V/A - The Vikings Are Coming 1985

The small steel mill town of Fagersta had seven bands and their skills were immortalised on this rare Compilation, first released by Uproar Records in Sweden, then licensed to New Face Records in Brazil, and presents itself as surprisingly diverse: old-school Punk meets brutal Hardcore attacks; melodic speedcore flirts with refreshing thrash noises, while others impress with unique a good sense of humour. The first issue contained the 'Uproar No.3' fanzine, featuring interviews with all the bands on this record. Re-released several times and still as interesting as full red lips. It's time for a small imbiss.

V/A - Migraine Für Mein ... Electrokopf EP 2006

A decent small '77 style PowerPunk Compilation from Wanda Records, two times Marseille, two times Saxony. For some of your neighbors, the record actually gives them migraines, while for fans of short, dynamic songs it's rather invigorating. Play this loud at five in the morning and see what happens. The only "downside" is that the whole spectacle is over after about eight minutes, but it puts everything into an endless loop and lovely visitors are guaranteed.

V/A - Oi! Of Japan 1985

Leaving Europe heading east and we stop in the Land of the Rising Sun and check this nice Compilation from AA Records which showcases goodies from the Japanese Oi!/Streetpunk scene, and that was/is not small. Praised for its classic sound, which combines "chunky beats with sing-along chants and some wackiness". Reviewers describe it as a fun and crazed collection with a range of styles. It captures the essence of the British Oi! scene from its heyday, featuring classic raw songs. It has a "fun and crazed" atmosphere, blending traditional Oi! anthems with some unique Japanese flair. A diverse of cool bands, showcasing the range of talent in the Japanese Oi! scene at the time and is significant release, bringing a variety of bands to a wider audience and is still considered a quality record, particularly for its authenticity, unfortunately without the inner sleeve. Enjoy!

V/A - Powerpearls Vol.2 1998

It's been a long time since I presented a Powerpearls Compilation in this theater, and today I was just in the mood for some good music, and this excellent series with fantastic songs/bands is perfect. Volume two is packed with hit after hit, leaving hardly any time to breathe. It's ideal for clearing your mind, fitting your body, sipping a warm cup of tea, and writing some bullshit about an awesome record. From all corners of the brave new world, outcasts have unpacked their instruments and created sounds that make the everyday routine crap and dealing with the dumbed-down society easier and more pleasant for us. Eighteen Pearls wait for your ears, all as rare as snow in the Sahara and the record was also released on yellow vinyl... and remember: "You can't experience early enough how dispensable you are in the world." Now you know.

V/A - The Dark Days Are Over (13 Weeks Later) 2025

Welcome to another indispensable release on WDM Records, and number 017 is a small follow-up to the last Compilation I posted thirteen weeks ago. Both can be considered as a whole. That's of course due to the experience I've had, and I know that the person concerned will never listen to this music, but I had a little hope for change and didn't want to accept this situation. After all, I thought there was some feeling involved, but now I know it better, the file is closed I can say. I thought so too, but I like to give a second chance and I think it's only fair, but when you realize there's really nothing there, just only self-interest, selfishness, and zero emotions, I have no other choice to let this person go who was truly important to me, and that hurts like fucking hell. Well, dear friends, it's not a pleasant experience and I know, I am a fool, but it's part of life, like buying bread from the baker or need to pee. I hope this selection reflects the inner turmoil I've gone through, and if anyone now in this trouble or has currently experiencing something similar will find comfort & strength in this fucker, hope it helps and conveys to you that YOU are valuable and don't let yourself be beaten down or taken advantage of, and that you will do better next time, recognize the signs and listen to your instincts. Personally, I have to say it's one of the best Comps I've ever made, and it accompanies me while cooking, cleaning, or posting. Every song is a nail in the coffin and a cry for help. And if this stupid bitch ever reading this: think about your life and stop screwing over people who like/love you and show a little respect! - So, now it's out and finished. My dear listeners, I wish you positive thoughts while listening to this short emotional musical roller coaster.

V/A - Bloodstains Across Texas 1992

Now it's fucking Monday again and pheww... I can tell you, it's a bit tiring jetting around the world, meeting people and always giving 100%... but the effort is worth it because these are always valuable friendships and they need to be nurtured. Having landed in Houston and with me this beautiful record with eighteen essential Punkrock blasts in my luggage (I think it's the last missing Bloodstains goodie in this damn blog) and the slab shines in all its glory like the area of ​​the second large state of the damn United States. Well, as I said, music from this contaminated state is straightforward and hits you hard in the ears and I guess it is one of the most successful Compis of this series. It starts superbly and ends magnificently; it's pure gold! Considering how much money these records cost these days, it's quite remarkable, especially since they're almost impossible to get anymore. It's a profoundly impactful record and highlights some of the important bands of the early years and is another great piece of American Punk history that you can't missed.

V/A - Earth Rapers & Hell Raisers 2x7'' 1989

We stay fast and loud and come to this double 7inch on Hippycore Records with mostly American bands that are rather unknown to me (except Samiam whose song is almost out of place I think) but somehow and where all of them made a 7inch or even a record. It's a Benefit release for Phoenix Earth First!, I can't say exactly what it is or was but it doesn't matter, the song selection is consistently cool and sharp. A healthy mix I would say, Hardcore with a bit of metal influence and solid like a good friend who won't let you down, a second release followed in the same year on green vinyl with different colored cover. That was the weekend on wdthtc and let's see what's coming up next week, apart from a dentist appointment at 7:00 in the morning, I'm already looking forward to that....

V/A - Happy Birthday, You Sweet Liar! 2025

I guess every one of you, dear followers, has experienced this. You think you know someone well, a lover, a friend, or some other confidant, and then one day everything changes. You are lied to for no reason by this person. And you clearly know it's a lie. Of course, this hurts immensely, and you ask yourself what the reason was? Self-protection, fear of consequences/conflicts, or social conformity/reputation in society? Or do people lie to get rid of someone, to throw away baggage... I don't know. In any case, you are left with ambivalence and have to make a decision whether you want to tolerate this person in your environment any longer or not even look at them again. They always say everyone deserves a second chance, but if you feel like you're being treated disrespectfully and the other person doesn't care at all, well, I'm for a cut, and a breakup is the logical consequence. There are certainly many views, thoughts, and opinions on this, so I came up with the idea of channeling my anger and dismay into music, and this Compilation is meant to help, or at least for the time being. Of course, you can always fall flat on your face, nothing is guaranteed, but when you're 100% being screwed, there's only one option left and I'm tired of crying after such ignorant people. Especially when they say of themselves, "I hate liars". - You see, they have no self-respect, they deceiving their selfs. Anyway, I'll think twice about who I'll give the next bouquet of roses.

Take Care!

V/A - Fahrt Zur Hölle...Und Kommt Nie Mehr Wieder EP 1998

Olalala, what a very nice 7Inch Hardcore/Punk Compilation we have here from the small Aus'm Bauch label which had a total of six releases and I think that's their debut one. You'll hear six fast, trashy goodies from relatively unknown German bands that hit hard, uncompromising, and furiously forward. It comes in a very stylish, informative format, and the title alone is a great choice, giving you a clue as to where this is headed. I have no idea how many pressings there are, but that doesn't matter; anyone who likes fast and furious will be well catered to here. Every band has released something on vinyl, but as I said, it's rather lost and unrecognized in the vast ocean of Punkrock, which is a shame, but it's no different with international records. The EP isn't very sought after, but it's definitely worth a listen.

V/A - Zeven Vijftig 1981

Extremely rare Dutch Punk Compilation, featuring bands from Utrecht and Rotterdam. It sold at the time for 7,50 guilders, and 500 copies were pressed. It came in a soft cover, and was released by Rock Against Records, without a catalogue number. Don't be confused by the cover shown above, which I used to avoid censorship, the original is not suitable to show here, considering the violence and pornography that is available to everyone, this cover is extremely harmless, you know what I mean. Musically a collection of fantastic songs, including some classics, that are only on this slab and come across very entertaining, there are no titles on the album, nor any credits, absolutely D.I.Y. and if you find a copy of this record somewhere, you've hit a small jackpot. Until then, that will have to suffice.

V/A - Punk Lives! Let's Slam 1986

Cool Compilation on Slam Records, a sub label from my favorite label Rot Records, and you know how great their releases are. Simple, informationless presentation and limited to 1000 copies but the selection is always quite good and mostly with bands of which not much vinyl exists, with a few exceptions of course, as is the case on this record. Healthy mix that will take you forty-five minutes of your valuable time but will never get boring. Check in!

V/A - Als Je Haar Maar Goed Zat 1992

Holidays are my favorite days and if I can also get a long weekend, I have time for new posts. Today I start with a great Dutch Compilation by mostly material from unknown bands which you can find on some tapes or other Compis and only a few made it to an LP. The range extends from solid Hardcore to Punk and good Rock. I'd say you take a bowl and season it with all your favorite ingredients, and the result is a unique product. And this record tastes one hundred percent good. Got the picture? Released via WRF Records.

V/A - Get Lost In Vinyl 2025

So friends of good taste, as announced a few days ago, now a new wdthtc Compilation (WDM Records 015). First, I have to tell you that I chose a different title for the story because I'm currently having trouble getting along with a loved one. I want to call it Heaven & Hell, because that describes the situation perfectly. But then I found this amazing cover, and I changed my mind. I asked myself, "Why all this?" Oh, and before I lose myself in endless dimensions again, all I can say is: people are crap! This sounds very metaphysical, but I can't help it. I always have experiences with people like this and fall in love with them. Is it because I'm not a normal guy? Or am I just unlucky? - It remains difficult. To hell with all the negative thoughts, they only disturb and paralyze you. On this nice and likeable CD with thirty catchy dilettantes you have enough freedom to interpret the whole thing yourself and maybe even give it to your loved one. That's what this Compilation was conceived and made for, and who knows what else... I've skipped the thank yous this time, there's no real reason but I just didn't feel like it. And now to the OrangeBeach for a nice beer by the water. Enjoy!

V/A - Berlin Frisbee #02 EP 2002

Second 7Inch Compilation in the small Berlin Frisbee series, released alongside the masterpiece Wenn Kaputt Dann Wir Spass. All of this material is a fascinating piece of divine music that powerfully captures the pulsating energy and creativity of the Berlin underground scene. Upon first listening, I was immediately impressed by the diversity and innovative approach of the tracks included. The compilation offers an exciting mix and reflects the feeling of early, spontaneous basement bands, and each track brings its own character, making the overall listening experience extremely pleasant and varied. It's impressive how diversely the then enclave of Berlin managed to combine its influences while simultaneously presenting its own distinctive style. Many of the songs are not only musically appealing, but also emotionally profound. The lyrics tell stories that range from personal experiences to social issues, and this symbiosis simply sticks in your mind, making listening to this little nostalgic record an intense experience. The recordings are consistently high-quality, and Weird System, as always, has selected the best nuggets. Creative and experimental, Berlin Frisbee #02 is an excellent homage that brings the early Punk rebellion into your home. It's a record I enjoy playing again and again to preserve my identity and be swept away by the energy of the raw sound. 1000 hand numbered copies and an absolute must-have!

V/A - Ei Gude Wie 2015

Back with a local compilation from the beautiful state of Hesse and this beauty features Hessian Cult Hits, that's says the cover but cult isn't the right word, what is cult? There are about 80% good songs on it, that's why I ordered the CD and the Bembel on the front fits our culture and we drink the delicious Äppelwoin out this. My version is called Bloodstains Across Hessen with more Punk material. For me, this thing is not a bad buy, good selection and ideal for tourists. Phew, I'm a bit irradiated and so I'll say goodbye quickly and see you tomorrow, enjoy the music!

V/A - Oi! It's Party Time For... Working Class Kids! #3 EP 1997

Last chapter of this small mini-series called Oi! It's Party Time by the French label One By One Records with four bands, three from the States, one from France. The first act is Bovver 96 from Philadelphia, who released two 7Inches and an album in the Nineties and they give us a fast, snotty number as the opener. Next up is A.O.C. from the Moulins & Yzeure area in France who belt out a decent Oi! Smasher and the song is taken from their first tape Cuvée 1996. A single + a CD decorate their discography. The flip starts with the Suspects from Arlington, and the gents were present in the Nineties with two 7inches and albums, their song for this dittie is taken from the second album New Dawn In The 21st Century and will smash your house like an eclat in the White House. And as fourth in the league Riot Squad from Dallas, originally formed in late 1989 then reformed in 1993 after a break. They have released two albums plus a 7Inch and cassette and round off the EP with a fast, likeable and exclusive blast. Fabulous record!

V/A - Bullshit Detector 1980

An important series that was born in the early Eighties is called Bullshit Detector and it's a collection of Compilations featuring demos which sent to Crass by a variety of bands and were then released on Crass Records and I only know the first three and all came with a cool fold-out poster containing a collage of information, lyrics and artwork to all the bands, and all for a litte bunch of gravel. The sound quality was mixed and often basic, or even poor, as Crass would master the tapes directly to record without any additional production or enhancement. For Crass, the expectation of a polished performance was missing the point. But that's exactly what makes these songs/records worth listening to: Authentic, raw and unpolished, they convey the rebellious, anti-attitude of the Punk spirit and when I listen to these gems today, after more than forty years, I know I did a lot of things right and you won't be able to get rid of this feeling, it will always stay inside of you. Love passes, but Punk never. And the message is still the same as it was then, get off your ass and don't accept everything that stupid society or TV shows you. With this in mind, my friends, I wish you a nostalgic listening pleasure.
