FERTILE SOIL COMPILATION VOL. 5 / 2024

Also streaming (original audio quality, lyrics & additional bands info) and available for free download here: loudragemusic.bandcamp.com/album/fertile-soil-vol-…


Again we have the honor to showcase some of the tracks released in the first quarter of 2024 (January - March) by Romanian bands, with their direct permission and input.

The aim is to display a living (and hopefully more and more thriving and diverse) Romanian underground Rock and Metal scene that is mostly unknown, to gather and promote local talent, and in this sense we'll release this compilation four times a year, after every quarter (we have increased the pace from once a year to four times a year).

The tracks are in a (hopefully) easier to play and enjoy order, going from the softer areas of Rock and Metal to darker and rawer sonorities.

Thanks a lot to Calin "IMColin" Iordache from STIFF KICKS who helped with some technical aspects on the volume side making the compilation easier to play. If you want to play the tracks with their original sound please head over to our Bandcamp page for free streaming and download.

Thanks a lot to the bands for their participation, and thanks a lot to you for your attention and support!

Enjoy the music, there's something for everyone here, and as always!

** SHARING IS CARING / SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL SCENE **
