V/A - Bored Teenagers Vol.7 2014

Once again an infernal bang from the Bored Teenagers series with twenty-eight Great British Punk Originals 1977-1982 and who exactly ignites the explosions follows now:

"This volume kicks off with THE SINGLES who were from the Rochdale area and released one of the rarest UK Punk 45s back in 1978 with the controversial title of ‘Adolf Hitler. The song is about a German soldier who is the trenches and questions his belief and why he is here! The next two tracks are by IN THE GYM with two tracks taken from the incredible rare single from 1981. This band hailed from Kidderminster and this was their one and only 7Inch. Following on with the KATZ from Swindon with two tracks taken of their extremely rare 7Inch from ‘79, plus six unreleased tracks on the CD version. Next band to grace your speakers are from our very own Capital CHAOS UK with two super snotty punksters. This was the bands one and only 7Inch release before re-surfacing as the Mandies. Our next stop is Birmingham with two ultra rare absolute gems from THE HOBBS. Collectors around with world will be familiar with this band as they release Bop Around The Shop on the ‘Big’ label in 1978 but did you know that they had an aborted single that they recorded a year earlier for the ‘DJM’ label? Sadly these tracks never came out as the band were dropped in favour to the Satan Rats’. You are gonna be in for a treat with these two blasts….. Now comes THE WHAT?, hailing from South Humberside who released a killer little 3-Track EP in 1979 that includes the anthem East Coast Kids! Now we are heading all the way down to Cornwall to THE VENDETTAS, who trod all the Cornish music haunts throughout 1977 and called it a day in 1978.... great rough stuff that will stick in yer head and you’ll find you're self singing the lyrics without knowing it! The next two tracks that come blaring at you are from our front cover stars SKIDMARX. Hailing from Carlisle and relocating to South London and then Brighton. The last band to be featured are SYSTEM X from Enfield in North London. In their lifetime they offer no vinyl output but did record five tracks, all can be heard in their full glory on the CD version."

V/A - British Underground 1977-1982 Vol.2

There are days I really like to sit at the computer and postin' some rare stuff, today is such a day, and let's come to the last cream on this coldy Sunday and it's an unoffical compilation from Chaos Wrecords, released in an edition of 700 hand-numbered copies (I think in 1994) and this fourteen British Underground pieces are certainly not the best of UK punk & wave goodies (in my opinion) but it's another piece of countless bootlegs (it's good that they exist) and the song selection is not bad. I cannot say how I came across this series but it was worth and I bought this record via ebay. I love English punk and with the Disco Zombies and Crisis are two of my favorite bands on it, so bring it on. Of course required Volume 1 and a total of three slabs of this mini-serie were released to date and the last one follows then in 2022. Now enjoy the rest weekend with beautiful music, cold beer and other intoxicating means + the sun.

3.Time Tunnel - ENGLISH SUBTITLES

4.Active Repetition - PRODUCT OF REASON

V/A - British Underground 1977-1982

Subtitled as the Best of the UK Punk New Wave. Well, this lies in the eye of the beholder or? Anyway, this small flame is the first Volume of this Mini-Serie and this unofficial release was comin' out on Chaos Wrecords in 1982 and it's full with a decent mix of both music styles. I realize there are a lot of UK comps and this is of course for me great, I love the early UK sound and I'm always fascinate when I get a copy of a record which is brand new, even when I know the songs. Minus points for the loveless design, no inserts, no info. So check the following orange button for details. Was bleibt?, a decent platte with cool and varied stuff. But € 50,- I wouldn't pay for. Have fun with this, Aloha!!

4.Adult/ery - THE SCARS
