SWAMPSURFERS : Demo TAPE 1987 (NETHERLANDS)

 

Famous band cause their both LP's are on HAGELAND RECORDS, a great Belgium label mainly active in the second part of the 80's. This Demo TAPE is still obscure a lot and that's what I like best about them...

ZWAAR KLOTE / INCEST : Split Demo TAPE 1984 (Venlo NETHERLANDS). Classic and still obscure at the same time released on a cult label.

 

Tight, fast and powerful hardcore punk by these two short-lived bands from the early 80's Dutch scene (Venlo). Members of Pandemonium, Disgust, Gore among others...

PARALISIS PERMANENTE : SPAIN. I like Spanish punk and hardcore but this band has something very special for me, at least their early materials! This is punk like only a few bands were able to play it, spontaneous, total catchy... The kind of riffs that remain firmly planted deep in the head. You can be sure after listening tracks such as "Autosuficiencia", "Un dia en Texas", "Unidos" or "Jugando a las cartas en el cementerio".

I never had a chance to own the 1st pressing of the split 7" on TIC TAC, it's too much rare + expensive but I prefer this cover (second pressing)... we console ourselves as best we can!

About "El acto" LP, for some reasons, I never found a copy despite all these years.

I'm not a fan of their third 7", so...

T.P.U. : Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. Very good interesting solid US hardcore punk from the second part of the 80's. Still obscure a lot...

 

Is there anyone who can provide info(s) about recording + artwork (or not?) for their 1986 Demo TAPE ?

HONOR ROLE : Richmond, Virginia, USA.

 

Given the "ridiculous" (or deserved... ??) crazy prices charged today for a lot of classics... How is it possible that these aren't in the most expensives?
Anyway, what about the prices, they were (and still are) essentials in decent hc / punk collection that are worthy of the name!

PEGGIO PUNX : ITALY, Alessandria. 6-song Demo TAPE 1982, random 81/82/83 sessions TAPE, both Linea diritta Lives TAPES, 1st 7" 1983, 2nd 7" 1984 and 1st 12" 1985. I used to have the 1990 LP but only a couple of songs are in my tastes, so, I've sold it...

OUT OF ORDER & OUT OF OUR HEADS : GERMANY, East-Westphalia.

 

Great minimalist 1981 German punk for the OUT OF ORDER : 7" while the LP (also from 1981) sounds like some of the best early classics UK punk stuff. OUT OF OUR HEADS : 7", (from 1981 as well) is a band with members of OUT OF ORDER and AHEADS. They came together just for this excellent punk EP.

THE BUTTOCKS : Hamburg, GERMANY.

 

Old classics that I own for a very long time... Each time I play them, it's amazing cause I cannot help but think that this is 1979 and 1980! Perfect transition from punk to punk Hardcore, great time!
