V/A - Underground Hits 1 1982

Und da wir schon bei Samplern sind ist das Teil hier absolute Pflicht!! Die dritte compilation auf AGR Records ist eine zweigeteilte Scheibe, Side A mit deutschen Bands und ich kann wohl behaupten vier der besten hierzulande mit vielen exklusiven Stücken, Arseholes und Chaos Z sind der Hammer, während Side 2 ausschließlich Ami-Bands serviert. Leider liegt meiner Kopie kein Insert bei, GRRR... obwohl ich die in den 80zigern gekauft habe. Scheiß Spiel. Egal, die Scheibe gehört für mich zu den Klassikern und man kann über den Macher von AGR denken was man will, die Platten die er rausgehauen hat sind alle durchweg fantastisch. - First part of Underground Hits on AGR, brilliant song selection, first-class record, if you see this, a must buy! Volume 2 is a bit weaker in my opinion but has exclusive tracks from Spux and Canal Terror, get it!

KJØTT - s/t 12'' 1980

Weekend, YEAH! Soon soccer comes but it's a litte time until then so let's visit the north of Europe: Oslo! The bands music style is punk rock and the lyrics where in norwegian and that's Kjøtt, a short lived band which existed from 1979-1981 and the absolute innovation, which meant that time to sing snotty texts in Norwegian, make the five during the short time of their existence to one of the top punk bands from Norway. Singer Helge Gaarde sounds hysterical, the music is rough, melodic and pretty cool. Kjøtt change with screeching tires the tempo and a small infatuation with two-tone shades. I added one from the 'Hue Uten Sanser EP' and three cuts from the 'Op. LP'. So enjoy this classic pearl from the vikings and say hurray!!!!

DER SCHWARZE KANAL - Der Endgültige Abschluß Des Erdgasröhrengeschäfts! 1988

Der Schwarze Kanal was a nice combo from Hamburg, active in the 80's and was named after the East German "Propaganda" television program with Karl-Eduard von Schnitzler. The band released only one album (one of the first releases of L'Age d'Or), which is now almost impossible to get and was dissolved under dubious circumstances. Recorded & mixed March to September 1988. I bought the record in Hamburg when I did my community service that time. The label L'Age d'Or writes: "The band, who always had bad luck and only after resolution of the renown that would have actually earned during their lifetime, but this is it, US-brachialguitar meets European songwriter tradition." Nine pretty cool songs for everybody and a rougher version of 'In The Park' can be found on the rare Vorwärts tape compilation from 1987.

V/A - Wargasm 1982

This record is one more nugget in my opinion. Thirteen songs against war. I think it was the first release about this theme. Except the Dead Kennedys are all bands from the UK. The music here is a special mix of punkrock with keys, orchestra & old school. To me the Poisen Girls track is fuckin' brilliant, the strings intro, the slowly driving up to the proper rhythm is famously, I get goosebumps...huh. Also Captain Sensible's "Hey Jo" is a killer too. After The System on the 1st pressing of this record is a hidden track by The Insane. It wasn't supposed to be included & was deleted on later pressings. A great sampler which is unequaled on Pax Records.

1.Continent - THE DANSE SOCIETY

2.Tapioca Sunrise - FLUX OF PINK INDIANS

3.White Coffins - CANKER OPERA

4.Kinky Sex Makes The World Go Round - DEAD KENNEDYS

5.I Hate War - RAT SCABIES

6.Statement - POISEN GIRLS

7.Hey Jo - CAPTAIN SENSIBLE

8.The Kill - MAU MAUS

9.Victory For Poland - ANGELIC UPSTARTS

10.Their Decisions - THE SYSTEM

11.Fight Their Wars - THE INSANE

12.Power - INFA RIOT

13.Wargasm - QUITE UNNERVING

HATE CREW - Silent Rage 1987

Also this band is completely underestimated in my opinion and deserves more attention. Hatecrew were founded in 1985 by four old friends and all played in other bands but they wanted to do their own thing. So after a few gigs and cuts on tape compilations they released one record on Punk Etc. with thirteen decent hardcore smasher. One of the albums that I exchanged for other plates, I'm not really sad about it but after hearin' again I must say maybe a little. Anyway, it's a good production with a cool info sheet within and their last vinyl output is found on the Threshold compi. - Lend them an ear

CHAOS Z - 45 Jahre Ohne Bewährung 1995

When this new album of my favorite band from Stuttgart Chaos Z was announced that time, I was absolutely excited. Ohne Gnade, the hardcore masterpiece from 1982 on Rock-O-Rama (the best record of this label) was an eternity ago and everyone knows that the band is now called Fliehende Stürme. 45 Jahre is complete written & recorded by Andreas Löhr, brother Thomas unfortunately died during this time, and has the fresh energy of which other bands of the 90s can only dream about. Critical statements packed in thirteen hits. As far as I can remember, the CD was released first because otherwise I would have the vinyl, 100%ig. As a small bonus, I added the two goodies from the Punkinvasion II compilation in this file. Now I have to open a beer... Salute!
