V/A - Halt! 2023

All right! Now, after a long time, one more selfmade Compilation is coming and there are songs on a certain topic that I don't usually do, but this time it was a need for me and it's quite possible that a second one will follow. It's about society & people, and I took thirty-seven killers which I like and think, they're fit. This manipulated society that is trapped in those systems and marches along tightly without following their own emotions and demands, that others hate because of a pimple on their forehead and let themselves be fooled every day and are numbed by the guidelines that are presented to them. Frightening & Incomprehensible this mass social control... I'm so sick of them! Certainly not just here but everywhere and I guess you know what I'm talking about, you see it every day. Anyway, this is my small contribution from the WDM Records headquarters with a lot of help by friends. Enjoy!

PENETRATION - Race Against Time 1979

Fuckin' cold outside so let's get hot with this charming slab, released via Clifdayn and on Side A are Demos 1977-Jan '78, the other live @ Newcastle Dec '78-Oct '79. Penetration is a punk rock band from County Durham, England formed in 1976 by Pauline (vocals), Robert (bass), Chaplin (guitar) and Gary (drums). Chaplin left in March 1978 being replaced with Neale, and second guitarist Fred joining in July. The band dissolved in late 1979. Their debut single, "Don't Dictate", is now acknowledged as a classic punk rock single and their debut album, Moving Targets (1978), is still widely admired. They played a lot of gigs with coole bands, released two albums in the seventies and a few singles (Life's A Gamble) and 1979 they toured Europe, the US and Britain but the grueling schedule began to take its toll. A disappointing reaction to Coming Up For Air, the second album, was the final nail in the coffin of the original band. After the band split in October this official bootleg comes out as last farewell document. They re-formed in 2001 with several new members. Cool record in every way.

UNIPLUX - 1981 2016

Late in the evening and while I ripping vinyl a quick post in-between and we visit Rome and meet Uniplux which formed in the early 80s. Before disbanding in mid 80s (the band will reunite later on and continue up to these days) Uniplux released two 7"s. Both records are very hard to find and sought after, mainly because Uniplux offered a unique vision of melodic Punk Rock. While at the same time heavy and melodic, the sound of Uniplux always carried along a certain dose of melancholy, notably underlined in their lyrics and dramatic vocals by two different female singers that sang on these two 7"s.

Incredible but true, but your fave label discovered an entire unreleased punk rock album from the land of spaghetti and mandolino! Uniplux were one of the few bands of 1977 roman punk scene that included bands such Trancefusion, Elektroshock, Luxfero, Ulster Punk Group, Apologia Di Reato, Bads, Stigma, Ddt. This scene is well documented on the magnificent Claudio Pescetelli’s book “Lo stivale e’ marcio” (rave up books 2014) that talks about those pionieristic days. This band released two singles, the first, released for a major label RCA and entitled ‘Chi Siamo Noi?’ came out in 1982, the 2nd one Maledetto Rock, (Pogo Records), came out two years later in 1984. both records are very hard to find and sought after, mainly because Uniplux offered a unique vision of melodic punk rock. in 1997, a bunch of european punk collectors compiled Killed By Death #201, dedicated to Italian 1977/82 punk rock scene, selecting the track “U.X.” to represent this band. After over thirty-six years, RaveUp Records unearthed from the tomb eleven killer tracks amazing Italian punk with female vocals, for fans of Generation X, Buzzcocks, Penetration and all early UK punk rockers, limited to 500 copies!, first 100 on orange vinyl!

PENETRATION - Life's A Gamble 7'' 1978

Named after a Stooges song Penetration were formed late '76 in Ferryhill County Durham by three friends Pauline Murray, Robert Blamire and Gary Smallman after seeing the Sex Pistols in Manchester. They played their first gig in October 76 @ the Middlesborough Rock Garden and played their first London gig at the famous Roxy Club in January 1977 supporting Gen X. This first gig in the bright lights of London was less than fondly recalled by Pauline "We spent a fortune getting down there. We thought it was great. Then when we got there it was such a dump. I don't know what we were expecting but it wasn't quite that." They re-formed in 2001 with several new members. Their excellent debut single, Don't Dictate, is now acknowledged as a classic punk record and their debut album, Moving Targets (1978), is still widely admired. Heavy touring in 1979 and another album 'Coming Up For Air', but no real commercial success found Penetration in internal disharmony. So here's their third single with two nice powerpop/punk songs and listen also to an awesome live goodie on the rare British Underground compilation.

V/A - British Underground 1977-1982

Subtitled as the Best of the UK Punk New Wave. Well, this lies in the eye of the beholder or? Anyway, this small flame is the first Volume of this Mini-Serie and this unofficial release was comin' out on Chaos Wrecords in 1982 and it's full with a decent mix of both music styles. I realize there are a lot of UK comps and this is of course for me great, I love the early UK sound and I'm always fascinate when I get a copy of a record which is brand new, even when I know the songs. Minus points for the loveless design, no inserts, no info. So check the following orange button for details. Was bleibt?, a decent platte with cool and varied stuff. But € 50,- I wouldn't pay for. Have fun with this, Aloha!!
