RELATIVES - Uncle Theo Comes To Visit 7'' 1979

Another nugget from my Wanted-List and let's move to Australia, the home of The Relatives. They released two 7inches at Red Ash Records and this is their first one with three shiny punk goodies. Not much info about them but who needs fuckin' words, sure is this EP is damn rare and I don't know who sent this in...egal, who cares! Take it or leave it.

UTANGARÐSMENN - Geislavirkir 1980

April, in the far north, back to Tomanien. I love the Scandinavian Punk Culture and I would like to introduce you to another classic: Utangarðsmenn (The Outsiders) was a Icelandic punk band, they were active from 1980 to 1981, outside a brief return in 2000. The band was composed Bubbi Morthens, Mick Pollock, Danny Pollock, Magnús Stefánsson and round Erlingssyni. The band’s only studio album, "Geislavirkir" (Radioactive), was released in November 1980 and has since become a classic, sung in icelandic & english. On it the band runs through guano rock ditties such as “Hiroshima”, with catchy chorus. The band was, along with Fræbbblunum, one of the most punk rock band in the country in 1980. In 2001 came out a collection record released by Bad Taste. A special album from the far north island underground. Essential...really. B.t.w. one more Iceland Punk stuff on the cool PhoenixHairpins blog. Get this too.

V/A - Bloodstains Across Spain 1997

I finish the month of March with this pretty compilation of bands from Spain. In this country, we were happy to host and I can recommend anyone to visit this land. There's a lot historical to see, pleasant climate, people who talk like a machine gun, delicious food ... and finally cool music. Reliable and rare material from the early 80s is impressively cobbled together and for me one of the best Bloodstains records. I think no more than 500 copies were pressed - Anyway, sit back and enjoy!!!

V/A - Compilation N.E.1 1981

Sunderland Musicians Collective, mostly recorded at Guardian Studios, released by Guardian Records N' Tapes shows this nice litte record what's going on there. A good mix of punky and wavie tunes which only appear here and not anywhere else. Don't know much about the Sunderland area but the sound of the city is quite cool and amazing that I can't find a typical UK smasher ala G.B.H or so on it. I guess, life is more melancholy and quiet as in London, it's here no different. Enjoy the music and dig in!

THE SMASH - Patricia 7'' 1984

Two sided-Killer 7inch now. The members of Smash played from 1980 to 83 in the band Road Rats, than changed their bandname to Smash and released this great and forgotten Powerpop-Punkrock Single. Recorded in 1984 by A.C. Vogel at the famous Sunrise studio, the two songs carry the typical 70's Swisspunk sound, like Sperma or Chaos and a good "splash" of the Undertones. Unfortunately their only record but what a Smasher!!

CHRIS BRAUN BAND - Chrisbaumbrennt 7'' 1981

This rare record was released on CBS Records and it's presumably one of the better recordings from this german combo. Chris Braun Band were founded beginning of the 70s in Dortmund and they made this kind of music which is called 'krautrock', I'm not really a fan of this and their first album came out 1972 where punk was still in deep sleep. I think, we can take it as 'noted' but this litte piece of vinyl here is quite cool. Two solid wave numbers with a pinch of punk, nice tempo and good lyrics and a woman's voice that rocks convince me and it's worth a listen. Fine...okay...jajajaja!

NECRACEDIA - Now I See Clearly 1991

Well, I kinda tired to post more, feel empty and burned out but I need to do something else, otherwise I go completely insane. Lucky for you. In the short silent time new material came in and asap will this appear here in this cinema.

But today one more old post by a great punk band hailing from Pittsburgh. Necracedia were active from 1986 until 1992. Their debut EP Fight For Change was released 1990 in Viesly/France by Bad Card Records and you got four cool punk songs and a track at the end which isn't noted on the tracklist, but you will now how it named. In 1991 they released their only full length album on WreckAge Records and this is a Killer with twelve classic punk numbers, like their debut the band not lose their hardness and this album is powerful and aggressive and the snotty vocals are just awesome. Hell, I love this voice!! America have many cool punk bands but this 4 piece combo deserves your attention and I hope you'll find at least how great they are. 'I Wanna Leave This Sick Machine', classic mid-tempo punk and I see clearly now (!) and you'll do so well.

V/A - R...Is For Records! [Special] 2015

A long, very emotional day comes to an end and I'm pretty exhausted. Besides, I'm fucking tired and I close the post marathon today with one more selfmade compilation. I tried to pack 6½ years and my current feelings in thirty songs and it was not easy but I think the result is delicious and I'm very satisfied. At this point I would like to thank all those who continue to send me music, fine and rare postin' (Hello KBD!), all those who leave a comment or otherwise support me. Life's a Bitch! Tomorrow can be everything different. Remember that. Our time is too short for wasting life. Enough words, music is the language which understands the whole world, so let's go and Good Night!

ZOUNDS - The Curse Of Zounds! 1982

The ultimate vacation holiday sound, emotional, aggressive & always with us, our # 1

We love the curse of Zounds. They were part of England’s late-’70s/early-’80s anarcho-punk scene; friends of Crass, they released their debut EP on the latter’s label. Though they released a number of EPs and singles, they only managed to put out one full-length album, The Curse Of Zounds, before disbanding in 1982 (they still active again). This collection includes everything the band ever recorded. There are plenty of tough, taut punk tunes here. An album that never gets boring after the first listen as I feel with some other albums and so the CD is once every week in my player, includes all scans which I get from Mr.Waggon. Cheers to you, my friend!!!
