When things get settled for myself, hopefully a Unison release will appear via Rimbaud records later next year.With out a doubt one of the most amazing bands i`ve heard.

Unison - Ozmot cd ep (3 euro)
"This is mean. Fast became faster, nervous turned into psychedelic and Unison once more confirmed that they are one of the best local bands ever! In this release there is a novelty with the lyrics – the first Unison song in Serbian. Realized at the start of 2005."
Artic /Smithereens / Hieronymus / Iron Men / The Martyrs, The Profits / The Fix / Komorijenti

Unison - Apokalipsa cd ep (3 euro)
You need to hear it all at once. Fast, nervous with thrash resemblances and ‘apocalyptic’ lyrics. 6 Unison videos are also on the CD.

Unison - Death in the Cradle + Live in Freiburg cd - (4 euro)

Lets Grow - Neverending Story cd ep - (3 euro)
"Rad fast youth crew from Serbia...reminds me of FEEDING THE FIRE or POINT OF FEW..both with the speed and the challenging lyrics. They are just one of many new fast DIY hardcore bands coming from the Croatia/Serbia area.....get it now or whine when all your friends are talking about how Yugo-core is the shiznit."
- 7" version of this ep released by 625 Thrash.
Hardcore Song / Mankind's Sons / My Dissatisfaction Is Source Of Their Happiness / Mass Question / Unfeelingness / Five Minutes Of Relax / Neverending Story

Eventually this lot are available here on this side of Europe, hopefully this might(in whatever small way) open up the doors on whats currently going on in the Serbian hardcore scene.The country is isolated enough as it is, no need whatsoever for the music to be....
