Singer Vinger estonian hard rock/heavy metal madness

i just picket up jää jumalaga puberteet! lp 1990 on melodija in a trade just because theyre estonian and i thought oh well GGG was great shit so why not. Fuck this is the best surprise record i got in a while.... hint of folksy avantgarde ultra cool raw melodic horror hard rock....i dunno how to describe it, i think that one rules so much. if you like obscure stuff like oblachnyj kraj or drakar you gotta check this out i guess! no weak tracks whatsoever (unlike GGG polemine!)
how's the rest of their disko?

I thought they were playing simple punk rock...I'll give a listen to their albums, it's not difficult to find them in mp3.

I know there is a 2xCD + DVD anthology called "Eesti kullafond" (the same as G.G.G.) with their first 2 albums (this one and the previous, S/T from 1988) and other recordings included. It looks interesting!

The first song is pretty powerful, then some others are lame or not so interesting. Other 2 or 3 are really good though there's an excess of keyboards here and there. Not 100% metal but nice hard rock mixed with (horror) punk and glam, at the end. Not bad at all.

Singer Vinger vocalist is Hardi Volmer.
Yes, they are very cool band (but deathinately NOT horror rock, lyrics nor image do not deal with horror). I saw them live first time in 1987, last time August 2011.

Also Vanemõde was mentioned here. Another great band. I really hope that one day there will be CD available with their songs from period 1986-90.

J.M.K.E. is legendary punk band and their debut LP/CD is essential.

Some other recommendations for hard-rock or aggressive punk-rock fans :
Velikije Luki - (aggressive punk, one of my faves. Their songs were re-recorded in studio in past 10 yrs or so but I prefer old dirty ones!).

Varaan - heavy rock. (the pictures on Youtube link are not of Varaan!)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nre2zDHp77k

Seitsmes Meel - hard rock with good singer.

Kulo - punk rock.

Vennaskond - again melancholic punk rock. Good one! Plenty of good tracks in 20+ years career.

Vanemõde members had also band Metallist, Generaator M and Babach.

I agree! Röövel Ööbik have made excellent music too.

I think Röövel Ööbik made also session with John Peel.
