Lene Kosti - I Got The..... ( Do Or Die Cd )

The band Lene Kosti (Lazy Bones) has been formed in 1978, making it the first ever Heavy Metal band in Slovenia. Lene Kosti gained true prominence and cult status with a line-up change in 1985, when the vocalist Milan Krušic joined the band. With his distinct vocals as well as charismatic stage appearance Milan established Lene Kosti at the forefront of the raising Heavy Metal scene in Slovenia as well as an influence for other heavy metal bands in Slovenia. In this period Lene Kosti published their first tape, which became a true collector piece for heavy metal fans in Slovenia. It might seem that everything went well, but being a bunch of leather clad, long haired guys playing LOUD heavy metal with lyrics in ENGLISH didn't go well with the communist regime, ruling with an iron fist and determined to keep away all decadent western influences. Police interrogations, censorship, prohibition of concerts were the order of the day, making it more and more difficult to perform. In 2008, to mark the 30th anniversary of the formation, Lene Kosti regrouped and because of the enthusiasm of old as well as new fans decided to continue where they left of some twenty years before. Since then Lene Kosti played many concerts in Slovenia as well as Austria, the culmination being special guest performers at the concert of Grave Digger in Ljubljana, Slovenia. At this particular concert, Manni Schmidt from Grave Digger joined Lene Kosti on stage to play with them their most popular song Russian Girl. Lene Kosti have self-published a collection of demo tracks recorded in the eighties, on 14th of September 2009! After that, they went in studio to record their first proper CD. The CD includes guest performances of most repsected metal players from Germany! First guest appearance on "Do Or Die" album is bassist Matt Sinner from Primal Fear and Sinner, the other is ex Rage and Grave Digger guitarist Manni Schmidt. Lene kosti self-released their debut album called "Do Or Die", on 5th of March 2010. Album was very well recieved among critics. Even more! It was chosen in prestigeous German metal magazine "Rock Hard" for the demo of the month (August, 2010) A very important gig happened in june 2010 when band played at Banja Luka Rock Open Air festival in Bosnia and Hercegovina, as well as on two festivals in Austria later this year (August 2010). On 30th of October Lene kosti open the show in Slovenia (town Kranj) in front of old school speed metallers Agent Steel from Florida (USA). The main goal for Lene kosti is to sign a contract with proper record label, because a material for new album is already in writting mode!
