so, who in here can tell me about belfegore?

As I understand it, Elektra never saw fit to release their one and only LP on disc due to some sort've legal tussle between the three members. I do have a nice CDR of it, though.

The video for "All That I Wanted" is quite possibly the best video of all time.

Noooo, the first link is definitely not the Belfegore I heard! I know -- I visited that site and thought, "Hmm, well, this certainly isn't the synth/goth/hard rock band I heard on the mp3s I dled." Good to know a Spanish-language heavy metal band is going all the way to the Czech Republic, though.

The second link though -- BINGO! Thanks for directing me to that page! That's the first bit of English-language 'net stuff that I've found on them!

Alex in NYC:

OMG, you like them too? That's truly amazing! Heh, the reason I know about this site is because of a post you made about Peter Schilling's "Major Tom" that I managed to pull up on another net search I made! Anyway, I did dl approx. 10 songs from them on a file sharing program and I've adored all ten of those songs, especially -- geez, forgot the title of my favorite one thus far, but I've also liked "Love" and the aforementioned "All That I Wanted" quite a bit too.

Thank you for that little bit of background info re: the availability of their music. Such a shame no CD will be available. I guess I'll just have to actually buckle down and fix my computer so I can burn music CDs again. (I just have to run a couple of programs, but I need to get the programs first before I run them.) I hope one day the whole issue will be resolved, though. There's nothing like a store-bought CD, especially if it comes with a really good CD booklet (I could stare at the pictures enclosed with U2's "All You Can't Leave Behind" and read the lyrics enclosed with Howard Jones' "Dream Into Action" all day long.)

Lee G:

That's the video I saw on VH1 Classic!! I think the chyron for that even included the name of the director -- some sort of Balkans-area name, very hard to remember, but he really did a good job with the video. Then again, a video won't do it for me if it doesn't come accompanied with a good song, and this one is a good song.

I knew you guys would be big helpers!

p.s.: Yes, I'm typing on a nice, newer keyboard now. No more slamming on keys. *smile*

As for Belfegore, I am *dieing* to get my hands on some mp3's or a cd of this album. If anyone wants to hook a brotha up, I would be most appreciative and can handle trades or other arrangements.

Almost bought the album shortly afterwards but I spent my meagre allowance on a Short Romans album instead - supposedly the German answer to the Chameleons at that time. Hey ho...

*laughs* Or, at least I think it was. And look at me now. I've devolved back into being a mere little fangirl, raving on and on about stuff, instead of continuing to inquire about other musical artists I'm not as passionate about but still love in terms of their music.

I think things will change sometime in the foreseeable future, though. I will return to listening to a variety of musical artists, still being a huge fanatic-type person of a few of them, but still loving everything.

*wonders how to approach one of the people on this thread in a highly apologetic manner*

It's minus the first 20-25 seconds, and the picture's too small to fully induce nausea like you'd hope it would, but so what? Still the craziest video ever, 20+ years after I last saw it. (And kinda creepy too, seeing all those New Yorkers running for their lives, cameraman included, with the WTC towers looming in the background.)

"Wow, and here I was thinking I was the only fan of the `fegore!"

totally stealing this from alex. "yo, you down with the 'fegore?"

Seabird Seamoan!! Little Chinese Caves!!

Also I just learned from Wiki the other day that they had a direct connection to the Neue Deustsche Welle (guys who used to be in the KFC and Die Krupps, both on Cachalot's classic 1982 Deutschland compilation), and the KFC guy was apparently in cool German new wave band Nichts in between. So now you know!
