V/A - Illegal By Choice EP 2011

Shit, it's so fuckin' cold and I have a big big hangover, bbrrrrrrrr.... - so the right time to stay at home and post some awesome records. Next one is created in collaboration with Punk Illegal and the No one is Illegal Network (Ingen människa är illegal) and this ear-splitting benefit compilation for hidden refugees comes out by De:Nihil Records and you should be warned! 6 Bands, three countries are here on it and all tracks are previously unreleased. All loud as hell and with the aim to raise as much money as possible to the No one is Illegal Network and their work for a world without borders. Well, I have a different opinion about it.... all songs are great songs and a very well done record.

1.Trapped - VICTIMS
2.Du Kan Inte Vinna - KVOTERINGEN
3.Odio - DEMENZIA KOLEKTIVA

V/A - Soundtracks Zum Untergang 2 1982

One of the best compilations ever from Germany are the first two AGR goodies. All bands are great, all songs are damn classics. With these both I grew up. The music is just sensational and the lyrics quite offensive, creating real doom mood. I don't know how often this sound shows me that I'm on the right track (haha) and I mean together with the 'Keine Experimente' compilations from Weird system are these four records the most important and best plates which were ever published here in fuckin' germoney. I think the resonance overseas was accordingly positive. Today this record is re-released but the band name from the Böhse Onkelz was deleted... pitiful if you ask me, but that's another story. 19 glamorous tracks from the good old days and incidentally a request of a good friend is fulfilled. GET IT!!!

V/A - Killed By Death #20 1998

Another Killed By Death round is opened and again with tons of early rare international punkrock blasts. 700 copies were pressed on black vinyl with plain pink labels and a few on pink vinyl with white labels and full liner-notes on the back. A damn hot good LP of previously uncompiled material. Nothing too crappy here. I guess all those Cads EP's people couldn't trade or sell before will suddenly be hot items. The idea of taking good tracks from compilation LP's full of otherwise uninteresting material is a good one. That should be good for a few more KBD volumes [half text stolen :>]!!!!

V/A - Made In Britain 1980

I'm too lazy to write, only this: all songs here are great, awesome wave/punk songs from these four delicious UK bands, the LP was only released in the U.S., the makers probably knew why. I quote from back cover: " 'Made In Britain' - a hallmark shared by four bands signed to Polydor during the last two years. Backgrounds are varied, musical styles influenced by differing cultures and lifestyles, and yet they share a common bond...music of the highest quality. The Invaders, formed in West Yorkshire but more recently based in London, offer you tracks from their debut album, including their 3rd single 'Magic Mirror'. Described as "almost definitely the most melodic of all the postpunk bands" (Sounds); to the Invaders their music is personal & emotional, with its function being to communicate. Four lads in Bradford formed Excel whilst still at school , and their antics both on stage and off have won over club audiences throughout the country. Fun loving nutters or original popstars? - the music tells all. "Every once in a while, there pops up a piece of pop music which puts to shame the rest of that inherently genre" (NME). The Reception for 'Independence Day', second single from The Comsat Angels. The bazz about this Sheffield band almost drowns out the noise of critics clamouring to review their first album. Protex burst out of Belfast in 1979, playing a personalized brand of dynamic, snappy tunes and conquering audiences nationwide. The four teenagers have toured throughout Europe and even the East Coast of the States. They sing 'I Can't Cope' - we know different." - Brilliant compilation for all of us music maniacs!!

V/A - It Came From Slimey Valley 1984

Much of the early promotion of Nardcore came from Mystic Records, in Hollywood/California, its founder Doug Moody and Mystic Promotion Director Mark Wilkins. Mystic not only launched many bands onto vinyl, but also promoted the Nardcore scene as a whole. Another monumental compilation from the States and this one has quite a few cuts by bands making their vinyl debut. Cleanly produced from the Mystic/Ghetto Way and, like the COPulation LP, it contains a well-balanced mixture of thrash, punk, metal, and their permutations. Overall it provides a good introduction to current developments in the Southland. Marc Rude's grotesque cover art provides an additional bonus. - Jeff Bale (from Maximum Rocknroll #16, August 1984)

V/A - Hatelijke Groenten EP 1982

Nice compilation from Holland with lesser unknown bands. Released by Rood Wit Zwart Records. The musical spectrum ranges from lounge-punk to melodic stuff. A very interesting thing.

V/A - Bored Teenagers Vol.2 2001

16 tracks of pure, unadulterated British Punk Rock from the golden years of ‘77 - ‘82. This comp. delved ultra-deep into the archives to bring some of the best and rarest UK Punk singles ever, but also totally unreleased tracks by the likes of UXB, The Negatives, Knife Edge and Disorder making this one of the most essential items any Punk Rock fan could get his grubby little hands on. The makes usual put their heart and soul’s into this release - and once again both formats come with a great sixteen page booklet featuring liner notes written by the bands, pictures of the releases and ultra rare photos. "Sure, this could have come out years ago - we could have just bootlegged it and sent it out in a wraparound sleeve like all the rest of the money-hungry so called ‘fans’ out there. But we think the collectors deserve more - and we think the bands deserve more too - so we’re bringing this out 100% officially with the consent of all the bands involved. This is for the Punk connoisseur and the music fan alike - a blast from the past that still sounds fresh today. And ya wanna know the reeaaalllyyy cool thing?" You can imagine that this album was sold out quickly and this is not to say the quality on offer is poor, in fact on the contrary: the vast majority of songs here are excellent. Many rare tracks are showcased and this really is punk rock in its purest form: shoddily produced, home-made singles made by bored teenagers that still have a raw energy that encapsulates the very ethos of punk.

2.Identity Parade - DISORDER
3.Crazy Today - UXB
4.Over The Wall - UXB

V/A - Ungdomshuset (Live) 2005

Ungdomshuset (literally "the Youth House") was the popular name of the building formally named Folkets Hus ("House of the People") located on Jagtvej 69 in Nørrebro/Copenhagen, which functioned as an underground scene venue for music and rendezvous point for varying autonomen and leftist groups from 1982 until 2007 when - after prolonged conflict - it was torn down, and later also for its successor, located on Dortheavej 61 in the adjacent Bispebjerg neighbourhood. Due to the ongoing conflict between the municipal government of Copenhagen and the activists occupying the premises, the building on Jagtvej was the subject of intense media attention and public debate from the mid 1990's till 2008. This awesome compilation is originally released as a two record set on their own label and all tracks were recorded live @ Ungdomshuset between 1984 and 2003. The song selection is quite delicious: punk, hardcore, ska, electronic, obscure, acoustic - a rich variety of all styles are here to hear. Damn cool.
