In preparation for the next doom-flavoured TDATS, here is The DooM That Time Forgot 10, another of LibertyCap's morbid mixes.

This will be mostly of interest to those who are new to this blog, as almost all of these artists and/or tracks have appeared before on my comps at various times, so look at this as LibertyCap's infernal interpretation of what has come before. Some interesting choices are the famed bands Uriah Heep and Scorpions, who you may not normally associate with doom...

Tracks:
01. Butterfingers - Bootleg '70 (US) 5:39
02. Mahogany Rush - Land of 1000 Nights '75 (CAN) 4:44 (Previously on TDATS 23)
03. Stray - How Could I Forget You? '71 (UK) 5:44 (Stray appeared on TDATS 05)
04. Bullet (aka Daemon aka Hard Stuff) - Jay Time '70 (UK) 2:53 (Seen on TDATS 02)
05. Uriah Heep - Rainbow Demon '72 (UK) 4:27
06. Nahuatl - Evolucion '74 (MEX) 3:29 (previously on TDATS 05 & 89)

08. The Shiver - Hey Mr. Holy Man '69 (SWI) 3:19
09. Leaf Hound - Drowned my Life in Fear '71 (UK) 3:00 (Previoulsy on TDATS 01 & 64)
10. Pax - Firefly '70 (PERU) 4:58 (Previously on TDATS 08 & 43)
11. Speed, Glue & Shinki - Stoned Out of my Mind '71 (JAP) 6:01 (seen on TDATS 04 & 36)
12. Tucky Buzzard - Which Way, When for Why '71 (UK) 8:01 (Previously on TDATS 15)
13. Scorpions - Animal Magnetism '80 (GER) 5:57

Here are all the previous DooM That Time Forgot volumes, along with TDATS 62 & TDATS 95 which I made in a similar spirit to TDTTF:

Vol 1 | Vol 2 | Vol 3 | Vol 4 | Vol 5 | Vol 6 | Vol 7 | Vol 8 | Vol 9 | Vol 10 | Vol 62 | Vol 95

Enjoy! (or maybe that should that say 'Suffer!')

The Day After The Sabbath 36: Rising Sun [Japan pt.1]

Download here: [mf] or [mg]

pass:  tdats

Volume 36 of TDATS features Japanese bands. A small but talented hard rock scene emerged from the country's prevailing 60s psychedelic 'Group Sounds' musical collective, much as it did around the world at the time. The bands all have a pleasingly oriental twist in their sound. Starting with 'Japan's answer to Jimi Hendrix', is Shinki Chen's Speed, Glue & Shinki. The band was started by guitarist Shinki Chen, and Ikuzo Orita, Japan's president of Polydor Records. Next up, Gedo was a mainly live band that has a few live recordings, and played sounds alternating between hard rock and vigorous proto-punk.

Too Much's name came from the TOO MUCH concert that The Helpful Soul played with the newly-formed Blues Creation, in Kyoto at the end of February 1970. The hippy phrase ‘too much’ was already utterly clichéd in the West by this time, but it was iconic and easily pronounceable to the Japanese! Yonin Bayashi's debut album "Isshoku-Sokuhatsu" displayed amazing progressive musical ability, especially as they were all around 20 years of age at the time! Ginbae was originally released as a private pressing on the Sea Side Label, rare as hen's teeth, to the point that it's not known what the track names are any more. Aside from the slightly lacking sound quality, they play some excellent churning metal.

Little is known about Jun Kamikubo and his single album, but he sure recorded some warm stoner rock jams, as shown here with 'Getting Into The Ecstasy'. Blues Creation and Flower Travellin' Band shouldn't need too much introduction here, along with Shinki Chen they are one of Japan's most famous 70's hard rock acts, with a doomy sound. Datatenryu play some excellent spikey noise/prog with great aggressive vocals. Nokemono and Bow Wow (later 'Vow Wow') end the collection as examples of two of the only Japanese bands that were taking metal into the NWOBHM-influenced latter half of the 70s and beyond.

*EDIT: I have found the Ginbae track names at long last :)
