BLITZ - Heil Reagan 7'' 1981

It even sometimes funny, because I'm looking for this little pearl for years and now I got them sent twice. These are the beauty moments of a bloggers life, haha....here I found a little review which which I can only underline. "The first work of this Berlin quintet is truly brilliant. 'Heil Reagan' has powerful rhythm from bass and drums, plus a frenzied guitar and english vocals. Very interesting-sounding female voice. Real Underground. 'No Time' is a real melodic reggae-influenced song that suddenly goes off, the voice is insane. For me, one of the best singles of the year 1981." (Eugene Honold, Pretty Vacant No.8, 1981) - They later also appears on the awesome Soundtracks Zum Untergang (coming soon) compilation under a new name (and more wavish approach) M.D. BLITZ and then it became quiet around the band.

- Special Thx goes to Fredrik & KHS -

  1. It did not become all quiet around the band - their guitarist Carlo Karges (who played with Tomorrow's Gift and Novalis in the early 70s and The Ramblers in 1979) went on to form Nena and sold millions with "99 Luftballons". He died in 2002. Singer Nadja Smith also made some more records, but not that successful. -- Oh, and I wish you could re-up The Out single "Who Is Innocent?" ...
