...some more new records in for distro, lots of great stuff so definitely have a browse. Also I am trying to regain some room to actually move in my flat so I'm doing a sale over the next week or so....see sale items at the bottom of this post!!

AFTER THE BOMBS - terminal filth stench bastard - 7" - sjakk matt plater - £3.50
Hailing from Montreal Canada and with a title like that, I am sure everyone reading this knows what to expect:
dirty mid eighties metal crust with Deviated Instinct riffing. The pissed of crusty echoed Female vocals help bring SACRILEGE to mind. -

COP DE FONA - 7" - £3.50
"First 7" by this band from Spain - 8 songs of fast, raw, fucked up, powerful hardcore punk! A bastard of sounds from classic 80' bands round the world but without being copycats... rad!!! New Ep out soon on Yellow Dog. - YD" - www.myspace.com/copdefona

STRUGGLE - 7" - ebullition records - £3.50
In recent years those keen on historial revisionism have been repeating the mantra that hardcore punk was shit in the 90s. With tastes shifting back to many of the 80s sounds and previously obscure bands becoming household names, thanks to the mp3 revolution and subsequent arrival of a continuous stream of bootlegs/reissues, it's no doubt a cool position to take. It's also complete nonsense and it makes me laugh to see both kids too young to even remember being alive in the decade as well as those actually involved at the time fall in line with this new consensus. No doubt it will be revised once again in a few years to come when the older folks get their heads out of their asses and young people get clued up on the gems of the time.
The Struggle 7" is very much one of those gems for me. It originally came out in 1992 and even 15+ years after first hearing it, it still sounds totally fresh, powerful and inspiring. The 7" comes with a thick booklet containing lots of political writing, that definitely blew my then teenage mind, backed up by brutal blazing hardcore in the vein of Rorschach, Born Against and Downcast. If they ever do a KBD/Bloodstains/etc. type compilation of the 90s, the opening track "red, white and you" will no doubt feature. A fucking classic. - www.myspace.com/onesettleronebullet

ENDEAVOR - of equality - 7" - phye records - £3
Great 7" that originally came out in 1995. This band became really shit later on (their lp sucked and that was the last I heard, but I understand it didn't get better...) but in their early days they were great. Other stuff definitely worth picking up by this band is their other ep, the split 7" with Envy (japan) and of course the XXX comp. which features 2 of their tracks. File under blast from the past

ROT IN HELL/THE PROCESS - feas of tentacles - 7" - £3.50
A UK pairing on a beautifully designed and executed split. Rot In Hell’s sound like early Catharsis and the 90s Clevo influences are very apparent throughout, with Dwid of Integrity even making a guest appearance. The Process deliver one long track divided into two parts. The first is a slow heavy affair, building up to the release of the faster second. Being ex-SHANK/SCATHA they know what they're doing and execute the whole thing to perfection - www.myspace.com/rotinhellband
& www.myspace.com/theeprocess


POLLUTION - nasty d.n.a. - feast of tentacles - lp - £7
Despite Mark (Graanrepubliek records) telling me to check this out (as if I ever listen), this still caught me well off guard. I initially saw it advertised as "heavy dissonant hardcorenoiserock", a description that meant/did little to me... I don't know much about "noiserock"...but I do know my BORN AGAINST...and fuck me if that's not the vibe I totally get from this record. Pay attention punks as I get the feeling this might be one of those under the radar ragers. Seriously great stuff here. Sit up and take notice - www.myspace.com/pollutionpollutionpollution

GRUEL - 2xlp - £8.50
I started to type "heavy as fuck doom punk sludge from a bunch of up north punk bastards, reared on Sabbath, Corrupted and Amebix" but then I found this great review which really nails it... It's a bit lengthy, but fuck it, the songs are all 15+ minutes as well: ninehertz.co.uk/viewitem/3659 ! ...sums it up I think but in case you're still wondering...my verdict here at opiate industries headquarters?...punk as fuck and fucking amazing! - www.myspace.com/gruel23

NOMOS - demo 7" - deranged records - 7" - £4 - SOLD OUT
Demo 7" from NYC hardcore band NOMOS, originally issued as a run of 100 cassettes, now seeing a release on vinyl. Six songs in under nine minutes. Influenced equally by early 80's rippers like Poison Idea, Void, and Antidote and early 90's hardcore such as Citizen's Arrest, No Comment, and Infest. Recorded by Will Killingsworth at Dead Air Studios and featuring artwork and layout by Vincent Smith. MRR's review of the demo: "The first song on this demo, including its intro and how it sets things up for the rest of the song, is possibly one of the most perfectly written/executed hardcore songs I have ever heard. From the opening chord ringing out "Stand Up" style to the sarcastic-sounding ride cymbal hits near the end of the intro...f*ck, I could go on and I won't, but this song deserves its own review, bringing to mind CITIZEN'S ARREST and post-Disassembly Line CAPITALIST CASUALTIES both via the present in terms of songwriting, with abrasive shouted vocals, a scuzzy bass tone, a thick guitar sound, and everything recorded in the red for the perfect distorted grate." - www.myspace.com/nomosnyc

SLAVESCENE - 7" - deranged records - £4 - SOLD OUT
"Ex- CULT RITUAL offers up one hell of an introduction with two noisy hardcore tracks. Reminds me of a way noisy FLIPPER meets BORN AGAINST. For fans of CULT RITUAL and TOTAL ABUSE."

LOUTISH - total devastation - 7" - £4 - SOLD OUT
"Komplete Kanadian kång krieg! Finally, the nine track debut of CRUDITY/MOB 47 inspired Winnipeg råpunk hardcore titan LOUTISH! The original tests were rejected and master scraped- this re-mastered edition preserves every ounce of static integrity for you distortion maniacs: the noise, the speed, the harsh fury… it’s hard to believe this was recorded in 2004 instead of 1984!" - www.myspace.com/loutish

KNUSTE RUTER - var det bare en løgn - 7" - sjakk matt plater - £3.50 - SOLD OUT
I only got wise to this 7" when I saw it on Luc's Kangnave blogspot, being mentioned in his 'best of 2009' list and I am glad I did. This is one amazing ep. Classic 80s sounds Norwegian hardcore in the vein of Stengte Dører, Kafka Process and So Much Hate. You need it. - www.myspace.com/knusteruter
DISHONORABLE DISCHARGE - kept in the dark - 7" - sjakk matt plater - £3.50 - SOLD OUT
"The follow-up "kept in the dark" 7" by this Norwegian band continues where the debut "uskyldige mennesker sulter og lider" 7" on Vex records (US) left off. 5 Songs of raging, relentless, heavy-pounding, straight forward hardcore-punk in the scandinavian 80's tradition." - www.myspace.com/dishonorabledischargeoslo
