Bagger/Lieselotte–Bagger/Lieselotte-(Sorry Records-Switzerland-1999)

Amazing split vinyl with two Swiss bands from the crust punk scene of the last century. Bagger used to make performances with fire and masks while playing their furious HC punk. I think they were involved with the Schrottbar in Biel.
Lieselotte plays a violent form of grindcore mixed with HC punk...I spoke about them when I posted their Split tape with Pakita.
This record comes with an 8-page booklet with graphics and lyrics(all the relevant scans included here). 
A great vinyl for people into violent music with positive ideas and attitude.
Enjoy it.

Lieselotte-Live/Pakita-M.S.1.-(Split Tape-Self Released-Switzerland-1998)

Split tape with two very different acts, on one side Lieselotte from Switzerland and on the other side Pakita from Spain.
There is not much info on the cover sleeve although from the few info I can guess a few things.

Lieselotte plays a fast and angry HC punk with political lyrics sung in French language, just 2 lyrics reported on the cover sleeve, it is a live recording of their gig held on 24/02/1998 in an antifascist festival in Neuchatel(Switzerland).
 Although recorded live the overall quality is pretty good, I imagine their live shows must be really powerful.

Pakita seems to be a one-woman project from Spain. She plays a rather violent form of noise industrial made with machines, echos, effects, feedbacks and filtered vocals,
this session was recorded in her "cave" in August 1998 and the recording is awesome.

Other than this info I am not sure if this tape was self-released and where it was released, I guess in Switzerland.

This is definitely a tape both for people into HC punk and Industrial Noise.
Enjoy it.

v.a-Positive & Dead Negative & Free-(Gurteliertapes-Switzerland-c90-1995)

Another production by Gurteliertapes, this time the number 7 of his catalogue, Pille named this sampler "Positive & Dead Negative & Free" and it is a 90 minutes cassette with different styles and lots of bands/artists as usual in his extravagant type of releases.
Quite an eclectic compilation mixing many different music styles (strange pop, violent grindcore, noise industrial, weird folk and more, you name it)!
I wrote already about this label and you`ll find other productions here.
Enjoy it.

v.a.-Punk Is...More Than The Government And Fashion Controlled Record Stores Offer-[Vol 7]-(Resistance Prods-Switzerland-c90-1993)

Another compilation of the series Punk is... a series already covered in this blog, as well as the label Resistance Productions managed by Lara, Pablo and FTS were active for 7 years releasing lots of stuff(7inches, tapes, zines, leaflets...).
As far as I know, Pablo started another label called Strongly Opposed when Resistance Prods ceased to exist.
It was compiled in June 1993 by Pablo! Songs ordered by Lara(of Örmaal Records) comes with 24 half sized page booklet with bands contributing a page each with lyrics, artwork etc., unfortunately not included here.
A good anarcho-punk compilation!Lots of good bands, political messages and good recordings.
Enjoy it.

Professionally recorded and with a nice cover sleeve reporting few info and lyrics this is a very good cassette for all the "metal/crust-heads" around the world.

CALHOUN CONQUER-Lost In Oneself-(Aaarrg Records-Germany-1989)

Excellent album by this Swiss band playing a very personal form of tech-prog-thrash metal.They formed in Zurich in 1987 and disbanded in1993.
Professional musicians, great recording, nice graphics, and lyrics...the mix to become big was all there yet they never became famous and quickly disappeared only a few years after this pure gem, sadly.
Aaarrg was a German label founded by Alex Thubeauville in the mid-80s and now inactive.
For all the fans of Voivod and Young Gods.
Enjoy this masterpiece.
