DRACULA "(The Sonata For Satan) Sang De Boeuf" [12" LP, Brown Magma Red/Yellow/Green Vinyl]
2024 - Thrash from Russia
Detailed Description
Dracula is one of those Evil thrash metal bands from Russia that only existed as tape dubs in the 90's and later uploaded to Youtube where it would've resided forever if it weren't for the heroic work of Metal Race Records and NWN in putting this obscure gem on physical media. Musically Dracula shares a lot of similarities with other forgotten cults like Abadonna, SS-20, and P.O.S.T., probably because they were all listing to the same 10 tape dubs that made it across the iron curtain in the late 80's from East Germany. There's an obvious nod to the old German thrash trifecta of Destruction, Sodom, and Kreator, but recorded with very thin production value using soviet era equipment. As usual, we tried our best to keep the layout aesthetic appropriate to the era and purposely kept the jacket sparse and raw like their music.
