HARI KARI (Canada) demos

It's been a while since I've posted. I've just been too busy. I look at some of the blogs some of my rock friends have up and I'm blown away. How do they have time for all that? Anyway...

The whole idea of this blog is to try and limit what I post to stuff that I haven't seen anywhere else. This newest post is for sure a qualifier.

I dig around a lot when I get in one of these tapes. I try to track down the bands, see what they are up to these days, learn more about them, etc. On this band, I failed big time. I've spent hours trying to find any trace that this band actually ever existed. The shocker is that I have a LOT of info from this tape, and the songs on it. I know the names, stage names and real names of the band members, and I know they were found in St. Catherines, Ontario. I know they formed in 1991, and that members of this band used to be in bands called Sir Wicked and China White. But that's it. I haven't been able to find any info on those bands, nor have I been able to contact any members of this band. This is good stuff though. Not the greatest band I've ever heard or anything -- just good, solid straight forward hard rock. Hopefully you'll enjoy it!!! If any of you have info on this band, please let me know!

    1. Hello, I have heard recommendations to get the "demos" that are on cassette from UnderTheBridgeRecords. I need to know who/what they sound most like before I buy it. Especially when cassettes aren't the best investments these days and many are damaged from years of use or storage. So what bands/albums does this one sound most like? Also any modern sound to it, any grunge? Any alternative? Is it very poppy and radio friendly like a bon jovi or danger danger would be? Or a raw loud metal sunset strip sound of a guns n roses/skid row/spread eagle/la guns/etc? Please be specific so I get an idea who/what Hari Kari sounds like. Thanks.
