[Paragos - Vrata (80's Serbian gothic rock) (1984 AUDIO)] • (1984)
Comment:
" Vrata -Very rare 80's Serbian gothic / dark synth band. I don't have much information except they've worked somewhere from 1982 - 1984. Only 3 songs survived.
Ireland " Ambition In Glass " (1981/1984), Demo tape, 12" & radio session .
From the Navan Road in Dublin, Ambition In Glass were Martin Creighton (Vocals), Paul Lacey (Guitar), Dave Drum (Bass) & drum machine Roland TR-606. They were active from 1981-1984.
The band name is derived from both the sale of living squirrel monkeys via ads ("Darling Pet Monkey") and the combination of Sophia Cacciola (drums, vocals) and Michael J. Epstein (bass, vocals) of The Prisoner-themed act, Do Not Forsake Me Oh My Darling, and Catherine Capozzi (guitars) of Axemunkee. // Sea-Monkeys, X-Ray Specs, and a necklace full of soil from Dracula's castle are among the many bizarre items that were sold in comic-book ads of yore. Garage/surf rock supergroup Darling Pet Munkee aims to tell the tales of these lost items in song.
