I can't find any trace of them releasing an album or single, but I did find out they appear on a comp-LP from 1991 called "Рок против террора" (Rok Protiv Terrora)

What a pity..i'm sure there must exist other recordings as well!
Maybe a metalhead from Georgia following this post could help us out.

In any case can we get the youtube track in better quality somehow??

Does anybody have some information about these bands from Georgia/Armenia/Azerbaijian?

They were all active between late 80's and early 90's....some of them were mentioned by Lado Burduli, the singer with georgian punk band Retsepti:

Georgia:
-Bedlami
-Dragon
-Gremy
-Komendantis Saati (they made some recordings at Studio C in 1985 or 1986 before turning punk. Later changed name in Retsepti and played punk/goth/dark)
-Mdzime Jvari/Heavy Cross
-Moritur (they recorded a Demo in 1989)
-Sphinx

Armenia:
-Messiah (there are some live tracks recorded at EgRU Festival, Erevan in 1991)
-Soma: I know there's a video tape recorded at Dzherzhinsky Machine Factory, Erevan on 26-01-1992
-Tessilck
-Vostan Hayots: They have a tape called Prosnis' syin recorded in 1991


Azerbaijan:

-Aerokobra
-Bez Grima
-Chenryij Gorod/Black City
-Iuhu: I have some tapes recorded in 1992 but there is a collection tape with songs recorded between 1990 and 1993
-Komentantskij Chas (I don't think they're the same "Komendantis Saati" from Georgia: this name was quite usual at the time)
-Running Wild (....)
-Shok
-Talisman
-Tyazhelyij Sluchay


I want to write some essay but I can't find lot of information nor - of course - recordings. I know a lot of recordings made in Georgia in the late 80's went destroyed or disappeared during the following war years

If you mean YUHU, they moved to Turkey in early 1990'es and have a 2-3 tapes and 1 cd released. I can check around if I can find the cd left in some stores. Send me PM if you are interested. Now the drummer is a tattoo artist and the guitarist is composing music for some pop stars here.

Someone tell me more about this band: Понтий Пилат (Pontius Pilate). Their albums from 1988 and 1990 weren't released on vinyl, right??

tape only
but recentely their first album has been remastered and re released on a pro CD-r (available through the guys at the Metalrus website...but I think it's already out of print)

There is also a split CD with Voj but I am quite sure it's another CD-r thing

All their albums seem to be re-released on CDr only and they're quite hard to find

I have no idea if it's a reel to reel or handmade copy or magnitoalbum. For sure not CD or Vynil.....

Dunno if FRONT are mentioned, probably they are, but anyways...

Only heard "Mortal Surgery", I think that's a fine rekkid.

PONTIUS PILATE -S/T was released on cd in 1994 by Apex records. I was able to pick a copy from GEMM 5-6 years ago for cheap. It is a regular silverpressed cd. I havent seen another copy since and assume it should be considered quite rare by now.
