Killed By Death Records

This is a re-post from April the 8th 2006. Added more scans, Produkt av 70 ara and Ingen visjoner.

A Nice piece of Norwegian punk. I think this is the one and only record from this band, still it has 2 great songs.

Country: Norway
Year: 1980
Label: Torpedo plater

Equally as much progg as punk can be found in the sound of GBG(short for Goteborg) Sound. The rock n roll riffs that became the trade mark of the whole late 70s punk scene in Gothenburg was maybe used the most by these nice looking lads.

To me Pappas pojkar is their best song tightly followed by Bjorn Borg(the first record posted here). Just listen to the spitting break at 1:31 into the song and you know that they’re serious in their hate against brats supported by their rich dads. If they where around today I guess something like this would’ve been a great inspiration.

Country: Sweden
Year: 1979
Label: GBG

Some freshly made powerpop. It’s not hmm… Oh fuck it’s one of those old sucky ones again. Buhu. The Fans second effort and nearly as good as Giving Me That Look… At least the title track. The guitar sound in the intro is amazing. Sounds like it’s recorded on a heavily used cassette and then played on an even worse tape deck. What kind of effect is that? A bad chorus box? Follow You is ok but there’s only one Police. No need to copy ‘em though they manage to save them self in the chorus.

“The band was enthralled by the same vision of creating quality songs at a speed which reflected the genre of the time and their drugs of choicer (cocaine and speed).“

Country: UK
Year: 1980

I have a spare copy of Psycho Surgeons up for sale in case anyones interested:

Psycho Surgeons at eBay.

Back with a bang! There’s great HC and there’s utterly disgraceful HC. This falls into the first category. This is the real deal. No poses or some kids just discovering HC and singing about how great it is and that we have to mosh, skate and stick togheter like one while we’re spinning the other generic HC record after another.

This post is dedicated to Mr. Power Metal/Erich Good Bad Music to pay him back for his nice dedication.

As a poor little punk kid brought up by my mother working her ass off as a nurse there weren’t much money around for her son to buy those tasty punk and HC records coming out in the early 80s.

So what could one do? Steal of course! On the left side of my leather jacket I had ripped a large hole where 7inches nicely fitted in.

On a visit to my father who lived in Stockholm I always payed the several record stores in the capital of Sweden a visit. In the corner of the big hooker street Malmskillnadsgatan in Stockholm they had this really good record store called Record Pool(If my memory serves me). A rainy autumn day in 1983 they had both the Urban Waste and the Cause For Alarm 7inches. I hadn’t heard them but since every punk record released back then where at least decent I didn’t hesitate to pull ‘em both into my punk jacket and heading out of there.

Now repeat after me kids and old farts:
I’m not into punk rock. I’m not into hardcore. Don’t you try to label me. Public opinion!

Country: USA
Year: 1982

The TV Eye // Drummer sure left with a bang! So I’ll leave you all with The Enemys second killer 7inch Bang Bang You’re Dead! I will now go full time on my hunt for Rob Noxious, lewdsnot, zoloft_anaconda, Guy Robert Archambue.

Thanks for all the support and a Happy New Year!

OK, this will be the last post from me, TVEYE // Drummer, because I can´t find the time to keep on posting on this blog (as you noticed), and Peter is doing a great job so I guess you won´t miss me. From now on, Peter (The Flakes // Drummer) will run this blog all by himself.

Please enjoy some GREAT old swedish punkrock and wave, and hopefully all you pretentious record collectors will get some more obscure records to add to your evergrowing wantlists…

Now go start your own blog!

Thanks!
