TDK & PBNSK - Split EP 1984

Before I watch the soccer match SGE vs. Schalke 04 a quick post by two combos from the Iberian Peninsula, released via π Musikra RecordsFirst PBNSK (Bakery Pastries Our Lady of Karmen) and TDK (Terrorism, Destruction & Kaos), both from Madrid and pioneers of hardcore punk in Spain. The A-side starts with P.B.N.S.K. and their two songs. These two are the only known songs released by them. Little else is known about the group, beyond its pioneering state in punk and hardcore. Its membership was Lanaquera Paco, who later became part of TDK replacing Manolo Uvi. The original lineup constituted: Oscar Lanaquera (voice), Lolo Lacruz (guitar), Paco Lanaquera (bass) and Paco Cameros (drums). 
The vocalist on this record was, however, Manolo "Masacre" (alias "Fan Del Caos"). Other group members were once Pepe Arriols (Pepe Punk) and Toni, who were also part of the group III Guerra Mundial. The B side contains two issues by TDK, "Israel" and "Interrogation". Both songs appeared on later albums of the band. TDK was formed in 1984 after the separation of Espasmódicos, José Siemens, Magüu Plarte and Alfonso Cronopio. They recorded a demo in the studio of Felix Arribas (Pekenikes) and in 1985 the first 12'' Esto Es Una Empresa Capitalista which is a fantastic record. Four albums followed, lots of 7inch and after the release of the 4th album the band broke up in 1989. The split was released in 1984 and was reissued in 2005 by Radikal 1977 Records.
Just listen to this splendid furious smash in your face attack!!
