V/A - Suomi-Ilmiö 1981

Now a rather unknown compilation that saw the light of day on Polarvox as cassette and vinyl in the early eighties and what do we discover? A decent mix of sixteen Finnish bands, whose spectrum ranges from punk, rock, new wave & powerpop and transports really good vibrations for my taste, including some classics from well-known bands such as Hassisen Kone, Ratsia or Vaavi and other likeable contemporaries (a little side note, song #13 from the Lizards is missing, I don't know how and where I lost it, if someone has it please send). As is "usual" with some Finnish samplers, apart from the relevant Punk/Hardcore records, I'm almost always convinced by the flexibility and mix of the different music styles which make such records mostly interesting for me and of course, the shot can backfire and the whole thing is a disaster, but not here. This slab is fun and relaxes your body like an escaping fart. Unfortunately no booklet, lyric sheet or other information attached, just a few details on the back cover but with an eye-catcher frontgirl (Yeah, a sexy pearl). That's it for today, enjoy the music and the sun!

LOOSE PRICK - Mua Potkitaan Päähän 7'' 1979

Loose Prick was formed fall 1977 in Kouvola by Pauli (vocals), Jussi (guitar), Harri (bass), Timo (drums) and existed for five years. Their debut 7'' was recorded February 5th 1979 @ the Microvox studios and released via the essential Poko Rekords label. Both songs are written by guitarist Kylliäinen, and they a pretty good. I'm in a hurry so reach more info about Loose Prick via the Valkoiset Sotilaat album post or visit finnmusic for the full bio.

V/A - Bloodstains Across Finland 1996

I dedicate my bloody nightmares the right soundtrack with this compilaion of rare Finnish punk singles (1977-1979) and nothing is more unpleasant to them. With twenty-three essential punk rock blasts I arm myself for the fight against the everyday demons, throw the razor-sharp 7Inches at them and cut their heads off, nobody can hide... I find all of you and after almost forty-five minutes, I'm the winner, Yeah! You think tomorrow will be better for you? Never, because I have the best weapon: Punkrock!! - No matter what you do, it will always end the same. You must know: 500 copies pressed on black vinyl and on some copies one side of label is completely white, while the other side is black. Amen!

LOOSE PRICK - Valkoiset Sotilaat 1980

Four middle-class kids and the magical year of 1977. Three, a maximum of four chords. Ring skill is not named, but the attitude even more. Badges can not be wrong, Loose Prick were born. This first album (called 'The White Soldiers') was recorded after midsummer in 1980. Self-produced, thirteen classic songs in five days. That's what I call PunkRock.. what do you think? Read the full bio on the great finnmusic page.

V/A - Hilse 1979

The Hilse record was the first Finnish punk compilation and it really has all the important punk bands of the late 70's on it. A LP that everyone should have in your record collection. There are many simple reasons, the song 'Just Like Eddy, I Hate Teddy' from KOHU-63 is awesome, 'Ketään Ei Kiinnosta Mitään' by Pelle Miljoona 1980 is crazy & weird, the Beatles cover (Sensuuri), Briard & Ratsia tracks are killers etc. etc....all eighteen songs rock decently how we all like & know Finnish PunkRock (this is the CD version with eleven goodies from Hilse II). Enjoy!!!!
