NEW LP
FOAD Records
Emerging from the ever influential and colorful Yugo 80s underground, DEVASTATION were one of the first Thrash Metal bands from Yugoslavia (among Evil Blood, Witchcraft, Heller, Bloodbath, Bombarder and few more). Their style was a scorching Speed/Thrash aggression, think of early Voivod and Onslaught with HC/Punk influences (as a matter of fact they covered bands like Discharge and S.O.D.). The band recorded two demo tapes before the end of the eighties and appeared on some Balkanian and European fanzines getting an excellent feedback. Later on they changed their name to Devastator, and finally in the nineties into Hatrss. With this new name they recorded some studio works that were released as a cassette in 1993. This release highlights their best demo, The possibility of lifes destruction (1989) here appearing for the first time on vinyl, remastered from the original reels for the best possible sonic impact and to make it more complete and interesting we also added a CD including Devastations 1st demo The upcoming mayhem (1987) and the two Hatrss demos.
With this new release done in friendly collaboration with ultimate Croatian underground diggers team/label Guranje S Litice and original band members, all the studio material by both bands are being combined on one release for the first time. And theres more after few years of research we managed to track down the original 80s illustrator of several Metal and HC bands from Yugoslavia Amir O. from Croatia who provided a special unreleased artwork made the same year the demo was recorded 1989! Most grindcore and underground freaks will remember his epic artworks for the early vinyl releases by Buka and Patareni, from the same era. Finally unleashed this killing Thrash Metal gem is a must for all past and future headbanging collectors! Includes a 12 page booklet with extensive liner notes, photos, zine excerpts and a lot more!!
