Rai Ko Ris - Himalayan Anarcho punk


I love finding out about and hearing new bands from all over , for so long i heard about all types of bands from reading Maximum Rock & Roll , Flipside  or a number of zines  and ordering records or tapes from a distro or one i did a lot of  was tape trading with people from all over  and writing to people from all over was fun . You would send a mix tape to someone and they would send you a mix tape back or like a few tapes ( i wish i still had  ) would to be send them 2 blank tapes and they would send you one back filled with a comp or sometimes their bands recordings ( demo's , live recordings , etc.) . But that day and age is long gone , it's just now simply  look , browse  click and download . I love to collect vinyl to listen to  but i can't afford to buy records very often so i check out different music blogs , bandcamp , etc to find new bands to listen to and even older bands recordings that i use to listen to /have records of , and i have found quite a few  bands i havn't heard in years . well here is one band i never heard of until a couple years ago ( and had no idea there was a punk scene there ) . Rai Ko Ris from Kathmandu , Nepal formed in 2000 and ended in 2014 but Sareena Rai and Olivier Bertin went on to be in Tank Girl .Here is a link to thier home page that will tell you more about the band and what they do and are about  http://raikoris.webs.com/                                                           So i have here for you is                                                                              D.I.Y.    http://www.mediafire.com/folder/h1d1ys9o69k1c/D.I.Y                                                             Demo   http://www.mediafire.com/folder/qlf2998qmaf8m/Demo                                                    Demo 2001  http://www.mediafire.com/folder/2t92v97m5v2fh/Demo_2001                            Guerrilla   http://www.mediafire.com/folder/ukzzftb8ohtdp/Guerrilla                                            Himalayan Frostbite http://www.mediafire.com/folder/zt7bo3hpwtaz8/Himalayan_Frostbite                                                                                                                           Live In Practice Room http://www.mediafire.com/folder/9ge3fkxm528ca/Live_In_Practice_room                                                                                                                    Nepal Ko Hatha Haru - Stories From Nepal http://www.mediafire.com/folder/o3k5ci35st623/Nepal_Ko_Hatha_Haru_-_Stories_From_Nepal                                                                               New Anti National Anthems 2006-2007  http://www.mediafire.com/folder/c7y7pp8otd7cs/New_Anti_National_Anthems_2006_-_2007                                                                                      Rai Ko Ris and Johannes http://www.mediafire.com/folder/uhs0ci7vuavcq/Rai_Ko_Ris_and_Johannes                                                                                                            Stories From Nepal  http://www.mediafire.com/folder/98byv4dg7a2q4/Stories_From_Nepal            Ungovernable Mountains http://www.mediafire.com/folder/k2cxtr1hm0spx/Ungovernable_Mountains                                                                                                                    and Tank Girl's recording Kis With Gun +Choco funhttp://www.mediafire.com/folder/xqi2u4kb12z2b/Tankgirl                                                                                                                                                                                                          I am missing the split with Huasipungo so if anyone has let i would appreciate it .  Tank Girl i guess has a facebook page  https://www.facebook.com/Tank-Girl-130901016939240/              and Rai Ko Ris has one to but not an official one but i think a fan page  https://www.facebook.com/Rai-Ko-Ris-156466774414586/   and Rai Ko Ris do have a bandcap page so go check it out and show them some love https://raikoris.bandcamp.com/

Filth Of Mankind

Came across this band on  http://utsurface.blogspot.com/  and i am glad i did . Thick , dark heavy crust with eerie ( almost haunting ) atmospheric keyboards almost sounds like the soundtrack for a coming of the apocalypse . They only put out 2 recordings Czasa Koncha Wieku in 1999 and The Final Chapter in 2001and that's all they left us

Biography
Filth Of Mankind was formed in early 1996 by: Maciek - vocals, Milosz - guitar, vocals, Pawel - guitar, Stivi - bass and Balon - drums. Some of us played also in a few other bands at that time: Money Drug, Stench Of Death, Noise Grass, Protest And Survive, etc. Forming F.O.M. we wanted to focus on the heavier and darker sound to illustrate the lyrics about subject as old and cliché as still urgent and annoying - such as politicians’ swindles, brutality of their thugs in uniforms, the madness of neverending consumption, poverty of the living as a cog in the capitalist machine or sick moral standards force fed since our birth and leading to lack of tolerance, respect or understanding any forms of diversity. Another important part of our lyrical content are visions of the apocalypse, towards which in our opinion, the humankind unavoidably goes. For such a verbal/musical approach we decided the best fitting name was the title of the Misery song - Filth Of Mankind (one of the other options was The Darkest Hour off the Amebix song - luckily we didn’t choose that, as there’s other band named D.H in the U.S.).
Since that time we played in 10 or 11 countries .                                                                                                                                                                     After they broke up Milosz moved to Boston Massachusetts and in 2005 formed Morne and you can hear that they continued on with that sound .Well anyways i leave for you                                             Czasa Koncha Wieku                                                                                                                  https://mega.nz/#F!0CpxnRQI!ukDxM0P7xterSUz-DVxvHA                                                                                                                                                                                                                               and The Final Chapter (which i enjoy more)                                                                              https://mega.nz/#F!5WgHVZgI!N7zWZt23NmaEW59nlSdNEA
