Hardcore Punk singed in Spanish is the music that this band from Equador offer us in 15 songs.Good recording and a folded cover sleeve with pics and lyrics complete a nice tape work.
I already posted the number 1 and number 2 of this very little yet very interesting fanzine.It was made by Pablo and Lara of Resistance Productions,and as they called it, it was a fanzine made by punk parents for punk parents.
Compilation with bands of the first wave of Italian heavy metal.I guess it came out in the beginning of the 80s but I am not completely sure. Bands included: Exile,Ryan,Thunder,Odds,Powergame,Axe Hero and Skanners.
There are no info about the bands in the cover-sleeve,neither the address of this tape label.
This tape by Cosmonauts Hail Satan is not listed on their Discogs page.
They play a weird hyper distort slow punk on a base of hypnotic minimal rhythms, cut ups, loops and field recordings creating a perfect soundtrack for your best nightmares.
Fratelli Randelli was an anarcho-punk band from Cuneo(Northern Italy), they were active at the beginning of the 90s playing a furious form of HC punk recalling the classic Italian bands such as Negazione and Wretched. This tape offers us the live recordings of two gigs, one for an action against the army in Cuneo and another one at the squat Torre Maura in Rome both in 1993. It was a benefit for "The Anarchist Laboratory" of their hometown and it seems that was released in 1995, no idea how many copies were distributed but I am pretty sure this is hard to find nowadays. The recording is not the best yet deliver us their fury as a live band and their strong political ideas. To complete my introduction I am going to attach here the translation of their message of the cover-sleeve, big thanx to Babs for the translation. Also, you`ll find here a slide-show from my youtube channel. As far as I know, this is unreleased on the net. Chaos ,not Music. ps-this tape is unindexed *f*a*r*a*w*a*y* click me
"[first line missing….]
But the reasons that led us to engage in these live concerts are quite different… First of all, the idea to form a band and play gigs around was born with the aim of financing projects and realities that reflect affinities between our thoughts and way of acting. That’s why we decided to start by expressing our solidarity, in this case with economic support, with two realities which are very close to us: the anarchist magazine GAS, a self-produced paper, and the anarchist self-defense committee. So the money you give us tonight, apart from a very little contribution (a very little one) for travel expenses, will go to these two realities as a proof – certainly not only one concerning money – of our sincere solidarity. Secondly, as you can see from the lyrics printed on this leaflet, we want to play gigs also to be able to stimulate certain emotions linked to Hard Core, which is increasingly becoming a ‘music genre’, while it’s losing its rebellious character and is being sold to the most unbelievable fashion lunacies. To be short… we like it this way… we hope our words and sound energy will provide some of you with points for reflection… but our words will remain just words if they don’t lead to action. For revolt."
‘Don't read odes, my son, read time-tables: they're more exact. Unroll the sea charts before it's too late. Be vigilant, don't sing. The day will come they nail lists to the gate again and paint marks on nay-sayers' chests. Learn to go unrecognized, learn more than I:
how to change your district, passport, face. Be skilled in small betrayals, the dirt of daily survival. Useful are the encyclicals for making fires, the manifestos: for wrapping up butter and salt for the defenseless. Anger and patience are needed to blow into the lungs of power the fine deadly dust ground by those who have learned much, who are fastidious in their ways, by you.’
This is a bootleg on tape of the legendary Test Dept,a band that made history in the industrial scene and needs no introduction.
Two gigs ,one in Sheffield at Leadmill on 08/12/1983 and another one in Retford at Porterhouse on 10/12/1983,this last one seems to be a mono recording.
About this label: Records Tapes Design was a small tape label from Holland yet this one is a copy made by some Italian pirates in 1990 and it was limited to 300 copies.
As overall the recording is pretty good especially thinking that is a pirate copy of a bootleg.
Only for Test Dept fans... p.s.-this tape is unindexed
