DAILY TERROR - Aufrecht 1984

One more classic German punk record is this here and I would say one of the best & important German Punk band was Daily Terror from Braunschweig. I can only recommend to buy their first two albums wherever you find a copy. Both are milestones!! Powerful punk rock, catchy & briskly, excellent drumming, fat bass, snotty guitars and offensive lyrics against all odds. Despite the fast tempos and rough vocal delivery to be expected from a band of this type, Daily Terror are well capable of crafting a memorable tune, a feature that distinguishes them from many talented deutschpunk combos. Musical-craft impeccable raw politically minded musicians. Daily Terror was formed 1980 out from the punk band Bombed Bodies. Their first single was released at the Hannover label No Fun Records. The band moved to the Berlin label Aggressive Rock Produktionen (AGR) and in 1982 they released their brilliant debut LP "Schmutzige Zeiten" and they played on the Chaos-Tage in Hannover, which they earned a high popularity in the punk scene and quickly became one of Germany's most respected and popular bands. Two years later their second album "Aufrecht" followed. A few copies were released with a colored cover and a 12 page printed lyric booklet, goes without saying that these are highly sought after. Singer Pedder died in April 2009 after cancer, so R.I.P. my friend and thank you for your inspiration & great music. If you want more Daily Terror stuff feel free and visit In Memories Of Daily Terror blog and enjoy your ride there. Essential!!!!!

DAILY TERROR - Gefühl & Härte 12'' 1985

 

With their third album, Daily Terror have reformed and moved away from aggressive D-Punk and don't hit any new formula with a new line-up, but rather changed their sound to more melodic songs which are more emotional but not a bit quieter: Gefühl & Härte (Feeling & Hardness). And that's exactly what is brilliantly implemented in the five songs and I like the record from the start. Pedder's voice is a bit muffled as usual and the lyric sheet is a big help. Released again on Aggressive Rockproduktionen (AGR) and I think they have proven once again with these recordings that they belong to the upper league of D-Punk and were incredibly important for the scene. At least for me they have given me a lot of good times and help me through dark phases that I had to overcome, and I will sell their records when I get Alzheimer. Daily Terror is always a good choice when you're feeling down and gives you much breathing room. Enough for today, let's go straight to Larz and watch the SGE versus Bayern (Hans, I haven't forgotten you). Enjoy!

V/A - Der Tollschock Sampler 1989

This one's for Uncle Joe by request and I own the record for a long time but it's one I must sell off, needless to say why. Well, this is one of the first releases of Pedder's (R.I.P.) label Skan Productions which he founded end of the 80s and there are not many stuff published there but a few bright moments and this first compilation is one of them. More than half of the songs so far unpublished and the fourteen tunes are a healthy mix of Oi!, Punk and Psychobilly and a beautiful ballad on the end. Cool title, nice artwork and all lyrics/infos inside.... needs to be hear loud!

DAILY TERROR - Deutsches Bier 12'' 1989

I always like to listen to the following band from Braunschweig, Daily Terror, who have had a strong influence on me and whose first two albums (click orange words above) everyone should know and belong to the best in this country, in my opinion, and extreme important for the German subculture were and are. Three goddies on this 12Inch and released on Pedders Skan Productions label. The second formation after the glorious era of the early days pay tribute with this slab to a pleasure beverage for which Germany is famous all over the world, BEER! "We don't waste a word about cheap imports. For us there is only one pure or none", mean Pedder (vocals), Helge (guitars), Achim (bass), Micha (piano/drums) and they're damn right (I already have one next to me). So welcome April and hopefully spring too, Prost!

DAILY TERROR - Andere Zeiten 12'' 1999

Always welcome are Daily Terror from Braunschweig, today with their early recordings. The first three from the BS-Punx EP (No Fun Records,1980), #4 appeared on the essential compilation Soundtracks Zum Untergang (AGR, 1980, tracks 5 + 6 originally released on the compilation Hannover Fun Fun Fun (No Fun Records, 1980) and the last three were originally released as Klartext EP (AGR 1982). The idea for this had the small Bochum label Dirty Faces and they packed lots of information, liner notes: Pedder † 11.04.2009, in the booklet with all the lyrics and a complete discography. You can clearly see here the rough sound, the offensive words and the pure anti-attitude of the band which they continued brilliantly on their first two albums. For me one of the most important German punk band whose music invariably infects you, if not go home.

V/A - Keine Experimente! 1983

In the early 80s there existed two essential labels in Germany, Aggressive Rockproduktionen (AGR) from Berlin and Weird System from Hamburg and numerous classics were published on both, while the Waterkants devoting more to the bands than AGR in terms of artwork, limited colored vinyl, lyric sheet, royalties, etc.... but both were significantly involved to give German punk socially acceptable in this country and over and above that. It wasn't as big as AGR, but their early releases count today as important cult factor. WS also became more interested in American bands from the mid-1980s and tried to give new musical impulses, great slabs were licensed and relevant contacts with overseas were created as well. Keine Experimente! was the third release and German bands were asked to send their demos with a bit of basisinfo & lyrics and the result is this fantastic compilation with largely exclusive songs, many became famous afterwards and are still among the best bands in Germany, no wonder that Vol.2 had to follow a year later. Enough Bla Bla, enjoy the old Gassenhauer and a relaxing Pentecost.

DAILY TERROR - Schmutzige Zeiten 1982

Yesterday, the election for the Mayor in Frankfurt was held and the privilege of democracy gives me the opportunity to vote and of course I was there but I don't give a damn about politics, stupid rules, ridiculous bureaucracy, ambiguous decisions, who needs that anyway? Nobody! We need a place to live, in freedom & with our rules. And with the sound of Daily Terror we come a bit closer to Anarchy. Their debut album was groundbreaking for me and is still a damn classic record: direct, offensive & emotional: Klartext! packed in fourteen anecdotes. Pedder (vocals), Ebbi (guitars), Heiko (bass) & Frank (drums) recorded this brilliant slab. Their first vinyl appearance was on the legendary Soundtracks Zum Untergang compilation in 1980, followed by the BS-Punx EP on No Fun Records and finally the deal with Karl's label Aggressive Rockproduktionen brought us four essential irreplaceable albums. After AGR many more slabs were recorded but I find no access and lost interest. Well, I keep the band as an important part of my life in my heart and don't get tired of enjoying their early statements. As well need their second album Aufrecht from 1984. Deutsche Wertarbeit, can't call it anything else!

V/A - Kiss This! [Special] 2016

The 930th post belongs again to a superb selfmade compilation which I made in August but there wasn't enough time to post it before because my flight was very early and I was almost too late. Once again my heartfelt thx to all who send me awesome and rare music, particularly Fredrik, Reinhard, François, Nolti and Drago, and without your help this would't possible. Brings me always joy to sit then here and put the nuggets into one BlastKillerLullaby, also with the artwork. I think, this baby is well done and I guess, you like it too. Complaints and claims please to the hands of my neighbors. I wish an entertaining pleasure and comments and recognition are welcome.

D.R.I. - Live @ CBGB'S New York 1984

This brings back a lot of memories. In the early 80s I listen to a lot of Metal stuff because I was a Metaller with all my heart. I leave this style when I came in touch with American Hardcore bands like Black Flag, Circle Jerks, Bad Religion, Dead Kennedys, Warfare (UK) etc.... so also with D.R.I. The Hardcore sound was an integral part in this scene and then more and more concerts took place I rather visited of course those gigs as Megadeth or Anthrax. 1986 then D.R.I. live in my city, together with Holy Moses (ARRGGHHH!) and this show changed my lifestyle completely. I will not say that they made me a punk because I've also heard some German punk bands, EA80, Slime, Daily Terror, OHL for example, but they were rarely present live as the ami bands. I would say my interest in metal was deleted this evening, First-class performance with pogo till the shack crashed, unforgotten. Who ever saw a D.R.I. gig can attest to this. A little info:

D.R.I. (Dirty Rotten Imbeciles) is a crossover thrash band from the United States that formed in Houston, in 1982. The band currently comprises founding members, vocalist Kurt Brecht and guitarist Spike Cassidy, as well as drummer Rob Rampy and bassist Harald Oimoen. D.R.I. never gained a mainstream audience, but the integration of their hardcore punk roots with thrash metal influences was a stylistic catalyst for their contemporaries - most notably Suicidal Tendencies, Corrosion Of Conformity and Stormtroopers Of Death - alongside whom they are considered pioneers of what would later be called "crossover thrash." They have released seven original studio albums, the last of which was released in 1995. Since then, the band has continued touring and intermittently going on hiatus. In 2004, D.R.I. released a web-only demo track "Against Me", their first recording in a decade. For years, there has been talk of an eighth D.R.I. album, which has yet to materialize.

The first three albums are all terrific and as '4 Of A Kind' came out the music was too monotonous to me and I lost interest. I love more the rapid, wild aggressive sound and here on this CD are all their hits. Forty songs in Thirty-Nine minutes. A Must Listen!!

V/A - U-Boats Attack America!!! 1986

The Hamburg based label Weird System used to release songs of their records in a limited number of colored wax version (often limited to 1000 or even less) for our overseas punks. In the beginning the records were hand numbered too. Normally the records numbered higher than 1000 are in black vinyl. So this limited compilation licensed to and released by Flipside records in the U.S. only. A kind of Double Label edition. This American release showcases the greatest hits, as it were, of the label. All the bands here are still big ones in the german punk culture of the early 80's and serve up a series of blistering HC and punk cuts mandatory for those who don't have the original German recordings. Excellent, varied sampler. Weird system still exists today but it is not any longer that innovative Label it was in the early years. Today they focus on the re-release of old classics and a lot of compilations but on a very high level. Sad but true but they nearly stopped to release something fresh material. Last for this month, now I'm leavin' home to join the soccer match vs Dortmund.

V/A - Soundtracks Zum Untergang 1980

Start today, in my opinion with the best German punk compilation ever: the first release of the Berlin label AGGRESSIVE ROCKPRODUKTIONEN (AGR). Full with rare stuff from bands which release a lot of good records and on this vinyl are seventeen hits! Offensive, hard, very good lyrics, straight to the point and a good artwork. Some idiots bothered by two dittys and submitted an application for indexing and got right.... the plate was removed and all other releases were with beeps accompanied (MCF #1 and Slime #6), so simple subculture was then dismembered. Well, the uncensored are rare and expensive, but every damn penny worth. Two years later Volume 2 comes out with more new German bands, more hits and it's, without question, also great, Deutsche Wertarbeit!

V/A - Tollschock 2 1991

Today was sunny so we need the second compilation on Pedder's label Skan Produktions with more bands which partially appear for the first time on vinyl and all fifteen songs are exclusive and unpublished (status 1991 of course). The creative individuality of each band speaks for itself and, with all its diversity, fits into a provocative and homogenous whole. Pogo Ist Trumpf my Friends! A perfect continuation to Tollschock 1 in my opinion. All scans included.
