Has Zen Venom's "From another planet" seen official release on CD lately? I'm in contact with an Australian dealer who claims to have several such CDs and I really don't want to shell out money for some half-assed bootleg.

Bootleg or not I'm ordering it for the bonus tracks. I love their EP to death although I know that many hate it.

I've never heard this band before.
I'll have to give the EP a listen.

It should be the greek split bootleg CD with Matakopas and Solar Egale: probably the "bonus tracks" should be those 2 Ep's, beware!

Love it to death also. One of my favourite MLP's. Unfortunately had to spent a fortune on it but worth every penny. If this is legit I'll buy it for sure.

The seller calls himself LeMusic on GEMM. Make a search for "Zen venom" and it'll turn up.

I hated this band, but I got used to the vocals and now I enjoy the tracks...

The final track is really the only good one, and it's pretty 'common' at that, there's nothing there that could justify me spending over 50e...

I finally got around to listening to the EP and this is decent stuff. Obviously nothing mind blowing and a little primitive for 1988 but it's a fun listen. I also don't understand the complaints about the vocals. If you can sit through a Cirith Ungol album this really isn't much different on oddness factor and I find that the vocals actually add a charm to the album that sets it apart.

I received the CD today, it looks like and 99.9% must be an official rerelease. It includes the EP and 4 bonus tracks (In what you take, Demon Slayer, Fire all your shots, Lost travellers), lyrics, photos and the original artwork has been kept intact.
Tom, many thanks for your help!

How much did it set you back for a copy?

Good to see and all but WHY doesn't the cd have the original artwork!!!
The music is different but enjoyable enough for me.
