V/A - Killed By Dentistry #1 2000

From me a very long sought piece of vinyl and now I can finally put it from my Wanted List, the rarest KBD compilation around and this awesome record was pressed in an edition of 200 copies with only bands from the English language area of our beautiful planet. Each copy had a  unique "blood" splattered cover and if you believe the rumors outside a crazy dentist have fabricated this one. I think it rather less but perhaps comes a judge or astronaut to the same idea. A damn cool selection of some well know songs and obscure scree provide absolute listening pleasure. So the weekend can begin.

V/A - Rip Shit Or Bust! 12'' 1983

A fine little 12inch from Kiwi territory with six guns on it, released via Ripper Records. A small selection of songs that have already been released as singles and today are rare and expensive. The Instigators track stands a bit out here: perfect driving mid-tempo punk with female vocals and saxophone (this is more in the background) and good lyrics, rulez like hell. Overall a great little compilation which brings fifteen minutes of joy!

1.Short Haired Rock'n'Roll - TERRORWAYS
2.Getting Jumpy - ANDROIDSS
3.Reena's Piss Flaps - SPELLING MISTAKES
4.Hope She's Alright - INSTIGATORS
5.Can't Take It - SCREAMING MEE MEES
6.Police Wheels - PRIMMERS

V/A - Killed By Death #69 1997

Hui, I'm in a small beer inebriation and my body screams for food. OK, here's musical food with another superb bootleg compilation from the Killed By Death series. "Hey you proud punkrock scum, what we offer you is international punkrock cause it's better.", so starts the liner notes on the back cover and Yeah, this writer's not wrong. This record contains both sides of rare original 7inches from the early wild days and kicks your fuckin' brain out, pressed in 500 copies. The makers have once again ensured that the KBD series are one of the best of all time, as well as a football World Cup. No failure, only hits, no complaints. This record is one of the rarest KBD albums and disappeared very quickly, good luck to find a copy.

V/A - It's Bigger Than Both Of Us 2 LP 1988

Excellent kiwi release of this essential two record compilation from 1988 covering an extremely creative and buoyant period of New Zealand alternative/punk & pop music between 1979 - 1982 where music of the more "indie" nature really made an impression on the hearts, minds and souls of legions of real music maniacs. So the thirty tracks we get great hits from the likes of The Spelling Mistakes, The Clean, Screaming Meemees, No Tag, Blam Blam Blam, Proud Scum and more other great bands and a number of lesser known but equally thrilling out fits. Lovingly compiled and basing the set purely around singles really gives the listener a feel for the time and era, and a number of these tracks genuinely shaped the sound of New Zealand underground music for many years to come. Even with the current renaissance in 'historical' New Zealand pop compilations this set stands head and shoulders above the rest simply because of its focus and the era covered. This is an essential purchase for any New Zealand music fan.
