V/A - Springtime In Belsen 1998

Today is compilation day and the next record is a Bootleg in the vein of KBD. Eighteen early worldwide punkrock goodies here and I must say most of the songs can be find on the legendary Killed By Death records so therefore, in my opinion, this plate is not really essential. I mean, if you should you see this for a decent price then take it, no question about it but not for horror totals as it circulates currently. Ach scheiß was drauf, I have an extreme hangover from yesterday's gig and realize again that I'm not getting younger, haha.. Your old sacks of you know what I mean. Well, the sound here is cool, the song selection is okay and a small step into the weekend. I guess, I hang around for awhile at home today and relax with my technique shit. Good Night!

V/A - Life Is A Joke Vol.2 + Extra Album 1986

This post has been requested and I don't know who asked, anyway; sixteen bands from ten countries, this international compilation is the second one from the Hamburg based label Weird System series Life Is A Joke and I mean, the first record is the best from this. Here we have well known bands mixed with exotic stuff (Cyan Revue) and bands which don't interest me further. Don't get me wrong, this is a "nice" album and worth listen but when I think about the Keine Experimente comps. this serie looks a bit scarf. No matter, remarkable is the first release which was published in a limited edition as a double album with a gatefold sleeve and called "The Extra Album" and it's fuckin' rare and it's on board. In the end a good record but far from a classic.

1.Countdown - BLUT+EISEN

DRAHDIWABERL - Lonely 7'' 1982

"It was always my goal to make Drahdiwaberl the most extreme and obscene band and I think we did that!" (Stefan Weber) - Drahdiwaberl is a politically oriented band, which was founded in Austria by singer Stefan Weber in 1969. The name is derived from the Viennese term for a roundabout. In the early years the band was in the first place a cover combo and interpreted music of bands like Led Zeppelin, Rolling Stones and The Beatles in German. In the mid 70's they wrote their own songs. During this time, the first demo tapes were released. Their first official appearance was in 1972 at the University of Vienna. In 1978, Falco comes into the band. A year later they were on the amazing punk compilation Wiener Blutrausch on Schnazz-O-Phone/Tonau Records for which the band contributed three songs. A lot of gigs followed and the first records were released on GiG Records. 

Musically Drahdiwaberl are difficult to classify. This is due, among other things, the ever-changing band line-up. Already in the first years their songs were distinguished by a high degree of individuality, although the band almost exclusively lectured cover versions of famous rock & roll pieces. Through the bizarre mixture of jazz and blues many cuts were barely recognizable. In the 70s, they devoted themselves with their political and aggressive lyrics to punk rock, instrumental during this time were deliberately distorted and poorly tuned guitars and the more restrained use of the drums. The left-leaning lyrics of the band related work across the years almost always to current political events, always with a touch of cynicism and black humor. Issues with which the band continues to set apart, include racism in Austria, the Red Army Faction (Baader-Meinhof Group), the FPÖ and George W. Bush. Drahdiwaberl was primarily known for their live performances.

Weber emphasized always wanting to do something for the public, so that it would entertain. So the band decided to accompany their performances with a flash show, often ended with home bans and sanctions by the organizer.

On this superb 7inch is with 'Lonely' a nice rockin' ballad and the flip is an interesting cover version of the 60s classic 'Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Honolulu Strandbikini'. Two cool tracks I like.

PVC - Sykebil 7'' 1980

Started out as a punk band from Oslo/Norway which was active in the early 1980's. The band consisted of Rune Martinsen (bass), Jørn Loe (guitar), Hans Christian Andersen (drums), Nils Petter Jensen (guitar) and Svein Dahl (vox). Their debut 7'' Sykebil on Plæstik Records was basically almost the joke to expect - the group had one song in their repertoire, the second they made in the studio. None the less - the circulation of 500 items went out before the year was over. In autumn came the next 7-inch "Galehus" and their lyrics here are quite critical about church and advertising. Here with Bitten Forsudd on vox. The following year came the first of the band's two mini-LP "Emile Berliner" and if anyone has this album then sent it quickly please. After this they had some major line up changes and became more electronic new wave/post punk. PVC's last sign of life came in form of their final 7-inch called "Who's That Man" at the end of 1982. So here'e their debut record + the Galehus 7''. A total of four run-down KBD Smasher and the right sound to salut the coming weekend.

RAMONES - Sheena Is A Punk Rocker 7'' 1977

Classic stuff now by the Ramones (R.I.P.) and from their 3rd Album 'Rocket To Russia' this 7inch reached # 81 in the Billboard Hot 100. Sheena is a Punk Rocker was written by lead singer Joey Ramone. The lyrics is about a young outsider who does not like other teenagers visited nightclubs because she is a "Punk Rocker", crude, wild and sexy. Like 'Rockaway Beach' is 'Sheena Is A Punk Rocker' one of the most popular and famous songs of the Ramones. It was - according to 'Judy Is A Punk' from the debut album - one of the first pieces of music which had the dominant genre term "punk" in the title. I Don't Care is a three chords and minimal text composition and is a song which was originally recorded for the first Ramones album, moreover one of the very first tunes that the group had ever written. The Ramones were an American rock band that formed in the New York City neighborhood of Forest Hills, Queens, in 1974. They are often cited as the first punk rock group. Despite achieving only limited commercial success, the band was a major influence on the punk rock movement in both the United States and the United Kingdom. I think you need no further info about band & music. Ramones are minimalist and melodic "Three Chord PunkRock" with humorous and absurd lyrics. So this copy is the german edition.

THE WORK - I Hate America EP 1981

You can say what you want, avant-rock, industrial music or whatever, I say this is a real punk record, pretty chaotic and pretty low-fi noises celebrate this oblique three piece combo. The Work were founded in 1980 by multi-instrumentalist/composer Tim Hodgkinson and guitarist/composer Bill Gilonis, with bass guitarist Mick Hobbs and drummer Rick Wilson. They experimented with tape collages which led to the creation of an independent record label, Woof Records and a band. Enlisting the services of Mick Hobbs and Rick Wilson they formed The Work and made their first recording, an EP "I Hate America", released on the Woof label. The band toured Europe in 1981 and 1982 and recorded their first album "Slow Crimes" in 1982. After a tour of Japan later that year and releasing Live in Japan, the band split up. In 1989, The Work reformed to record "Rubber Cage" and performed throughout Europe between 1989 and 1994, releasing another album "See" in 1992. This stuff here is amazing and they show how simple it is to bring weird noises in a dissonant harmony. That sounds contradictory I know but the art is to make it sound accordingly and that's why I love this record so much. There exists a few tapes with live material and if someone can send me a copy I would be grateful. Until then, enjoy this potpourri of funny music.

P.I.G.Z. - Bloody Belgium 12'' 1978

A essential record comes right now from Belgium. The P.I.G.Z. from Kortrijk, who played a lot with The Kids & blew them regularly off stage (at least that's what the old punks from Kortrijk claim). Three tracks from their one and only record, a 12", cos it's so damn rare (their only other output is two songs on the 'Punk live, First Belgian Punk Contest' compilation album). It's from 1978, the tracks are in a different order than the labels say & it came in an originally white paper sleeve that had the Pigz name glued on it & was further hardcolored with some black. In 1978 the Pigz also participated in Humo's RockRally, Belgium's most important musical contest for upcoming bands, set up by Humo magazine. Anyway, here we have enough rough KBD punk rockers from a band which was really too short active.
