26 years after its original release, ROOTâs 1990-debut album âZjevenÃâ will once again be available on CD and wax! Being persecuted and oppressed by the communist Czechoslovakian (Big Boss was once labeled as âThe Satan-Agent from the Westâ by the authorities) government and real difficulties obtaining a proper studio and reasonable recording equipment – the most miserable conditions imaginable really – didnât stop ROOT from making one of the most evil and individualistic black metal creations ever, with rotten riffs stinking of the old and grey Eastern Block – in the most positive sense. It wouldnât be misguided to name them Bathory (or Hellhammer) from behind the Iron Curtain. âZjevenÃâ is a definite must for fans of early primitive black metal; an album portraying the region and era.
