Who in the world would have thought that Croatia held this kind of bands? From that country this is actually the first band I ever hear and this was one hell of an experience to say the least. Bolseno Grinje is one of those bands that attack your guts with a powerful strike that you barely can see. This is Grindcore in its original roots; Punk forwarded Grind that goes by fast as hell and energetic as a drilling machine.

"Nitko Nas Ne Vidi?Ali Mi Ipak Postojimo!" (Something similar to "Nobody Sees Us?But We Exist") is an album for Grinders only, regular metal heads won't understand this album and its importance; yes, it is not the most original Grindcore album ever released, achieving that tag is hard enough with bands like Cephalic Carnage and Circle Of Dead Children on the run, but this album is a great way to remember the old days, when this genre was only about being destructive and utterly fast more than releasing pretentiously adorned Grind with complexity and intricacy jammed in it.

Still, Bolesno Grinje manages to plant their seeds in the new era of stylish Grindcore; they added an acoustic song, a lot of irregular beats and catchy riffs that create a settling vibe inside the chaotic music, not to mention the length of the tracks that goes from 2 to 4 minutes (contrasting with old-school Grind which had "4 seconds" songs). Lyrically they kept the old style as well, they talk about social critics, ethical wrongs and such things that bands like Napalm Death and Brutal Truth used to carry.

In the end, this is a very good release, I state again that "Nitko Nas Ne Vidi?Ali Mi Ipak Postojimo!" is for Grindcore fans only, but that's more than okay with me, I don't want purists or posers to convert this band into crap just like they did with Pig Destroyer or Regurgitate.

Best Tracks: "Nesavrsen Svuet (Jebiga)", "Supernova Budala", "Produkt Progresa"
