodične dele, ki pa v garage punku itak niso preveč doma.
Komadi so v angleščini in slovenščini, besedila (kolikor se jih da razumeti) pa vsakdanje zajebantska in tudi kritična, kar pove že naslov tega diy albuma.

Neverjamem da si MZ Hektor nabija tole, vi pa le uživajte (pa vseeno previdno če boste poslušali v avtu).

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

Tavžntroža (1000flowers - strong herbal brandy) is a three piece band from Dolenjske Toplice, playing fast garage/punk since 2004.
Experienced musicians bring you 23 tracks of diy tracks in English and Slovene. Worth checking out if you like Zeke, Puffball or just fast r'n'r punk.

Sazas mentioned in title is a Slovenian monopole copy rights agency that feeds only very well to do artists, when it leaves only crumbs or nothing to smaller independent bands and concert organizers.

Melete - Tour Ep + 7inch




Melete - Tour Ep + 7'', 2010

Slovenia
diy
emo/crust HC

(07 tracks, 24 min, CDR~EAC~Lame~Mp3@320kbps, 58MB)


Melete so prijetno presenečenje domače diy scene.
Posneli so dve izdaji (Tour Ep, '08 in 7inch, '09), ki sta združeni v tretjo, katero imate pred seboj.
Emo inštumentalni deli, mešani z dokaj temačnim post-crust hardcorom so pač nekaj, kar ni vsakdanje na domači sceni. Fantje niso zanemarili niti sporočilnost besedil, kar daje bandu dodaten pečat.

7 inčna plastika, tega dokaj mladega banda, je zapakirana v zelo všečen ovitek z dodano knjižico.
(Knjižica je dodana tudi tejle kombinaciji obeh izdaj).
Kljub temu da niso inštrumentalni virtuzi, je to pravzaprav popolnoma nemoteče in se jim zlahka odpusti, sploh ko iz zvočnikov useka prvi komad 7inča 'Sungaze'.
Čeprav je odlično ideja, da so vse svoje posnetke zapekli na diy cdr, je samostojni 7inch prepričljivejše glasbeno doživetje in se malce oddalji od mirnih čustvenih inštrumentalnih delih, slišanih na Tour Epju.
Konec koncev bil izdan kot samostojni plošček in je ta opazka nepotrebna.

Melete napovedujejo snemanje svojega prvega pravega albuma že ta mesec. Po slišanem, si lahko obetamo novo poslastico domačega HC podzemlja.

Lahko jih podprete, kontaktirate in seveda naročite njihovo muziko z obiskom njihove spletne strani:

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

Melete is a young band that mixes emo instrumental parts and social melancholy with dark post-crust hardcore with message.
They have released Tour Ep and s/t 7inch in diy style. Both are joined on cdr release that you are looking at.
Powerful and also melodic emotional crustcore is not very often to be heard from Slovenian bands.

The 7inch is a bit more complete experience than both releases together, but that's why it was released separately. Diy cover and booklet of the 7'' are done very well and I recommend you grab it till it's still available.

Contact, support and order their music at their site: http://bizniscore.blogspot.com/
