A German Communist who fled Germany to the soviet union in 1933, then later we left to Spain to fight in the International Brigades against fascism. His songs were played on Radio Barcelona and Radio Madrid during the Spanish Civil War.

Vladimir Vysotsky - Self Portrait

This record is very different than all of other stuff I have on this blog. Vladimir Vysotsky has been dubbed the Bard of the Russian people in the soviet era, although he was not super pro-soviet himself. Vysotsky often sings of decadence, loneliness, society, and other things from translations I have read of some songs lyrics, although I do not speak Russian myself and can not say first-hand. Vladimir's emotion and honesty bleed through the music of raw feeling. This acoustic album is a live recording, but is some of my favorite recordings. This album is very good. If any of my readers have anything more by this artist please leave me a comment or something like that.

Strangers In Life, Brothers In Death... (Compilation)

Military Marches

This is a Compilation I made of military march songs and folk songs sung in the military by participating soldiers of a couple different eras and subjects. These subjects include the Spanish Civil War (Songs from both the republic and the francoists are included), the Romanian Iron Guard, aswell as military march songs from modern communist China and North Korea. I tried to keep them relatively sorted out by subject. This is my first Compilation, I hope you all enjoy it.

Rome - Flowers From Exile

Dark folk, Martial Industrial?

This album is absolutely phenomenal. One of the best albums of 2009. Although I would prefer to not post an album so near its release, I also feel this is so great that people should definitely hear this.

"Flowers From Exile is supposedly based upon the events of the Spanish Civil War, a conflict in which Retuer's family partook. The various samples used throughout the album, as well as its exotic arrangements, intimate an atmosphere of conflict and resignation, but specifics never quite materialize the way they would in folk music or songs of political protest. More plainly, Flowers tackles the familiar topics of isolation, desperation, and displacement whether it be political, familial, or religious in scope." - Lucas Schleicher

This album is highly recommended.

Skyforger - Zobena Dziesma

Pagan Folk

While this band is normally known for their Pagan folk/metal works, this album is a purely folk album, which I actually think is their best.
