The music on this blog is out of print (at least that I know) so that none of the bands/labels would be damaged/ripped-off by sharing their music. If for some reason you don't want your stuff to be here just send me a message and I will remove it. I encourage all other to buy the stuff from the bands you like and support the people that keep underground scene alive and kickin'. There's much effort put in these releases, from making the music to artwork and releasing it and it would be a shame to end up just as another lame mp3 folder.
Here I am at last. Summer lazyness is still in effect even though it's not so hot anymore. I finally made myself posting again. Sorry to those of you who waited for your comments to be published, but I forgot that I've enabled comment moderation due to heavy spamming from one fucking annoying blogger. I usually don't like this comment moderation stuff, but I was really starting to get pissed off and I don't want the fucker here anymore. OK. Now... This time it's split of Japcore and UK punk legends. Each band delivers two songs and they rip all the way. Assfort are tight as usual and I guess that this is my favourite Chaos U.K. record and even though it's only two songs they are true dirty Röckin Nöiz just the way I like it. I guess that this EP is out of print and I just cannot find Vinyl Japan website. Also you can get Chaos U.K. songs on "Kings For A Day - The Vinyl Japan Years" on Anagram. The sound level on this rip is quite off the scale because I cannot adjust volume on my USB phono pre-amp thingy (which sucks). But this is supposed to be cranked up all the fukken way up. If you don't already have this you mustn't miss it! Now go!

This picture LP will be something like the end of live trilogy of posts. Actually, only Brigade O.D. side and Pizda Materna's last song are live recordings. Anyway, Brigade O.D. are from Skopje, Macedonia and they play really great raw metallic crust with gruff vocals. Let's say something in Hiatus vein which equals excellent, right? All of you who don't like live recordings don't be put off by that fact because this was recorded in MKNŽ club in Ilirska Bistrica, Slovenia and there was always great sound there and a lot of bands released their live stuff from their shows in there. Doom's "Pissed, Robbed And Twatted" 7" and Schwartzeneggar's "Live In Slovenia" 7" come to mind. Pizda Materna are from Slovenia and they play somewhat slower and psyched crusty punk. Here they offer three studio tracks and the last one is live (also from MKNŽ club) called Karaoke Punk and basically it's Exploited's "Sex & Violence" sung by some croatian punk as "Šeks and Valentić" (croatian politicians). You can find more about Pizda Materna's music output in their last post, and I don't know much about Brigade O.D.'s releases except the track on Preko Zidova Nacionalizama I Rata comp. 7" and Smash The Army Before They Smash You! tape. I remember meeting singer Darko with his wife and kids on Monte Paradiso festival in Pula just before he went to London and I believe that was the end of the band. I hope I'm wrong. This was co-op release of 4 Italian and one of Croatian, French, Slovenian and Japanese labels. I think this was released in 1999, but it could be 2000 too. I'm not sure. There's also Brigade O.D./Pizda Materna split 7" that I've never seen with different songs than on LP released on Calavera from France.
I can't believe that this is my first Doom post as I guess that they'd be my first post if all this this blogging thing existed some 15 years ago during my Doom craze (I guess that there are a lot more people reading this that caught the same). Anyway, after posting live LP yestarday I remembered one live record that I used to listen quite a lot. This is recording from their gig in "Antiknock" in Tokyo that happened on 29/4/1992. First pressing had black and blue cover and second had black and white ones. The record that starts off with Black Sabbath song gets my attention alright. Now I'll go and listen to it again and so should you.

Since I'll be watching gigs on the coast really soon, I thought that live LP post should fit just fine. I'm not such a big fan of live records, but this one is really good. Summer lazyness has really kicked in, so this post is it's product. I've split the records in five pieces - one per band because I coldn't be arsed to split them into tracks and haven't even tried to write anything, so I just OCRd text by Jan of Your Own Jailer Records who made this record (and the gig). Here it goes: It was a very hot summerday the 15th of June 1986 when the people dressed in black came strolling across the fields towards my home, which also were the place for the gig, the Eggeby Farm. Some were extremely warm in their crust attributes; leather jackets, leather pants and boots. And so the general mood was more apathetic than usual, it was so fucking hot. There wasn't particularly many people seen in this position which were rather unexpected since that was still usual back in those days. Everyone knew that it was a drugfree gig, since we had written that on the postes, so many people thought it was no idea going to the show if they couldn't drink. Not even the free admission could make people think about the music instead of the booze. I had been given a large sum of money, measured in punk standards, 5000 SEK for the sound system and 5000 SEK for bandcosts. The whole thing was recorded on two channels through the mixing console on ordinary cassettes. Some of the songs were brand new so I had to write the bands to get all the correct songtitles. One year later it was released as a 98 minute comp. tape, made in about 250 copys. I still think that the recording has great value because of it's exeptionally good sound qality. Also, some of the songs haven't even been released on vinyl or CD, so I thought that I'd release the shit on a record before the tapes got to demagnetized. With the aid of a good equalizer, compressor and a good two-channel tape recorder I sat down to edit and master the shit. Through the good tape-compression that is available on analogue taperecorders the sound of some songs went out real good. I edited the whole concert which I now have on 1/4" analogue tapes. I have been cutting very much in the recording to get rid of as much "audience talk" as possible. I've thought this way, how fucking interesting is loads of Swedish talk about the beautiful weather, the drummers ass-sweat and Fredda Holmgren to Mr Kawakami in Japan or Bruno in Belgium? (Ok, some guys in Australia or Dan in Minneapolis might enjoy some Swedish shouts from the audience or talk between the songs, for use in some recording or just to learn some new words for a lyric or something.) I've thought that it is the music that is interesting. Sadly some of the "live feling" got lost after all the cuts (KRUNCH made it themselves by the way, they did not have any pauses between the songs). However, I've tried to put in as much music as possible without affecting the sound quality. Jan "Jutte" Jutila

First of all I have to say that this is not my rip and I've put it here because someone said that it is no longer available on Hardcore Braindeath blog (true, and it looks that all the posts from it are unavailable) where I've found it and linked in my last Internal Autonomy post. Since there's not much info on the band on the web and someone asked for this album two weeks ago I've decided to put it here. It'd be a shame for this to be lost for new listeners since peace punk can be so unoriginal and boring and this is not either one. You can find tiny bit more info on the band in the last post and now go get this. Thanks to Mike of All Go No Slow! for sending the picture of the LP cover.

This crackling record is done by Scottish post punk outfit that I don't know much about except few facts that I've managed to google out and that is that their released output beside this 7" is one split tape with dutch band Revenge Of The Carrots and an LP "Three Small One Tall" on Flat Earth Recs. They mention The Ex and Dog Faced Hermans in thanks list so you might assume what their music could sound like. I don't know about you, but I like this a lot. If anybody knows more about this band, please leave a comment.

Another one from my friends' bag (see last post) and this time it's boozer Shangri-la. First of all, you have to know that we've drank literally gallons of various types of booze over the years that we know each other and when I saw this in a record store in Amsterdam I knew that this wold be great gift for him. Anyway, what you have here is two punk bands that sing about booze (well - in 5 out of 6 songs), even in a song about killing all the cops. No brainer, but it is a lot of fun. I believe that these bands are made just for fun of it by Tulsa hardcore crew since this 7" was released on Brother Inferior's label and both bands recorded their stuff in NOTA World Headquarters plus on Welfare's "Life Sucks... Stay Drunk" guest vocalist is Jeff Klein of N.O.T.A. fame. If lyrics like "Bitches won't kiss me, but the bottle will" don't offend you you might well enjoy this.
