VA: Brave Boys Keep Their Promises K7 (1993, Beton Tapes)



Excellent compilation from the early 90s German underground scene with the exception of one US band (Missed In Diary)... and I was never 100% sure if The Convent were Dutch or German (or originally from the Netherlands - but living in Germany). Mix of guitar wave, goth, dark wave and a few darker indie/alternative/psychedelic bands. Couple of these bands have been posted on here before (Dusk To Dawn, Disorder, Screaming Fools)....

Preview samples:

  3. new wave crossover: Really someone was looking for this one? Figured very few knew of its existence. I've only seen it up for sale twice.

    mr.peksujeff:

    I'll have to check it out... seems there are a lot of small tapes labels active, especially in the US releasing experimental bedroom music.
