A DECADE IN THE GRAVE (1987 – 1997) is the title of an upcoming book concerning the old underground Thrash / Death / Grind / Black Metal scene in Greece. The title is taken from the legendary album of SADISTIC NOISE, as a tribute to Nick "Flesh" Tagalos (RIP), who was one of the forefathers of extreme music in Greece. The book will include interviews with old bands, biographies, photos, flyers, interviews from old zine editors, a long introduction concerning the birth of extreme Metal in Hellas and more… For more information, questions or whatever you can contact thrashodeath@gmail.com
