I wrote I'd do some compilations too so I guess it's about time I post one. I thought I'd start with this compilation tape from 1998 released by Ancient Lakes Productions of Belarus, containing almost 90 minutes of death, doom, black and folky metal from the former Treaty of Friendship, Cooperation and Mutual Assistance-countries. Mostly good sound and content ranges from the quite well-known and excellent to the never-heard and less than interesting. Overall it leaves a positive feeling and in many cases an urge to hear more. Speaking of which, I want more Maze Of Cako Torments so leave me a note if you have their demos. The compilation was ripped from my original copy which I got from who knows where, so it is a decent rip and scans of the covers are enclosed.

The funny thing is that I was thinking I could upload this 2 days ago, but totally forgot about it. Thanks btw, great compilation comrade!

Also, I forgot to mention I have a ripped Maze Of Cako Torments's demo, but I can't remember which one. I'll and find it and upload it. Very interesting project I must say, never really took the time to look for some of their demos..

@Xexanoth: Thanks for the comments, comrade Xex! If you can find the M.o.C.T. demo, great! It's not a number one priority but something I'm curious to listen to. Should have gotten those tapes back in the day...

No problem brother! Very well then, I hope thats the one Ive got because I remember it being really rare. Very well Velkaarn, Hails to you!

And one more thing, Id like to ask you if you have ever heard of an unreleased demo of Depressive Silence? I met this guy a few days and he told me he is looking for it, but it appears to be some kind of bootleg? He said it contains some re-recorded tracks of the first demo split with Mightiest and Lost In My Dreams by D.S.

@Xexanoth: Hmm I thought I replied to this but seems it was lost in cyberspace. Anyways, no I've not heard of that - it's quite likely to be just a bootleg compilation. But I'm interested to know if you find out anything about it!

Hailz to Xexanoth and Velkaarn
I have been longing for MOCT since when you gave the word to uncover the gem. Please make our dreams come true comrades!

@Vomit of the Earth:

I too wish Xexanoth would have found and ripped the demo but he's not been around much nor active with his blog so I would not hold my breath waiting for him.

Are you able to reupload this one, please. The link is broken.

This has been strangely requested so I've reuploaded the tape. In case anyone still needs it.
