Killed By Death Records

On a boat over to Finland I once learned to say:”Hey all finnish people. Let’s bring out your knifes.”. I thought that was a good idea to say on stage when playing with an old band in Helsingfors. It turned out they didn’t understand a shit. Well here’s another great record with our old favourites Lama. Not as great as the former Lama post but close. Especially Anarkomarko.

…Obscurity. Another overlooked Australian powerpop/punk record. If I had the insert I maybe would be able to present some more information. Ahhh that darn Rob Noxious forgotten it. Fatal Slip and Gee, Why? should’ve made a lot more talked about 7inch I guess. On the Doublethink label.

Country: Australia

Lots of crappy bands that where popular among the rotten critics in the UK like: Orange Juice, Josef K, Raincoats etc. BUT what the fuck? An awesome track by the Buzzcocks that I hadn’t heard before! I got in the early ’90s. Doing research I found that it’s included in some complete discography from 2004. As a bonus anus I’ve also posted the Subway Sect track which is great!

Country: UK
Year: 1980
Label: NME/Rough Trade
Format: Cassete
Songs:

One of the five first swedish punk rock records I bought. I remember thinking that it was strange I liked it so much since it was quiet slow and not that raw. It was the attitude in there that I loved. I can still hear it and I still love it. Travolta Kids also appeard at the swedish comp. Bakverk 80 with bands like KSMB, Incest Brothers etc. Later Travolta Kids stuff is really bad but this and the tracks on the comp. still appeals to me.

Country: Sweden
Year: 1979
Label: Ljudspar

Songs:
Veckans brott.mp3
Titta pa den dar.mp3

Stry Terrarie is back! This time with his ego trip Stry & Stripparna. Raw, obnoxious and great produced swedish punk rock. In the same vein as Kriminella Gitarrer so you know it’s fantastic. Vietnam is a slow and very boring track.

Country: Sweden
Year: 1979
Label: Heartwork
Format: 7″
Songs:
Inte intressant.mp3
Fem sekunder.mp3
Vietnam

The only great track I’ve heard with Yard Trauma is Eyes. And that is a killer one! Traumatized on the flip is decent. Luckily it’s short enough to be posted here. If you’re not like me and want to know more about them then read here: Yard Trauma. Pruduced by Brett Gurewitz from Bad Religion.

Country: USA
Year: 1991
Label: Dionysus

If you haven’t read “We Got The Neutron Bomb” yet you have too! All these crazy storys about Black Randy is priceless. One of his party tricks was to take a dump in the girls purses. When they went into the toilet there sometimes where some of them screaming as they where combing their hair(taken from the purse of course) and seconds later found out they’ve got pooped. The Metro Squad included K.K. from The Screamers and John Doe from X among others. Easilly an underrated artist among the Dangerhouse bands. Highlight: Loner With A Boner
Country: USA
Year: 1977
Label: Dangerhouse
Format: 7″
Songs:
Trouble At The Cup.mp3
Loner With A Boner.mp3

It’s a miracle the vinyl still holds togheter. One of my top 10 US Hardcore records ever. One weak spot: Sheer Terror. John Stabb deserves as much credits as Ian McKay. To fuck with the “real” punks he dresed up in hippy shirts and the likes. That IS punk rock. Buy all the reissues from Dr. Strange cause they deserve it!

Country: USA
Year: 1983
Label: Fountain Of Youth / Dischord
Format: 12″
Songs:
Hall Of Fame.mp3
Hour Of 1.mp3

Take It Or Leave It is a great punk/powerpop stomper but the b-side oh my! It’s just so bad and a badly hidden rip off of the soul/reggae classic where they’re singing “you can make it if you really want it.” or something like that. What’s the title of that song? Somewhere in the back of my head Cliff Richard pops up.

Country: Scothland
Year: 1978
Label: NRG
Format: 7″
Songs:

No Compromise

“A band from the Manchester punk scene along with the Fall , Buzzcocks and Warsaw and containing ex members of the Nosebleeds and Panik.“. Excellent 7inch with two good tracks on the a-side and an awesome one on the flip. Hear they’re still around. I gave a 7inch they released in the ’90s a spin and it was terrible.
