YOUTH OF TODAY - Take A Stand (Live) CD (1992)

YOUTH OF TODAY - Take A Stand (Live) CD
(Lost And Found Records, LF 044)
No need to introduce YOUTH OF TODAY here. The live-recording is kinda enjoyable, and I was wondering if this is a "legal" release done by the famous bootlegs kings from hannover, Lost and Found Records. It´s not a secret anymore that mostly of their releases in the early 90s are not as "official" as they always try to let the buyer think. Alot of oversea bands were ripped off by L&F.
L&F were also famous for the lack of informations about the recordings, so I really can´t tell you when and where the live songs were recorded. All I can say is, if you ever want to hear YOUTH OF TODAY doing a CRO-MAGS cover ("Malfunctions"), now you have the chance to, along w/ 29 more songs. So enough value for money...

IDORA - s/t 7" (1991)

IDORA - s/t 7" (1991)
(Heartfirst Records, BEAT 005)
Astonishingly western style hardcore from this japanese hardcore band. Instead of raw, crust or typical J-Punk/Hardcore, IDORA sounds more like they would come from the states, if you can overlook their bad english. You need some examples? Alright, what about: "Never warm throw into the fire / But I say never sense". Another one? No problem: "What´s I say in the din / Wait the end in your nothing / With you forget myself / Into the feast selection boredom"
uuuh? wtf???.... maybe it´s because I´m just a fuckin´ kraut, but that sounds very, very odd.
Musicwise it´s powerful hardcore. As far as I remember, Flo (Heartfirst Records) promoted this 7" as the new NEGATIVE APPROACH (or something like that). Far to much, but this is still a great record in my opinion...
by the way: the man himself (Flo/Heartfirst Records) has also a blog w/ "blurry pictures and senseless rambling". It´s kinda new, but yet a pleasant read...

ABFUKK - Demo-Tape (2009)

ABFUKK - Demo-Tape (2009)
(D.I.Y.)
Alright, this blog was never meant to post "new stuff", not because I´m an old farts and believe "that everything was better in the old days", but I believe it kinda hard nowadays to sell your records to someone, when this "someone" could easily download the stuff somewhere on the internet, right?
After Chris of the Mosh Eisley blog ripped the demo of ABFUKK, I was abit "unsatisfied" w/ the sound. No, Chris did the best job you could imaging, but what do you expect from a rip of a demotape? Right on...
I usually chat w/ Makke (the drummer from ABFUKK) mostly very day and I ask him if he had the songs of the demo as mp3. Sure he had and after he finished work and was back at his place he send me the mp3s. That was yesterday...
Today, I woke up with the idea if I could spread the songs in a better quality thru this blog?!? The demo is already sold out, so what?
I distrub (chatting w/ girls... alright) makke again, and ask him and what can I say: here it is!!!! I hope you´ll enjoy it as much as I did!
About ABFUKK and to cut things short: formly known as THE ITALIAN STALLION, chancing name because they want to do a "different style" of hardcore/punk (I wish all bands would have the guts to break up and do another band, if they want to chance)
Check up their myshit page www.myspace.com/totalabfukk , go to their shows and buy their upcoming LP/CD later this year.
Believe me: it will blast you away...

STICKS AND STONES - Storm Coming 7" (1990)

STICKS AND STONES - Storm Coming 7" (1990)
(Skene Records, No. 8)
What a wonderful record, what a wonderful band. STICKS AND STONES from New Jersey plays wonderful catchy punk rock, just w/ the different that they have a keyboard for the second guitar. Sounds strange? Yeah, maybe, but believe me: it works perfectly!!!
If you think you know the singer from somewhere, maybe you know him from WORLD INFERNO FRIENDSHIP SOCIETY! ;)
Alright, if you need more informations check this one and here you find theire "Inner Revolt" tape for downloading on the amazing "Blogged And Quartered" blog.
To the cover: I have something in the back of my mind that I read somewhere somehow of a small quantity of this 7" coming in a xerox cover. So here it is. I get the 7" with this xerox cover, but w/o the lyrics sheet and on the inside of the cover were stated handwritten: 29 of 120.

GG ALLIN - The Troubled Troubador 7" (1990)

GG ALLIN - The Troubled Troubador 7" (1990)
(Mountain Records, M733EP-002)
...and before someone might think this is a straight-edge hardcore blog, I had to post a GG ALLIN 7".
Different than his other recordings this three songs are more some kind of weirdo singer/songwriter stuff, w/ the usual sex und drugs lyrics. GG ALLIN w/ his accustic guitar and sometimes a slide guitar in the background.
"When I Die" is the hit here....

CHARLEY´S WAR - s/t 7" (1990)

CHARLEY´S WAR - s/t 7" (1990)
(Crucial Response Records, CRR 009)
CHARLEY´S WAR, from Berlin, were on of the first Straight-Edge/NYHC-Style bands from germany. In the early 90s there was a real hype around this band. The famous "Zap" Fanzine featured the band alot, along with for example 7 INCH BOOTS.
So Peter Hören from Crucial Response Records (which were and still is a outstanding SxE/HC label) took the chance to released this 7".
As far as I remember there were alot of trouble afterward between the band and Peter. Things about retouched pics of the band (plain white t-shirt vs. a WARZONE shirt), non-printed lyrics and cut versions of thanks lists and stuff like that. Through MAD Tour Booking (you know the deal?!?) CHARLEY´S WAR toured alot with american bands like SLAPSHOT, UPFRONT etc. and get´s kinda kown within the scene.
Personally I liked the 7" alot, but afterward the band I used to sing back in the days played togeher w/ CHARLEY´S WAR I was totally disappointed because they guys from CW were acting real rockstarish.
Nevertheless, this 7" is kinda importend for german hardcore... so see it as a historic document, even through music wise it didn´t stand the test of time!

SECOND COMBAT - What Has Inspired Us 7" (2006)

SECOND COMBAT - What Has Inspired Us 7"
(Commitment Records, COM30)
I do love South/East Asia, and I do love go backpacking there. The best part were always when I heard/read about a HC/Punk show going on there. Over the years I visit several punk shows in thailand, indonesia and malaysia and guess what: the shows were always GREAT! Everytime the kids going wild and party fuckin hard on every bands which had played there. No matter if that was a local band, or one of the few "westernd" bands which had the guts to tour S/E Asia - the kids slamdanced, stagedived, moshed and try to sing along the best they can...
Now, what have these things to do w/ SECOND COMBAT?
Well, SECOND COMBAT are a straight edge hardcore band from Malaysia. They even managed to tour europe a few years ago. They were the second band (the first one were a screamo band... can´t remember their name, sorry!) from Malaysia which took the chance to tour here... and now comes the funny thing about that: everytime a band from malaysia comes over to good old europe, I was backpacking somewhere in S/E Asia and I missed the band. Stupid me or aka. bad timing...

V/A - Revive Us Again (1993)

V/A - Revive Us Again (1993)
(Machination Records, Number One)

Here´s another Compilation 7" before I go to bed. Hailing from Belgium, Machination Records brings us 8 Songs from 7 bands from all over the world. It starts with the mince/grindcore kings AGATHOCLES with a uncommonly hardcoreish track called "Get Off Your Ass" to followed by MEDICINE MAN from NYC with their strange sounding Hardcore/Punk. RUPTURE with their bad sounding track "Green Goblin´s Our Leader" and "Have a Free Life" by belgium crustcore kings HIATUS ends side A.
Side B starts with two songs by MAN IS THE BASTARDS, followed by a crustcore song from EXCREMENT OF WAR from the UK. "Don´t Need A Fucking God", a HEROIN cover by NATIONS ON FIRE ends this nice little plastic thing. All in all a quite well, but not a really "must-have" compilation with a few bigger names (MAN IS THE BASTARDS, AGATHOCLES, NATIONS ON FIRE...)

CONFLICT - This Is Not Enough 7" (1995)

CONFLICT - This Is Not Enough 7" (1995)
(Mortarhate, MORT 8)
I was never a "fan" of CONFLICT (and similar Anarcho-Punk-Bands). Mostly I couldn´t stand their lyrics and found them very pathetic. Sing about the state or government on the one hand, acting different, sign on "major labels" and stuff on the other hand.
Same thing here: instead of including the lyrics to their songs, CONFLICT (or the label or whoever) offers on the backside "The lyrics to this project are included in the publication "Statement" (Mort 180) containing information and lyrics relevant to all CONFLICT´s releases to date"
Hahaha.... what a bad joke.
So, I up the two songs just for the record - it was the first 7" I´ve ever ripped w/ my USB record player, and I guess there´re alot of people who still dig this, so what??!!?? I´m not a preacher nor a person-who-knows-it-all, so hear whatever you want, download the mp3s or don´t, I don´t care. CONFLICT aren´t my cup of tea, that´s all....
