Bloody Cross...

This stuff is RAW. It's nearly impossible to find, so deal with it.

Considered to be the first black metal band in Chile, Bloody Cross got their start in 1987 as The Morgue. The released one demo "Satan Tomorrow Attack" under than name before changing their moniker to Bloody Cross.

Their early stuff is pretty savage black thrash, but on the Godforsaken...Land full length they adopted sort of a Mayhem meets South American black thrash approach.

The broke up before releasing the second full length Satanas. They did release a promo for it however, which includes re-recordings of some of the stuff on the Satan Tomorrow Attack demo.

I have ripped all the tapes I have from this impossible to find band, and included a rip of Fear and Pain of God that has already made it's way around the blogs...5 in total.

Mace - The Process of Elimination and The Evil in Good

Mace is a sadly overlooked crossover band that was active from the early to late 80's. Their first album, The Process of Elimination, was released in 1985 on Coma records. It was a pretty solid, but very strange, crossover thrash record.

Their second LP, The Evil in Good, released in 1987 on Black Dragon Records marked a shift to a more metal approach being noticeably more rooted in the thrash genre, though still including some punk/crossover elements. This album while being more metal for sure, is also stranger, and slightly more dark.

Their guitar player would latter have a hand in killing metal in the early 90's when he became a record producer and produced some awful grunge records (Pearl Jam being the biggest offender...to his credit he also did records for Alice in Chains and Blind Melon...).

Enough babbling...here's the records:

Morbid Angel - Evil Demos

This bootleg contains 3 rehearsal demos from '86 and '87, plus the Thy Kingdom Come studio demo. The rehearsal stuff is cool, though some of it is pretty raw. Nothing that I personally found to be unlistemable, but others may have a tough time dealing with the raw, live, and unedited quality of some of these tracks.

I grabbed this just to have the Thy Kingdom Come demo/single on CD, since it's terrific stuff. But was surprised to find that there's at least one track on here which didn't make it on to any of the full lengths to my knowledge. Entitled Re-animator's Mutilations, it appears only one one of the rehearsal demos, there's a chance that it's an early version of another song, but I don't seem to recall it sounding very familiar. There's also an unnamed track, and I can't be assed to figure out if it's on an album or not.

Other than that it's got quite a few raw MA favorites on it, and it's got Mike Browning on drums.
