V/A - Metropolis 3LP 1980

I've decided to post some compilations for the holidays that I have a while and now as little gifts throw out for you; I think the start yesterday was not bad but it goes still better. Door #25 is a three record set from the Finnish label Johanna with bands who released their slabs there, partly only on this record, and musically there is something for everyone: solid '77 punk, weird rock'n'roll, a little surf twist, in short: forty-two nice melodic Christmas carols for a harmonious togetherness... is not that nice?

BRIARD - Miss World 1983

Briard were formed in 1976 and released a couple of 7''s in the late 70's & they were the first band who released a punk single in Finland and after the 4th Rockin' On The Beach 7'' on Love Records they soon after recording split up. In 1983 the original line-up made a brief return, as they recorded their debut album Miss World in Finnvox Studios. And the result are thirteen crashing Punk'n'Roll numbers with english lyrics and all tunes kicks hard ass. The singer I really like him because it reminds me a lot of whiskey drinking, hahaha.. After that, Briard's story was over for good. Then Pete Malmi went solo, Sidi Vainio played in Päät, Shadowplay and Seitsemäs Maailma (and later concentrating on academic studies), Andy McCoy and Nasty Suicide made an international career in Hanoi Rocks.

V/A - Hilse 1979

The Hilse record was the first Finnish punk compilation and it really has all the important punk bands of the late 70's on it. A LP that everyone should have in your record collection. There are many simple reasons, the song 'Just Like Eddy, I Hate Teddy' from KOHU-63 is awesome, 'Ketään Ei Kiinnosta Mitään' by Pelle Miljoona 1980 is crazy & weird, the Beatles cover (Sensuuri), Briard & Ratsia tracks are killers etc. etc....all eighteen songs rock decently how we all like & know Finnish PunkRock (this is the CD version with eleven goodies from Hilse II). Enjoy!!!!

V/A - Bloodstains Across Finland 1996

I dedicate my bloody nightmares the right soundtrack with this compilaion of rare Finnish punk singles (1977-1979) and nothing is more unpleasant to them. With twenty-three essential punk rock blasts I arm myself for the fight against the everyday demons, throw the razor-sharp 7Inches at them and cut their heads off, nobody can hide... I find all of you and after almost forty-five minutes, I'm the winner, Yeah! You think tomorrow will be better for you? Never, because I have the best weapon: Punkrock!! - No matter what you do, it will always end the same. You must know: 500 copies pressed on black vinyl and on some copies one side of label is completely white, while the other side is black. Amen!

BRIARD - Chirpy Chirpy Cheap Cheap 7'' 1979

Rare third 7Inch on Love Records by this Finnish Heroes with two cover songs I think. They released their first single in November 1977 and split up two years later. They come together again and record their only album Miss World in 1983 and again in the mid 1990s. Nice realized and perfect party music.
