The next interesting slab on this Tuesday evening brought us Mystic Records and is far and away the most collectable release on the label. Aryan Disgrace was a short-lived Los Angeles combo with six members and they made a splash with their only 7Inch. The most disgraceful aspect of this record is indeed its lyrics which are very provocative. The song is about a guy who keeps his homosexuality a secret from his family and thus gets into trouble, while the flip is about extraordinary S&M enjoyment. Musically two decent short tracks and in 1983 a censored version came afterwards with different lyrics, and of course it's debatable whether there's any point in singing about such topics. But there are no taboos in Punkrock I guess, and I wouldn't call the band homophobic or worse and take them not too seriously, it's a rare record and very much sought after by collectors these days and on relevant Compilations as well.
