V/A - 10 Meter Ohne Kopf 1991

An absolute must have is the international live compilation in the Störtebeker, a location of the occupied houses in Hamburg Hafenstraße which where recorded between the years 1987-1991, released via Fishcore & Buback Tonträger. An interesting mix of top-class, predominantly European bands that have been there, each chosen by one song. The sound quality is excellent and the composition is quite brilliant. Hardcore, punk and a little metal (Erosion) have popped up to your deaf ears and the presentation in gatefold sleeve, with a forty-four page booklet about the squats at the Hafenstraße inside is also nice (but not scanned, I'm too lazy). Cult stuff and I can promise you that this is worth the download. Brilliant live shit!!!

ZERO POINT - Hooligans With Cheap Guitars 2006

Putting Denmark on the map with Zero Point, they were formed 1979 in Århus, but it all started a long time before that and is one of Denmark’s oldest and longest running Punk-Rock bands. The band was originally formed by Henrik Lund and Steen Thomsen and has been through several line-up changes since then. After releasing two EP's, a ten song tape and some compilation stuff, plus recorded some studio takes there never got a proper release and playin' more than 200 gigs (after that they lost count), among them gigs in England, Germany, Spain and Norway, the band called it a day and split in 1987. In 2002 Steen reformed the band and in the official program for 2002's “Holidays In The Sun” Festival in England they where voted among “THE BEST PUNK/Oi! BANDS IN THE WORLD EVER”!!! In 2003 they did their “comeback” gig at the Antifest in the Czech Republic in front of a 5000 + crowd. Since then they have played the Punk-Aid Festival 2004 in the U.K., the WASTED Festival 2005 in the Netherlands, done gigs with bands like The Toy Dolls, D.R.I. and been headlining their own 25 Years Anniversary gigs in Denmark (supported by very special guests: FOREIGN LEGION from the U.K.). This compilation contains all the 1979-1987 releases and recordings.

THE RAVEONETTES - Hollywood, 24.01.2009

Amazing live bootleg by this great combo in a brilliant quality. The Raveonettes are a Danish Rock 'N' Roll duo consisting of Sune Rose Wagner on guitar, instrumentation and vocals, former head of the grunge band Psyched Up Janis and Sharin Foo (on bass and vocals). Their music is characterized by close two-part vocal harmonies, coupled with hard-edged electric guitar overlaid with liberal doses of noise. Their songs juxtapose the structural and chordal simplicity of 50's and 60's rock with intense electric instrumentation, driving beats and often dark lyrical content. The duo met in Copenhagen and began recording "Whip It On", on which they handled all production chores by themselves. Adding guitarist Manoj Ramdas and jazz drummer Jakob Hoyer, the Raveonettes booked one of their first gigs at the SPOT festival in Århus, the second largest city in Denmark. "Whip It On" was elected "Best Rock Album of the Year" at the Danish Music Awards 2003, and The Raveonettes were picked as being among the harbingers of the "Next Wave" of contemporary music. The band is incidentally very big fans of Fender instruments. The song selection is an excellent cross-section of their albums which I can only highly recommend you to buy their stuff .So enjoy this rare piece of harmonic sound right now.

PSYCHED UP JANIS - Beats Me 1997

Brrr, Rain outside and I'm not really in the mood to go out. I guess this becomes a train day....Fuck! - Well, first another pearl of music history. Certainly it's already known to everyone in blogland that I give preference to Scandinavian punk and find their sound more interesting than some UK/US band. About Psyched Up Janis I will not write much, you can read it for  yourself. They are very popular in Denmark, possibly in the UK (most of their albums were recorded there) but that was it. This band deserves, in my opinion, more attention. Even with this album (their second) prove Sune, Jacob and drummer Jesper they are gifted musicians and write melodic hard songs which piss forward. In between a few melancholy ballads and the sun shines again in Denmark. If someone didn't know a note by this fuckin' awesome band then quickly change that situation.

FRESHLY RIOTS - Hope 1984

Freshly Riots was a Danish punk and post-punk band from Himmerland and formed in Gedsted in October 1981. Their first release is the raw and wild Delightfully Fresh EP which came out in 1983 via Bondeskiver. In late August 1983 Jørn went out and was replaced on guitar by Lars Gosta. Two months later goes Freshly Riots in ARP studio and recorded its first album Hope. Again you have Claus from Johnny and the Cold Demons helps to assist in production. In aninterview in Danish Sam shortly before release, Bo explains that the record title is about though group members are pessimists, they have still some hope left. Hope was released again on Bondeskiver in May 1984. In the period around the publication of Hope Bo moves to Aalborg and goes out of the group, the vowel is then taken over by Mike. In May, sends Bond discs capture plate Complication, here contributes Freshly Riots with the two numbers A Fall and Infantry. After releasing this awesome record the band have change their name to Freshly and Lars goes out of the group what causes the Freshly end of the year gives a concert at the Youth House as a trio without guitar. Freshly are contacted by the English label Rot Records, inviting them to contribute to a compilation tape. That is why the group in January 1985 again in ARP studio and record the two tracks Fry and Born Under Stars to collect. The numbers are however in April also released on a cassette of the Bond discs. Lars is now again become a part of Freshly and in July they played at Roskilde Festival.

Freshly dissolved finally in May 1989 when Mike and Michael moved to Århus. Brilliant Album!!!

SODS - Minutes To Go 1979

One of the best punk rock record and in my personal top ten at number three: Minutes To Go, the brilliant debut album released by Danish Punx SODS (later named Sort Sol). It was released in 1979 and is often referred to as Denmark's first punk album. I bought the CD in 1997 at my vacation in Denmark in a very cool record-store in Odense called Moby-Disc Records, I saw this and without any doubt I bought this little piece, even with six bonus songs. Costs me 130 danish crowns which was a lot of money. But it was all worth!! Scandinavian Punk at its best (today we call it KBD), right up my alley and brings back lots of good memories.

O.H.M. - Cavecore EP 1986

Cavecore records present O.H.M. (Okkulte Hule Mystikere) with four trashy hardcore punkies. Probably founded in Copenhagen and they're a pretty unknown band so I can't say nothin' about further activities. They were present on a few compilations, the well known is sure the Attack Is Now Suicide record from Double A Records. Musically bit chaotic with heavy distorted guitars, two minute songs, all in beautiful Danish, raw and obscure and not so tiring you know. Overall, a solid EP and the four know how to thrash. Cool!!!

V/A - Something Is Wrong 1989

Another sampler which I hereby want to put again into your hearts is this rare one with bands from Europe, most coming from Germany. Kina, Wut and L.U.L.L. are bands you might know and most of all tracks have been published only here. Musically, like the album title suggests, a good mix between Hardcore & Punk as you would expect from these bands, lyrically most songs handle about on violence against women which is usually a taboo topic and in my opinion is condemned much too flaccid, also suitable for this purpose the great cover artwork. Even though this compilation is not among to the top publications, but the record is still very successful and receives my highest rating. 

1.Krieg Gegen Frauen - WUT 

2.My Best Friend - TOSHIMOTO DOLLS 

3.Troppo Lontano - KINA 

4.For You - L.U.L.L. 

5.Friend, Keep On - SCHWARZE FEUER 

6.Brutal Scenes... - ANTI-TOXIN 

7.Nicaracoca-Cola - HALLE 54 

8.Fly Or Die - DUNKLE TAGE 

9.Eigene Hölle - WUT 

10.Vacilando - TOSHIMOTO DOLLS 

11.E Intanto - KINA 

12.Heaven Is Grey - SCHWARZE FEUER

BRATS - The Lost Tapes 1979

Freshly regenerated and full steam ahead into the blog business with this hot record. The Lost Tapes is exactly what it is, lost recordings of this old danish punk band and this rare piece of vinyl was released in 2008, which was actually their first album, but was never released before and there only classics on it. Brats were from Copenhagen and formed in 1977 as a punk band. Original line-up featured Hank Shermann (real name Rene Krolmark, at that time known as Hank de Wank) on guitar, vocalist Franz De Zaster, drummer Eddie Haircut and bassist Mickey Rat. After recording songs for danish Pære Punk compilation, the band split up in 1979, not much later reforming as a heavy metal band with new members. So this album is one of my all time faves and if you listen to you know why.

V/A - Nobody's Perfect EP 1986

One more rare record from my Wanted-List now. The first issue was released as Lasta-EP II by ST-Records in 1984 with different artwork and this here two years later on Leukemia Records. Musically, we are in Europe (except Bill Of Rights) and approaching a slightly aggressive sound that we all know as punkrock. I think the band names speak for themselves and every song is a typical representative of this genre: loud + rough + snappy! Each band puke in their natural language which I always enjoy, even if I don't understand a word. Four mid-tempo goodies and three short rapid heart attacks, what you want more? Probably appeared in small editions and hard to find... pull now!

1.I Miei Occhi - STIGMATHE

2.The Frontline - ZERO POINT

3.Efialtis - ADIEXODO

4.Paranoja - OPDAKI CIVILIZACIJE

NRG - Aber Mein Liebchen 12'' 1986

This rare record is really amazing and I like it a lot. Very hard to find because it was pressed in a small editon. Here we have five strong punk tunes mixed in a catchy wavie sound plus the wild voice. Two 4 minute tunes, three short stirring tracks. Excellent!! Here's some info from their MySpace site: "Danish punk band NRG was formed in 1981 in the Copenhagen suburb Albertslund and existed until 1989. Their music evolved along the way from '76 punk and hardcore over free form avantgarde to a sort of paisley underground garage rock. They released the single Kulturel Forvaltning in 1984 and the mini-album 'Aber Mein Liebchen' (Hub Records) in 1986. Through all the years the band consisted of Kim Ingemann (guitar & vocals) and Claus Lindhardt (drums). Their line up was concluded with, in 1981-83: Erik Vosbein (bass) and Uffe Ejlerskov (guitar). In 1983-84: Uffe Ejlerskov (bass). In 1984-85: Soren Poulsen (bass) and Henning Malm (trumpet and garbagecans). In 1985-86: Uffe Ejlerskov (bass). In 1986: Emma Engberg (bass) and Lars Bjerr (guitar). In 1987-88: Henrik Geertz (bass). In 1988-89: Emma Engberg (bass) and Henrik Geertz (guitar). NRG moved base to Copenhagen in 1984 and performed regularly in the squatters' house Ungdomshuset and in the main rock club at the time, Barbue. NRG toured the main cities of Denmark and in Sweden, Russia and Uzbekistan. During 1990-1994 Kim and Claus rehearsed new material but performed only twice under the new moniker Shoom. In 1996 they had evolved into the project Shoom Unit". NRG can be found on Killed By Death #22 (coming soon) compilation. Don't hesitate to get this cool plate.

V/A - Springtime In Belsen 1998

Today is compilation day and the next record is a Bootleg in the vein of KBD. Eighteen early worldwide punkrock goodies here and I must say most of the songs can be find on the legendary Killed By Death records so therefore, in my opinion, this plate is not really essential. I mean, if you should you see this for a decent price then take it, no question about it but not for horror totals as it circulates currently. Ach scheiß was drauf, I have an extreme hangover from yesterday's gig and realize again that I'm not getting younger, haha.. Your old sacks of you know what I mean. Well, the sound here is cool, the song selection is okay and a small step into the weekend. I guess, I hang around for awhile at home today and relax with my technique shit. Good Night!

MONOMANIA - I'm Weird 7'' 1979

Ultra-rare Danish weirdo punk stuff from 1979 on Better Day Records. From the Danish Wikipedia site: “Monomania (also known as Mono Mania, ca. 1979-80) was a Danish experimental pop-punk/rock band consisting of members Peter Peter (guitar, vocals, also including Sods and Sort Sol), Pussy Punk (vocal, aka Kate Svanholm, also in Sofamania and Lost Kids), Eddie Haircut (drums, aka Milan Balsgaard, including Brats and Elektrochok), Vicious Decay (Ann-Christine Gløet, Elektrochok) and Sniff Høkerberg (bass, also in Brats and Support).” All those mentioned bands you can visit on the awesome Bloodstains Across Denmark Compilation. The title track is a pretty strange monotonic sound confusion which makes you listen to after a long period absolutely crazy, between in continuous intervals a 'I'm weird' and the gear into the mental hospital is safe, the flip is a short electro KBD number which is also crazy and fuckin' brilliant. This is damn good stuff and a rare bastard of a record.

GORILLA ANGREB - @ WFMU Radio 14.03.2006

Gorilla Angreb was a punk band from Copenhagen, Denmark, stripped down to dueling male and female voices and hit-hard instruments. 12 Songs contains this amazing bootleg of catchy, whip-cracking punk rock. Gorilla Angreb exist from 1999 - 2007. Unfortunately, far too short in my opinion. Catch this unique document in an amazing sound quality. Get the full Gorilla Angreb Discography on DU. Big fat thanks to the ripper of this nice one.

V/A - Killed By Death #3 1989

Oopss, I opened up the second beer now and holy shit it tastes good again, especially early in the morning, life's a fuckin' bitch (rülps). So now welcome to the wonderful world of punk rock dear followers. Yet another mindboggling of rare '70/'80s obnoxicusness is now to be prevailing on your turntable, sending the sound of righteousnoss out of the speakers and into your heart. And an all star cast is it. A decent follow-up to the amazing #2. A classic in far too many ways to even take a stab at here. Some great tracks and the rest worthwhile, except the John Berenzy track which is unnecessary. First pressing (700 copies) on black vinyl with yellow and black labels. Reissue is on blue vinyl and has the same songs as the original. Fuck!, this is an further awesome release which shows how great the early punk scene worldwide was. All scans include, more words...not really.

HJERTESTOP - Åårh Fuck..Det Er HjerteStop! EP 2005

Copenhagen's Hjertestop is another amazing fast european punk band making a name for itself through putting out kick-ass singles and playing as many shows as possible. They're reminiscent of label mates Amdi Petersens Armé. This six-song EP is a magnum opus, and has enough US distribution that no self-respecting fan of fast hardcore can make excuses for not picking it up. Enjoy this EP....it's great.

CITY-X - Elektriske Svin 2004

HanseQrt, Lars Grønning and Gert Oestrich were with City-X one of the early '80s most memorable Danish punk bands. They borrowed fire from bands like the Sex Pistols and The Clash, and carried the torch forward at the Copenhagen stone bridge. The nubile boys pointed mocking fingers at those in power with chants like "Police/Military" and "Mutual Dependence." The rebellious texts were part of the group's activist involvement in future youth - they were always with their audience on the barricades before and after the concerts. This is a collection of City X's provocative and aggressive punk songs were compiled in 2001 in Electrical pigs, and the band has recently played protest concert in connection with the demolition of the Youth Center. With City-X, you can experience the atmosphere of 80's punk and squatter scene and get an idea of why the message is still relevant. 29 great early 80's danish material ran from catchy hook laden punk to fast powerful hardcore.

PSYCHED UP JANIS - I Died In My Teens EP 1995

Psyched Up Janis was a Danish rock band started by Sune Rose Wagner, now a member of The Raveonettes, Martin Bjerregaard, and Jakob Jørgensen. They played their first concert in Sønderborg under the name of Western Front, in 1989. Psyched Up Janis recorded their first demo entitled I Never Change in 1992. That year, the band moved to Copenhagen and Martin Bjerregaard joined the band as drummer. The trio went to Sweden to record the first, self-financed, record, I Died In My Teens. The song by the same name made Single of the Week in Kerrang! This EP is very rare and is one of pure class which supplies you with solidlinks, steady bass riffs, obsurd lyrics and excellent music. A band that not many people have heard of. So get it right now.
