Blood of the Old World



Blood of the Old World - V/A











I don't remember where and when I got this, and so far I'm unable to get any info regarding when this was compiled, but it's got some great goth, deathrock and post punk bands from all of Europe during the 80's. Standouts in my opinion are Siekiera(Poland, their album "Nowa Aleksandria" is a personal fave and will be around here very soon!), Musta Paraati(Finland), Xmal Deutschland(Germany), longtime fave Spain's ParĂ¡lisis Permanente, Bjork's earlier band, K.U.K.L., and obviously, the almighty Nina Hagen. Tracklist is a s following:

Siekiera - Na Zewnatrz
Clair Obscur - Till Morning Light
Opera de Nuit - Boris Transylvania Camp
Belfegore - Nach in Sodom
KUKL - Dismembered
Laether Nun - Gimme gimme gimme
Leningrad Sanwich - Another Ghost
Oberkampf - Hospital
Asmodi Bizarr - Dreamvision Song
Xmal Deutschland - Mondilitch
Nina Hagen - Antiworld
ParĂ¡lisis Permanente - Tengo Un Pasajero
Gabinete Caligari - Maquis
Marquee Moon - Edge of Time
Musta Paraati - Ajatus
Neva - Vision
Stimmen der Stille - Todeslied
Malaria - Your turn to Run
Norma Loy - Dance of Darkness


Enjoy!

Here are the first two albums from French batcave/glam rock(at least during the 80's!) band Jad Wio. Formed in 1982, themes like sex, sadomasochism, Blade Runner are interwoven in their French and English lyrics. They remain active though I personally prefer their earlier stuff. "Cellar Dreams" got me hooked last week, hope it'll catch a few of you.


Enjoy! :)
