SPERMICIDE - Femme Prothèse 7'' 1980

Hotter than hell is the following rare 7Inch on No Wonder Records by a three piece from Brussels which consisted of three members: Erik (vocals/guitars), Philippe (bass), Giovanni (drums) - I'll quote a few info from the Bloodstains Compilation II: "Spermicide from Brussels was short-lived and this time we present you the title track of their 7Inch 'Femme Prothèse' (note how many punk bands were inspired by this shitty country we live in; one of them was even simply called "Belgium"). Most copies were released without a sleeve, but with an insert. They never released anything else, but a (demo) tape is circulating somewhere. "They never had a political agenda, nor was there any fighting against the police in squats. It's all a fable." (Guy Delcroix, brother of singer Eric) After Spermicide, singer/guitarist Eric, together with a new drummer and bassist, formed another band: Neo Arya, which released an mini album, Entre L'Amour Et La Haine, in 1984. Neo Arya's rhythm section remained active in various bands over the years and today plays in Europe's leading instrumental band, the Vice Barons (three albums on Demolition Derby), as well as in the mod band Supersonic." - Delicious record!
