Etae-Rotten To The Core

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.

Legionaires Disease-Catch The Disease

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.

Regulations-Live Bonus EP 7"

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.

Tracks:

1. Police Car

2. In 1945

3. Police Siren

4. Hollywood Smile

5. Disease

6. Untouchable

ETA-No Faith 12"

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.

Tracks:

1. Killed By Skateboarding

2. Get Off My Back

3. Can't Stand You

4. What Should I Do?

5. I Don't Believe In Unity

6. No Faith

7. Identity Crisis

8. Feel The Pressure

9. I Won't Eat It

10. I Don't Care

Dicks-Kill From The Heart

The greatest Austin band? Some say Big Boys. Some say Dicks. Some say Offenders (right Nick?). Whomever you choose there is no denying that Dicks "Kill From The Heart" is one of the greatest albums EVER in the early years of American hardcore no matter where they're from. This is yet another bootleg that I was able to pick up not too long ago, and I'm glad I did. Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with Greg Ginn? He's sitting on one of the best albums of all time and wont reissue it! Anyway, I'll never be able to afford the original yet again so here's the boot.

Tracks:

1. Anti-Klan (Part One)

2. Rich Daddy

3. No Nazi's Friend

4. Marilyn Buck

5. Kill From The Heart

6. Little Boy's Feet

7. Pigs Run Wild

8. Bourgeois Fascist Pig

9. Purple Haze

10. Anti-Klan (Part Two)

11. Right Wing/White Ring

12. Dicks Can't Swim (I. Cock Jam, II. Razor Blade Dance)

Sick Pleasure-Destroy The Human Race 7"

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.

Tracks:

1. Three Seconds Of Pleasure

2. Sick Pleasure

3. Herpes Virus Two

4. Dolls Under Control

5. Speed Rules

6. I Wanna Burn My Parents

7. Love Song

Black Flag-Licorice Pizza Bootleg 7"

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

The Beat

Ok, so I figured it was time for a little change of pace.  The Beat were an amazing power pop band (new wave to those not in the know) that came out of LA in the late 70's.  They're fronted by Paul Collins, the drummer (I think, right?) and one of the vocalists for the seminal power pop The Nerves (Hanging on the Telephone anyone?).  This is in my mind one of the greatest albums (punk, pop, any genre) to come out of LA in the late 70's.  Definitely worth checking out for a poppy good time!!

Tracks:

1. Rock N Roll Girls

2. I Don't Fit In

3. Different Kind Of Girl

4. Don't Wait Up For Me

5. You Won't Be Happy

6. Walking Out On Love

7. Work-A -Day World

8. USA

9. Let Me Into Your Life

10. Working Too Hard

11. You And I (You May Wanna Skip This One)

12. Look But Don't Touch

Ebay Blowssss!!!

I know and agree.  Ebay is one of the worst inventions ever created, and I hate it. With that being said, I'm poor and un-employed so sometimes you gotta make a deal with the devil to survive. Check out the stuff I have for sale on Ebay here!! I update it pretty often and there's usually some good stuff on there.  Thanks!!

PS: This will be my first and only attempt to sell shit on this blog.  Sorry.

Symbol Six-Ego/Taxation 7"

This is another one of those early so cal/Posh Boy bands that not many people have heard of. Just great early South Bay style melodic punk.  From what I know of, all these guys ever released was a four song 12" on Posh Boy.  This 7" is two of those songs that was re-issued by Posh Boy in the early 90's. This is a must for fans of the Adolescents and early TSOL.

Tracks:

1. Ego

2. Taxation

Government Issue Re-Issue!!

For those who don't know, Dr. Strange Records has recently re-issued Government Issues' seminal hardcore record "Make An Effort"!!  Finally re-issued in the US, this 7" has been re-mastered by Tom Lyle himself.  Get on this as soon as possible.  There is a colored version that is limited to 100 copies, and the black version which is strictly limited to 1000 copies.  Get it before it's out of print for another 10 or more years. Purchase your copy here!

PS. There is also a limited cover for the Test Press.  The Doc has already sold out of these, but if you see it somewhere by sure to snatch it up ASAP.  Limited to around 30 copies!! Also, be on the look out for the Boycott Stabb LP to be re-issued some time later this year!!

The Hypnotics-Indoor Fiends LP

I'm really surprised that more people haven't heard of these guys.  Great early 80's, snotty as all hell punk.  If you thought the Angry Samoans were smart asses, take that times a hundred.  Best thing about the band is the keyboard, sounds like a mix between the Angry Samoans and the Screamers.  Recommended for fans of early LA punk rock.

Tracks:

1. Weird People

2. Eating Soup

3. News

4. Nazi Snotzy

5. Sometimes

6. I Can't Think

No Hope For The Kids-Das Reich 7"

Hell yes.  I was so excited when I saw this come through the record store.  This is most definitely my favorite release by this band.  Das Reich is just a great, fast, melodic, early "American" sounding hardcore song.  The B-Side (Secret Police) is a little slower, but still just as driving and melodic.  How could you not love the guitar work on this song?  This is another one of those records that the tracks aren't hard to find, but it's technically out of print and it's something I think everyone should hear, so enjoy!!!

PS: If you like this, pick up their self titled album.  The 2nd press is still available on Feral Ward Records.  Get it here!!

What Happens Next?-Brutiful Fearing 6"

So I'm an idiot, I admit it and have no shame.  This idiocy keeps me from finding stuff at the same pace as other people.  This explains why I slept on this band for so long.  Every time I heard anything about What Happens Next? I would just pass them off as some generic thrash bullshit.  I was wrong.  This is just some great hardcore. Loud, fast, with some cool guitar work.  This was the first release by them that I bought, but be sure to look out for more WHN stuff coming up soon.

Tracks:

1. Banner Sized Politics

2. For What

3. Resolve 365

4. Exploitation, Assimilation, Violence

5. SSIL

6. Silenzio Statico (Indigesti cover)

Fucked Up-No Pasaran 7"

Ok, so I know these tracks aren't hard to find, but this 7" is out of print and I love these songs so they're gonna be the first to go up here.  This is by far my favorite Fucked Up record.  Great straight up hardcore with none of the overdoing of their more recent releases (don't get me wrong, I love that shit too, but sometimes I wish they would simplify it back down).  This is just an amazing record that I think everyone should hear, so here you go!

Tracks:

1. No Pasaran

2. Circling The Drain

Just Starting Out

Hey,

So this is my first post!  Kinda cool.  I've always wanted to do one of these, but never had the time (still don't, but I'll try to update as much as possible). I'm hoping that this will become a place where I can share stuff that's not so easy to find (or out or print) so more people can discover some cool stuff.  Anyway, if you want any more info on the stuff posted here (or to send me free shit to post) email, and I'll make sure to get back to you.  Thanks!
