Bulgaria (Part 2)

About the attitude here,one thing is for sure-there is no star attitude,definitely.Folks are down to earth normal guys just like anybody else:)
About fighting for a change, unfortunately not many people are. Bands here are not involved in politics and activism, excluding 1 or 2, with not that much success. But yes, it is more than music, I know its kind of a platitude, but hc here still means friendship.

We have 3 distros,the guys are great dudes, who provide us with quality music:
Straight From The Inside (they also run a webzine)

Ugly And Proud Records
