V/A - Hurra For Norge #4 2008

Uncooked, wild, partly unpublished, rough and excellent material also offers the fourth outpouring from Svindel Records, whose mini-series Hurra For Norge takes us deeply into the fantastic Norwegian subculture and shows its diversity with thirty-four blasts from the period 1978-1988. The sound is variable as usual and many bands never saw the inside of a studio, several of the recordings are from live gigs and from rehearsal rooms, but in a good sound quality, I would say. Definitely interesting for all collectors and punkers who like the rare and rough, and those who like to discover new stuff. So friends, that's it for today. I slowly tune myself for the upcoming important match ⚽ against Leverkusen.

V/A - Hurra For Norge #3 2008

I am always enthusiastic about creators, no matter from which country, who dig up rare and hidden treasures and publish them, usually in a series, with a nice artwork, lots of infos and with passion. Svindel Records fulfills with Hurra For Norge all these criteria and unfortunately only on CD (each release would have to be made as a double album but I guess this was discarded for cost reasons) but that's okay with all the good amount of bands/songs, some with singles, others only with demos or live recordings. Volume III is full with Norsk Punk-Rock 1978-88 and if you don't act stupid you will find more volumes. And now off into the weekend!

V/A - Anarki & Kaos #2 2007

"Punk, Råråkk & Aggression - Archaeological excavations from the Norwegian underground 1978-1981", so briefly about the content of the second Anarki & Kaos compilation from Voices Of Wonder Records and this Silberling is full with rarities and classics. Comes in a decent artwork with much infos, but I don't understand why nobody came up with the idea to translate the whole thing into English... but with a short video which is apparently without sound, hmmmm.... frankly, I can't see any sense in it. Well, somehow I think this CD shouldn't go beyond Norway and is certainly very interesting for locals, but let's be not so critical; Fakt is: together with Volume 1, both provide an excellent insight of the subculture by this country of the early wild years.. Unfortunately only as CD available, but essential for all KBD friends... choose an indispensable listening experience!

V/A - Hurra For Norge 2007

Hurra For Norge is a damn good series from Svindel Records and they compiled rare goodies from original live/demo tapes and vinyl of early norway punk, mostly in an edition of 500 copies. Overall, there are five issues released and all are outstanding and lovingly designed with all infos about the recordings/bands. I have four of them only this one not so I am very pleased that the Network Of Friends is intact. The artwork is unfortunately not there, maybe anyone send this in. Musically a punk firework with massive hits and further volumes will follow, guaranteed.

V/A - Sjokk Rock 1980

Recorded at Høvikodden June 1980 comes this rare Mini-LP with eight live tracks from the créme de la créme of norwegian punk rock. I've been searchin' a fuckin' long time to hear this record and now contributed by Mister "classic stuff" Fredrik (Skål!). All tunes came along in an awesome sound quality and it starts with with a torpedo from Kjøtt, followed by a band called 1984 which says nothing to me but this tracks kicks arse, holy shit, next my absolute favourite band: Hærverk from Oslo and this tune is a killer like the songs from their only EP 'Stengt Pga Hærverk', I think their live tape would also great. With Blaupunkt & Oslo Børs comes again two '77 style tracks which I would have definitely taken on tape if I do one. Next, (Psykedeliske) Tystere, unknown to me and the track takes the fast pace out of here and goes a little in the rock section with a touch of small swing elements, not bad, then Babij Jar and they are ugly rockin' with a long solo guitar ala Jimi Hendrix (the worst track here) and at last a surfin' influenced track with a fuzzy guitar and a nice tempo from The Aller Værste. All in all a fantastic record which has convinced me with their fully rough & wild live sound.

V/A - Break The Rules #8 1997

One more fuckin' awesome punk compilation with old farts now. Splitting from his partnership with Incognito Records, Peter P., who compiled the Back To Front compilations, started his own label, Insekten Records, to put out his new series, Break the Rules. The series picks up where Back To Front left off (with #7). This, like the others, is s greaat mix of early rough-edged punk as well as punk with a poppier edge. And like his other comps here is Volume #9), he's have the permission from the bands to use these songs. Like the KBD or Bloodstains series: this LP is a killer! Get it yet and good Morning!

OSLO BØRS - 3 Spor + 1 EP 1979

Norway, the land of icebergs and Vikings, up in the ice cold north there is was small scene with bands like KJOTT, HÆRVERK, OSLO BØRS, who were classic '77 styled. This awesome EP comes in a gatefold sleeve and pressed with a small center hole. Estimated to be limited to 500 copies and mainly distributed in Norway. The band's name is translated as "Oslo Stock Exchange". And again I must say this is unfortunately the only publication from this classic band. I add in this file one more 7inch, Simply Brilliant!!!

V/A - Anarki & Kaos: Norsk Punk '79-'81

 

Overall this compilation is fuckin' impressing. Eighteen KBD killer tracks from Norwegian punk bands from the early days and what should i still continue to write? Each song is a gem and for all lovers of snotty and short songs an absolutly MUST! If you don't get this you must definitiv listen to another style of punkrock, hahaha.. - This LP is originally issued 1992 at Voices Of Wonder Records and reissued 2007 with two bonus tracks. This file comes with the original booklet, all artwork, in a high qualtiy sound and now: "Fire!" for 45 minutes of awesome music.

NOREGS PUNKLAG - Jeg Sitter Bare Her Og Kjeder Meg 7'' 1978

Depending on what you call Punk, this might be the first vinyl-offer in Punk from Norway (along with SUBWAY SUCK) back from 1977-78. While this is more light-weight compared to the bit later releases by Kjøtt, OSLO BØRS and Hærverk it had already the Punk-Wave touch and strong rock elements added to round up the whole (the usual thing with bands that claimed Punk but mostly in the fashion-sense of word). 'Du Er Eit Svin' (it could be anything but YOU ARE A SWINE translated) is a remake of 'God Save The Queen' approaching slightly the ineptitude sort of Punk/Rock. The B-side, (translated 'I'm Just Sitting Here Bored') possibly a WHO remake, is less appealing but not totally different to the 1st song. The singer, as legions back then, carbon-copies Johnny Rotten despite being on a bigger label. It's hard to get, maybe also 'cos one member is often seen in the Norwegian TV these days? Nice paper-bag sleeve, too.
