Decent band but not really 'unknown' or 'demo only'.

The KRAKEN-Demo 82,BLACK AXE-Demo 81 and DEMON PACT-Demo 82 are the best i can think right now.

Not really unknown, but the Troyen demo is not bad at all,I especially like the last 2 songs.

Did any of these demos get uploaded? I'm just itching to hear some - especially if there's some un released Tyrant stuff floating around. Man, those guys were great!

Has anyone ever heard the 1980 demo by Requiem listed on Metal Archives? I love the 7" but can;t find anyone with this or even that has heard it...

SHANGHAI - post-Destroya, unexpectedly impressive. 6 tracks, rather very listenable !
I know Boris isn't here anymore. But perhaps some of the "survivors" know this...
Isn't it instead Shanghai Tiger with a rehearsal demo of 1983 ?

Damn that's the stuff I like finding about! Fortunately some part has been covered by labels like HR, but still will love to know more about the others! (Still waiting for a Paralex comp. to happen haha)

I really like that one as well, particularly the song 'Black Stallion'.
An official remastered Ztormtrooper/Ztorm anthology would make a nice addition to my collection.

Hu?! Wait, is this the same ZTORM featured on The Quest Tapes? If so I'm thoroughly intrigued :shock:

Yes & no. Ztormtrooper were a precursor to the Ztorm featured on 'The Quest Tapes'.
Not sure exactly what the line-up differences were between the two, but they were closely related apparently.
Check yr pm's. :wink:

Hello Bigfootkit.

Was the soundclick page with Nexus with songs of the NWOBHM period ?
The link there vanished in the meantime.
If yes - did you stream it ?
