From the dark woods of black metal, burning churches and Fleksnes comes this crude and amateurish punk rock oil dripping piece. Clever London Houses would’ve been more talked about if it was released by a UK band I guess. It’s so goddamn catchy. Compared to the b-side you hear that the kids really dig what they’re playing. They keep the song together by pure will. So it sounds to me at least. The b-side is boring, boring, boring. Long, slow and uninteresting. Sure it sounds like punk did in the head of the people who weren’t into it.
Here’s a interview and some nice info about Anakonda, unfortunately only in norweigan: -Är det du som kallas för Anakonda? -Nej. -Försök inte att slingra dig.

Does it matter if it’s a first press or not? To some it does. This is the first press which you can tell by the labels being white instead of yellow as on the second press, pressed up in the late 80s(?). The bass got a great plonk sound and the guitar has just so much treble it’s on the border to hurt your ears.
To my ears the whole production sounds very proto hardcore. The year of release is 1978 but could’ve been 1981 too if you ask me. I’m especially found of Chris D’s vocals and of course his great lyrics. This debut and their first LP is alright with me yeah yeah.

Abba – Money, Money, Money

Money, Anarchy, Punx
This is a joint venture together with Good Bad Music to expose one of the best bands ever namely Abba. Erich takes on the job to expose you to Take A Chance On Me.
My first punk band formed in 1978 was called Zabba Abba. Which means something like destroy Abba. What a shame! To pay repent I must post this cute little piece with a sweet introduction of each of the members and what they want you to know about Sweden. Agneta, the hottest of the ladies, tells you that we “Talk about love.” I can only agree. I would love to share a story about when she secretly let me touch her butt ones when I was in my late teens but I save that for another day. Listen to the wonderful string arrangement and weep.
Lama – S/T E.P. 7″

Koskenkorva, knifes, sauna, pimples, lakes, forests and a strange and harsh language pretty much sums up Finland/Soumi to me plus a couple of great punk and hardcore bands. Here’s the debut from Lama. I’ve posted their second and third releases a long time ago. Guess they need to be reposted.
I’ve been to the twin cities Saint Paul/Minneapolis in Minnesota for a week and I’m pretty fucked up now. Need some rest. Just want to post something so you guys and girls don’t go nuts.

The Shivvers – S/T 7″
Saturday, October 6th, 2007
Teen Line is pretty much one of the greatest songs in the history of powerpoop. With members from and related to acts like The Orbits, Lubricants and Haskels. Yeah yeah I read all this here: Shivvers. Considering the Teen Line is almost a perfect crafted pop song it’s no wonder Teen Line gave name to a whole series compiling obscure powerpop released by Chucks Hyped To Death label.
While Teen Line is just pop the flip When I Was Younger leans more to a later version of The Avengers and may be more in favor to the pure punk fascist, but I doubt it.
Next time I’ll post some White Power Pop that I recently discovered. Instead of singing about how they shall kill all the jews like your average White Power band the whole White Power Pop scene got a different angle: they’ll hugh the inferior races to death. Sure it’s killing but it’s a far more sympathetic way of killing. How came I had you read this rubbish? Don’t ask me.
