ON THE OBSCURE SIDE: SATAN / SHARK / WOLF … FRENCH METAL

In 1993 when all the posers (read mainstream monkeys) called Heavy Metal dead, the small label NGB Records released a compilation with French metal bands called ”Avang’Hard". Not with the classic 1980’s ones like Sortilege, ADX, Vulcain or Killers, but with mainly new bands. Every band recorded 3 songs for the compilation, but like almost every compilation, about 75% is garbage, but a lot of times you can find nuggets. And on this one you find two bands that are really good (Shark, Wolf) and one that is great (Satan). I have merge each bands 3 tracks in one file down below, so take a listen and discover.

SATAN
1. Rapid Fire
2. Man or Woman
3. Heroes of the Darklight

SHARK 
1. Welcome in the Arena
2. X Rated
3. Crime of the Night

WOLF
1. Break the Window
2 Ghost of Man
3. Fille de la Nuit
