GENTE CON PERRA-Gente Con Perra(Not On Label-Germany-2009)

Gente con Perra means People With Female Dog.
This is not a band but just a "one-off project"  realised with fun by some friends living together in Bremen(Germany)-one of them being Mexican therefore the name in Spanish language.
As they write on the spartan cover sleeve of this tape: "This is a direct recording celebrated in our living room on 17th Feb.2009.It is  not a demo tape, it is just the recording of a moment, don`t be disappointed."

I am not sure if they ever distributed this cassette, maybe they made few copies to give away to friends. They play nice electro mixed with a bit of punk,some metal and more crazy stuff with female/male vocals. Not bad at all, especially thinking that it seems it was kind of improvised...

Enjoy it.

HUE & CRY-Ridiculously Masculine-(Self Released-Usa-2004)

Hue & Cry is an all female trio playing furious HC punk with political lyrics often with subjects  releated to women issues/sexism/anti-  macho politics.They remind me a lot of the Riot Girrls movement born in the end of the 90s.

If you are into the music of Bikini Kills,Tribe 8 and similar bands then you`ll like this demo.

 Well recorded and with a cover sleeve reporting  the lyrics,this demo is  a good one..

Enjoy it.

ANIMAL FARM-Demo `89-(Self Released-Italy-1989)

Animal Farm was a band hailing from Naples(Southern Italy) and playing a very violent form of thrashcore.This demo offers us 4 tracks very well recorded, good lyrics and few info on the b/w coversleeve.In the last track the backing vocals are provided by some members of Randall Flag.

For all the lovers of thrash metal and crossover metallic HC punk this demo is a killer. 

Enjoy it.

I.F. COMIX-(Fanzine-Graphic Novel-Working Press-UK-1990)

This is an amazing graphic novel by the very well known artist Graham Harwood, an internet page about his stunning  work is here.
Harwood and Stefan Szczelkun set up the 'Working Press' (books by and about working class artists) in 1987. During his involvement with the Working Press Harwood produced the UK's first computer generated graphic Novel in 1990 'If Comix Mental' (a Gulf war satire).

Incredibly enough Working Press was based in St.Agnes Place,a road/community all squatted(about 22 houses) since the late 70s and evicted with a massive involvment of the army and riot-police in 2005.

Big thanx to Graham for giving me permission to post this excellent graphic novel here.

Enjoy it.

ASHES TO ASHES-Museum Of Dust-(Incense-France -1994)

This is what I believe to be another project by Cyril Herry,also involved in Exotoendo, Lecanora, Ninth Desert.
I guess this is the same artist behind Anywhere Out Of World compilation and the fanzine Le Journal Des Ruines.

This tape contains some symphonic dronish/atmospheric music.

There are 5 different tracks listed in the cover sleeve, but the music itself is just one long piece; so I decided  not  to cut it, but I left it as one "21 minutes flow" of piano/organ symphonic goth-like stuff with noises of pouring water and some vocals. The cover sleeve is in part made of wall paper and has a very nice small picture on the front.

It was recorded in Lausanne(Switzerland) on May 1994.

Enjoy it.
