KRIEG UND FRIEDEN HEUTE Über die Zwistigkeiten, Handelskriege usw. zwischen den USA und dem Rest der Welt, die Budgetstreitereien der EU und das Säbelrasseln bzw. die Kriegshandlungen rund um den Globus. Ich stelle fest, daß es offenbar einen Bedarf nach so einer Pinnwand gibt, also hier ist sie.

Although The Star Club (more Beatles references, haha!) had been active since early 1977, Hello New Punks from 1984 was their first studio album. Granted, that was after a live album and a load of 7“es. Most of the songs on this album are still mid-tempo punk rock, but sound a little less adventurous than on their early 7“es (especially Club Take One had some interesting shit IMHO!). Also the sound is tougher, and Hikage's voice is kind of nastier than before . […]

After changing their name back from Gai in 1985, and releasing their first tape as The Swankys, this is their first vinyl, also released in 1985. These songs are still pretty close to Gai's style of ultra distorted and fuzzy raw punk, in fact several songs were lifted straight off Gai's Damnation cassette. My version is not the original, but a pretty recent bootleg. Get it!

The title of this 7“ compilation pretty much says it all: a raw punk compilation, bands from Shikoku, released in 2004. Of course, the mighty Disclose are the best known band on this comp, but Micro Film, Godfree Ho (what a great name!), Circle Flex, Nonsense Human Project and Conga Fury are no slouches either. This is a raging comp, distorted, fuzzy and wild. Btw: the name Shikoku normally translates as four provinces. But the way it is written on this compilation translates as... […]

Feel The Core Of Self was Forward's 2nd 7“, released in 1997. The a-side is a heavy, rocking, mid-tempo stomper, while the flipside is raging smasher, both with Ishiya's choking vocals and wild background chants. Hot! So get it now!

Like their debut flexi 7“ from the year before, this 8“ from 1986 has three tracks of melodic, mid-tempo (and on the last track somewhat melancholic) punkrock. For some reason the a-side -“Unaffected Nation“- starts out with the wedding march as its intro, and the b-side's catchy opener -called „To Hell“- has some chants of „Oi! Oi! Oi!“. A nation unaffected by weddings? To hell with Oi? Is that the meaning of this? I guess not. […]

This 8“ flexi from 1987 was released as a promotional item, and as you can guess from the title, it contains old live tracks from 1978. I enjoy this one more than their later stuff I've got, even though their -ahem- influences are extremely obvious here. Through the -sometimes charmingly out of tune- guitar wall you can easily make out the Ramones, Heartbreakers, New York Dolls et al, one track also sounds a lot like Anarchy's Not Satisfied. I don't care about the music, either.
