SCAT OPERA were a four piece funk metal band formed in 1987
in London, UK, by Ernie Brennan (vocals), Steve Yates (guitar), Michael
Forry (bass) and Mark Diment (drums). They recorded several
well-received demos before picking up prestigious support slots with
Faith No More in the autumn of 1989. Though comparisons to that band
followed, in truth Scat Opera played at greater velocity and with more
precise musical definition. The pieces, however, were not entirely in
place until they signed a contract with Music For Nations in the spring
of 1990. They made their debut a year later with "About Time", recorded
at Slaughterhouse Studios and produced by Colin Richardson. Michael
Forry left the band and was replaced by Leicester’s REV HEAD John
O’Reilly. A UK tour as support to GAYE BYKERS ON ACID ensued, before
returning to the studio (this time Windings Studio in Wales) with
Richardson for a second set, "Four Gone Confusion", to be released in
October 1992. Again the music incorporated elements drawn from funk
(particularly apparent in bass player O’Reilly’s slapping technique),
jazz and metal. After the band split, John O’Reilly moved back to
Leicestershire to co-found DEADLINE with ex-METEORS Austin H. Stones,
then FUDGE during the late 1990’s.

A compilation tape received at the beginning of the 90s from Milan Duric
or from Sasa Multinovic, sorry I do not recall well. It is all about old bands active in the 80! Most bands play punk rock, a good sampler to know the lively punk scene of the Yugoslavia.
"The gig in question: Earth Citizens/ Pszychisz Terror/ Duckwind, The Queens Hotel, Scunthorpe, Saturday 25th May 1991
Two 'punk' bands from Switzerland, Pszychisz Terror,
apparently, refused to open their luggage at customs and got turned
back. "More Cider!" was Fritz, EC's guitarist's refrain between each
song: Dry cider - the drink of the Gods
he had just discovered and proceeded to drink to excess! Slotted in
well with the locals.
Duckwind was a band formed from members from local psychedelic band Duck
In Fog in order to play Hawkwind tracks; this included
Col Spence on bass, who played in Terminus and was also a member of DIF
before joining us - and Mick Hare on drums, obviously a Terminus
drummer - Rocky, also played guitar in DIF before playing in Terminus
for a short while, and vocals would have been Graham
Davis - DIF's vocalist." (Mark Terminus)

A compilation dedicated to Lowell City in Massachusetts (USA).A double cassette exploring the various angles of the music scene coming from this city. Very ecletic, it offers to us some rock, a hint of punk, a few excursions into folk and country and some experimental tracks touching the electronic music and the avantgarde.It is worth reading the introduction by David Perry,which I am including here.Enjoy it.
Tony
Kennedy born in Glasgow in 1966, is the founding and now only remaining
member of the jazz punk band BADGEWEARER championed by John Peel among
others. Earning critical acclaim from many quarters including single of
the week in the Melody Maker and numerous other international accolates.
He turned down Jelo Biafra's Alternative Tentacles label to remain with
independent Glasgow label Gruf Witt, releasing over a ten year period: 4
Lp’s and 6 7” singles. In the meantime teaming up with Pakito Bolino
and Caroline Sury as part of the Marseille art collective Le derniere
Crie to form the art noise phenomenon MUG, who performed at festival
Mimi as well as being invited to record a Peel session. His last
performance was a live improvisation with legendary CAN singer Damo
Suzuki in Edinburgh. Badgewearer then became a solo project,involving
collaborations with dancers, poets and writers.He
currently plays one of the three basses with the new Mexico based
Albuquerque band Tiny Americans, with former members of 3 Mile Pilot and
Truman’s Water, specializing in live film soundtracks. Which has led to
his most recent collaboration with the Rotterdam based video artist
Marit Shalem.(from his official webpage)click me
The Circle was recorded and mixed at 'H.O.M.E. Studios' (on Daz's combined amp/twin cassette deck) March 1988 while Sic Syke was recorded and mixed on the Brougham Road 4-Track during the long and hard (finarr finarr!!!) winter of 90/91.
To
make this post more informative I have asked his old mates to write
some info about Daz. Unfortunately, he left this world very young. This
post is dedicated to his memory and his excellent music. Big thanks to
Mark for introducing me to such a great artist, to PJL for digitizing
these old tapes and his nice words, and to his family for giving me
permission to post his tapes here and on my Youtube channel.
Darren Lloyd (or - like every guy given that first name - Daz to his mates) first appeared on a stage in March 1985 as guitarist in The Demised, a band he'd co-founded in his native Scunthorpe the previous year. That band revised and expanded its line-up shortly afterwards, subsequently changing its name to Declaration, but made no serious headway before breaking up in April 1986.
Over the following couple of years Daz released three cassettes: 'Bill of Rights', 'Stand Up and Be Counted', and 'The Circle'; each was a genuine solo effort with all vocals, guitars and bass by the man himself (the title of an instrumental on the second tape - "Wot No Drums" - was based on a common reaction to his approach of those who'd heard its predecessor). Daz also popped up at a number of local gigs during this period armed only with his guitar (and voice) in a Billy Bragg stylee, but all of this was only half of the picture.
While a stint as second guitarist with established Barton band Aki (soon after Declaration's split) didn't work out, Daz subsequently remained a member of Terminus for long enough to appear on the first of that band's generous handful of records. He also joined the 'enigmatic' (and mainly studio-based) Scunthorpe outfit Murderous Musicians, while a friendship with London-based punk band The Apostles (initially kindled through the post) led to a series of visits to their Hackney HQ - and an 'exchange visit' by the band's Dave 'LAMF' Fanning to Scunthorpe to appear alongside Daz (and former Declaration drummer Pete) in a one-off outfit named after the beloved Monty Python skit, The Piranha Brothers.
By the early '90s Daz had moved to London, maintaining his association with The Apostles by recording a fourth tape - 'Sic Syke', now complete with drums! - at their HQ (with Dave supplying cover art, and fellow Apostles Muzz and Andy providing percussive assistance); it seems that Daz and Dave also reassumed their Piranha alter egos on occasion. Over the next few years our contact was scant, limited to when our paths happened to cross during Daz's visits to his family in Scunthorpe, but his permanent return home in August 1997 seemed to hold much promise - for one thing, it seemed that a 'reunion' of the Murderous Musicians was being discussed before he'd even had the time to unpack his cases.
Instead, Daz's relocation to Scunthorpe was followed only a few weeks later by his tragic death; he was days short of his thirty-first birthday. He is still, and will always be, remembered fondly by friends, regarded highly by those who'd shared a stage with him at any point, and much missed by all who knew him. Rock on, Daz.
45 minutes self released cassette by this German band playing a sort of goth rock mixed with darkwave, active in the early 90s, this is their first production, they released another tape "Solemn Fears" in 1993!
The recording is pretty good and the cover sleeve reports songtitles and a few info. Enjoy it.
