Many thanks to all that has kicked me down music that I have been looking for. Nice to know that there are alot of very kind folks out there that will take the time to help someone out when all you know them is from the iternet. Special thanks goes out to Longy who has kindly helped me out with loads of stuff. Appreciated mate, even though you support the wrong club. Same goes for S! over at 13th Floor Vendetta (who has not been active of late). It just stokes me out to hear something that I have been obsessing over or just wanted to hear. Thank you.

Which brings me into 2010 and here we have Leatherface once again plying their trade. Well what can I say???? This is the best stuff they have done since The Last....The Stormy Petrel is worthy of your time folks. Seek it out and buy it!!!!!!!

Christ On Parade-Sounds Of Nature

Oakland hardcore 1985. Much more influenced by Crucifix than The DKs.....They were a stalwart of the punk scene from around 1985-1989.....brutal stuff here, much different than alot of my other stuff. Noah from COP would go onto play in Neurosis too. COP have done some reunion shows here and there. Enjoy

Now For My Political Rant!

I have noticed alot of political extremism in my country lately. Alot of hate and alot of intolerance by others.. Let me explain. I am a liberal....so liberal that I am a borderline socialist. I believe in live and let live...I believe in hearing someone out and making intelligent comments and having HEALTHY discourse. I graduated with a Poli Sci degree and I understand history and politics, and realize that during times like these...the crazy people come out and man have they. I am nearly a socialist but also believe in free market to a degree (that folks, is a moderate) and for me I straddle it at times. On the day of the Oklahoma City Disaster anniversary, I am looking back and shaking my head. You see, in 1998 my band was on tour with Peter and The Test Tube Babies and one of our tour stops was Oklahoma City. When we drove into Oklahoma City I wanted to see where the building was blown up. We did see it....As we passed, the van fell silent. We all knew the story behind the vacant lot...It was blown up. The next year we passed through with our band on our first solo US tour...again we passed by and a memorial had been erected. Again silence....Silence because of sorrow for those that lost their lives.....Fast forward to 2010 and now we have a rise in "patriot groups" and the Tea Party. Our Govt. has propped up the banking system due to Bush's BS deregulation and we have a health care system that will have the government helping flip the bill. What we have had is death threats, African Americans in Congress being spat on and being called N******!! What The Fuck is that. We also have malitia's sprouting up again...What are they going to do....fight the US Army???? Crazy folks. .......Hey lets start a militia and all ten of us will start a revolution....sure.....Unfortunately each day it seems that there are more sprouting up to defend "us" against the Federal Government. I love the folks from The Tea Party...what a bunch of wacks. One comment that I heard on tv was a women, and I am paraphrasing here..."The Fed's do not have the right to spend money on things that I do not want them to". Ummmm did you take any Govt. classes in school. You vote these folks into office and they make decisions for all of us. Get a fucking clue fuckwit, you pay taxes for the good of our Nation. Our taxes pay for many things....not just what you (self important cunt) wants. I believe in dissent....But healthy dissent. I also believe in respecting others....what I have seen from the right and the far right is utter contempt towards others that do not believe in what they want.


OFF OF MY FUCKING SOAP BOX!!!!!!!!

This Goes Out To All The Good Commentors and Those About To Be Good Commentors!!

Folks, as much as you see other blogs asking for folks to comment, I want to wade in and ask for the same. Doing this is a pain in the fucking ass. At times I would love to just fold this up and say Ba-Bye! But I keep telling myself to just keep going. Besides, where is our poor ole Angry going to post stuff at anyways???? He is the Dave Vanian to my Capt. Sensible....Me being the clown and Angry being the serious music lover spreading the word out to all. WE both post alot of stuff and it is alot of work. Think about it...writing something about a release, posting pics, reviews, heads up on new stuff, etc. It is a pain in the ass to do. For those that don't know, I have a interview coming from my friends Charles and Dave from San Jose from their band called Executioner....Dave was very kind enough to spend some time answering many questions abou their history. They were MY Discharge, Broken Bones, English Dogs, Abrasive Wheels, and Motorhead, but also like a little brother band of Crucifix.... A great story that will be quite lengthy but a great read nonetheless. They have a release coming out on Patac Records and I ask all of you to buy it! More to come!!!!!
Ken

Oh.....and who can tell me where I got the title of this post from...The Winner will get a request up in 24 hours if you can tell me. It also has to be something that I have...or maybe Angry's!!

CD Presents Up and Running Again..Good or Bad..Dunno. It Depends On Who You Ask

Well well well....CD Presents are back in business. I thought something was up when I saw The Avengers "Pink Album" was re-released. I was browsing Apples iTunes when I came across The Circle Jerks live at The Fillmore in 1982...(just to let you know, The Fillmore was called The Elite Club during that time). The reason I was looking for The Circle Jerks is because they have recorded a smoking version of The Slave by The Germs. So here is what I lifted off of CD Presents Facebook page and the releases scheduled. Pretty damn cool me thinks.

In 1979, David Ferguson co-founded CD Presents as a concert promotion company. Ferguson's concert promotion career took an important turn when he was asked to produce West Coast shows for Public Image Ltd. during PiL's first two American tours (1980 and 1982). The 1980 show in Southern California proved not only a memorable event in PiL's career:“At the Sex Pistols' farewell shoot-out in San Francisco two and a half years ago, history hung in the air the night Public Image Ltd. came to Los...

Mission:
David Ferguson founded CD Presents as an independent concert production company in 1979, notably producing Public Image Limited’s 1980 and 1982 West Coast tour stops. To the benefit of music history, Ferguson recorded the most legendary shows CD Presents produced, from Bad Brains to Black Flag. Ferguson transformed CD Presents into a powerhouse independent label and recording studio in 1981, eventually recording, releasing or distributing the music of nearly 3,300 bands. CD Presents continues as an active label today, poised to open its vaults to punk fans of all generations, much of the material being released for the very first time.

The Offs were approached by an erstwhile drummer who did not meet the standards of the band's musicianship, however they asked him to design the record jacket. His name was Jean-Michel Basquiat. Rarely has the excitement of a recording been matched by the visual art that accompanies it. As Glenn O'Brien wrote in his long-ago article about The Offs' First Record debut: "I recommend this album unequivocally. It's on the metaphysical funk Top 40 chart with a silver bullet.""The Offs could be America's greatest unknown band." --Glenn O'Brien, Andy Warhol's Interview Magazine, 1985.The Subhumans/ Incorrect Thoughts:The Subhumans, along with D.O.A., were the Co-Godfathers of Hardcore Punk Rock. The depth and the power of their performance is equaled by the universal impact of songs like 'Slave to My Dick.' The Subhumans' distinctive Canadian point of view is expressed exquisitely by their punk classic 'Let's Go Down to Hollywood (and Shoot People)'.Each song on this early 80s studio album packs a non-stop Punk-Power-Punch.True West/ Hand of Fate:True West, along with Redd Kross, The Bangles and Mazzy Star, led the Paisley Underground scene throughout the 80s and re-united in 2006 to perform internationally. The band and Producer Gary Hobish crafted a shimmering gem of an album at CD Studios. Now available in the digital domain for the first time.Classic album from the Paisley Underground, unavailable since 1987. Re-mastered at Skywalker Ranch.Tuxedomoon/ Live at the Savoy 1981:Tuxedomoon, on the eve of their extended residence in Europe, performed in San Francisco and recorded a powerful survey of their early 1980s' repertoire. This album was mixed at CD Studios in 1986 by a young and upcoming Engineer named Sylvia Massy, who later went on to fame as an Engineer/Producer with Tool, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Johnny Cash, to name just a few. In 2008 the tape was mastered at Skywalker Ranch. Tuxedomoon casts a haunting spell throughout the recording that vividly puts you in a front row seat for their otherworldly musicianship.Vintage 1981 Tuxedomoon performance on the eve of their European era.Twisted Roots/ Twisted Roots:Soon after Paul Roessler concluded his extensive touring with Nina Hagen, he recorded the second Twisted Roots album at CD Studios with Producer/Engineer Gary Hobish. His piano driven vocal stylings lend a quirky and personal tone to a beautifully crafted recording of timeless charm.Unavailable since 1986re-mastered at Skywalker Ranch.Various Artists/ Rat Music for Rat People Vol. 1:The album that introduced American Punk to a new generation (1982)--not least of which was a young Kurt Cobain, who claimed to learn to sing by lip-syncing to cuts from this album by Black Flag and Flipper while he was still in High School. Virtually every band on the album went on to worldwide fame and influence. It is a non-stop replication of the time when every band on the bill, at often half-filled concert halls, would play their hearts out for all the other Punks in town. Those were the days when a Punk audience was mostly made up of other band members--an audience that had not yet viewed Punk as a fashion statement. The variety of musical styles mirrored the diversity of the audience. If you close your eyes and listen closely you'll be able to feel what punk was like when all were welcome and no one quite knew what lay ahead.Fasten your seatbelts! Punk Blasts Off!1. DOA "America the Beautiful"2. DOA "Fucked Up Ronnie"3. FLIPPER "Life"4. CIRCLE JERKS "Live Fast, Die Young"5. BAD BRAINS "How Low Can a Punk Get?"6. BAD BRAINS "Don't Bother Me"7.

THE WHITE LIE "Postcard from Dachau"Various Artists/ Rat Music for Rat People Vol. 3:As the 80s progressed, the Punk sound turned more and more in the Metal direction. Bands like Corrosion of Conformity went on to huge, mainstream-Metal success. To this day the Adolescents carry on the tradition of these bands for a powerful and disciplined Hard Rock sound. This album was recorded and released in 1987, just as a new evolution of various genres of Metal took the lead in the Indie/Alternative music culture. CD Presents, never forgetting its commitment to musical diversity, included Mojo Nixon and Skid Roper's bright yellow love letter to Nancy Reagan, amongst the twang of Heavy Metal on all sides.Punk opens the Metal door...1. DI "Ballroom Blitz" 2. DI "Going to Lebanon"3. CORROSION OF CONFORMITY "Bound"4. DOGGY STYLE "Janitor Man"5. RAW POWER "We Shall Overcome"6. ATTITUDE "Big Time"7. NAKED RAYGUN "Rocks of Sweden"8.

MUTANTS “Furniture”14. TUXEDOMOON “Jinx” 15. SNAKEFINGER “Picnic in the Jungle” Various Artists/ Savoy Sound Wave Goodbye:The best of the San Francisco Avant-Garde music scene, in the early 80s, that inspired both visual and performance art. Some of the bands, such as Tuxedomoon and Snakefinger went on to worldwide fame. Others remain a trifle obscure, but are worth the effort to explore their performances.Art-Punk in San Francisco, 1981.1. TUXEDO MOON "Music #1"2. TUXEDO MOON "Jinx"3. SLEEPERS "Zenith"4.

False Prophets Request


A request for False Prophets Implosion album by Sedated. Well I have to admit that I have never heard them before except for their appearance on the NY Thrash Comp. that Roir put out in the early 80's. I never paid much attention to them and that is my loss. Since finding this, I have went out and found the rest of their releases. If you like hardcore with imagination, flair, and a penchant for writing great songs that are a little out of the hardcore norm, then this is for you. I dig it. I can remember seeing pics of Stephan (singer) in MRR back in the day with these LONG finger nails...always thought that was odd. George Tabb who wrote for MRR for many years was their second guitar player and played with them for some years. They had a term for their music along other bands like Letch Patrol, Roach Motel, etc. and I cannot remember what it was called. Oh well....Here ya go Daz!

Angry's Springtime Collection



Here we go again....... Decided to throw another compilation together. I tend to like downloading compilations from blogs as I rarely make them for myself but am always making them for others. I just always like to hear other peoples idea of what songs should compliment each other and hopefully find some new great tracks that I am unfamiliar with. Hopefully others around blogland feel the same way. 33 people downloaded the last one so I guess it is worth it although very few comment...... Hope you enjoy this one and as always with my compilations even though it takes forever everything is tagged properly and volumes are all leveled off using Nero Express.
