INCONTROLLADOS - Hvem Vil Det Gavne? EP 2001

The now defunct Incontrollados started out as a two-piece from Svendborg in 1999. After playing a few shows Lasse was recruited to sing and soon after recording the first demo-tape and releasing a couple of songs on the SPAND BZ compilation, Johan O.D. followed to complete the line-up. In 2001 the 2nd demo-tape was recorded and the band made a deal for a 7" with Kick'n' Punch Records. After returning, the band continued gigging, rehearsing and writing some of their best songs. But people were breaking their backs on the band and everything collapsed during a show in Odense where the bandmembers got in a fight between eachother on stage. The band left stage and broke up right after. This EP contains eight short leckmichamarschgoodies and gotta kick your ass.

AUS 98 - Alles Fällt 7'' 1983

This rare 7Inch was released via Ausklang Records and is the only record by AUS 98, the predecessor of Circle of Sig-Tiü with two great songs, both were later new recorded for the Feuer+Asche album in 1985. The a-side is a typical fast track as the band are known for while the flip is a gloomy five minute number, suitable for funerals or similar occasions, very cryptic. Anyway, a cool record and really timeless.

THE FLYIN' SPIDERZ - s/t LP 1977

Eindhoven formation begins in 1976 as rhythm & blues band, closely related to the British pubrock. In 1977 the group switching to punk. The Flyin' Spiderz is the first Dutch punk band that appears on plate. In the early days the band is affiliated with the Dynamite label and booking agency of the European independent pioneer Pieter Meulenbroek (Sky Dog). The single 'Down', with a cover design by Joost Swarte, is never released. The group plays in 1977 as opening for The Damned in Paradiso. Sky Dog goes over the head and the band gets offered a contract with EMI. The debut album contains aggressive rock & roll, which is more like the music of pre-punk band as Count Bishops than that of the Pistols or The Damned. The Spiderz touring extensively throughout the country and arouse their energetic show and punk image especially in rural bewildered and sometimes aggressive responses. 

1978 the second album 'Let It Crawl' came out and goes more into rock. From the moment bassist Van Vugt is replaced by Jan Snep, remains messing around this time equivalent. One year later a third album called 'Birthday' was planned but was not released because EMI terminates the contract. Roadie Bart Brouwer joins as a keyboard player in the band, which moves the band into a more melodic. The band recently called in to The Spiderz and brings the 'Pressure' album out on WEA.

The fourth record 'Lines Of Lust' goes towards new wave. The group is expanding its field successfully to France, including appearances on TV, in Gribus Club in Paris and at the Festival of Montreux (July 13th). In England, the group in the schedule during the British tour of Iggy Pop. The British bassist Walter Langdon replaces John Snep. A new mix of I'm Yours Tonight appears on single with a guest role on keys Manfred Man.

After releasing the 7inch 'The Test' in 1981 the band broke up.

So this debut album was released in 1977 and is the first Punk LP by a Dutch Band and it's pretty fantastic. It's apparent in the music that this was a pub rock band that adapted quickly to the new punk sound spreading it's filth across Europe. "These four erratic Dutchmen, led by rhythm guitarist/singer/songwriter Guus Boers, put forth solid, Stonesy punk just a hair better than a hundred others of like mind, threatening to turn derivation to their advantage but never quite succeeding. Neither album shows more than fleeting signs of excitement, and neither has better than perfunctory production." Check more Spiderz on the Killed By Death #F.U.2 and Killed By Epitaph or other essential compilations.

I'm a bit limply so a quick post today with Mottek, originally founded as a hardcore/punk band 1981 in Hildesheim and they released two pretty albums in the eighties and in 1990 they change their sound and became more metal on their last album Fatal Violence (Sucker Records) which is a solid record with nine Trash attacks. Wanted by a friend and now finally there. Thirty degrees today and after three coffee I'm still not fit, maybe a Jever helps. Do something beautiful wherever you are, Aloha!

OBERKAMPF - Couleurs Sur Paris 1981

Let's wring the neck of french Rock'N'Roll with Oberkampf from Paris. Formed 1978 by Pat Kebra (guitar), Joe Hell (vocals), Buck-Dali (bass) and Dominik Descoubes (drums). After the first single release Couleurs Sur Paris in February 1981 Oberkampf signed a record contract with Musidisc Records, where the first album P.L.C. (Plein Les Couilles) was published in 1982, followed by Cris Sans Thèmes in 1985, shortly before their provisional dissolution. In 2000 the band founded again and recorded the 2003 album Animal Factory. The band is known for its anti-nationalist attitude, which included the fact that the band burned the French flag during a live performance and that their song La Marseillaise was accompanied by pig grunts, as did their call for resistance against state institutions in Couleurs Sur Paris. In this file you will find the Seule La Musique A Le Droit D'être Meurtrière compilation published by Remedy with twenty damn great biscuits, a grandiose cross section of their sound.

SIEGER 1957 - Regen Über Tokio EP 1982

The releases from the Bremen based label Heimat Records are always interesting. Musically, they move between early German Punk, NDW or experimental stuff and sure some redundant records including. I like the label because they set not specifically in one direction such as AGR or Weird System did, rather they gave bands from Bremen and surrounding areas the chance to put their music among the people. They wanna stay small and nowadays Heimat plates are extremely rare and precious. If I can catch one, I don't hesitate. About Sieger 1957 there is not much to tell. A few members were active in AGM, the best punk band in Bremen, and this is their only release. Three tracks you like or dislike. It starts with a reggae tune, sax-intro and lapping comfortably forward. No real Punk cracker at all but nice playing as well. 'Aufstand In Der Badewanne (Riot In The Bathtub)' attracts the pace and is a nice two minute NDW/Punk goodie. The last one 'Europa' is the best for me here, much music like an instrumental and good lyrics about living in our narrow Europe. Check it out!

C.T.T. - Destruição 7'' 1981

Amazingly hearty debut by C.T.T. (Conjunto Tipico Torreense), a Portuguese rock band which was formed in Torres Vedras in the early '80s and they have two albums and a few 7Inches recorded. The a-side is an awsome 2:32 mid-tempo goodie with nice guitar and delicious organ while the flip is plainly reggae influenced and good as well. The band split up in 1994 and maybe I have another as an encore ready.
