This was the Metal-imprint of label/distributor Il Discotto Productions, situated in the Milano-area and mostly (in)famous for unleashing craploads of so-called "italo-disco" onto the world in the early/mid-80's. It's meager discography was cut short when the mother label folded in 1986.
All releases are fairly rare and some of them (HOCCULTA, BRIGHTLIGHTS..) are actually pretty good.

DM 005 | Brightlights | Higer'n'Higher | MLP | 1985 | Another win for Italy and their great craftmanship in the field of EuroMetal! The catchy speeder "Higher", the riff-cake "Burnin' Flower", the heartwrenching chorus of "Days Of Glory"and even the semi-ballad closer all vibrate with the same dark forces as those of their counrymen Unreal Terror, Revenge and Rex Inferi.

DM 007 | Fil Di Ferro | Hurricanes | LP | 1986 | Side A reminds me of my Swedish pet-peeves Bullet, i.e. 80's AC/DC without the good parts. They improve some on side B with more uptemo, NWOBHM'y parts but not enough to make them reach the very high Italian average. |
