After their great debut 'Amor Frenopatico' Commando 9mm planted with their second album one more fantastic record with fourteen excellent tracks via La General in the in the fruity soil of the underground. Commando 9mm is the result of two other groups which dissolved in 1984, La Uvi and Larsen. They began to play in a place on Embajadores and composed first songs. In 1985 they won the 3rd prize in the 8th edition of the Rock Villa Trophy in Madrid and the town hall produced a single Odio En Sudamérica. The start was done and they were very successful and to date five albums were recorded and sometime in 2002 the band broke up. Represented on some compilations, two of that are the ingenious Viva La Punk slabs.. with this sound into the weekend!

COMMANDO 9mm - Amor Frenopático 1986
Great debut by Commando 9mm from Madrid. Formed by two other groups which dissolved in 1984. On the one hand, Manolo (vocals/bass), member of La Uvi, and El Pollo (guitars) & El Mosca (drums) from Larsen. They began to play in a venue on Calle De Embajadores. In this place they composed their first songs and in 1985 they won the third prize in the VIII edition of the Rock Villa Trophy in Madrid and the city council releases their first 7Inch Odio En Sudamérica via Ayuntamiento De Madrid which is pretty extraordinary, I think. The album shows the bands energy and the songs are powerful and present their musical arguments. They did it solidly based on the forcefulness that came from the second line, the one that the drummer usually occupies on stage, Pollo's implacable manner on the guitar and Manolo's personal voice, almost the only possible one, one would say, for the sound of Commando 9mm. Ramonian punk-rock, resounding songs with a clear vocation for entertainment. Musically, the group's first album was mainly marked by The Professionals, the post Sex Pistols combo. Amor Frenopático was released via La General, a subsidiary of Fonomusic and the first change of the drums takes place, entering Jesús Bracero in substitution of El Mosca. Jesús recorded the drums on side A, while El Mosca recorded the other half. Spirited and expressive songs from one of my favorite bands from Spain and whose power is further refined in the following albums. - 1:1 yesterday was okay, will be difficult in Barcelona.

COMMANDO 9MM - Commando 1990
Before football starts a visit a short visit to the Iberian peninsula. Their third album, simply titled Commando, was recorded in 1989 and come out at independent label called Tirana, owned by band manager Pito. In 1990, the CBS label was interested and published the same year the album with terrible consequences for the group, as Sony bought CBS and restructured the entire business, discarding everything that they were not interested. This album is currently out of print and very hard to find (discogs/ebay more than €140,-!!!!), because the record had a bad distribution. This fact and cause internal disagreements the band first split in 1991. This shows once more that the major labels are only profit oriented and thus the artist into a corner. Fuck Them!!! But apart from these asses Commando 9MM have ignited with their third longplayer another atomic bomb. Already their debut Amor Frenopatico from 1986 lit at first time, tiptop melodic mid-tempo punk rock as I like and always listen in my car... wonderfully soothing. As well here appear eleven more pearls in this direction which I like almost better. The sound is better by miles and the goodies sound more mature. 'Camino Hacia La Ruina', 'Annie, Annie', 'Cuidado Con Los Lunes' or 'Chica Medicinal', 'Mi Amigo Jack' are songs for eternity and while I write these lines the record goes through for the third time. 100% addictive, honest! If this music's not infect you, you are definitely disturbed. Would be interested what you think. Salut!

COMMANDO 9MM - Odio En Sudamérica 7'' 1985
This is my Spanish favourite band: Commando 9mm,founded in 1983 by Jose L. Rodríguez (guitar), El Mosca (drums), and Manolo Quevedo (bass+vocals) and this is their debut 7Inch on Ayuntamiento De Madrid with two goodies. Very fat stuff and simply extreme good. They made three albums and all are fantastic, I posted two on my former blog and one day here again. I'm too lazy to write more, I think I've said it all. A must have!

V/A - A Small Retrosperspective (Live!) 2019
Ein neues Produkt aus dem Hause WDM Records und da April ausschließlich Live Postis gewidmet ist wuchs die Idee einer superben compilation mit solchen Aufnahmen die ich hier und da fand oder auf meiner Festplatte schlummerten. Bevorzugt mit Bands die ich teilweise erlebt habe und ich besonders gern auflege. Ich glaube das Ergebnis kann sich hören und sehen lassen und besonders das Artwork alter Eintrittskarten schwirrte mir seit langem im Kopf herum, das hat eine Menge fantastischer Erinnerungen hervor gerufen, schön war's! Ich wünsche Euch jetzt abwechslungsreichen Hörgenuß mit diesem kleinen Rückblick.
A new product from WDM Records and because April is dedicated to Live posts grew the idea of a superb compilation with recordings that I found here and there or slumbered on my hard disk. Preferably with bands that I have partially experienced and I often put on my turntable. I think the result can be heard and seen, and especially the artwork of old tickets has been buzzing in my mind for a long time, it has brought back a lot of fantastic memories, it was nice! I wish you a varied listening pleasure with this small retrosperspective.

LARSEN - No! EP 1983
Larsen were from Madrid and were one of the pioneers of Punkrock in Spain, with a lot of influences of postpunk bands like Joy Division. Emerge in 1980 in Madrid were Monje on vocals, Pollo (guitars), Rana (bass) and Mosca (drums). Monje's distinctive voice quickly becomes a renowned group of Movida particularly through their song "The French Border." In 1982, Monje left the group, becoming a trio until 1984, when Chema joined as new singer. In the spring of 1985 the group eventually disbanded and Pollo and Mosca, along with components of the ICU, formed another Punk band called Commando 9mm, perhaps the most long-lived punk band from Spain.

LARSEN - Requiem 7'' 1984
Madrid based combo Larsen released their first EP No! via Spansuls Records and is fantastic four track record but the stars ain't stood good for them. After the release Monje (vocals/guitar) left and from then they continued as trio and José, a friend of the band, took over the mic. More info from discogs: With Chema on vocals they recorded two sessions, but the recordings were never released. The first sessions were initially planned for an LP, and what was going to be its first single Requiem was released in 1984. But the Spanish label Spansuls Records never paid to the studio for the sessions, so they confiscated the master tapes and the LP was forgotten. The second sessions took place in Winter of 1984, this time paid by the band members. Unfortunatelly for the band, no label was interested in releasing the material, so the tapes were stored and forgotten until some of the material was finally released in 2001 as Larsen by Potencial Hardcore. After that, Pollo & Mosca started rehearsing with Manolo from La Uvi and Commando 9mm was formed. Sortly after that the two musicians started focusing on C9mm and Larsen was finally forgotten and in early 1985 the group disbanded. Both EP's were put together on CD called Vomitas Sangre and came out by Radikal 1977 Records in 2002.
