This is a re-post from March 27th, 2006 by TV EYE // Drummer. Added more scans and new rips of all ths songs. First posted by TV EYE// Drummer.

The first time this one was posted it made NiteOwl and Peter fall deeply in love with each other and this site just oozed of sexual energy from their conversation, so hopefully a re-post will result in a couple of new marriages, all thanks to this website.

In my opinion The Buttocks is yet another proof that hardcore was a worldwide phenomenon, and a development of punk that happened everywhere simultaneously. If you think hardcore was the Americans own thing, just listen to Kill The Pigs and think again. Or ask Peter J. if it’s hardcore, and if so, is it any good as it’s not American;)
Personally I like all 4 songs, even if Nein nein nein is a personal favorite which is pretty easy to figure out as soon as the insanely driving guitar riff starts the song. What a great riff that is! And the drums kick in just perfect making the guitar riff even greater! I think I’m in love!

Original text by TV Eye // Drummer:
I violated the unwritten law to enter the shop in my hometown that sold punk outfits like t-shirts, badges, leopard-trousers etc etc. If you were a “real” punk you were forbidden to go in there…They also had a small section with vinyls and in the early 80´s i bought 1st MDC-LP, the Zmiv 7-inch and this German classic! I´m glad I broke the rule…

Erich posted this 7″ some years ago, but as his mp3s don’t work anymore, I thought I should post it as well. Can’t do you no harm, can it?

And just like Erich I don’t know anything about this San Francisco band, or even the year it was released. Some sites says 1979 and other 1980 so if anyone knows what year it actually was released, or anything else for that matter, feel free to chare your knowledge. And speaking of knowledge, I wonder if this band was an inspiration for Operation Ivy as they both came from SF, and managed to mix ska and reggae with punk without make a fool of themselves.

Enjoy yourselves (it’s later then you think).

How many songs were written about disco freaks in the late 70s/ early 80s? Shit loads of course, but not too many of them by bands from places further north than Boden where these guys hailed from. The band took their name from the fortress that was built to protect Sweden from the horrible Russians and the even worse Norweigans, who still today wants to take over our pretty social democratic idyll and turn it into an oil-loving vassal state of their corrupted king, Harald the 5th. Thanks to Bodens fastning we will stand strong and refuse to sing “Ja, vi elsker dette landet”.

The b-side sucks, but the drummers kick drum technique suck even more.

Just as Martin babbles on about that “this has to be the greatest record from Sweden ever” I once again have to say that this has to be one of the best 7inches from UK/Scotland…EVER!! The whole record oozes creativity. From the packaging to the clever and super catchy song writing. According to the news clips that followed my copy Radio Iceland is dedicated to “the strongest independent nation on Earth”(“…Like Sweden’s a mini-America now…” ha ha) I guess that’s not true monetary wise anymore. How much do Iceland cost these days? One song that I would love to hear that’s mentioned in the Northern Lights news clip is “Hysteric Esoterics” about Aleister Crowley. “Crowley is just a fun thing…” ha ha ha.

I think this is their only output which is a shame. If anyone has anything to share please do!!!
