Baltimore Rocks -- Blast From The Past

Yeah, I hope one day I can listen to all the samples in this thread to see who the good ones actually were, but no doubt a lot of them looked very cool, if nothing else. I also find it crazy that there were this many unsigned bands from the one area who, like I say, if nothing else at least looked the part.

I've listened and some good some bad some indifferent but hey they were doing it so props for that.

 

And Dave always mentions how that Baltimore/NY/DC scene was ridiculously happening.

 

That said and maybe it was just the era but those scenes were all over. No one talks about but me but Seattle/Tacoma had a monster glam/hard rock/metal scene back then, with just as many still unknown bands. I guess it just depends where you were.

 

And as always nice posts, please continue. Of not that singer for Wizekrak is the closest thing to Brett Michael in mannerisms not vocally I've ever seen.

Hmmm..... just found this compilation of the above band WIRED.

 

Seems to be a whole collection of their demos from 1989 - ?. And it's free!!

 

You chose BUY and enter 0 in the amount box.... it will give you the download link.

I have some stuff from the bands already mentioned, like the 7"single from Dagger (need the demo), etc. There were some great heavy/power/power/prog/doom bands there from which I have a ton of stuff.

 

Still looking for original demotapes from Manifest ( with Bobby Hicks, one of my all time favorite singers-RIP), Assailant, En force (great stuff, hardly you can go wrong when you took your name from 'ryche's best song ever).

Wow....this is an amazing topic/thread!!! As I've been collecting demos of unsigned bands for over 25 years this is an amazing list of ones that I need to look into. I have a few of the ones featured in this thread....but, damn....there are a TON I don't have or have ever heard of!!! Thank you so much for posting these!! And, if you happen to own any of these.....I would always entertain paying for them.

All I have nowadays is the stuff uploaded from cassettes to the computer. A lot of my stuff has been borrowed and never returned over the years. So I am glad a uploaded the ones I did.

Great compilation on vinyl + great tracks. Of course Mystic Force + Mona Lisa+Snydly Crunch steal the show. Still waiting for VOL.2. Now somebody please trade/sell me the Manifest - Yes or No (tape). :tumbsup:
