There's a pretty cool story behind this 7". I guess back in Late '81 (early '82?) in order to get ready for the release of "Damaged", Black Flag had about a hundred or so promo 7"s printed with "Thirsty And Miserable" on the A side and "Life Of Pain" on the B side. Both of the songs were different (out-take) versions of the songs which would appear on the "Damaged" LP. So they took these promos (with no covers) down to Licorice Pizza and asked the people that worked there to hand them out to people who they thought would be interested. Well, I guess the assholes that worked there didn't think anyone would be interested, so they threw the fucking things away!! So all but a few copies were destroyed, but lucky for you, and for me, a few years ago, someone came across a copy and decided it would be a good idea for this to be released out to the public. This bootleg 7" was born out of that idea. It has the demo versions of both songs that were originally released on the promo 7", and also an old demo recording of a demo version of Spray Paint, with Dez on vocals!! This thing is pretty amazing and a record that will most likely want to be heard by all Black Flag fans. Enjoy!!
Tracks:
1. Thirsty And Miserable
2. Life Of Pain
3. Spray Paint
Amazing Japanese hardcore. Don't really know much about this band. It was recommended to me by Nick, and just like everything else Nick recommends, this fucking rips. I guess they have another 7" out there somewhere also. If I ever pick it up I'll post it here.
I should be in bed, but I felt like putting this up instead. Not sure if this is still in print. Maybe it is, but I'm pretty sure it's not easy to find. Enjoy, punk rock made by a bunch of Texans who met in jail..jpg)
So this is the bonus 7" that came with some copies of the Regulations newest album "To Be Me". I haven't seen this posted anywhere else so I figured I'd put it up here. The version of the album that came with this 7" was limited to 200 copies so I figure that these are all sold out. Let me know if they're not and I'll take this down. P.S. I got a new turntable not so long ago so some of my rips may sound like shit. They are listen-able, just not the best sound quality. You have been warned.
Great band. Got lucky and found this for five bucks at my local record store. Definitely worth it. It's the singer from the Regulations band pre-Regulations. Wow that was a horrible sentence. I'd better quit before I sound even more like an idiot. Anyway, great 80's influenced hardcore. Get it, love it.
So It's been forever and a day since I've uploaded anything to this waste of time, so I had better make it a good one. Believe me this on RIPS!!!! Sick pleasure (Nicki Sicki of Verbal Abuse fame) is the band I've been listening to the most for about the last three months. I was lucky to have found this bootleg floating around for a reasonable price (since I'm pretty sure I'll never afford the split with Code Of Honor or anything else they've ever done). Anyway, no real description needed here. Just enjoy.
