ROMANIA UNDERGROUND [Rebel Planet Records, 1991]

Second post in rapid succession!




This time its the second of four Rebel Planet tapes ROMANIA UNDERGROUND, hopefully in the coming weeks I'll have the Hongkong Underground tape that I can post. Very excited to hear the bands on that tape!

This tape, like the Makarene Underground cassette, was compiled by Lük Haas and features 6 underground thrash metal bands. Very killer stuff, super raw and lots of spirit. If you're already a fan of the old Quebecois or South American thrash metal acts like Soothsayer, Voor, or Reencarnacion, etc. you'll definitely dig this material, which is all live recordings. Very cool.




And a quick search on metal archives shows that only one of the bands, Tectonic, has a page. Which in my minds means that the other bands are insanely obscure. That website is known to have literally everything documented as far as metal goes. 

The stand out band is Roata, who play a pop punk song and a new wavy song. Very strange to have those tracks put right in the middle of thrash metal bands. The new wavy song is very good.
